Now thats funny. How many musicians today can actually play an instrument? Music today has replaced the Zeppelins, Fleetwood Macs, Pink Floyds with Eminem. Yep, much better now. :1orglaugh |

Go to their early albums with all the harmonizing, those were done on a two track, live in the studio .That means singing and playing at the same time. What made Elvis great was he was the first white man to sell black music to a white audience no one had done that before him and to be very sexual in his moves. ED Sullivan only showed him from the waist up.What makes Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath so incredible,people don't understand there was nothing like their music before them it was totally new. These people were pioneers. |
The Beatles broke ground in music. Many of their songs are still top rate, even after 40 years. Much of their work has been addapted to classical and easy listening versions.
No other band even comes close. The Rolling Stones? What a joke!! The Beatles are unquestionably the greatest rock and roll band that ever lived. |
The reason why younger people today think the Beatles suck is because by today's standards, music can only be good if it's somehow 'hard'. In other words, the "singer" has to be from the hood, sing about killing or sex, or the guitars have to be loud and distorted with a kid screaming into a mic pretending to be rebelious when he's actually a upper middle class surburnite. It's pathetic, there's no freedom or individuality in music anymore.
Good music needs no posturing or phony attitudes. |

yep Madonna changes a lot of stuff for the younger cultures and she's still very important and some areas to some people . . Her song about abortion was revolutionary at the time. She set fashion trends etc . . And invented 'metrosexuls' :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh --------------------- |

The Beatles rewrote the book of how its done and you cannot escape their influence in any form of music no matter what it is.
Love them or not, Their importance and influence on modern culture cannot be over estimated. |
The best band I've known so far. (IMHO)
|
According to the research I did two years back, boyband history originated from them.

You say you love the beach boys Did you know brian willson locked himself in a room with the beatles white ablum playing over and over just before he wrote pet sounds? |
I like some of their songs, but I was never really a fan of the band.
|
Over rated. Jeez. Gimme a break. As Thing Fish would say, "Boy your ignint."
There is a Beatles album for everyone. Pepper, Let it Be, Rubber Soul, White... Purchasing a greatest hits collection is listening to the songs out of context. Each album has it's own flavor and should be enjoyed individually for the experience. |
trust me i could possible change your mind after a couple of posts, but with like 1bil people that do not find beatles overated it won't make any difference ;)

For their time and what they did and how the people reacted would be comparitable to the Australian band of Daddy Cool at the time. To date both are still talked about, musicaly copied/inspired off and both still make nice coin from their albums.
Wether or not people like the Beatles thats debatable, but their longlevity and success is easy to see. -N |
bleh. you can't like the beach boys without liking the beatles... they developed in tandem and in creative opposition to each other.. without rubber soul, Brian wouldn't have written some of his best songs they way he did and vice versa with pet sounds.
