But only very specific parts. In fact, if aliens invade and you’re in Paris or London, just stay away from the general vicinity of the Eiffel Tower or Big Ben and you’ll be fine.
That was the stereotype in the west too, it only reversed when having a tan meant you were wealthy enough to have been on a summer holiday somewhere sunny!
Am I the only on here that actually likes the Beatles? They’re catchy and familiar, not to mention have some weird and whacky unusual stuff like Revolution 9. Also found the conspiracy theory fun to dive into.
Obviously music is extremely subjective but you can’t tell me that their music was not objectively a massive deal, at least historically.
I also love that their music was essentially mostly all written, composed, produced, and edited by the 4 of them. Nowadays I’m told about how _____ is such a great musician, then I look at the album credits and there’s like 20 song writers, 50 producers, 100+ sound mixers, crew, editors, etc. So like are those people that good if they need 200+ people behind them making it listenable?
I guess what I’m saying is that new music is over produced, and I appreciate the simplicity of older music like the Beatles
I don’t mind them. I think if you listen to them through the lens of being one of the first bands of their kind, their appeal makes far more sense.
As a story, the way they honed their craft is very interesting. While I doubt it’s all “hard work”, they’re a good example of how practice makes perfect.
Does them being popular somehow make them worse? I don’t understand this take… What’s wrong with liking what you like, without regard to what others like, either way?
I like them, they were a pretty important foundation for my taste in music. I didn’t really get the hatred of them that seems popular of late, I can’t help but feel like at least some of that is just people following the trend, but it doesn’t change my enjoyment of it.
Their influence was so far reaching. Even if you aren’t a Beatles fan, odds are that someone you listen to is one and hugely influenced by them. Kind of like that saying I’ve heard about Neil peart. “If your favorite drummer is someone other than peart, their favorite drummer is probably peart”
I think this is a technique for not dying of smoke inhalation during a fire. Sure hope someone’s coming to save your ass cuz you’re still in a burning building.
It is indeed! Just gonna take out my toilet straw from the back of the cupboard and run to the shitter. Rest of the family will have to find their own shit sipper.
