THE BEATLES I hate the way everyone (particularily old people) use them to suggest they're the greatest band ever. It's a simple case of being there at the right place, at the right time. They were unique at that time. However now, in my opinion, they're ****. God bless em they deserve everything they got it's not their fault they were consumerists delight but, i really do ****ing hate them.

Who's your worst band (inserts name of next person later)?
bit belated, the beatles have influenced so many of todays artists. they were diverse (just listen to revolver then magical mystery tour). "now their ****?" how can a band suddenly become **** after 40+ years as legends? their back catalogue speaks for itself. i respect your opinion on them but consumerists delight? true they were idolised by millions in their day (and still are) but thats only due to their brilliance. oh btw, its not just old people, a lot of younger people and indeed our generation appreciate them as one of the greatest. if in 40 years green day are hailed as an all time great i presume you'll say the same thing about being there at the right time and right place? yeah, im bored. touche.
