I don't know where I said the Fab Four were just a fad.

I like The Beatles as much as the next guy, probably more than most people here. It depends some can talk up The Beatles and it doesn't bother me even if it's that The Bealtes better than anything else in the Universe. I don't mind people praising The Beatles as long as they don't throw the bands & artists I like under the bus to prove their pov.


When I said The Beatles = Infatuation, it was really from something someone else said about The Beatles, - paraphrasing again - that their songs was about that walking on clouds kind of feeling that first love brings. They had songs like I Want To Hold Your Hand and I've Just Seen a Face etc. I went in and out of phases with The Beatles and The Who but I've always been a Rolling Stones fan.
