"With all the excitement around the announcement of The Beatles finally coming to iTunes, we couldn't help but share our enthusiasm by giving away five Beatles box sets on iTunes. \nWe asked you to share what your favorite Beatles song is and why. After considering about 500 submissions, we've chosen our five favorites \u2014 but it wasn't easy. \nClearly The Beatles continue to resonate with men and women, young and old, across the globe. Submissions recalled songs spanning the band's entire career, and reasons for loving the group ranged from sentimental memories to appreciation for a good guitar riff.\nOur winners represent the best responses of the bunch. Here they are:\n\"Let It Be\"I'm 28, but I will never forget my parents, who grew up with them, telling me after hearing this song that it's only now that they realize how prolific and prophetic the voice of the Beatles was at a time when the world was in such upheaval, from civil war riots, the war in Vietnam, corruption in the government and a generation looking for love and to express love. It's this same voice and sound that is need for us today, in this midst of all we face whether it be economic, political, environmental or cultural. \u2014 Joel Hickenbottom, Ventura County, California\n\"Get Back\"I am deaf. The loudest things I can hear without my hearing aids are fireworks and airplane engines. Growing up, I never really had an interest in music because I could never really hear it clear enough to understand anything until one day my dad bought the Beatles 1 CD. With hearing aids and powerful headphones, I listened with some morbid curiosity (mostly because my dad wanted to expose me to a part of his childhood) but really had no idea who The Beatles were. While reading the lyrics intently and struggling to understand, I eventually taught myself enough lyrics to understand most of the songs.\nSo my favorite song is \"Get Back\" because this was the very first song ever I was ever able to understand on my own without someone else helping and it helped me connect with my dad in a way that was never possible before. It also was the song that opened the entire music world to me and I still listen to it often today. \u2014 Wyatte Hall, Washington, D.C.\n\"I Want You\"It proves great songs don't need to be littered with lyrics. (The Twitter of music?) \u2014 Rhen Wilson, Conway, Arkansas\n\"She Loves You\"The song is so upbeat and driving that I can't help but do the Paul head-bob. Yet I can definitely relate to the elegant lyrics about being so in love that you can't help but forgive, even when you're hurt. Finally, I love how you can hear part of this song at the end of \"All You Need Is Love\" \u2014 a self-referential wink to earlier days.\nTo me, \"She Loves You\" is the quintessential Beatles song. During the chorus I can envision a sea of screaming fans. If I had been 16 in 1964, I would have been right there with them. \u2014 Kara Findley, Indianapolis, Indiana\n\"Tomorrow Never Knows\"It reminds us to not take life so seriously. We don't hear that enough! \u2014 Bill Ritson, Baltimore, Maryland\nCongratulations to our winners and a big thank you to all who participated.
