Cool, I love these kinds of "listing / ranking" threads! Here's mine:
Please please me: PS I Love You
With the beatles: All My Loving
(though I would vote Til There Was You, for vocal performance, but alas not a McCartney song)
A hard day´s night: And I Love Her
Beatles for sale: I'll Follow The Sun
(wouldn't Every Little Thing be a John song? I dunno..)
Rubber soul: I'm Looking Through You
Revolver: Good Day Sunshine
Sgt. pepper: She's Leaving Home
Magical mystery tour: Hello Goodbye
White album: Martha My Dear
Yellow submarine: Nothing, as Hey Bulldog is a John song, and the other 2 kickass songs (It's All Too Much and Only A Northern Song) are George's. And All Together Now is utter crap.
Abbey road: You Never Give Me Your Money
Let it be: Let It Be.
You forgot Help!, from which I would choose Yesterday.
Unfortunately though, if you wanted my favourite song from each album, regardless of who wrote what, it would be a different story, and I hate to be a traitor, but take a look at this:
Please please me: Misery
With the beatles: Money
A hard day´s night: And I Love Her
Beatles for sale: No Reply or I'm A Loser
Help: You've Got To Hide Your Love Away or Ticket To Ride
Rubber soul: Norwegian Wood
Revolver: Tomorrow Never Knows
Sgt. pepper: Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds
Magical mystery tour: Strawberry Fields Forever
White album: Martha My Dear
Yellow submarine: Hey Bulldog
Abbey road: Something or I Want You (She's So Heavy)
Let it be: I Me Mine
-all mostly John or George songs, apart from a few Paul ones which I adore to death. Yet the funny thing is, with Wings and solo Paul songs, I think were much better than John / George solo (overall). I think John and George lost their way in the 70s, while Paul just kept getting stronger and stronger. Paul was definitely the most consistently great Beatle. But oddly enough, my favourite Beatle tracks are the classic John ones.
I needed comfort of love just to get me some piece of mind.. wo-oh
