I honestly cannot stand this song.

Worst Beatles song.

I pretty much like them all.

I remember watching the Beatles play Hey Jude live on the Smother’s Brothers show in 1968. Liked it ever since. It’s a happy song.

"I honestly cannot stand this song."

Back in the day, it was one of my favorite Beatles songs, but I have since come to detest The Beatles and their impact on rock music.

The Beatles were the key figures in transforming rock 'n' roll from teenage music - school and cars and girls and dating and dancing and swagger - to pretentious "social commentary" and world-weary angst and psychedelic mumbo-jumbo and intellectual pretentiousness.

Their lyrics and music were "clever" but rarely - if ever - profound or lasting, and I got sick of them. Sixties era producer/songwriter Bert Berns reportedly said of The Beatles, "These boys are genius, but they'll be the ruin of us all." And I'd say that rock 'n' roll is truly dead.

I like Revolution better. Awesome guitar's, and probably the greatest Conservative song ever.

I feel exactly the same way. I can’t stand it. There are so many other Beatles songs more worthy of the praise heaped upon this one.
