    Neither is better, I just like Lennon more, he championed Jodorowsky's El Topo for one thing.

    Lennon was better, better songs, less obnoxious personality.

    Lennon, had a deeper and more intense value for life mentality.
    Stood up for his beliefs, never wavered.
    Never put himself above others, just a regular guy, a common man with uncommon talent.
    I actually met him and had a few beers with him, he was just a true people person.
    He had a great wit and was funny as all hell, he didn't think he was all that.

    A few years ago, I would have said Lennon hands down. Instant Karma trumps any of McCartney's solo work.

    Some of McCartney's side projects have some musical value, which I've only become aware of recently.

    Generally, I don't like questions like this, but here's my answer.

    Lennon is the template of the edgy rocker, and far better than any successors in that category.

    McCartney's a rocker completely plugged in to traditional pop songwriting.

    You can argue who is better strictly on which "type" is your favorite. My answer: It's a tie!

    Both are the same in my book, both of them have their strong points .
    Both have made songs that will go down in history as classic's.
    Between them and Harrison and Ringo they were the Beatles.. without ANY of them there would have been no Beatles and the world of music would have been so much poorer in everyway.

    I think his lyrics are more profound and relevant.

    Paul McCartney, I think he's better then Lennon. Although Lennon has wrote songs like Imagine. My favourites will always be I'm Looking Through You, For No One, Let it Be, Yesterday and many more. Many of Paul's songs are even mistakened to be John Lennon's.

    Paul McCartney has one superb album: "Ram" (Mainly composed by his then wife Linda) and a few good singles here and there. On the other hand, John Lennon was the creative force of The Beatles and the one who possessed the real talent for music out of the Fab Four.

    Although I'm sure it wasn't done intentionally, to even list Paul McCartney ahead of John Lennon in your poll is an aberration to us true music lovers.

    They were good together...when Yoko Ono came into the picture she for some reason ran Lennon's life and he did everything she told him to do...she ruined the Beatles but good. You can agree or not but they just were not the same after she appeared!! But if you look at the statistics/record sales...Paul McCartney did much better in his solo career!!
