Something that I've been itching to ask for the past couple of years. Any thoughts? ------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |

Both are good, but Here Comes the Sun is not hard to pick. -------------

Here Comes The Sun is one of the few songs I like from Abbey Road so it gets my vote. ------------- "Hey there, Dog Man, now I drink from your bowl." |

| A small preference for "Waiting For The Sun". Morrison and Krieger were flawless on that track, really made it special. That guitar, man. |

I'll vote for the Doors track, not only is it wilder, there's a crusty busker dude that occasionally howls the Beatles song at my work (he's a massive Beatles/Lennon fan), and he's just killed lots of songs for me - now I just can't listen to lots of Beatles things.... To clarify - he knows about 8 songs, and just played them over, and over, and over...........and over, and he's not even good...... |

@Ozric:  A similar situation happened to me, but it was because the Beatles were the only thing I listened to for so long, that I burned myself out on them and needed something new to listen to so I wouldn't go crazy. Incidentally, The Doors were part of that initial bunch to artists, though, unfortunately, it was mostly because of that dumb Oliver Stone movie. At least the music has more than held up for me.------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |

Waiting for the Sun, easily. The Beatles track is just too bright. No pun intended. ------------- Crushed like a rose in the riverflow. |

Thanks to this forum I recently knew a superb selection of The Doors songs  , since I already knew a few catchy from them; and right now excited with another damn good one that I just happen to know. Looking forward to spinning it at my job too  , there are people right there who love The Doors, Creedence, Beatles, but also something modern like Eddie Vedder as well. -------------  "Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy."

it depends on the mood for me (i voted for that one), but it's usually the Beatles over the Doors for this case. ------------- Progrockdude |

| Here Comes The Sun is one of three (with Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane) of my favourite songs by The Beatles so I clicked on that one. |

Here Comes the Sun by Harrison. As great as the Abbey Road medley is, Harrison's songs Here Comes the Sun and Something are better than any one song by either Lennon and McCartney on Abbey Road and really helped to knock the album out of the ball park. ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

Waiting for the Sun. Both great songs, but I agree that Here Comes the Sun is just too bright. ------------- Want to play mafia? Visit http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com" rel="nofollow - here . |

The Doors, Waiting for the Sun.------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |

Neither...I'd prefer to hear Under The Sun by the mighty Black Sabbath than any of the choices of the poll. ------------- "Nobody's Gonna Change My World That's Something To Unreal" Lyrics that i live my life by-from Black Sabbath's Technical Ecstasy's track You Won't Change Me |

Oh yeah, that one. I keep overlooking "Under The Sun" every time I think of Vol. 4, but when it does play on my stereo... wow. ------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |
