1. Happiness Is a Warm Gun (White Album)
2. When My Guitar Gently Weeps (White Album)
3. "black bird singing in the dead of night" song (White Album)
4. Desolation Row (Bob Dylan wouldn't have written this, if The Beatles hadn't encouraged him to go electric)
5. It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) (Bob Dylan wouldn't have written this without influence from The Beatles).

Hmmm...favorites or level of importance?
 
From an importance standpoint, I would say:
 
1. Eleanor Rigby (a rock song with no guitar, bass, keyboard or drums? Preposterous!)
2. Hey Jude (a rock band can't have a hit song over 7 minutes long, it just isn't done!)
3. Norwegian Wood (the first time a sitar appears on a rock release -- the Yardbirds used one, but on a demo)
4. Tomorrow Never Knows (one of the most influential pieces of psychedelia ever recorded)
5. Yesterday (the most covered song in history -- so that must mean something, right?)
6. A Day in the Life (Progressive before there was such a thing)
7. In My Life (Lennon's final piece of evolution from pop tune writer to rock composer)
8. I am the Walrus (psychedelic symphonic orchestration? And lines from King Lear?)
9. Something (the first Harrison song to appear on the A side of a single)
10. Helter Skelter (Paul McCartney writes an acid rock song? And Charles Manson hears voices)
 
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...
