64. Yeah, I remembered that after I posted "Imagine".

I think I even bought a 45 rpm copy of "Imagine" back in the 1980's - I also bought a 45 rpm copy of John Lennon's "Nobody Told Me" during the same time period.

The "Pass" option, which is automatically included in all DU polls, can be used the same as "Other"

I didn't mean to sound so "harsh" in my reply ...It's just that anytime I post a poll, I get replies like "How could you not include_____?"

And you are right... "Imagine" does not belong on the list, since it's not a "Beatles song"
However, it IS a very good song, so I think I'll leave it up there with a notation that it's by:
"John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band"
