Had don't become secret again, name of John Lennon always is written front of name of Paul McCartney in each song which they create. Is this means John Lennon more better is compared to Paul McCartney?

The reason that the names appear in the order Lennon McCartney is alphabetical I think, but the Beatles songs were done together and I don't know who wrote the most, or who wrote the lyrics and who wrote the melody, the only way to compare them is to compare the songs written as solo artists Imagine by Lennon is amazing, but I think McCartneys Ebony and Ivory and We all Stand together are too. Lennon unfortunately left too soon so we don't know what his career would have been like but I think all 4 of the Beatles were amazing musicians that left their mark and changed the music world.

Alphabetical may be the reason why the name of John Lennon is always placed in front of the name of Paul McCartney. Your opinion is very logical. Both Lennon or McCartney, each have advantages and disadvantages.

a b c d e f g h i j k l m. They probably thought that was the fairest way to list the names. But then Harrison would have come first. Hmmm I don't know the definite answer. I do believe Lennon had the most introspective depth of any singer/composer. Paul McCarney is marvelous too but John Lennon is that rarity that happens once or twice per century.

Hello, well personally I think John Lennon is better than Paul in a sense that his compositions for me convey deeper meanings and also I think John has more composition than Paul? Well As I have said, I'm not sure of this but anyone is welcome to correct me if I have it wrong and if they want to educate me on this I would welcome them whole heartedly because I'm a huge fan of beatles... =)
