I've made these before with RB1, but I think it's about time this gets made, and I have a strong opinion on a certain song and I'd like to see how it fares.

Personally, I think Do You Want To Know a Secret is extremely underrated. It gets dissed a lot for being in the game in place of a "better" song, but personally, I love this song and is possibly my favorite on that album.

I would say Hey Bulldog. At least my Mom and a lot of my friends knew Do You Want To Know A Secret. But she and a lot of my friends didn't know Hey Bulldog

Do You Want To Know A Secret is actually very popular in my area, quite a few people know it.

All the Beatles Songs are fantastic, but for me I'd have to say the most Underrated song is I Me Mine.

On that list, Dear Prudence. Which is possibly the best song ever.

And Your Bird Can Sing is the #2. So everyone wins. Now we just need Your Going To Lose That Girl.

Hey Bulldog followed closely by Dear Prudence, I Me Mine, and And Your Bird Can Sing.

I've always thought "I'm Looking Through You" was one of those Beatle songs that never got its due among the bigger hits.

I'm Looking Through You, followed by Hey Bulldog and And Your Bird Can Sing.


Apparently I'm the only one who picked I'm Looking Through You..

How is Dear Prudence underrated? It's the most well known song on that list! I even hear it on the radio, which is more than I can say for the others.

Recurring conversation in my life...

Friend: "I love 'Hey Jude.' What's *your* favorite Beatles song?
Me: "And Your Bird Can Sing."
Friend: "Huh? Never heard of it."
Me: "Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....."

Thank you, Harmonix, for plucking it from obscurity! :)

Something has to be the most well known. :P

Also, I'll be honest. I didn't know it at all when the game came out, and I highly doubt my casual Beatles fans parents would know it.

I hear/listen to all but Do You Want to Know a Secret a lot, so it easily gets my vote.

So tough between Do You Want to Know a Secret and I'm Looking Through You but......I'm Looking Through You.
But my mom (an avid Beatles fan) didn't recognize Boys and believe it or not The End. Maybe The End isn't as popular as I thought.

...Now we just need Your Going To Lose That Girl.

Yesss! One of the best Beatles songs ever! Along with "I Need You" and "The Night Before." I really hope we get the Help! album on DLC. I think the film's seven songs represent the group at their best.

It would be awesome to have a special Help! venue that has them singing on the battlefield protected by tanks...or on the beach with that huge statue in the ocean.

"And Your Bird Can Sing". Great song, terribly underrated.

"Dear Prudence" is reasonably famous, maybe not top tier Beatles famous, but at least second tier. It was even in "Across the Universe" last year, and a character was named after the song. It is one of those songs that anyone over a certain age or that doesn't think the Beatles catalogue ends with "Yesterday", "Let it Be" and "Hey Jude" would most likely know.

This game is probably the first mainstream exposure this little gem has ever had. I was thrilled when I heard it was going to be included.

Anyway, "Dig a Pony". The Rodney Dangerfield of Beatles songs finally gets a bit of love with the inclusion in this game.

I was thrilled when I heard it was going to be included.This one was always going to make disc since I heard the game was announced there was no way it wasn't going to be on there. It is considered one of the better Beatles guitar songs because the main rift is hard as hell to recreate.

Was a toss up between And Your Bird Can Sing and Do You Want to Know a Secret, but I ended up with "Other" because the list didn't have I Me Mine.

I don't find dear prudence or good morning good morning very underrated. I'd say and your bird can sing, hey bulldog, but i chose if i needed someone. I don't necessarily think the songs underrated, i'm just really liking it lately and have listened to it a lot more after playing it in the game. i've always liked it, but like it more now. Although its probably not very underrated.

Voted for "And Your Bird Can Sing"... but feel guilty cause I didn't vote for any of the other songs on the list.

Do You Want to Know a Secret is known by most people somehow, and Dear Prudence is a fairly well known song simply for being track 2 on the White Album. Hey Bulldog is a lot of fun, so are a lot of those songs.

When you say "Underrated" by what aspect do you mean?

LOL I wonder if "Do You Want to Know a Secret" would have that many votes if it wasn't for my post about it...

Anyway, "I Want You" is obviously the right choice but it's not there, so I voted "other". Also, "I Me Mine" is so underrated it isn't even listed above! Great song.

Out of this list, Prudence and Pony are the best.

Seriously, this thread says it all! No one has said a damn thing about "Dig a Pony!" Easily one of the most underrated (overlooked?) songs.

Lennon sounds fantastic in this song. Especially when he belts out that chorus. Plus it has one of the best "woo's" of all their songs! And the guitar rocks
