    I just thought this list of all 11 Beatles songs that Ringo sang lead on would be worthwhile information for someone to have.

    Ringo Only Sang 11 Songs With The Beatles

    Actually that would make for a pretty interesting compilation album if you put the songs in chronological order. :)

    And George Harrison only played slide guitar on one. ONE. That is worse than Pol Pot.

    Not a bad number really. How many did George sing I wonder?

    Edit: George sang on 28 songs.

    personally i think its 12 songs, Flying to me sounds like Ringo singing, maybe in unison with the others but I think I hear Ringo vocalising more !!

    This is why I've been known to comment, when people peg his solo career as "lackluster" (or similar), "what did you expect?" Aside from a few of those tunes, there's little remarkable there. Yet it's pretty easy to assemble a couple cds worth of high-quality pop songs from his solo output. So I'd maintain his solo career turned out better than one would've guessed...

    When he sings on Carry That Weight, it's the vocal that I hear the most.

    Ringo was offered either 'Strawberry Fields' or 'Penny Lane' by John &a Paul but turned them down! :hide:

    I wonder why Ringo didn't get to sing a verse of "Free As A Bird" since Paul and George had one.

    Yeah you get 14 throwing in Trouble, Weight and Flying. Them you can sneak up to 17 with I Am the Greatest, Picasso, Taking a Trip to Carolina, and that spoken intro to Yellow Sub from Anthology.

    And since you were going for Carry That Weight, may as well let it play out through the drum solo.

    Now you have a whole CDR

    "With A Little Help From My Friends" fits Ringo perfectly.
