exactly my point bird brain boy...you know it but it's not your cup of tea, which is unlike the majority of people here who think all theyre known for is I Wanna Hold Your Hand...and why DONT they listen to chopin or starvinsky...take the time out to explore ffs...ive listened to Mozart and Tchaikovsky and i respect and enjoy their music, but theyre nowhere near my favs...at the very least i can tell you this confidently...
everyone should drop their bull Gorillaz or Coldplay or Black Eyed Peas and listen to Abbey Road once, just once...thats all...its not so hard... |

| I've listened to quite a lot of Beatles in my day (my dad is a hippie). Not really my style. There are quite a few good songs that I really dig, but overall, I don't really like old rock too much. I used to be a Doors fiend though... |

i'm very familiar with the beatles' work, but have generally found them overrated (sacrilege, yes i know). if we're talking about '60s bands, there are bands I enjoy a lot more: simon/garfunkel, gordon lightfoot, mamas/papas and harry chapin on the folksey side; doors, stones, jimi, and janis joplin on the rock side.

edit: i saw DM during the Exciter tour @ jones beach and they were great. will def. see them again. |

I am not tryin to rip.....but the Beatles aren't overrated. I think that sometimes people just listen to the surface of a Beatles song instead of digging deep and listening to the use of the guitars, drums, voices, the things they changed in the music world, they opened up an entire generation to Rock music, pushed to try something new and different. They weren't afraid of what people said about them and as a result they made even the simplest song complex, original and unique. No bands or DJ's for that matter can say they have done that, okay maybe a few ;) but as a whole most people are followers and the Beatles were leaders.
Just my 2 cents |

this is what i like to see...i can totally understand where you guys are coming from...yeah, they could be overrated: when the world over idolizes them as gods, you cant help but sit back and go "ok wait, there ARE other bands out there"...
from the 60's i love simon and garfunkel, mammas and the pappas, the stones, jimi, and dylan... |
