Considered the greatest pop/rock band ever and i could not agree more. With over one billion sales of records, cds or tapes they shall never be matched. Although when any one thinks of the beatles they think of John Lennon, I think of Paul McCartney he is the best of all four. He wrote the majority of there songs in the later era (1967-70).
Turn up 'i am the walrus', this song rocks!!!

Anyone who says the Beatles aren't the best band ever is lying. Their early music was mainly just superficial love songs, but they developped into an influential band with profound lyrics and just plain kickass music. They've been my favourite since I was 13.
The Beatles composed many amazing songs including Eleanor Rigby, Hey Jude, Come Together and Stawberry Fields Forever.

A 'revolutionary' band formed in 1960 that found great commercial and critical success. (Present day) it is considered a federal offense to claim that you do not consider them the best and last great thing to happen to the entirety of music. Regarding them as "meh", "okay" or "overrated" may result in, but is not limited to; severe berating/beating, vandalization of property, and/or having all you enjoy referred to as 'overrated'- regardless of its relevance to music; all punishments which may be delivered by hipsters, your parents/grandparents, the general public, etc...
John: The Beatles were okay, I just think they were a little overrated, y'know?

Hipster: (yelling) Hey everybody, this guy doesn't like The Beatles! I know, what the hell right!?

(Crowd starts to chant 'blasphemy!')

John's mother and father: Where did we go wrong!?

Alot of people who dont like them use the reason that they are overrated as a reason. You certainly don't have to like beatles music, but to say that they are overrated is a pile of crap. They influenced modern rock, and almost everyone copied them in some fasion.
Loser: Wow I hate the Beatles because they are overrated!

Sensible Person: How is the fact that they are overrated in any way at all related to their music?
