    I have about 6 songs that I really like by the Beatles. Anything else I’ll end up skipping, no matter how hard I try.

    Oh look this guy doesn’t like a band that almost universally makes the top of respected “best bands” lists.

    Most overrated band ever.

    “I’m the egg man! I’m the walrus! Coo coo cachoo!” Wow so deep.

    Unpopular opinion, but I can’t stand listening to the Beatles. I admit, they have written some objectively good songs, I just don’t enjoy them. They just don’t sound good to me.

    However, I’m not a hater, and if you like them, I’m happy for you!

      I’m always in two minds. Like you, yes, I can say they’re objectively good, but I tend to find myself enjoying the slightly more experimental stuff rather than the hits that immediately come to everyone’s mind when you mention the band.

      That said, one of my favourite songs is While My Guitar Gently Weeps 👌

      The Beatles are undoubtedly a huge part of music history and a huge foundational piece of rock and roll. That being said, listen to what you like and like what you like.

      I have trouble watching a lot of classic movies and find them boring. I’d like to think that’s fine!

    I can’t stand them either. I get them. I respect them. I just don’t like them. Stones are the better UK band from the 60s.

      I like the stones less than the beatles but love tull. I mean there was a lot of change and progression in that period from elvis onward.
