The Kinks are my 2nd favorite group and I generally list this as their best song and my personal favorite so to me it is fine to have it be this high in the countdown!ġ. Never expected a song that didn't chart in the US to get this high. I had thought it might make the top 500, but when it hadn't turned up yet I figured it didn't make the list. And it is catchy as heck and it still gets me excited any time I hear it come on the radio! She Loves You may have been the one that really put the Beatles over the top in the UK, but I Want To Hold Your Hand did it in the USA and I believe it is a better song, so it will rate above that in my list, but probably behind the rest of the Beatles songs in my list. Heck it may not even be their best early single (I'd go with Please Please Me), but no question that, at least in the USA, it is their most important single, and certainly would rank in the top 5 of most important songs by any artist. This is certainly not the Beatles best song. COOL! MY TWO FAVORITE GROUPS GET SONGS BACK TO BACK!!!
