"Birthday" - written by John and Paul, and featured in "The Beatles" (aka White Album). Not to be mistaken with "Happy Birthday", which is a cover of the traditional birthday song by the Beatles.
This song is also a link that is often included in birthday wishes in Facebook. So if someone sent you a link to this page, "Happy Birthday!" to you. :D

And I Love Her
From the "A Hard Day's Night" album, one of the most beautiful Beatles tune. Composed and sung by Paul McCartney.
Labels:
1964,
A Hard Day's Night,
Studio Live,
Touring Years
Money (That's What I Want)
Powerful vocals, tight guitars - this song has got everything. It's not really an original Beatles song - it's their cover of a 1959 hit song by Barrett Strong. But John Lennon's shouting vocal performance here elevated this song to the heights of "Twist and Shout" and "Rock and Roll Music", both cover versions that sounded much better after being given Beatles treatment.
Labels:
1963,
Rock n Roll,
Studio Live,
Touring Years,
With The Beatles
Don't Let Me Down
There is a line where John Lennon sings in some foreign tongue and then smiles about it - that's where he had forgotten the lyrics.
Labels:
1969,
Live,
Past Masters,
Rooftop Concert,
Studio Years
I've Got A Feeling
This song is a mashup of Paul McCartney's "I've Got a Feeling" and John Lennon's "Everybody Had a Hard Year" from the White Album sessions. Featured in the "Let It Be" album from 1970.
Lennon's looked very kewl with the guitar in this video.

"Two of Us" written by Paul McCartney and sung as a duet by Lennon and McCartney. In the "Let It Be" album, released in 1970. George Harrison played bass in this song. Poor Ringo seemed to be bored to death playing drums here. :(

Hello, Goodbye
"Hello, Goodbye" from 1967. Video features a light hearted John Lennon dancing towards the end of the video. Now contrast this with his 1969 videos where he looked so serious. What happened in those 2 years?
