The 'Keep spending most our lives living in a gangster's paradise' bit sounds a bit like the tune of 'all the lonely people, where do they all come from?' ??

29 years separation. It makes me feel so old that in 1995. Revolver was released 29 years ago, and now here we are, and Gangstas Paradise was released 29 years ago.

Therefore any noms before I login will be accepted.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Watching Hard Quiz for the fist time.

Finish the following lyrics

"There were no D-Day heroes in"

Got it in a tenth of a second

 

[FreoGirl]

I hate The Beatles

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

I hate The Beatles

Is this a reaction to their extreme popularity?

Learned recently they only recorded together for 7 years. Ridiculous output over that time.

I'm a bit young, my parents were not into them and I didn't really get a whole lot of exposure to them growing up. I think their omnipresence turned me away from them a bit also.

But as someone reaching the middle stages of my life, I can certainly appreciate their talent, which to be fair revolutionised music. Some absolutely awe inspiring songwriting.

 

[Ulahoopski]

I hate The Beatles music.

FTFY.

Just never really liked them, but disliked Pink Floyd even more lol

I did go to visit Abbey Road though, and didn't mind some of John Lennon's stuff

 

[myblueroan]

It is weird to have 2 Beatles haters in our tiny pool of SC'ers.

I'm a bit ...they have influenced so much of pop music ...so many songwriters that I think it's fair to say it's a bit like Meryl Streep dressing down ''Andy' in The Devil Wears Prada. You probably don't realise the extent to which you've been influenced by them or artists you love have been.

[FreoGirl]

[Fossie 32]

I love The Beatles
Music

 

[myblueroan]

we can't ALL be the same

Of course!
But it's melody and harmony..It is hard to understand. (for me!) And they sing about love. It's like...
What's not to like!

plus, I LOVE Pink Floyd
So currently
Deeply perplexed whilst respecting our differences.

That's where I'm at. They weren't a thing for me growing up. It was chili peppers, foo fighters etc.
Obviously knew a few Beatles songs, but the depth of their work is just astonishing.
