Which Beatles songs you wished Love(classic lineup) would've covered

Songs with Bryan on lead vocals
Blackbird
While my guitar gentle weeps
Here comes the sun
A Day in a Life
You've Got To Hold Your Love Away
Norwegian Wood
We Can Work It Out
Yesterday(this is THE song should've covered)

I had picked this song because they are close to the style I had picture what Bryan could have been influenced by:

*Folk rock
*Baroque pop/rock with flirating with the psychedelic rock-popish feel
For simplicity we can label Bryan with a "popish" leaning like Paul.


For Arthur I would pick some "harder" edge songs like "Helter Skeler", "Day Tripper"

Why didn't Love ever cover '65-'66 Beatles era in at least the first album? They could've at least got some nod from the Fab Four and maybe even did a collaboration with them.







This is the time and life that I am living
And I'll face each day with a smile

In fact the only Beatles related song that any line-up of Love performed for certain was Lennon's Instant Karma....which Arthur combined into a medley with Everybody's Gotta Live, back in 2002.

It is an interesting point that for everything that's been written about Love during the last 15-20 years, there seems to be a tremendous shortage of setlist information. We seem to know more about the 1969-70 period because of the available live recordings - but as for the original band, it remains much more difficult....the information we have is fragmentary at best.
