So am I, I'm just picking the better song though and a lot of that is down to how good it is from the artist. Here comes the Sun for me is one of those Beatles tracks I'm often happy to skip. Sits better in the album than stand alone too

Another feel good song for me, agree it’s not their best but always makes me smile.
