	Can't go wrong with the Beatles!

	rockgolf:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 21:03 GMT	3 points
	Notes: The green clue, as you've probably worked out, is the album (UK & CD) on which the song appeared. The George & Ringo lists are in alphabetical order by song title, if that helps.

	To quote Frank Sinatra, 'Something' is the best song that Lennon and McCartney ever wrote.

	Really, "Double White?" The album's name is "The Beatles."

	I'm a huge Fab Four fan, RockG, but I found this pretty tough. I like it!

	Can't believe some of the ones I missed...:-(

"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is one of my all-time favorite songs.

	By the way, the color scheme on the quiz is intended to replicate the colors on Apple Record labels - Granny Smith green & apple-white.

	longer list than i thought it would be but fair play to thomas the tank engine

	tk925:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 22:05 GMT	12 points
	This is a good quiz, though I would change the album title to The Beatles or The White Album. And the b-sides are tough without either the a-side or at least a date -- there was no way I was coming up with The Inner Light without a year.

	tk925:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 22:11 GMT	7 points
	The title on the front page is also misleading (though I doubt the game creator's responsible for that), a fair number of these songs aren't by George or Ringo at all.

	rockgolf:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 22:25 GMT	1 point
	@tk925: I'll take responsibility. There's a limit, however, on how long these titles can be. No offense intended to Messrs. Perkins, Berry et al.

	The advertisement for The Beatles rock band is blowing up on this quiz.

	I'll join in the call to chance "Double White" to "The White Album", which, though still incorrect, is near-universally used (whereas this is the first time in my life I've ever seen "Double White"). Also, Matchbox wasn't a b-side, making it pretty tough to get that one. It was originally released on an EP.

	BigFlax:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 22:49 GMT	4 points
	Eesh, can't believe I missed "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."

	Sweet. George was the most talented, too bad he was silenced a lot.. also these albums could be grouped a little less randomly

	I've always had a soft spot for Ringo, mostly because he never made a big deal about being famous or anything...probably also because we have the same birthday.

	MovieDynamic:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 01:58 GMT	6 points
	George Harrison was the best Beatle!

	kingstony:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 02:10 GMT	3 points
	Jolly good show

	robschulz:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 02:40 GMT	2 points
	Ugh, I'm SO disappointed in myself. I missed some HUGE ones that I definitely should've gotten. I think I needed more time. Maybe another minute or so? Ah well. Good job.

	tobinw:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 02:59 GMT	9 points
	Why is this one of the "Also..." quizzes? That's my only complaint. George was my favourite one of the four.

	Havok3595:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 06:33 GMT	3 points
	Inner Light was pretty easy for me, I just thought about every sitar based song they had. The Rubber Soul Ringo song always escapes me, even though I've had to bring it up a lot lately to prove that, no, not every Ringo sung song is in RB. I might have gotten more if I wasn't banging my head on the keyboard trying to remember that one. And I agree with popular sentiment, George was the best.

	Fergie:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 11:58 GMT	8 points
	i've never heard it called 'Double White' before. it should be either 'The Beatles' or 'The White Album'

	mattrd08:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 18:50 GMT	1 point
	I learned something today. For the past 17 years, I have thought that George sang Norwegian Wood. I've been living a lie...

	Don't Pass Me By is a classic!!!!

	GeordieGuitarist:	Sep 24th, 2009 at 02:45 GMT	-2 points
	Journalist: "Is Ringo the best drummer in the world" McCartney : "Ringo's not even the best drummer in The Beatles" Ringo Starr is the luckiest man alive, being able to 'drum' with 3 talented musicians and songwriters.

	GeordieGuitarist:	Sep 24th, 2009 at 19:34 GMT	1 point
	I meant Lennon not McCartney! oops.

	deej:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 02:34 GMT	2 points
	I think a good follow up to this song would just be, name the singer for the given Beatles song. Some are easy, some not so much!

	deej:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 02:36 GMT	0 points
	PS: the name of "the white album" isn't "the beatles," that's just what it says on the cover, just like every single other beatles album (I think). It doesn't HAVE a proper name (that was the point), so really you can call it whatever you want.

	robschulz:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 02:56 GMT	1 point
	Thats 100% wrong, deej. The proper name of "The White Album" IS "The Beatles." And I dont' know what you're talking about with the other Beatles albums.. Rubber Soul is Rubber Soul... Am I missing something?

	janet:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 03:27 GMT	4 points
	Awesome, awesome quiz. George Harrison was seriously underrated.

	deej:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 08:49 GMT	1 point
	@robschultz - I am saying that just because the words "the beatles" appear on an album (as they do, without checking, on most or all of their other albums), denoting it is BY them, that doesn't make it the title of the album.

	clevername:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 21:41 GMT	0 points
	Is it just me, or do their voices all sound remarkably alike? I've always had trouble telling who was singing what.

	Justin_S:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 23:06 GMT	1 point
	Who in the world calls it "Double White?" Being a huge Beatles fan, and having read multiple books and watched many, many documentaries on them, this is the first time I have have encountered "double white." The title in widespread usage is "The White Album." True, it's a double album, but no one calls it "double white."

	DaniChick:	Sep 27th, 2009 at 21:44 GMT	1 point
	As much as I love John and Paul, I have a real soft spot for George and Ringo. I got them all except "Matchbox" (which was actually the A side of "Slow Down", another cover, released only in the US). It's funny seeing "The White Album" being referred to as "Double White" since that's what I used to call it when I was younger and my Dad still calls it that now. Great quiz! :)

	shamrock:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 23:17 GMT	1 point
	For George, what about "I've Got My Mind Set On You", "My Sweet Lord", and "All Those Years Ago"? Those were classics, and I agree with many of you; he was my favorite Beatle.

	Drizzt:	Oct 14th, 2009 at 22:02 GMT	1 point
	Hey JohnJF - George Harrison wrote Something. Wrote it about Pattie Boyd, also the inspiration for Layla by Eric Clapton, who divorced Harrison to marry Clapton. He heard Ray Charles singing it while he wrote it. I agree, though, one of the best Beatles songs ever.
