10. The Beatles - "Don't Bother Me"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxJ9vmdDEww Although George Harrison would've rather you forgot all about the very first song he wrote for The Beatles (he even went so far as to say "it mightn't even be a song at all"), there is every reason to appreciate "Don't Bother Me" from With The Beatles. For starters, it's the track that proved to Harrison's many disparagers in the press that he was every bit as capable of writing songs as John and Paul. "Don't Bother Me" was an exercise Harrison had to do, lest he continue his role alongside Ringo as one of the not-so-important members of the band. (Ringo would try to prove his songwriting credentials much later...with less appreciable results.) It got the critical monkey off his back, so to speak, and it rightly shut up the music journalists who questioned his creative aptitude. Those same journalists would continue to eat crow for many years to come, as Harrison wrote some of the most important songs, including "Here Comes the Sun" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
