^^ wow, I don't think there's a single comment on this board that I disagree more with. ok this reply is gonna be long so bear with me.
when the beatles came out, they revolutionized music. before their time, we had what, sinatra as the big music icon of the period. so think of what they had to work with in terms of inflences and inspiration. nothing in the time period in which they broke out on to the scene was even close to what they were doing. now on to the "wussy lyrics" comment, which shows nothing more than the fact that you simply don't understand te majority of their lyrics. they dealt with major issues in their lyrics, hypocricy within the british monarchy and the church and its role in the state for example, in elenoar rigby. surprised? if you'd listened to the lyrics and understood the times and the circumstances in which they were written, you wouldn't be. I don't have time to explain and analyize all of their lyrics for you, but I'd suggest having another listen, and actually try to break beneath the surface of what the meaning seems to be. back to the "too mellow" comment, you can't compare their music to the types of music we have now, it's a completely different time period, it just doesn't work. they completely broke the mold when they came out, and anyone who says that they weren't talented musicians really don't know what they're talking about. look at the music ringo plays, anyone who plays drums will tell you it's difficult, plus singing at the same time. same with george harrison. ok, i think I'm done for now, I could go on if you need further convincing, believe me, I have plenty more arguments where those came from.

again people, could we try to explain WHY the bands are supposedly crap so the thread isn't completely useless?

there are quite a good number of bad ones, but uhm, worst?
nickelback for ear´s sake! every song they write is just crap, no good lyrical content, old, wasted melodies.. ah, it couldn´t be worse. *honourable mentions: hoobastank ("the reason" is so freaking annoying that it hurts. they´ve gone too commercial and, even tho that is not always a synonym for less quality, in most cases it is. and this is one of those cases. period.) busted (haha. no comments) good charlotte (do i have to explain it? i don´t think i could find the proper words.) staind (once again, it´s all about the way they write. it´s so old news that it´´s irritating) puddle of mudd (i admit that i like "she f_cking hates me", for the fun of it, but other than that... there´s absolutely nothing there worth to listen to)
