Basically, they changed the landscape of popular music in just 8, more like 5-6, years. Ask me to name the individual elements of that change and we'll be here all day. It wasn't just the music: it was the attitude, the product and the influence. It's why the Beatles go beyond music and enter into pop culture and even world history. The Beach Boys could sing circles around the Beatles. Last edited by Electrophonic Tonic; 10-08-2011 at 09:18 PM. |

The Beatles are overrated, indeed. However, I do think they deserve a point for no matter how popular, and rich they got they seemed to take their music, and the writing of it, seriously. Even when they wrote something horrendous(Yellow Submarine), they seemed like they loved making, and performing it.
Unlike most popular acts, they didn't just pick a sound, and start phoning it in. They weren't really afraid of taking risks.
