Today's list is the second-to-last installment in a series that has run every Friday for the last six weeks, in which I've highlighted my favorite lesser-known Beatles tracks.

John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr wrote and recorded such consistently amazing songs that, even if you ignore all their #1 hits and everything on their famous Red and Blue best-of compilations (which I've been doing for these more obscure Beatles lists), there are still dozens and dozens of amazing songs, some of which you might've missed along the way—even if The Beatles are the biggest, most influential band in rock history.

As you get familiar with (or rediscover) these songs, I think some of them might even surpass your old, more-overplayed favorites.

This week's list is dedicated Laura Martin who helped me brainstorm my Beatles list two weeks ago and, until now, went largely unthanked.
"I’ll Get You" 
The B-side of "She Loves You," this Lennon song is the perfect mix of sweetness and swagger; the sweetness embodied by the verse lyrics and the song’s sugary harmonies, and the swagger by Ringo’s thumping beat and Lennon’s just-shy-of-cocky chorus hook.
