Since both of these songs are on Magical Mistery Tour and since i like them both, i usually try to choose which one is better. As always i can't make up my mind, so i'm asking you guys!

I'd have to go with Strawberry fields too. I like Penny Lane, but I can listen to "SF" more.

I'd chose Strawberry. I love this song very much, I like psycsedellic sonds, plus, this one is really meaningful and has a lot to say. I love the tune and the lyrics.

I like PennyLane too.

For me it has to be Strawberry Fields - it was so innovative and original, plus it's a really beautiful song.

Has anyone else heard the VERY early version that John tries to play in the new Beatles US DVD?

I choose Strawberry Fields. I love the music and the lyrics. I've never really liked Penny Lane.

Penny Lane is better (I didn't vote).

I know this is HIGHLY contrary to the fact that SFF is beloved by all Beatle fams, yet to me PL has always been a nearly perfect pop record, perhaps the best ever.

Strawberyy Fields, definitely.  It just has a much more interesting, less-pop-like sound than Penny Lane.  Don't get me wrong, I love Penny Lane, but not as much as Strawberry Fields.

It's on "The First Visist DVD" - the one that was only released last week. There's a scene in their hotel room where John is playing what looks like a small flute with a tiny keyboard attached. He is working on the opening chords (the part that was later played by Paul on the Mellotron keyboard. I couldn't believe it when I heard that - I mean, that was filmed about 3 years before The Beatles started their studio recording of it!

It's only a short clip though unfortunately!
