The Beatles’ classic and popular songs (91–100)
We Can Work It OutThe Beatles
Paul composed the A section, John the B section, and George wrote the part that shifts into a relaxed waltz at the end.
It’s a beautiful song that expresses positive feelings, and by combining their individual songwriting sensibilities into a single, Beatles-esque work, it embodies the idea in the title that when they join forces, things go well.
Your Mother Should KnowThe Beatles
A track from the album Magical Mystery Tour.
Written by Paul, whose creative powers had reached their peak with Sgt.
Pepper’s, the song—though short—boasts a light, breezy melody and superb structure that fully showcases his genius.
The flashy music video is also well worth a look.
Lady MadonnaThe Beatles
This is the 17th original single, released in March 1968.
It reached No.
4 on the Billboard weekly chart on April 20, 1968, and ranked No.
64 on the 1968 year-end chart.
In Cash Box magazine, it peaked at No.
2 and placed No.
27 on the year-end chart.
Ticket to RideThe Beatles
It is the ninth original single, released on April 9, 1965.
The heavy drumming and guitar were striking for the time, and later, in 1980, John Lennon said, “This is me.
As a heavy metal record, it’s one of the earliest.
Ringo’s drumming was thanks to Paul.”
Yellow SubmarineThe Beatles
This is a composition by Paul with a playful, fairy-tale-like worldview—so much so that an animated film was later made based on the song.
Ringo handles the vocals, which enhances the warm, laid-back feel.
With added sound effects like the fizz of a glass and bursts of laughter, it’s crafted into a whimsical, fun piece.
Dig ItThe Beatles
The version on the album Let It Be is extremely short—so short you might wonder if it even counts as a song—but in the longer outtake recordings you can clearly hear their attempts at improvisation, making it a must-listen for fans.
It’s a bit sad how George seems hesitant, being overshadowed by John and Paul.
Hello, GoodbyeThe Beatles
It is the 16th original single, released in November 1967.
It reached number one in both the UK and the US, topping the Billboard weekly chart on December 30, 1967.
It also ranked 17th on Billboard’s year-end chart for 1967, and spent two consecutive weeks at number one on the Cash Box chart.
