Best songs in the film?

Which songs do you think they did the best job on? I thought "I want you" and "Happiness is a warm gun" were pretty good. Umm, and "Strawberry Fields Forever" was alright, although I don't know if I like it as much as the other two I mentioned. But still, what do you lot think? Which ones do you think they did the best job on?
Oh, and "Let it Be" was really, freaking reaaalllly well done too. But I was thinking more in the sense of the characters, but now that I think about it that was probably the best done in the movie.

Hmm, I remember there was that really didn't do it for me, but I can't remember which. Oh! "for the benefit of Mr Kite" was totally not fond of the version in this movie. It was mainly the talking in it that kind of annoyed me.

There were literally no bad songs, which is amazing.

I Want To Hold Your Hand. What I like about it is it made me see it in a completely different way, realizing how sad it actually is. Glee did a similar treatment several years later.

I thought the whole Strawberry Fields Forever scene was outstanding.

I Wanna Hold Your Hand, and Something.

As good as -- or even better than -- the Beatles originals.
