John Lennon was extremely self-critical of his catalogue. The songs he wanted the world to remember forever include gems like "Help!", "I Wanna Hold Your Hand", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Mother" and "Give Peace a Chance" - honest, emotional and iconic tracks.
The ones he hated: "Hello Goodbye", "Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da", "Across the Universe", "Run For Your Life" and especially "It's Only Love", which he called "the most shameful song I've ever written" because of the lyrics.
This list reveals the human genius behind the myth: an artist who loved his most profound creations and regretted his more commercial ones. What's your favorite by Lennon?
