I'll nominate "Why Don't We Do It In The Road?" I believe that gives us 64 right?

I'll nominate "Why Don't We Do It In The Road?" I believe that gives us 64 right? Indeed, sir, it does! I also changed one of my original picks to "One After 909", if you guys don't mind. Alright, give me a minute to pull up my number generator and we'll get started!

Alright, folks, it's time to find out what the best song from the most influential band ever is! I thank you all for your nominations, and I can't imagine how hard every match is going to be for you guys to vote on, as Stinger said a while back. But, only one song can win, so let's see what that might be! For this tournament, I think I'll just go ahead and post the album cover for the image part. Mainly because I don't know how many singles are on that list, and, bigger pictures can be had for the albums as opposed to the single covers. And here.....we......go!! The Beatles' Best Song: The Tournament!

Getting Better. My favourite song off Sgt. Pepper's, excluding the obvious song.

Rocky Raccoon. Marvelous storytelling and shows off the Beatles love of American country music.

Get Back. Love the lyrics and it has some of George's best Beatles-era guitar work, imo.

Anna (Go To Him) Sad that it lost, such an underrated song that's usually pushed over by I Saw Her Standing There. I love playing it on Bass, such a catchy rhythm.

I need to actually pay attention to what I'm voting for. I took a quick glance and thought that was a match between Let it Be and Get Back. I was wondering why mine was the only vote for Let it Be.
For the record, had I actually looked at the titles, I would have voted for Anna (Go To Him). Probably my favorite early Beatles song.

I can look for the singles covers if you guys would like, but the album cover pictures just look better - and given that the list isn't all singles, it makes that difficult. Hopefully that confusion doesn't happen too often for you and everybody else - perhaps I'll make the song titles bigger, too, in absence of the singles' covers.

My own fault. I definitely won't make the same mistake twice.
