The Beatles 100 Greatest Songs: #92 "Dig a Pony"

So Rolling Stone (the magazine) suggests that this bluesy Lennon composition was his “dig” at their musical rivals, the Rolling Stones.

Funny, the timing of this, because the "Beatles vs. Stones" debate has been revived in just the last month, from a new book by two longtime Chicago music critics, to musings by Keith Richards in his just-released autobiography, "Life", it’s a 40-year-old story that gets better with age.

The Beatles 100 Greatest Songs: #93 "Sexy Sadie"

[Maharishi] what have you done,
You made a fool of everyone,
You made a fool of everyone,
[Maharishi] ooh what have you done?

[Maharishi] you broke the rules,
You laid it down for all to see,
You laid it down for all to see,
[Maharishi] oooh you broke the rules.

One sunny day the world was waiting for a lover
She came along to turn on everyone
[Maharishi] the greatest of them all.

[Maharishi] how did you know,
The world was waiting just for you,
The world was waiting just for you,
[Maharishi] oooh how did you know.

[Maharishi] you'll get yours yet,
However big you think you are,
However big you think you are,
[Maharishi] oooh you'll get yours yet.

We gave her everything we owned just to sit at her table,
Just a smile would lighten everything,
[Maharishi] she's the latest and the greatest of them all.

She made a fool of everyone...

However big you think you are...
