Born after 1964 then?
If you lived through it, you wouldn't be stating this. But I might be wrong.

I wouldn't disagree with such a statement, but there's something about Fixing A Hole which just won't leave me alone.

I'm afraid I must go with the majority here and choose "A Day in the Life". Though I guess if this poll were done in a non-prog music site, "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and perhaps "With a Little help from my Friends" would be winning, or at least giving a tight competition.

Voted for the strangest song I found in my dad's record colletion Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! (which obviously didn't contain much strangeness) but could have gone for A Day in the Live like everybody else.

An exorbitantly overvalued cultural artifact but I voted for Fixing a Hole nevertheless.There are better Beatles albums and better Beatles songs.

"A Day in the Life" is the obvious choice but over the years I've come to appreciate "She'd Leaving Home" more and more, lyrically as well as musically.

Difficult choice really, but Paul's 'Fixing A Hole' just stays with me. Every time someone mentions Pepper's, the first song that enters my thoughts is this track.
