    This has got to be the dumbest thing I've heard anyone say in the last few hours.

            You got to be fucking kidding me? How many times most a band catch lightening in a bottle, before they're considered the greatest?

            Rubber Soul - Revolver - Sgt Pepper - The Beatles (White) - Abbey Road.

            ^I mean, how much more can one band do? Even Let it Be, Magical Mystery Tour, and Help! are better albums than 95% of bands - at their absolute peak. Let alone the five albums I mentioned above, which are all ranked in the Top 25 albums of all time - any reputable music list. YES! Five albums! Plus, Plastic Ono Band!

            Real respects real. Nothing to do with being overrated, those who give the beatles an unbiased listen, will realize the beatles are the greatest. Opperative word being, "unbiased", most judge the beatles simply on the 'love me do' songs. Yet do not recognize the extent/magnitude of their catalogue. Practically every fucking genre.

                                        Damn silly topic... whether you like their music or not, The Beatles were pivotal in the development of today's music recording and performing industries. I doubt you could over-rate them.

                                        You might argue that the time was right and lots of other factors were involved, but once Decca signed The Rolling Stones to allow them to compete with EMI (who had signed The Beatles), the music business exploded on both sides of the Atlantic as everyone started playing catch-up.

                                        It isn't just the music itself they influenced. If bands hadn't progressed beyond clubs and 1,000-seat theaters, we would never have seen the huge shows that playing in stadiums made affordable. The money the 60's bands generated made "pop" respectable and changed the face of radio and (to a lesser extent) TV. You could make a case that the growth of the music industry was the catalyst which made teens one of the most attractive consumer groups to a whole range of industries from fashion through electronics.

                                          I wish people who don't know anything about or aren't involved in music would withhold their worthless opinions. It would save the ones who are, much frustration, and it would save people like DarkJedi from publically exposing themselves as ignorant douchebags. Cheerio.

                                                    Seriously, The Beatles are the most influential band of all time and they put together the most extraordinary body of work.

                                                    Anyone who even suggests The Beatles are overrated is just ignorant.

                                                        "They" didn't dub the band more popular than Jesus dude, that is something John Lennon himself said to the media, and was subsequently all but crucified for saying it. He later clarified his previous statement and apologized not in so many words, but by then thousands of people had begun burning Beatles records and memorabilia.

                                                          Like any artists, The Beatles will be remembered for their influence and their body of work.

                                                            Although I agree their music was great, I think that their popularity was helped along by the fact that they came along at a time when TV went from black & white to colour.

                                                            They were the ultimate in novelty when novelty was in it's peak. The way they sounded, the way they spoke and by the way they looked etc. It's why they called it an "invasion", it was something very new.
