That's the ultimate list of The Beatles songs containing any girl's name, appearing on their albums and several singles. Which is your favourite?

I vote for Sexy Sadie, but LSD, Julia and Dear Prudence are very close.

Do you still think Sadie was a chap? OK, the first version of this song was about Maharishi Mahesh Yogi , their Indian guru, but because later disillusion about him, Lennon has changed the lyrics completely.

So, Yoko wasn't a girl but twice divorced woman and mother, when she's met John. Approve

Gandalff, you seem to never run out of ideas Thumbs Up

I can go all day listening to the beautiful Martha My Dear. A close second is the quiet Julia and of course Dear Prudence.

That girl who came in through the bathroom window. Whatshername. She caught me and we did it in the road. Penny Lane, I believe. We were a couple of piggies too! It was a day in the life I'll never remember.

And Prudence takes the lead.

Martha My Dear

What's with the covers? They're about girls but not written by any Beatle.
