Alight to all you Beatle fan DU'ers.....

I was wondering which is your favorite solo song. Probably, as many others, Imagine (John) has been mine.

In the past year, I just discovered, Beware of Darkness (George). My God....It may be tied with Imagine now......

I love Clapton's music, his politics, not so much

note - I always thought it was George on guitar

I think I might even like it better than 'Yesterday.'
And that's saying something!
