REASONS TO VOTE FOR PAUL:
Harrison was a fluent, inventive and highly accomplished lead and rhythm guitarist, whose influences included Chuck Berry, Carl Perkins and Chet Atkins. Although he was a creative soloist, several of his famous Beatles guitar solos were recorded under specific directions from Paul McCartney, who on occasion demanded that Harrison play what he envisioned virtually note-for-note. Other Harrison solos were directed or modified by producer George Martin, who also vetoed several of Harrison's song and instrument offerings; Martin admitted years later, "I was always rather beastly to George."
He wanted to keep the Beatles together.
He is a musical genius.
He has great songs.
Did I mention that he's a musical genius? |

reasons to vote for lennon
he kicked paul mccartney's ass.
also, for every good paul song there were at least three good lennon songs.
also, paul mccartney contributed to some of the worst songs in beatles history (wild honey pie, ob-la-di, birthday, etc.)
he also rarely wrote a song about anything but loving the girl of the week. as i said in my lengthy conversation i posted, mccartney was hte landscape artist; detailed and satisfying, but not wholly interesting. lennon was the abstract artist; awesome, creative work that you could analyze for hours and not grow bored. (lennon's songs were much more filling, too and he proved himself to be the better solo artist after the split) _________________

No way. Paul had the opportunity to garner a huge fanbase with the 30 plus years he had with this life, but he only put on overpriced concerts and really mediocre albums. _________________

Lennon did "Imagine".
McCartney refused to sign a prenup when his wife offered to.
I think Lennon is the clear winner here. |

imagine the possibilities available if we could bring them together on socks to share their views on which one is better.
