Beatles, The Fab Four
So much has been written about the Beatles that it's difficult to summarize their career without restating clichés that have already been digested by tens of millions of rock fans. To start with the obvious, they were the greatest and most influential act of the rock era, and introduced more innovations into popular music than any other rock band of the 20th century. Moreover, they were among the few artists of any discipline that were simultaneously the best at what they did and the most popular at what they did. Relentlessly imaginative and experimental, the Beatles grabbed a hold of theMore international mass consciousness in 1964 and never let go for the next six years, always staying ahead of the pack in terms of creativity but never losing their ability to communicate their increasingly sophisticated ideas to a mass audience. Their supremacy as rock icons remains unchallenged to this day, decades after their breakup in 1970.

    So, after waiting for years, The Beatle have gone digital : first the remastered CD's and now they're on iTunes and flash drives and wild new DVD-5.1 Audio remixes. It's a long, long way from John saying "We're all very happy to be able to talk to you like this on this little bit of plastic". WhatMore do you think, Beatle People : is it gear, or grotty or ... whatever?

    The Beatles: The best rock band EVA (In fact i'm listening to them right now) hide show

    The Beatles: They are the best group of singers ever I love all of there songs including OB LA DI, OB LA DA, Hey Jude, Drive my Car, Back in the USSR, Sgt Peppers lonely hearts club band, When im 64, I get by from a little help from my friends but my absolute favourite is Let it be. There are all awesome Singers and musicians and I can't choose a favourite. They are legends and are by far the best band ever. Ringo is an amazing Drummer, Paul and John are great singers and George (The most underrated Beatle) is a great guitarist.

    The Beatles: 10.0

    Best rock band in music history! hide show

    I don't know where to start... other than "OH MY GAWD I LOVE THE BEATLES!" =P
    Seriously, this band came to the music industry in the 60's and music was never the same ever again, their influence and impact in culture is unbeatable. They had such an original and innovating music style it's very hard not lo love them. I've been listening to them ever since I was very young, and now I consider myself as one of the biggest Beatles fans, I can't go without listening to them at least daily, every single song they ever made is genius, I don't think we'll ever live to see musicians as great as John Lennon and Paul McCartney again, their songs are just priceless. I could go on babbling of how much I love them and how they are the best band in history and how I will always be a fan, but I think you've got the idea. BEATLES FOREVER!

    Decent band. hide show

    I have never been a fan of the group, but I have respect for their work and what they have accomplished in the music world. They are one of the biggest music artists of all time. I don't think I like any of their songs all too well, but I find them just okay. I don't have a favorite member, but I must say that they were very much a great group. I don't know why they became so popular, but I think they managed to hit the right chords with music fans. Overall, they were a decent group, but not my favorite. Thank you.

    Say Hello. hide show

    It the Beatles the beatles. i love them, i can relate to all of their songs. Their songs have so much meaning. My favorite would have to be John lennon. I think there is something about him that you are like wow he is amazing. Also the rest of the band Paul McCartney, George Harrison and my favorite drummer Ringo Starr. when you watch videos about them the younger and the older days, they just make you laugh, it just seem that they are always having a great time. They look around and in themselves for their songs. For me my favorite band ever.
