Most people would say that "Revolution 9" (from the White Album) is the worst Beatles song, seeing as how it's pretty much just eight and a half minutes (their longest song) of eerie sound effects, other Beatles songs played backwards, creepy maniacal laughter, and random conversations all mixed with somebody repeating the words "number nine, number nine" over and over again.
The first time I heard it, I was pretty creeped out. When you listen to the entire White Album, it's especially creepy because the song before it is a very creepy song in a minor key. But now, the more I hear it the more I like it, but it's still my least favorite Beatles song.

Hey my favorite is Ob-La-Di too! You are right there are a lot of people that don't care for that one. I think it's on of those love it or hate it songs.

Some other Beatles songs I like are:
I Want to Hold Your Hand
She Loves You
Rock and Roll Music

THE worst Beatles song is "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" from their album Abbey Road. Overall, the lyrics, musical arrangements, the way Paul sings this tune etc. is annoying for me to hear. I must say though that "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" is one of the very few disappointments I have with The Beatles as musicians.
