I want to ask, I doing a study. And it's for anyone 14-21, I just want to ask you guys do you listen to The Beatles? Do you find them timeless? If they aren't one of your favorites at least do you think they are good?

I was never a huge fan of the Beetles, couldn't really see what they did that was so amazing.

You don't have to like them, It's your opinion and that's cool.

I don't like the Beatles, but I like Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley, so, I do appreciate older music.

I'm 18 by the way. All my friends hate my music, so whenever they're in my car we just listen to the radio. They always ask "JOHNNY CASH AGAIN?!"

They're OK, I listen to a lot of classic rock but I've never seen why they were such a huge band. If some of their music comes on the radio I'll listen to it but I won't download any of it.

They're kinda like Radiohead for me. I like what they did/are doing for music, but most of their stuff does nothing to me.

I know a lot of people my age who like The Beatles. And I listen to them casually, so I'd say yes.

But I think the whole, "The Beatles are the greatest band that was/is/ever will be," attitude is a lot less common these days, though.

Such as and including??

No offense, but I'm fifteen, and I can't stand listening to any bands from 1990-today. I am afraid to turn on my radio.

I love the Beatles, and I really wish I was alive when they were together.

John and Paulare some of the best composers that I have heard.

Bah, you guys are lame.

The Beatles, Revolver and Rubber Soul are some of the best albums ever written. Do you realize how much they've done for music? How much they changed? For me, they're timeless. One of the few groups that I never get tired of... I can always put on any of those albums and enjoy it.

Im a couple years out of the age group though...

Seems like you've only heard their earlier stuff like 'i wanna hold your hand'. Their latter years where anything but 'simple'.

Yeah, I mean if you don't like the music, you don't like the music. That's just you. But it's a little ridiculous to me that so many people go around completely trashing them. They worked their asses off and ended up being part of a push that innovated music.

I like most everything they put out but I feel like a lot of people who are trashing them haven't listened to very much of their music. I could understand their first couple of albums coming off as boring and simple but they eventually took things to a much higher level. They ended up as a studio band because the music was too complicated to produce live. I dunno how anyone could really think songs like Tomorrow Never Knows or Happiness is a Warm Gun are boring. They created such a mood with their music.

I enjoy their music quite a bit. Though, that's mainly because of McCartney. What a wonderfully underrated bassist he is.

I'm seventeen, by the way.

I enjoy the Beatles simply because I think they were creative and made some really memorable albums like Rubber Soul, Abbey Road, the White Album, and even Sgt. Peppers.

They don't interest me. In my view, they did something to change music but now music has evolved beyond the Beatles.

This is true......The Beatles were fine in their day but music has evolved a bit.

It may have evolved, but I prefer older music like Johnny Cash and Elvis.

The King of Rock is an appropriate title for him. I don't like the biased, unfounded, bull**** rumors about racism and Elvis though. His music did more for the civil rights movement than people give him credit for. He partied with everybody.

I be 14 and I really do like the Beatles and John Lennon's solo work.

I mean, where do you find timeless songs like "Let It Be", "Imagine", "Hey Jude" anywhere else but from the brilliant mind of John Lennnon? In my opinion he is the best musical artist who ever lived...
