One band, 213 songs, a ranked list, and thousands of internet commenters with opinions. This is more than a list, as Vulture's Bill Wyman (not that Bill Wyman) gives a rationale for the ranking of each Beatles song. Yes, he knew it would enrage people to see their personal favorites ranked lower than they expected.
No stupid list has ever made me as angry as this one! https://t.co/uDd88taFaT

See how your favorites fared in the list at Vulture. Each song is linked to its Spotify recording or YouTube video, and if you don't have a Spotify account, most of them can be found at YouTube. -via Metafilter

"I Want to Hold Your Hand" not on the list that I could see. What's the matter, the biggest Beatlemania U.S. hit didn't fit into someone's no nothing hipster fantasy?

Number 9 is the worst Beatles song. Period.

Never a fan and don't know about 60% of the songs listed, but The Ballad of John and Yoko, Helter Skelter and Come Together would be at the bottom of my list.
