Man, I just can't vote on this one.

 

[It's Time!]

Lennon or McCartney for what?

 

[JeffD]

More than the sum of their parts. Can't choose, because either choice diminishes what they did together.

 

[Heinz W]

Or? No.

 

[HoboMan]

OK, I chose - Lennon.

 

[Alligator > jam]

it appears that John is on top

 

[Dr. Tweedbucket]

McCartney .... he was clearly the better musician.

Finally someone with some guts...

Do you go with Lennons political/social side or Paul's pop sensibility?


Only TGP knows for sure...

McCartney... he was the most musically talented of the band, his songs tended to be more straight-forward and timeless (not always, just a generality), his voice tended to be more versatile... Lennon sometimes comes across as trying to be weird for weird's sake, and that can get a little old... I think Lennon pushed McCartney's creativity and McCartney tempered Lennon's weirdness...

Well, with Lennon being dead and all, McCartney would clearly have the advantage in an arm wrestling match, so...

Man I just love the Beatles. I can't imagine a world where John and Paul aren't considered among the very best song writing duos. I prefer Lennon for his edginess and thought provoking songs, while I see McCartney as having a PhD in melody. It's really the perfect combination which shows in their music, just timeless.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Another vote for "I'm not voting."

+1.......i agree........i can't choose one over the other....

 

[fenderball]

i like what lennon was "about" much more than mccartney, but i think mccartney = more talented...

non voter

 

[StratManKudzu]

I like both equally, but the catalogue for McCartney makes me choose him, if John had more time to write I'd never be able to choose, so i would assume.

 

[Texas_Blues]

Both

Not voting. John and Paul were better together than either alone would have been.
