Most talented Beatle?

George was the soul

Thanks for that. Didnt know there was a saying but it seems very fitting.

I voted George Harrison, cuz he's been stabbed, which makes him hardcore

John lennon

You are wrong, im know very well that pete best was the frist drummer before ringo in the beatles. But when ringo arrives, they were more popular and suscessuful and the beatles hit started. Their first number one was with ringo, not with best.

And you aparantly dont know how to spell too well

Both geniuses but McCartney wrote Helter Skelter which edges him into the front in my opinion. Any thoughts?

I always preferred Lennon. He seemed to be the greater mind of the two. That and I've completely gone off McCartney.

im more of a lennon fan, i only really like mccartneys stuff with the beatles anyways.

I agree with this post.

It's like Coke or Pepsi.

Which is better? They're kind of the same, and I'd always go for something else first.

Gun to head, Lennon.

Although I don't know who is better. Ba-zing!

Is it too soon?

I can understand why Ringo isn't on there but you don't think that Harrison even deserves a slot? That's who I would've chose cause he didn't write as many songs as Lennon or McCartney but the songs he did write were always better.

totally agree

Hasnt this already been done before 😕?

McCartney was a more talented musician but Lennon had more soul and fire.

I think Lennon has the edge in the songwriting stakes.

I probably prefere Lennon. Its really hard though cos when together they brought something out of each other.

McCartneys new song fine line is really catchy... but i still prefere him in the beatles.

Yeah, best when they are together, both went downhill pretty quickly after they split up, the first Mccartney album after the beatles broke up is really ace, good acoustic stuff, and lennon wrote a few great tunes after the split but they could not maintain the consistency.

Damn you ONO gehl

Interesting that the best Beatles solo album was "All things must pass" by George.

Im a big fan of both, but im more a lennon fan than a macartney fan. Both are two of the best composer and musician ever, but i choose lennon because he had more personality and was more rebeld and innovator. Paul was more classic.
