13 Underrated Beatles Songs You Should Definitely Give A Listen To

Tom Hanley

As one of the most well known bands in history, it's no surprise The Beatles wrote numerous top billboard hits during their short but impactful career. In less than 10 years, the wonderful band from Liverpool produced 13 albums, recording around 200 songs. Alongside their music, The Beatles proved to be influential in culture, fashion, and the music world entirely, paving the way of rock & roll for years to come.

My childhood was filled with love and exposure to The Beatles, considering my dad and mom absolutely love old rock & roll and wouldn't hear of their child being any other way, and today, they are without a doubt my favorite band as well. Many of The Beatles songs are easy to recognize and almost everyone can sing along to "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "Let It Be" but there are so many other songs that aren't given the credit for how great they actually are. I'm partial to every on of their songs and personally believe everyone should take the time to listen to all of The Beatles' songs, but for the sake of this article, I'll just list a few of the songs I think are absolutely genius, yet known by few people.

1. P.S. I Love You - Please Please Me (1962)

"Treasure these few words till we're together, keep my love forever, p.s. I love you"

2. If I Fell - A Hard Day's Night (1964)

4. No Reply - Beatles For Sale (1964)

"If I were you I'd realize that I love you more than any other guy. And I'll forgive the lies that I heard before when you gave me no reply"

https://open.spotify.com/track/4ltC6PrqkTtpcRNi5lv...

5. I've Just Seen A Face - Help! (1965)

8.She's Leaving Home - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967)

"Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins, silently closing her bedroom door, leaving the note that she hoped would say more"

https://open.spotify.com/track/3PjMtNzwhDHqxoKudm6...

9.The Fool on the Hill - Magical Mystery Tour (1967)

"But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down, and the eyes in his head see the world spinning 'round"

12. Oh! Darling- Abbey Road (1969)

"When you told me, you didn't need me anymore. Well you know I nearly broke down and cried"

https://open.spotify.com/track/2mxByJWOajjiVsLWjNX...

13. Across the Universe- Let It Be (1970)

"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither while they pass, they slip away, across the universe"

https://open.spotify.com/track/4dkoqJrP0L8FXftrMZo...

Of course, there are plenty more songs that are not listened to enough, but I hope you enjoyed these few and appreciate the band that impacted music history so much, a bit more :)

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
