Helter skelter was breddy good

Helter Skelter is their best song

I think you judge a group's true status by their influence on other musicians. In that instance the Beatles stature speaks for itself. It doesn;t even mean they necessarily have mass appeal eg the Velvet Underground. Although the Fab-$ managed to excel at both metrics. Another one was Jimi Hendrix, re-defined the limits of rock guitar playing.

Overrated by normies. The Velvet Underground was the best band at that time. The Beach Boys were also better.

The first Paul was better than his replacement.

everly brothers rip offs

>who is Procol Harum

I agree that Velvet Underground was far superior at the time.

KYS boomer

Yeah, it's all crap that you've been force fed until you started to like it.

John Lennon sang about imagining there's no money while almost breaking up the band over money. They were massive shit heels and I'm glad most of them are dead, particularly John Lennon.

I urge all anons not aware of this band to listen to them. A salty dog is my fave album of theirs but this album and the one before are bretty good. They are still a band, new stuff is hit or miss for me though.

George is underrated.
The rest are human garbage.

Beatles suck ass

I dunno, their style was kinda not really original. The kind of songs they were writing in the 60s pretty much sounded like Dave Clark Five's "Glad All Over".

So they were like a synthesis of 50s' rock'n'roll melodic songs and some beat music like The Searchers.

What made them successful is that instead of just having a few hits like the other bands, they had one hit after another. They discovered a recipe for "pop" rock'n'roll songs which played very well to normies' ears, with simple harmonics and notes and simple song structures. They added some edge to that (like some beat syncopations) and their personality cults, and that was pretty much it.

So I'd say they were overrated, but not that they lacked any value whatsoever. The recipe just worked very well, because if you took every one of them separately, they were each pretty mediocre instrument players with mediocre voices.

Just listen to their solo albums to see just how mediocre their performances were. What lifted them was the melodic and easy-to-sing and remember songs. They had this hopscotch rhythm and this happy, positive, naive emotion to them.

Lennon sang about no money on an expensive piano, while living in an expensive mansion.

In fact, that's one of the reasons he got killed. The guy who killed him became angry at how fake Lennon's shit had became.

majorly over produced and overrated. what happens when your fanbase is 12 year old girls.

I agree he was a faggot but the guy that killed him was a faggot also.

Where have we seen the white lab coat and cannibalism motif before?

Overrated? Yes
Bad? Not particularly

They wrote good pop songs. Nothing more, nothing less.

I never understood the hype about the Soitles, their music is boring as fuck. Beach Boys are the undisputed GOATs

The guy who killed Lennon was like this super-naive autist with the mentality of a 12-year old kid (the world is bad, Lennon was my friend until he got rich and now he is evil too, etc).

I'm still glad he did it, fuck John Lennon.

I never liked them. But, I agree with this. It's one of the few songs by them I think is decent. It's about drugs tho.
>When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
When I come down I get high again.
Yeah, but the White album was after the real Paul died.

This.
And what the fuck is that album cover? Normies are fucking imbeciles being led to hell by their (((overlords)))

Lennon was the perfect incarnation of the fake, champaign leftist. Guy was an asshole who pretended to care about "love, world peace, non-violence" and other hippie shit like that, while beating the shit out of his wife and ignoring his son.

It's the worst kind of leftist hippie who virtue-signals all around, then goes to rape some groupie cunt, just because it's fun.

Name one song where lennon wrote about imagining there's no money

Someone once said, follow anyone around all day with a camera and a mic, and of course they’ll be a hit (does the name Kim Kardashian ring a bell?). And of course, it doesn’t hurt to pay dozens of young ladies to scream at the top of their lungs and throw panties. kek

As musicians, judged individually by techinal ability none were especially great, nobody says for example Ringo is the best drummer in the world, nobody claims Beaorge is the greatest guitarist or Paul the best vocalist etc, and nobody claims that Lennon and Mccartney are the greatest song writes in the history of music.

However as a package, when you weigh all the different elements up together, the combination of their personalities (which cannot really be quantified), the unique sound they made, the ridiculous knack of coming up with a ctachy tune, of writing lyrics that resonated with the youth of their time, the chemistry between them and the energy they generated during a performance, other things that can't really be quantified but there are plenty of accounts from people who saw them during their Hamburg days who said they'd seen and heard nothing like it.

They are not overrated at all, they conquered the world, they used to bring stadia full of teenage girls to orgasm just by playing a few simple chords, most of what has followed them in popualr music owes them something.

They were great.

Definitely. Both of my parents are from the 50's and they never really bothered with these British dumb fucks that are The Beatles. There was so much better music back then aside from Beatles. Pink Floyd, Stones, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Fleetwood Mac, Crosby, Stills, Nash. I don't get the fucking appeal of this hipster trash.

I hate their revision of history (blackbird) but damn the fab 4 were not overrated. their music is appreciated even more with the knowledge that a lot of it was pioneering with no precedent. idk what it was but these four and their producer made some of the best rock of all time.

>"Imagine" you dumb faggot.
Show me the lyric where john lennon mentions money in the song Imagine, you dumb faggot

i'll wait

having said that, this is greatest rock and roll song from the 60's
