The Music Made Me Do It : The Beatles

Probably the greatest band to have ever been. Nobody lives up their greatness.

You can argue that they weren't the best band ever to be, but you cannot deny that without them, none of the rock bands around today would be themselves. They are hands-down the most influencing band ever.

They were very influential to pretty much all of modern rock in some way or another. I am not really a big fan of their early lovey-dovey stuff but I enjoy the white album and the songs that are darker and more emotionally-laden. I agree with some people here that they're not the "greatest" band of all time, but they deserve a lot of respect and credit in the least.

People who did their research are correct the beatles influenced even the greatest of artists to this day but on a side note their music is boring and annoying.

I don't know how anyone can't enjoy at least one Beatles song.

I'm definitely NOT ignorant when it comes to music. Neither am I closed minded like a lot of people seem to be... I grew up with The Beatles and I will always love them... I even have a large tattoo piece in honor of them... Just because they aren't hardcore music or emo music doesn't mean they aren't talented.. They don't have to scream or write songs about wanting to kill themselves to be a great band, unlike more than HALF the bands this day and age. But besides having good music, they are good people. I had the honor of meeting Paul and he was one of the nicest people I have ever met. So really, if you don't like them, why the hell are you wasting your time writting bad about them on a lyric website?? That does not make sense, obviously you think about them enough to come write about them.

WOW I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUSICALLY RETARDED SOME PEOPLE ARE. THE BEATLES ARE DEFINITELY NOT BORING. AND THEY ARE THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME. AND I HAVE TO AGREE WITH WITH JESKAFACE. YEAH THEY AREN'T A HARDCORE ROCK BAND BUT WITHOUT THEM MUSIC WOULDN'T BE WHERE IT IS TODAY. JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO YOUNG TO APPRECIATE THE POWER AND AWESOMENESS OF THEIR MUSIC AND LYRICS DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO SPOUT OFF STUPID COMMENTS. SO WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK AND LISTEN TO YOUR CRAPPY MUSIC AND LEAVE TRUE MUSIC LOVERS ALONE.

hey, dont go player hatin y'all....

Beatles would not get in my top 50 favourite bands... but i still think they are the greatest and most dignified band to date. these guys earn my respect fully. one of the few artists i dont have the balls to insult.... bravo.

Posted: 07/19/2008, 08:34 AM

super n0thing

it wasn't until very recently that i could appreciate their music. i really do think that it's a more mature style though. you need to really listen to them to understand their songs, which is why most people probably get bored by them, because it's not GRRRRRRRR I'M SO SAD GRRRRR in your face. it's good. just good. leave it at that.

Wow, I'm shocked that anyone could talk any shit about the Beatles. They are definitely one of the greatest and most influential bands of all time. How could anyone consider them boring when no two albums are anything alike? They expanded across a huge range of genres and experimented in a ton of different ways while still remaining popular and true to themselves. They took the world by storm not only with their music (started the British invasion), but also influenced fashion and hair trends (just look around at all the kids in suits and Beatle hair cuts). Plus, let's not forget how intelligent and funny they were in movies and interviews. Which, is more then I can say for most of the musicians we have today. A band that is boring or shitty would not be covered non-stop (commercials, movies, etc.) 40 years after they've broken up. The Beatles will forever be one of my favorite bands. R.I.P John and George. You will always be missed

The only reason I love the Beatles is because all they would listen to at work was them and they grew on me greatly. I never listened to them because I thought they were overrated and I was wrong. dead wrong. This is an amazing group that put out hit after hit and changed styles up with every album. Truly a talented band and every member was amazing. Definately one of my favorite bands.

Just one of those bands that everyone thinks we are all obligated to like because of their history. I won't deny what they did for music, good or bad, but I will say I grow very sleepy and bored when I listen to them.

My 3 favourite bands are The Beatles, Zep and Floyd. Funny that 2 of them were influence by the 3rd. And if you don't know which is which then what the hell are you doing here, there and everywhere?

The greatest band that ever was and ever will be. Without this band, you would all be listening to crooners and Elvis-ripoffs. Their impact on music is that deep. Icons such as these will never be seen again.

i think we are missing the point the beatles are amazing yes, and some of there songs can be repetitve yes, but the beatles are a HUGE part of musical evolution starting with the blues long ago when someone would record oh say muddy waters for example on an acoustic guitar, then a recording would get across the pond to uk where they added electric guitars and it went back and forth until you got bands like beatles who inspired huge amounts of people including black sabbath who basically created a genre though the two bands music is not similar at all in most cases. so simplistic songs yes, great achievements very. like them or not if i had to choose they are not my favorite band by any means, but they are one of the most influential and will be for generations to come by simpling writing repetitive boring songs but at the time I'm sure they were ground breaking, i'm done ranting

Posted: 03/30/2009, 08:48 PM

blackbird.

They COULD be simplistic at times, but not always. It is ignorant to think they were simplistic all the time. Listen to something like "A Day In The Life" and then revise your opinion.

"simpling writing repetitive boring songs but at the time I'm sure they were ground breaking"

I'm not even going to correct the grammar issues in this statement, but what are you talking about? There music is all over the place. I mean, "Revolver", "Magical Mystery Tour", "Abbey Road" or "The White Album". No two albums are the same.

They may have been simplistic at times, but that's because they could rely on their vocal and instrumental abilities and didn't need a bunch of extra crap like the artists we have today.

BEST BAND EVER!!! anyone excited for the Rock Band Game coming up??

I feel lame saying this, but I totally am! I mean, I like Metallica and Aerosmith, but I can't imagine entire games devoted to them. The Beatles on the other hand, that's brilliant and the instruments are modeled after theirs. Plus, I love that Paul, RIngo, Dhani and the widows were so involved. I can't imagine it won't be good.
