How can a song like Eleanor Rigby get to number one, or Paperback Writer ? They are weak songs if you ask me, yet it seems just cause the "Beatles" sang those songs, they're popular.

how the **** can THE BEATLES, the most overplayed band in history, possibly be underrated?!
I don't dislike The Beatles but I barely ever listen to them of my own accord. Loads of more interesting rock out there, and I've just grown tired of the sound of them.

People like different types of songs, those are easily accessible.Last edited by Repeddled; 07-27-2011, 06:57 PM.

To be honest, musical influence makes no difference to me, I just like what I like to listen to.
That might be part of WHY the Beatles are overrated, cause people also base their appraisal on the impact they had on music as a whole, where as I think that should be irrelevant when accessing the songs they made.

Originally posted by AntonTheGreat View Postthey broke up in 1970. everything they did, they did before they where all 30. i guarantee that all the bands that anyone would bother to name as the greatest band in there opinion, be it queen, black sabbath, zeppelin tried to do what the Beatles after the Beatles did it. the fact that you might find other bands more interesting shouldn't matter when they're your rock band's favorite rock band.
