Did the Beatles have even ONE song that was any good?

[Big Dick McGee]

Eh, "Bang Bang Maxwell's Silver Hammer" was pretty good. The rest is all shite.

 

[jack]

sHUT THE FUCK UP, ASSHOLE

 

[Kerb Crawler]

Just listened to Revolver this morning.

"Tomorrow Never Knows," gents. Awesome.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

Seriously, the only Beatles album I could stomach for more than two minutes is Abbey Road. I think they are seriously overrated by middle-aged former drug abusers who sold out and wish they, themselves were as "revolutionary" as the Beatles were.

The Who, The Kinks, The Rolling Stones, Mott the Hoople, and Van Halen were all better than the Beatles.

 

[Kerb Crawler]

Why compare? Who cares? All those bands, The Beatles included, are great!

Yay, music!

 

[jack]

That's so bullshit. "Mott The Hoople"??

Pass that blunt over here BDM, that must be some good skank yer huffin'.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

I just think people overrate the Beatles. They were ok, but don't have an orgasm everytime you hear 'em.

Christ, Nirvana was better than the Beatles. They just didn't have the longevity. God Damned Courtney Love.

 

[jack]

Nirvana was the SAME as the Beatles, Cobain and Lennon were quite similar in many respects musically. Same groundbreaking stuff same prescient vision.

I Saw Her Standing There? Who else was doing that shit in 63. NEIL FUCKING SEDAKA?

 

[Kerb Crawler]

You have to look at the band in the context of the time they were performing in. Nirvana is not "great" musically, by any stretch of the imagination, but time and place, man. They were relevant - and can continue to BE relevant - but you have consider what was going on in the world.

And people ALWAYS feel more strongly about those brilliant sparks extinguished before their time. (Joplin, Hendrix, Cobain, Lennon, Morrison, et al.)

The Beatles might be overrated, musically, but that's not all they represent. Just like Elvis.

 

[jack]

Lennon was a FUCKING ARTIST, HE WAS SENSITIVE TO SHIT, HE THREW UP BEFORE HE WENT ON STAGE HE COULD MAKE A GUITAR SPEAK.

If he could be a fisherman he would've but he couldnt BECAUSE HE WAS A FUCKING GENIUS

HE WAS THE WALRUS! PAUL WAN'T THE WALRUS (he was just saying that to be nice) BUT HE WAS ACTUALLY THE WALRUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111111111111111111

 

[Kerb Crawler]

Jack have you ever seen the movie "Backbeat?"

 

[Big Dick McGee]

The Rutles were better than the Beatles.

Oh, and Spinal Tap ROXORZ THE BEATLES SOXORZZ!

 

[Kerb Crawler]

SMELL TEH GLOVE!

 

[Shatna]

Wow, who can argue with such subjective expertise as all that? Agreed, Beatles sucked. The end.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

I'm glad SOMEONE sees my argument is unimpeachable!

 

[jack]

Clinton was impeac hed too, remember?

 

[Big Dick McGee]

Yes, and rightly so. He broke the law, and Kenn Starr was doing his job. If you can't see that, you're a hypocrite.

 

[DarthSikle]

beatles sucked

 

[curiousa2z]

wow...where'd Ken Starr come from?
not a huge Beatles fan either, but I was just gonna say I liked "Working Class Hero".
now might not be the time.

 

[Morrhigan]

Beatles music may not be to your taste, but they had a HUGE influence on rock music. They did things no one else had done before, not just with lyrics, melody and harmony, but with technology as well. In that respect, they were indeed fuckin' awsome.
