As with many Beatles tunes, there's some dispute over who contributed what and to what degree to "In My Life, but most agree that its primarily a Lennon composition, both in melody and lyric. I guess much of the original lyric was very Liverpool specific, but John later replaced the references with a more general reflection on his life.
Rolling Stone ranks "In My Life" at number 23 on its list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and number 5 on its The Beatles 100 Greatest Songs list.
Song: "In My Life"
