I liked the Beatles songs when I was a small child, but I no longer like them.  Some of them IMO are absolute cack.

I liked the Rolling Stones songs more, well I loved them and still do.

Same could be said for Rolling Stones and Elvis TBH. I'm saying this as a Beatles fan mind you.

Someone said the Stones made no decent pop songs.  I’m the weirdo that prefers the later Stones material (post Some Girls) to the vastly popular stuff.  I acknowledge the greatness of Sympathy for the Devil and a couple others, but for my money Tattoo You was their best album.  Waiting on a Friend is as good as they get.  That said, I admit being obtuse on this matter:

Sad to see the Mary Hopkin song get the boot so soon (within hours of this post) I rather like and certainly remember it.  Not worth voting for maybe but there are at least half a dozen other less memorable that should go first.

(Edit: screw it she gets a point from me.  She won’t get votes because 1) the youngsters never heard the song and 2) old people like me it hits too close to home as we face oncoming death in the next 15 years.)

Well, the Stones aren't a pop band.  Their music is mainly rock and blues.   I don't know why you would expect pop songs from them.
