His lyrics were better, but Macca wrote all the hits.
Lennon, even though he seemed to think that he was a god. >:D
Lennon, for In My Life...but these ain't bad either:
I Am the Walrus
Strawberry Fields Forever
If I Fell
Revolution
Norwegian Wood
A Hard Day's Night
Come Together
Dear Prudence
Help!
Nowhere Man
Please Please Me
All You Need Is Love (not true, but hey, it's the thought that counts 8) )
Mike Oldfield (on his best days)
But also, there isn't a dud in Sarge's list.

Mike Oldfield (on his best days)
Hard to believe his musical roots were here --

(I suggest these weren't his best days.)
I voted for John. We all know that in these non-blue-hair music, the lyrics make the hits.
Paul with his Beatles contributions very nearly equals John for his Beatles contributions.
Post-Beatles John was a one-hit wonder (Imagine). But Paul strung together many hits (not least Jet).
So, Paul.

I agree. Of course, post-Beatles John had the "Oh, No!" handicap.

I won't argue with that!
