I think younger folk reject the Beatles because their dogshit music gets thrust into your face at every opportunity by any patronising older generation. There’s **** all interesting about their music for me, I wouldn’t argue that they shaped a lot of what followed but who cares? Music isn’t first past the post.
How old are you bruv? I’m 44 so they’d split up before I was born but I love their work. I think most of what they did as solo artists was ****e.
Tel - I'm certainly not young, far from it and I could never stand them, same repetitive shhite, over and over again, I truly hated their music. So much so I refused to ever play a piece that belonged to them - that is quite a challenge in music, because the Beatles are seen as a building block of your education. That's how inbred they are into the music industry. I litterally refused to have anything to do with their music. Manufactored shhite sold and cloned for the masses.
How can you call some of their later stuff ie Sgt Pepper manufactured ****e? How was it manufactured to appeal to the masses?
I’m 35. People in my life such as my first step dad never shut the **** up about the Beatles. It was always on in his car, in his van, in the house, ****ing boring ****er even told me the Beatles did the voices for the Vultures in The Jungle Book.
Once they got past Help! they were a million miles from being repetitive either. Can't argue the early 60's pop/rock music was samey but after that, no way. Perhaps @brb should listen to it, instead of refusing to do so yet talk about it like he knows it inside out?
It's alright mate, we are getting lectures now, from musical genius' on the forum, who think we must like the Beatles.
Do we have to give the same Kudos to Madonna for what she did for Women/Pop music it can we all just agree that her music is ****?
The vultures were characterised as The Beatles. They didn’t actually do the voices. The elephants were based on the fat bird, Cass Elliot, from The Mamas and the Papas.
Might help if you didn't make generalisations that are patently incorrect. It's like you're reading from a script.
