I know a lot of people don't like them, but they did make a major contribution to popular culture. I think the three song writers in the band wrote some classics.
here's my top ten
the long and winding road
I am the walrus
Penny Lane
Strawberry Fields Forever
Back In The USSR
And I Love Her
I Her Standing There
Nowhere man
In My Life
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
BEATLES SONGS

Ahhh memories
Walkabout, Wigan, some years ago
Beatles tragic band on stage, couple of lads, may have been enjoying alcohol responsibly, watching from the bar.
*Paul McCantsing "Any requests Wigan????"
"Owt but the f*cking beatles mate"
Band leaves stage right.

Even as a Wire I am sorry but Westwood is nowhere near as skillful as Super Sam or Ellis.
Wazza's main industrys are service industries, call centres, warehouses and the public sector nowadays. All three are under threat from the Tory cuts.

No. They had dozens.
Here's at least ten, in no particular order.
She's Leaving Home
In My Life
While My Guitar Gently Weeps *
Norwegian Wood
Yesterday
We Can Work It Out
Eleanor Rigby
Fool On The Hill
Across The Universe
Something *
Lennon/McCartney were genius songwriters, but the odd thing is my two favourite Beatles songs are by George Harrison. *
I like Octopus's Garden better than Yellow Submarine n' all!

It's one of those things with me Chris, my older siblings, parents and colleagues love em, I was brought up with punk, and latterly with the indie stuff such as, and I know you'll kill me, The Smiths etc so I never got the Beatles and for that matter more latterly the Oasis. I'm a bit of an awkward git, if something is really popular I tend to shy away from it.

I think I've done listening to the Beatles to death. Maybe I will return in years down the line but I don't feel the same for them as I used to. Over exposure I think.
That said, I can write a list of some of my faves.
Here Comes the Sun
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Hey bulldog
Hello Goodbye
Something
Long and Winding Road
Hey Jude
The Fool on the Hill
Strawberry Fields Forever
For The Benefit of Mister Kite
Post Beatles you can just about cobble together a best of for John's best songs, Paul has been genuinely embarrassing, and George helped fund and release some great British films whilst quietly living out his life. Without a doubt my favourite Beatle.
