I like "I Want You" to an extent -- it's interesting that it started off the Abbey Road sessions, just weeks after Let it Be -- but I just find it too darn long. It especially drags on when you play it in Beatles Rock Band, although the singer is allowed a hugely long pee break.

I'm in the camp that loves "Because" ... a great tribute to the harmonic mastery of the fabs, three voices heard thrice to make a choir of nine. Abbey Road was the end of the road for the Beatles, at the end of the 1960s, and the album's tracks make me wonder what the Beatles of the 1970s would have sounded like. I realize you can get some flavor lumping their solo works together, but you have to wonder what the aforementioned Beatles filter would have done to enhance even the greatest solo songs.
