I have a vague memory of singing 'Mull of Kintyre' in assembly at infants school. I have no idea what to make of this at all

Nonsense.
Imagine if, when you were a kid - aged about, i dunno, 11 - you were asked to write a poem about 'peace'. And imagine that you did and since you were only 11 it was full of platitudes and triteness but everyone thought it was sweet for an 11 year old, and kind of wise, y'know, FOR AN 11 YEAR OLD. And imagine that your mum was dead proud and kept the poem in a keepsake box for years and then it was your wedding day, say, and as a wedding gift your mum got the tune set to music by an ageing and barely competent retired music teacher who set it to a school-hymn style dirge. And imagine that it was then played AT YOUR WEDDING.
That's how ashamed Lennon should be about the fucking song.

That's a bit of a dumb fucking question, isn't it?
What, ANY good song ever? and from that, you're going to reach what conclusion precisely?
Pavlik said:
Why? So I can name one and you can go "ah, but that's a shit song" and get some dry little stab of pleasure from doing so?

How the fuck can a religion that is based on death whose key symbol is a bloke suffering on a cross be bothered about something they claim to be anti-religious, strikes me as hypocritcal Satanism is also based on death and suffering, will the real god please show his kite and lets just hope it aint a mock working class scouser with penny round glasses on, if it is its off to the lake of fire for me

But don't you think it's a rather ridiculous question?
But can't you see how reductive that is? I'm a DJ, i have possibly 100s of thousands of tunes in about every genre you could care to think of, how am I supposed to pick ONE?
ah fuck it, Ok.

I was just after an example of a good song, not your favourite.
It's very easy to slag somehing off. I'd just like to hear something positive.
Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can?
Its irrelevant that he's in a fuckin huge white house. He's offering us the chance to think about life without attatchment.
That line has always helped to bring me down to earth and to think about something other than what I'm going to buy next to improve my life.
It may not be a great song but there are some thought provoking ideas in there.

Just thought I'd throw my weight in behind the "it is a complete turd of an excuse for a song" camp.
No, seriously, it's fucking terrible.
Simple-minded cheesy garbage nonsense waste-of-time noodling piss.
Is it the most over-rated song of all time?
