The Beatles...

they're too overrated...

over rated? they basically invented the rock phenomena!

TRUE, TRUE...

@north_star: you need to read on, look for information & get to know who THE BEATLES are. No Pun Intended, but The Beatles have made a lot of great innovations in the music industry and in fact, you are enjoying most of them right now.
You can also try to go deep with the artists you like (noting the fact that most of the artists you like are British ---Mel C., Coldplay, etc.). Believe me, I certainly bet that they have THE BEATLES as one of their biggest influences.

I think this list is in good order! ... to emphasize their impact on the music world, I can't remember the name of the classical conductor, but he made a comment in one of the Beatles documentaries that the song She's Leaving Home from the Sgt. Pepper's album is a CLASSICAL PIECE.... and when you say they're overrated, MAN what's your musical IQ?!

it's interesting that you've noticed my "audio inclinations," however i still think that legends they are, they've become overrated. i guess i'm not into oldies whether they are the innovators or the hitmakers of their time and whether they still influence today's music/artists.

it's a simple fact that i'm not into them, i'm not keen about them and i don't have time to dig their music. call it lame but i remain nonchalant. it doesn't mean that if i like a couple of british acts, i necessarily have to like the beatles. :idea:

calling the beatles overrated is just like calling britney spears a musical genius

and your proposition is? :

... and john lennon shouted to the world:
"We are famous than GOD!""
so many months later, john lennon was shot down dead.
GOD proved him wrong.
and yes! my papa is so crazy about the beatles. i actually grew up with all their songs. albums, collectors items- we have it all.

i believe he said "we are more famous than jesus" and obviously it's true... nothin wrong with bein famous... being more famous doesn't mean more powerful... mas daghan lang na kaila/ni admire nila than ni jesus

i believe he said "we are more famous than jesus"
