I mean, I do too
but "Hold Me Tight" is super lightweight, "Dance With You" is awkward and George's vox kinda suck, "Bird Can Sing" is corny and coasts on its riff (Lennon was embarrassed by it FWIW), "Revolution 9" is dull, and both "Dig It" and "Maggie Mae" are kinda fun but ultimately pointless. I do agree that "Goodnight" works well in context but as a standalone song it's pretty lame. I mean, it sounds like what it is- Ringo singing John's attempt to write a traditional-sounding lullaby for Sean, complete with schmaltzy arrangement. I generally don't actively *dislike* anything The Beatles did but thought they were the most obvious choice for this exercise.
