[QUOTE="zoraluv"]

i'm going to come out and say it.. i think that they are apop band "internationally"

were they played on popular radio?

were they followed by a immense girl fans?

yes they were

so what do you guys think? were they or were they not?

EDIT: why do a lot of people say that they are the best?

zoraluv

They definitely started off as a (very good) pop band.

The thing about the Beatles is that they stopped touring and became a studio band. They created their best albums after they stopped touring altogether. Since they were a studio band, they had the freedom to be very experimental. As a result, they dabbled in all different kinds of music and even helped create new genres that exist today. They are considered the greatest band by many people because the were incredibly influential, were pioneers of many different aspects of music, and they made some damn good music.

Now I have a question for you. Have you ever listened to one of the Beatles' best albums from start to finish?

in your generation correct? they dealt with problems of your period of time?

pioneers of many different aspects of music? true. very true. but just like the beatles other bands came after them and "expermiened" with music and made it work for them and adding lyrics that connected with people of their time.. just like today.

and for the last part..

and no i've listen to "some" songs by the beatles

ever listenb to "firework" by katy perry? very good song

pink's "rasie yout glass?" another good pop song

but like any era not all music was good.. you'll always have that "hearthrob" (hanson anyone?)

the bombshell/boderline slut) madonna

my point is ... music evolves

The Beatles broke up before I was born, so the "your generation" comment strikes me as odd.

It's true that lots of bands have experimented, I'll give you that. But few have done it as successfully as the Beatles.

I have heard Firework. It's not a bad song at all, and I think it will motivate some people to do good. I've probably heard those other songs you mentioned, but can't put a name to them.

I understand that music evolves. That doesn't mean it's constantly improving though.

[QUOTE="xaos"] Yeah, it's totally not like people have different tastes or anythingxaos

I accept the fact that people have different tastes. But if you think poop tastes good or the Beatles sound bad, there's something probably wrong with your tastes.

Hopefully, someday you'll realize that musical tastes are subjective. If not, maybe you can make that work for you by getting a job at a record store or something.

I realized that taste is subjective years ago.

Do you realize that just because the enjoyment of something is subjective doesn't mean everything is of equal quality?

If not, please explain to me why the first picture and the second picture are of equal quality.

[QUOTE="PerfectCircles"]I don't really listen to the Beattles so Apple has disappointed me :x xaos

Well, now would be as a good a time as any to fix that.

I didn't get into the Beatles until I actually listened to an album from start to finish. If you can listen to Revolver, Abbey Road, or Sgt. Peppers from start to finish and stil not love the Beatles, there's something wrong with you.

I did some calculations and it turns out all that Beatles music I got for free years ago would only have cost me $137.91 if I had waited for iTunes. Thanks, Apple! I'LL NEVER FORGET THIS GLORIOUS DAY!!!

Please explain how a progressive metal song performed by four or five musicians can be more complex than this.

If it is Beatles music, they better be giving everyone a few free Beatles albums or something. How can anybody be so arrogant to say that giving you the privelige to pay for something that's been for sale at other stores for over four decades marks a day we'll never forget?

Is this it?http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703326204575617004052395816.html

I'd LOL, especially considering my iTunes is already full of Beatles music. I'll never forget the day Apple gave the the ability to pay for what I already got for free!
