Where To Watch
Are these songs by Paul McCartney or John Lennon?
Was it the Smart Beatle? Or the Cute Beatle?
We could sit around and debate all day long which one's better. Ultimately, you can't argue that they were at their best when they worked together. There was something really special about the way these two complement one another.
But, nothing lasts forever. The Beatles broke up, and then Lennon and McCartney went their separate ways, each forging a successful solo career. What we'd like to know is whether you can tell their songs apart! We'll name a tune, and you tell us who it came from. No tricks here, it's all fairly straightforward. Even more than we're trying to test your knowledge, we just want to celebrate these two songwriters.
One caveat: We might include some tracks from Wings (so, pick McCartney) or Plastic Ono Band (choose Lennon).
When you're finished, tell us which one you prefer in the comments section below. Go ahead and share your score, too, if it's worth bragging about!

20/20. I think that just about any true Beatles fan would get a perfect score on this one!
20/20 I'm a boomer and I really love those guys.
18/20
Missed one!
20/20 Both brilliant. Blessed to have seen McCartney in concert. Wish I could have seen Lennon.
Saw Paul in Philly about 8 years ago. Hope he comes back. Going to see Ringo in concert again in June.
18/20 I like Lennon's songs better. They were great together but I think Lennon was the genius in the band.

18/20. Great song writers. I remember watching the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show; great! My sister and I waited all day to watch that show. Great times!
I love Paul!!!
I did pretty good since I wasn't a big fan of their music.
13/20
Cake.

12 out of 20. I don't like the Beatles, except for 2 songs: Paul McCartney's "Penny Lane," and John Lennon's "Help." Really cute songs! Very cheery. Except for those 2 songs, the Monkees music is definitely way better!
Monkees were my intro to rock music. Still love them to this day.
Lily, hate to break the news to you but you’re in the minority. Even the Monkees liked the Beatles’ music better. 😀
I do too. They're fun to watch and listen to!
I am in the minority, but that doesn't bother me. I didn't know that the Monkees liked the Beatles music better. I read somewhere that John Lennon liked the Monkees TV show. I think that he said they were like the Marx brothers.
You are correct. You can prefer whatever band you want. I’m a big Monkees fan too. I Love ‘ Pleasant Valley. 🎶 Have a great day!

I was hungry until I took this quiz....then I remembered that naked pic of John & Yoko and lost my appetite.
