0314. The Beatles
A Hard Day's Night

So, The Beatles makes a return to the list after not even three weeks. As per usual during the Beatlemania almost all of the tracks are labeled classics and all of them are about love or "my baby" (there wasn't much else to sing about in those days, was there?). Half of them were released as A- or B-side-singles and all of those of course hit big time.
Nowadays - over forty-five years later - it's a fairly timid bunch of songs, but back then it put flames in your granny's underwear.

And songs like the title track and Can't Buy Me Love are of course still good, but I particularly like Things We Said Today as it's not in the usual up-tempo of the other tracks as well as having a vibe of a nostalgic future (and also makes me wonder if McCartney has got together with Jane Asher to reminisce about the trip when the song was written [fact check: apparently not]).

As magnificent as it would have been to end the album with that song they thought otherwise and thew in a triplet of songs that follow the previously beaten path and thus aren't as memorable as their predecessors.
But what the hell, Things We Said Today makes it worth it.
