"How timeless the talent. Younger groups are playing these fabulous Beatles songs in this TV award ceremony, displaying their enduring genius. How sad only two of them survive... If it done right I love other musicians singing classic songs" Paul and Ringo were visibly enjoying the tributes of the younger, highly talented performers, and I hope the whole show revealed their genius to an appreciative new audience as well as to those of us that grew up with them. | |||

"I can remember my parents having an argument with one of my peers (who was big into the Beatles during their late '90s/early 00s 'revival' phase) that basically, the Beatles were music your granny liked and if you were cool you liked the Stones or the Yardbirds. " Well yes that's true, but let's face it, if you were an original fan of The Stones or Yardbirds, you might well be a granny now in any case... | |||

I know both of my parents are now grandparents in the literal sense. I believe my mother once likened the Beatles to the "Take That" of the 60s. | |||

" Try listening to Helter Skelter, or I want you, or why don't we do it in the road, and then come back and tell me they were like Take That. They were eclectic, they did just about every genre you could mention. Paul McCartney, while undoubtedly a bit of an arse,, was by far the most talented musician in the band. He was a fabulous and influential bass player, and a very good pianp player as well...and he can play drums and guitar pretty well too. From 1966 on, while Lennon was out of it on drugs, he was the most prolific songwriter, and a lot of songs people give credit to Lennon for were actually written by McCartney. " I've listened to them, and I don't like them. It was my mother who made the Take That comparison. I'm not old enough to remember the Beatles when they were current (although I am old enough to remember Take That), My parents, however have seen both. Maybe the reason that the output was poorer from 1966 on is preciseley because Lennon couldn't write and it was "Mull of Kintyre" Mc Cartney that was writing for them. | |||

"Now I'm not trying to covert anyone here, we all like what we like and that's fair enough, but the amount of tosh I'm reading on this thread,shows that most of you posting have absolutely no Idea what you are talking about.

You may not like the guy, but you're a fool if you mock his musical talent, and PLEASE don't mention the fucking olympics! He plays hundreds of gigs every year and fuck ups are virtually non existant. Now if you don't like, or don't get The Beatles fair enough, but please refrain from spouting the same old stereotypical bullshit. Thank you " Just because you love them, doesn't mean that we all have to. | |||

" I don't care whether you like them or not, the point I was making was about your comparison with Take That. Show me a TT number like Helter Skelter and I'll conceed your point, but you won't because yo can't. So you think their output went downhill after 1966? Revolver? Sgt Pepper? the White Album? Abbey Road? all after 66. Anyway, I've had my say, so I'll leave you to it and do something worthwhile | |||
