We're one step closer to finding out which Beatles song is the GOAT, and this week gives us four fun contenders: I'm Happy Just to Dance with You, Birthday, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away and No Reply. But wait there's more! Anne Murray! Oasis! Dylan! Happy George! Hand Clap Mal! We're gonna have a good time!

It's hotting up as we get steadily closer to finding out which Beatles song towers above all others, though this week is a bit of a big brown bag of randomness (inside a zoo). Stepping up to the plate are Tell Me What You See, Within You Without You, Baby You're a Rich Man & Honey Don't.... Honey Don't.... Honey Don't.... Honey Don't.  Best listened to accompanied by a Hohner Pianet.

A mad mix of songs have come out of the box, as four more random Beatles tracks contend to become the Greatest of All Time. In play this week are Baby It's You, Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da, Slow Down & Lady Madonna. One of these songs completely divides us, though it might not be the one you think....

It's the battle of the Revolvers this week, as I'm Only Sleeping takes on And Your Bird Can Sing, with Chains and Sexy Sadie in the mix as well. Along the way, we'll identify a hidden yawn,  discuss a blatant lyric ripoff, and ponder whether one of the songs is about Frank Sinatra or a wind-up clock. It's that kind of week.

Lovers of cowbells, claps, jets and waltzes will be well served this week, as another four Beatles songs go head to head. Will it be I Call Your Name, Eight Days a Week, Back in the USSR or I Me Mine that makes the cut? Free fade in with every episode.

Melancholy, Acid, financial bitterness and 'Pepper Lite' this week, as Golden Slumbers, She Said She Said, Taxman & Magical Mystery Tour enter on stage and present their cases for going through to the next round. If you hadn't had your fill of John Lewis Christmas ad chat, this is your week.

This heat has a beginning, a middle and an end, unlike one of the songs this week which just jumps in halfway through. We put The Night Before, For No One, I Feel Fine and Hold Me Tight up against each other, and one will emerge the winner. Comes with half a scoop and two battered cod.

We're taking to the skies this week, as Heat 25 brings another eclectic mix of Beatles tracks together in our quest to find the greatest of all time. Will Flying fly or crash and burn? Do we say 'Thank You' or 'No, Thank You Girl'? Is You Know My Name (Look Up The Number) disconnected? Can we take The Word at its word?? So many questions - only one answer!

Welcome to the heat that includes the second most misogynistic Beatles song ever, according to the internet. This week, Devil in Her Heart, You Can't Do That, Across the Universe and Doctor Robert go head to head. We hope the result doesn't let you down and leave you flat.

The heats continue on the journey to the Greatest Beatles Song of All Time, and head ups - this week's an odd one. We face the choice of elevating You Really Got a Hold on Me, Think for Yourself, Happiness is a Warm Gun or Yer Blues. Yup...

A burst of optimism, sunshine and capitalism cascades over our heat this week, as Good Day Sunshine, Money (That's What I Want), Got to Get You Into My Life and Julia go up against each other for the win. And sorry Vulture... we're not agreeing with you on 'worst Beatles song ever'

Break out your white suit, and descend the staircase to Heat 19, as we put another four random Beatles songs to the test.

If you ever thought we had any control over the random song draws, this week should dissuade you of that notion. Piggies, I Don't Want to Spoil the Party, Things We Said Today and For You Blue go head to head and, amazingly, one will triumph and head to the next round. But which one?

We're at Heat 16 AKA the 'curios and oddballs' heat, as our random selection brings us four very quirky and very different songs to choose from: With A Little Help from My Friends, Boys, Hey Bulldog and Old Brown Shoe. Just to warn you now: Rob's mild distaste for Pepper may rear its head again...

Rubber Soul fans - this is your week, as two tracks go head to head to be this week's champion. I'm Looking Through You and You Won't See Me (erm... so that means they're both invisible right?) take on Because and Cry Baby Cry.  Four songs. One winner. Much Moog.
