My favorite Beatles song is Blackbird:
"Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life "
Generally the White Album is my favorite Beatles record.

@helenS I've heard the song but it doesn't get played on the radio. They play various Beatles songs, "Can't Buy Me Love" was on today.

@HairbrushDiva Yes early Beatles songs are more radio-friendly. Thank you for posting "Blackbird"! 🌷

@helenS I try to post songs people say they like. :)

"Blackbird" sounds radio-friendly to me, yet it's never chosen by radio DJs like, say, "Yesterday". That's an acoustic song like "Blackbird".

@HairbrushDiva "Yesterday" has a much more conventional song structure. In my opinion, that song is overrated (no offense meant).

@helenS None taken. It's just a simple pop ballad that caught on probably because it's a Beatles song.
