Informal Poll Time...Part III

I truly do like the man, and think he's a wonderful songwriter, but is Paul's McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime" the most annoying Christmas song ever?**

**By "annoying," Skoggle means "gets stuck in your head for hours, even days, at a time.

Skogg, that is the very nature of a Beatles song, my friend.

Beatles - Hey Bulldog Lyrics
(Lennon/McCartney)


Sheepdog
Standing in the rain,
Bullfrog
Doing it again
Some think that happinness is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears

Child-like
No one understands,
Jack knife
In your sweaty hands,
Some think that happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile

You can talk to me, if you're lonely you can talk to me

Big man
Walking in the park
Whigwam
Frightened of the dark
Some think that happiness is measured out in you
You think you know me but you haven't got a clue

You can talk to me, if you're lonely you can talk to me

The end of the Bulldog song is the best part. Give it a listen. It's a rocker.

Ok, here's the answer to the quiz:

There are actually two "Beatles songs on the list that were not written by Beatles. "Chains" was written by Jerry Goffin and Carole King (yes THAT Carole King) snd "Roll over Beethoven" was written by Chuck Berry.

Who knew?
