I agree with what LPD said, but one thing that did annoy me is when some guy who was acting as if he was the expert on all music said to me “The Beatles sucked in the 60s, but the albums they did in the 70s were okay”… and no, he wasn’t talking about their solo careers paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif  

Confused with Pink Floyd/The Who?

The who?

I dunno. mccartney-shrug_01_gif

Edit: It’d still be a stupid opinion, but at least factually more feasible.

I like to play a game with people called “Who’s George Harrison ?” 

  

Now I’m curious, what do people say (besides I Don’t Know?)

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8That’s getting to be quite the quote chain…

Honestly Walry I’m jealous that 25% of the people you know appreciate George’s amazingness.

Maybe, though I’m inclined to think he was just trying to make himself sound impressive by having a contrarian opinion paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

IMO Hey Jude , Yesterday , Let It Be and Yellow Submarine are the most popular. Beyond these–Beatles, what?

And there’s the songwriter issue, “Lennon looks great playing piano in that Hey Jude video”, sort of stuff.paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif

I don’t mind people not knowing a great deal of Beatles songs, the issue arises for me when they start coming out with opinions on the band as a whole like “they’re very overrated” without even having bothered to give them a proper go.

Wouldn’t say any of them have annoyed me, but people asking “Ringo doesn’t do music anymore, right?” . And when I had to correct twice that it was the former bassist (Stuart) of the group, not the former drummer (Pete), who died before Ringo joined the band.
