Well, for me "Within You, Without You" for merging East and West, and "She Said, She Said" for its amazing guitar work will always get my vote, or "Good Morning, Good Morning" for using 5/4 time and kazoos. Some of the choices here are cool, too, though.
I love "I'm Only Sleeping." Very underrated. "Helter Skelter" is one of my top 5 Beatles songs ever. "You Won't See Me" is VERY underrated. And "Rain."
And "Dear Prudence" is my favorite Beatles song of all time.
It's all very subjective, I know, but this is the best list I've seen of Beatles favorites or underrated songs. Good work!
You Won't See Me is a gorgeous song. So too are Girl, And Your Bird Can Sing, For No One, She Said She Said, Rain.
But Beatles fans will not regard any of these as under-rated because we love them, we know how good they are. By under-ratedyou must mean, "Not often played in the mainstream". Because everyone will have heard She Loves You, Yellow Submarine, Let it Be, Hey Jude, All You Need is Love. But unless you've got the albums, which the mainstream will not, you will not know these gems.
Lots of songs from the white album are under rated, like "Don't pass me by", "Honey Pie", "Sexy Sadie", "Cry Baby Cry", "Martha My Dear". Also a brilliant song from Sgt. Pepper's that is pretty under rated as well is "Being for the benefit of Mr.Kite!"
the funny thing is the underrated ones are the best.. even tho the overrated ones are great too! they have never made one bad its impressive.... except of course for the ballad of john and yoko
Underrated Beatles' songs: And Your Bird Can Sing, Things We Said Today, Ask Me Why, The Night Before, If I Needed Someone, I've Just Seen A Face, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, The Long and Winding Road, If I Fell, Drive My Car, I'll Follow the Sun, Back in the USSR, Dear Prudence, Dig a Pony, One after 909, Two of Us, Fixing a Hole, Martha My Dear, All I've Got to Do, It Won't Be Long, When I Get Home, I'll Be Back, I Need You, I've Got a Feeling, Tell Me Why, Ticket to Ride and many more
@Lansky73: A good question. It's always an ongoing debate whenever "the first" is mentioned, especially in the art field. That being said, I think it could be argued that it was certainly "one of" the first. Not to mention, many classic heavy metal musicians worshipped the Beatles: Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne to name a few...
@Lansky73 I would have to vote for "I Heard Her Call My Name" by the Velvet Underground, or maybe "Manic Depression" by Jimi; those came out a year before "Helter Skelter". Shoot, even "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" by The Who could be considered on the basis of attitude, and that came out in '65, I think. Lester Bangs wrote a great essay on this subject which you should check out.
after seeing too many most underrated Beatles list, Im now lost and seem to agree to all of them being underrated. Maybe there should be as many as 200 underated beatle songs
Here's my personal list of under-rated Beatles songs. #1:"Wait" #2:Hey Bulldog #3:She's leaving home #5:Martha my dear #6:There's a place #7:Rocky Raccoon #8:Think for yourself #9:The word #10:No reply This list is of songs that don't get enough credit for how good they are (as well as my personal taste). Of course there a lot of pre-1963 Beatles songs that don't get enough recognition as well.Also the Soldier of love cover the Beatles did was amazing as well and gets no recognition.
Most underrated = Tell Me What You See, Doctor Robert, Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey, It's All Too Much, Oh! Darling, Yes it Is, The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill, What You're Doing, Good Morning Good Morning, Not a Second Time.
Great list! Rain, Tomorrow Never Knows and Dear Prudence are among my all-time fav Beatles songs. Got to get you into my life and Helter Skelter are also great, Yes it is is a very fine song,it's really very underrated. The only one I never liked that much is The Word.
why oh why doesn't anyone have "i've got a feeling" on the underrated list? a great great tune....and yes "i dig a pony", mentioned by someone else,for sure!
3:00 Thats the cutest pic of George ever! With the little kitty!!! :)
Condisering I only have 4 Beatles albums, and of the 10 of those songs I know about 4 of then, so maybe a song for ever album or something! I think each album of the 13 will have a least a couple of unknown songs on them.
I love Martha my dear! And Maxwells silver hammer! A lot of people think Martha my dear is about some chick, but NO Paul wrote it for his sheepdog, Martha.
Oddly enough Rain is a very underrated song by the Beatles,it never gets much press among fans and radio stations don't play it much etc etc, it was from 1966 and was their first overtly Psychedelic song and i made a video of my top 10 Beatles songs of all time and i made it my number 1.
Some of my favorite underated songs that didn't make this list are I'm a loser, blue jay way, old brown shoe, for no one(my all tome favorite McCartney piece) , don't pass me by, it's all to much, lovely Rita, and mother natures son
@italianstalion04 GOD! You trying to correct someone because the got the oder wrong of UNKNOWN Beatles songs, you obviously know them if your trying to correct this person, if you dont know them, you dont know them.
Obviously you know these songs so you really cant talk
Im sorry you think Im a moron, coz Im not, and we could probably get along coz we're such avid Beatles fans. But really, I just see the point in having an opinion on this.
@winshinsin it totally is. A Day in the life represented a peak in the history of The Beatles. All the other songs that did that are household titles. people who dont know much of the beatles still recognize those tunes. This is not so for A Day in the Life. Maybe not as underrated as these other songs, but it is still underrated.
yes, it's underrated by most people, but a couple of months ago i was reading an article of the beatles best songs and a day in the life was considered the BEST.
I'm only sleeping" is by far the most underated song. Other's aren't so underated, they're quite well known. Some aren't that good but all in all a good list.
ahhhhhh... DEAR PRUDENCE. that song never makes it on any top lists its in my top five favorite beatles song when it came on in this video i was sing along that just made my day. also im only sleeping and helter skelter a amazing as well i was singin along with those too. <3

These songs are under-rated because, it means you hardly ever hear them, and they are just as great as the more popular ones, if not more so !
These are some of the ones that should get more credit for being great songs and heard more often:
I'm Only Sleeping
If I Needed Someone
The Night Before
Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight
