TOP 100 Beatles Songs (100-91)

Its time for another Top 100 list, but this time I will be doing it by myself. I will be posting the songs in groups of 10 until we reach number 10. Like other Top 100's only the top 5 will have a summery of why I chose it.The Beatles are by far my favourite band and are arguably the greatest band of all time! To show my inner "Beatle-Maniac" I have comprised a list of their top 100 songs excluding covers and anthologies. Below each song will have its first recording, first  release (album and date) and  writer. I love all the Beatles songs and it was very hard to pick my favourite, I hope you will all enjoy this list!
