What is the most out-of-the-ordinary song by the Beatles that you like the
most?
My pick goes to "Bungalow Bill" - come on, pick a more singable White Album
song, I dare you!! :-)

I LOVE to sing along with that song... but then I sing along with ALL the
Beatle songs... they're ALL my favorite............. ;^)

Well, it's pretty subjective what "un-Beatlesque" means, but I love
these....
down-and-dirty-bluesy: Come Together, Yer Blues, Helter Skelter,
I've Got a Feeling
down-and-dirty-bluesy, plus weird proggy bits: I Want You (She's So
Heavy)
odd soul pastiche: Got to Get You into My Life
hootenanny: I've Just Seen a Face
totally "Lennon": Julia, I'm So Tired
totally "George": Within You Without You, Piggies, Savoy Truffle
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
totally "Paul": Ob La Di Ob La Da, Rocky Raccoon, Good Day Sunshine
'70s pop ballad, a few years too early: Something
unusually far into pure psychedelia: It's All Too Much, Tomorrow
Never Knows

I know this is going to sound weird, but I've always really liked "Flying."

That's not weird to me at all. I first heard it in he 80's as background
music on the radio show "Ticket to Ride" with Scott Muni. It wasn't until
maybe 10 years later that I realized it was a Beatles' song when I got the
MMT CD.
(I had all the other albums on tape, but that one was somehow missing.)

Me too. Particularly the affected "singing voice" of the background
vocals, which always reminded me of Lewis Carroll or The Wizard of Oz,
somehow.
