Thoughts on the Beatles?

[hippy dave]

I respect the influence they have had on some of the music I do enjoy, but I'm not into their stuff.

to coin a phrase from Yoda, "you will be, you will be." got it!?

Don't love everything they've done but they've a handful of absolute classics for sure. My favourites probably being Here Comes the Sun and Strawberry Fields.

as much as I like floyd, I'd do anything to see Lennon. he is my favorite musician of all time.

True, lately i'm do also to listen pink floyd.
And also about the back story's from there album/songs

This is a good way to look at art. You like what you like.

Pffffff, I've been trying to kill those things since Ancient times
And I like to play these songs while doing so:

#1 Day Tripper
Hard Days Night
Please Please Me
Eight Days A Week
Twist And Shout
I Feel Fine
All My Lovin
Magical Mystery Tour
Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
I Am The Walrus

And then finish off with Yesterday

twist and shout reminds me of ferris bueller's day off, when he's lip syncing the words to the song.

I would not take away their place in pop culture or anything but not going to catch me with any in my collection.

Interesting video examining some of their stuff that I return to from time to time

John Lennon is probably my hero more than any other musician. here's one of my favorites of his from the beatles:

 

[AncientBoi]

My utmost favorite from him is:

 

[CoolMe]

My utmost favorite from him is:

Let me guess, "Crippled Inside"?

 

[godreborn]

My utmost favorite from him is:

yeah, that's my favorite while solo. there are some things that call it a beatles song just because it's him.

 

[The Catboy]

The Beat-Alls were better

I think I agree with the sentiment about their influence being somewhat more significant than their discography as a whole, and it is definitely pretty crazy to think about their influence on your influences and perhaps how long that list lasts. Really big impact lol

Still, I do have some favourites from the albums I've heard, and while it could just as easily have been another artist, I learned some important things about songwriting from them, even though whatever I make sounds nothing like the Beatles

The Beat-Alls were better

The Rutles were even better lol

@godreborn I do like the really early Floyd stuff. This is a stand out tune from early Floyd
