What is the best Beatles "folk rock" style song?

Good song, but not folk at all. More like a proto-power ballad.

 

I agree. I should have included it in the poll.

 

I'm on the fence about No Reply, but I should have included it anyway.

 

Dig It.

Dig that Dylan influence.

 

I had

I've Just Seen a Face
Norwegian Wood
Two of Us
Baby's In Black
I'm Looking Through You

Believe it or not No Reply would bump Norwegian Wood, I think...

 

I would have voted for If I Needed Someone if it were an option.

 

It's not a folk song though.

 

I've Just Seen a Face
best folk rock, best country, best bluegrass song.

 

"You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" No. 1 by a fair margin

Then to round out the top 5 for me:

I'm Looking Through You
It's Only Love
Norwegian Wood
Two of Us

 

Yesterday and Rocky Raccoon have the same number of votes? This forum never ceases to amaze me.

 

Poll says "folk rock" not folk; it sounds just like Bells of Rhymney by the Byrds, that's about as folk rock as it comes.

 

You've Got To Hide Your Love Away. If I close my eyes, I can almost hear Dylan.

 

You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
I Don't Want To Spoil The Party
I've Just Seen A Face
Two Of Us
I'm A Loser

 

You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
Norwegian Wood
I'm Looking Through You
Mother Nature's Son
And not listed, Across the Universe

 

I've Just Seen A Face
I'll Be Back
Norwegian Wood
Girl
Two Of Us

 

Yes, but with a better voice.

Just kidding. But it's a great vocal by Lennon, in my opinion. I find that on his 'loser' songs like this one he strikes such a perfect balance of plaintive and bitter.
