The Beatles did have some monotonous songs. For me, right up there is also Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. I love the Beatles and don't mean to list two, but their Yeah Yeah Yeah songs were very bland to me.

"I Will Always Love You' Skittles May 26 #9

Agree wholeheartedly! Dolly Parton's version is just perfect. (she did write it after all) nt yellowdogintexas May 26 #11

Interestingly enough, it's the most popular remake in history (or at least in modern times) Polybius May 26 #24
