I reckon you should really look at it in context. Having said that I didn't exactly appreciate George Harrisons comments earlier in the year saying that drum machines are like the plague. Back in their day, (i'm talking about the latter stuff - Revolver and on) was pretty good for mainstream stuff. Like, Tomorrow Never Knows .. I reckon is still a fucken cool tune. There's a lot of cheesy crap an all that .. but I try to see through that .. |

agreed lasit,once lennon took hold (mcCartney wrote most of the early klovey dovey pop songs), their political message was extremely well intertwined with the songs...makin hadden messages and all...yes i love the beatles...remember get back? i loved that song,quite funky |

Paul McCartney is an appauling cunt. Lennon had more talent in one of his pubic hairs than McCartney had altogether. As the Super Furry Animals rightly pointed out, McCartney is only good at chewing vegetables. |

The Beatles are good. The Rolling Stones are better. That's all the criticism I can muster for one day. |

ahh, the old lennon vs. that other idiot argeument.... yes yes, lennon was a fine man, and i am sad to have been born the year of his murder.... but besides all that, if i had not been raised on such greats as the beatles, talking heads, david bowie, brian eno, B-52s, the smiths, peter gabrial, and the like, i do not think i would like the music i like today! i have my wonderful, artsie farstie, wearing-black-all-the-time-for-the-sake-of-art, kinda yuppy parents to thank (who now live in Russia, bless their wittle hearts).... and i have to add, my rents (short for parents...) love such greats as radiohead, mouse on mars, and chibo matto because of me.... think how crazy it would be if your 45 year old mother was singing "We are the dollars and cents and the pounds and pents and the mock and the yen...." while driving her SUV with your two little bros singing along in the back? i tell you, it would be crazy. but i think the only reason they are into my music, is becasue they liked bands like the beatles when they were younger and child free, and then when they HAD kids, they did not switch to jimmi buffet, no no my friends, they kept listening to bowie, and later jane's addiction even to this day.... i like the beatles, they don't suck. my fingers hurt now......... |

My mum has shit taste in music but my dad likes SFA, Beta Band, Eels, Radiohead (not the new stuff) and Badly Drawn Boy because of me. He's not very open-minded, though... if I were to make him listen to IDM he'd just hate it. |

I bought Beatles - One album... I liked every song on it. Anyone who likes music for anything other then the music itself is an ass. |

ross, they are ok.. they are still parents, you know.... good damn thing i live on my own, or i'd have to kill them.... geo, i am not very familiar with the simpsons, but my never ending vat of knowlege (my room mate and dear friend) tells me that she was a beat nick, who did not believe in discipline.. well, you see they were not beat nicks, and they believe strongly in dicipline.. and they are even... dare i say(!?).. BORN AGIAN CHRISTIANS!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHH! but they still know how to have a good time, and like gay people. |

the beatles are quite decent and i much more enjoyed Lennon's songs than McCartney's. By the way i am not impressed at all by Ringo's solo stuff. But just look at the Sgt. Pepper's album -- they used a bit of sampling and audio trickery on it. audio experimentation. like the samples in "Yellow Submarine" of the water and the crowded bar and the sub etc.. and the weird kilotone noises at the end of the last song and the weird ass voices clips looping ad infinitum. And on the White Album -- REVOLUTION 9 is a total fucking electronic chaos trip track -- nothing but pure sampling madness for about 7 minutes. The Beatles were quite good after they stopped doing the "we all dress alike and look alike" bullshit. George Harrison is not that great either. Didn't he get sued for stealing someone's song? |

i really like that song rocky racoon, im pretty sure its off the white album.. and im not too keen on most beatles work, but the one where the lyrics go something along the lines of "i read the news today, oh boy.." hmm |

The Beatles are the single greatest achievement of all of humanity, not just music. Actually, I read a review of Tomorrow Never Knows, and the guy reviewing mentioned how it was the roots of modern techno and trance, like Aphex Twin. I wouldn't be a RDJ fan now if I didn't like the Beatles and didn't read that review. If Lennon was alive and 24 right now with this technology, they'd be so good, it would be TERRIFYING. |

Anyone seen the video Magical Mystery Tour ... it's fucken insane - has moments of potential (like the monty python like spagetti scene with John). |

i think the greatest thing about the Beatles is not necessarily their songs and music, but more the way they revolutionized music during that time. i mean, even if you dont like their music (which i completely do), youve got to appreciate that. |

Lennon was a cunt. Any Beatles fan knows this. But he was also a musical pioneer. |

And I absolutely loathe Yoko Ono. Not for any part she may have played in breaking up the Beatles, but for the way she has, since his death, manipulated anything Lennon ever did to her own ends |
