Is Here, There and Everywhere the best song on pic related?

I'd say it's on par with the other best songs on the album (tomorrow never knows, I'm only sleeping, for no one)
hip hip, so hip to be square

Yeah. I can't believe I used to skip it. Once I listened past the 30 second mark I realised it was a flawless piece of music.
It's my second favourite Beatles song overall behind SFF. Runners-up on Revolver include She Said She Said, Taxman and Tomorrow Never Knows. The whole album is fantastic though.

It's my personal favorite track on the record. I love that unconventional folky progression it has, and of course along with the various melodies going in and out, one of my strangely favorite things about the tracks is that weird "pop" noise that comes in around every chorus.

I will agree, also for no one is one my all time favs beatles wise.
The genius of the song is that with limited instrumentation it accomplishes more than almost any other pop song, in only 2 and a half minutes. McCartney was unbelievably economical at his songwriting peak.
Keeping it so simple is the key; that brief moment of finger clicking towards the end could so easily have featured throughout the entire song, but McCartney realised that a little sprinkling would work more effectively. The guitar riff is beautiful but the fact he chose to use it so briefly any otherwise let the vocal harmonies carry the rest of the song was an inspired choice. It's as close to perfect as any love song has gotten in my opinion.

This.
Though For No One is my favorite track because it hits deep on a personal level to me.

Hits me deep too, it's almost as if he was inside my head as he wrote that. Every word of it, especially waking up and your first thought being about how she is starting her day carefree and without feeling the need to rush anything. That hits home hard
>>70546693
Yeah, you hit the nail on the head.. I'm gonna be honest and say that I had my music set on shuffle one day and For No One came on and I just lost it. Very powerful track for anyone who can relate.

I had a similar experience when listening to the album on a long train journey once. I finally paid attention to the lyrics and it became an instant fave of mine

1) Tomorrow Never Knows
2) Here, There and Everywhere
3) She Said She Said
4) I'm Only Sleeping
5) Eleanor Rigby
6) Doctor Robert
7) Love You Too
