If I had to listen to only one song from The Beatles for the rest of my life it would be...
On January 1st 2014, the Desert Island Mixtape Project was launched. You are stranded on an island. You only have one song to listen to for the rest of your life. Each month a new band is chosen. It seems fitting that the first band chosen was...The Beatles. The four lads from Liverpool. They changed music. They changed everything.

Feel free to discuss the results of the survey. The most surprising this to me was the variety of the songs. It is a real interesting study into the likes/dislikes of music listeners. There were some songs that I had never heard which makes this project more than worth it.
ADAM
I've never heard of many on the list either, including "Here, There and Everywhere", which rated pretty high.
Great start Adam!
