Ringo Starr HATED These 4 Beatles Songs

Ringo Starr is the Beatle who expressed the least negatively about the band, always acting as the balance of the group, he rarely spoke badly about songs or works of his former bandmates. But in today's video, we compiled statements, books and interviews to find out which Beatles songs Ringo hated.

[Gondarth]

I wouldn't say Ringo hated Here Comes The Sun, he just found it to be a pain to find the right part for it. He played on it a couple more times and even featured it in the All Starr Band at one point as a tribute to George, so I don't think he ever truly hated it, certainly not on the level of Maxwell...

[mikewquan]

He probably hated the long process of recording Maxwell. Likely the same with George. Can imagine that John legitimately disliked it though!

Ringo may have been flustered during the sessions for Sun, but he delivered!

Paul's estrangement from the rest of the Beatles was due to a "song" called "Allen Klein Conned John, Paul & George But Paul Smelled a Rat (A Big, Fat New York Rat)".

[howie]

If Paul hadn't made Maxwell's Silver Hammer such a pain to record, I don't think the other Beatles would have hated it so much.

[nvm]

Ringo will be ringo and I didn’t really thought that ringo hated their songs honestly well maybe disliked but not hated

[Fuzcapp]

To say that every song Ringo sang for the Beatles was just album filler, isn't accurate. Yellow Submarine and With a Little Help from My Friends are both much beloved tracks, and great songwriting specifically for Ringo.

I think If You Got Troubles is one of the best performances they have ever laid onto tape, it’s a kick ass rocker that I enjoy playing.

It's unfortunate that hate's so trendy these days that the very word is featured as a marketing strategy. 🙄

Ringo's crazy if he doesn't think RAM is not only a good album, but a GREAT album. Lots of great songs on that album.

[brens]

Ram is a great album. Very weird that Ringo said that even with their tensions at the time

[PontiacS.]

"If You've Got Trouble" was Very Progressive. I think that's why it was excluded. I'm talkin' 'bout the 8th note focus on the Guitars.

For some time now, more videos about, 'John did not like this', or that, Paul, George, now Ringo etc etc . This band was unique, great. So why always about 'what 'he' does not I also see this more and more with other bands.... Looks like we are just interested to speak about things that did not work (so) well...instead of what went great. For me, it's almost like if we want to tarnish them, their image, their work.
When we think: how lucky we are to have their music in our life....like 'Here comes the sun' ...just to brighten my day each time I listen to it....

The opinion about Ram was asked when Paul and Ringo had a hard beef with each other.

[IsaacWale]

3:23 Don't you dare speak negatively of "What goes on"!

[aldonapolitano]

It's odd, the way a musician can "hate" a tune and yet it becomes one of their best efforts. He had to work on the changes but I can't help thinking that's why he played Here Comes the Sun so well. It didn't sound like classic Ringo but it was great to hear him go away from the familiar.

[JDSundeavors]

I feel compelled to use this opportunity to defend "If You've Got Trouble." I remember hearing it for the first time on the Anthology cassette in the summer of 1996, and it was a revelation to me then as a 9-year-old. I have experienced this dissonance with other Beatles songs, especially where George's compositions are concerned. However, even for its simplicity and seemingly decided-upon dislike, the song is strong in its energy and relatable angst. The main riff stabs, and the rhythm guitar rings against the key. It's practically proto-punk. "Go and count a ring or two."

[jomppe]

Poor Ringo. RAM is a classic Macca album. Here Comes the Sun might be a top-10 Beatles song.

[jrpipik]

Ringo often spoke in hyperbole, saying Maxwell took "weeks" when it took days, even if it felt like longer. So he HATES something because it's the WORST, with perhaps a good deal of exaggeration going on.

[tjdomerny]

Back in the USSR was done without Ringo, therefore he didn't like it. RAM holds up as a GREAT album.

[LeoRandall-lbgk]

I don't think any Beatles song is bad! They always put a lot of work into their music! They are people and no one is perfect! Enjoy music! Just think without music this life of ours would be dull, drab, worrisome, boring, and unenjoyable!
I love all music! Thank you Beatles and all the musicians who make music! God bless you! Godspeed!
