One of the most pleasing sounds of the 20th century... contrary to those anti-cliche, burn-the-bandwagon sorts' beliefs, the beatles merely had a "cute", teenage-girl PHASE... they've got some pretty strange trippy stuff as well.
Who knows how the Beatles named themselves? I don't.

The best band in existence. Those who hate them have horrible music taste or have never given them a chance. I, a young middle schooler, can tell the difference between famous because they're good- and famous because they're good-looking even though theit looks didn't hurt much ;-)

The Beatles. The world greatest band. Revolutionised music as a whole. Genuinely nice blokes.
The beatles typical conversation:
Lennon: "Paul, Did you know your future wife is going to be a money whore?"
PAul: "no, but thanks for telling me"

A band that for some reason has been regarded as "The greatest rock band of all time." This is a false belief that is especially brought out by moden-day faggot hipsters that claim The Beatles "still influence the music culture and many other fronts of art in contemporary time." These people are usually young adults with a pretentious, smug attitude about themselves. The Beatles were no more original than their peers, as they bought into the psychedelic movement like others. But their music had more of a mainstream grab to it, fitting them for the general audience. Thus enabling them to be embraced more than others of their time. Other bands of their time and after offered an equal amount of and even more talent, soul and influence than they. They are the most over-rated and over-exposed band of all time, and will be for centuries to come, as there is a paradox through contemporary times that presents them as the greatest to have been. Their albums have gone stale through the century and the songs within them have become a cliche for choir classes, marching bands, high school/college students and older who claim they are "individuals" or "artists," and every magazine or book, especially Rolling Stone, that have named them in at least three spots on every top ten list they created. They are no better than any other great bands before and after the 60's. See also, Shakespeare.
The Beatles are the head of all hipsters.
The Beatles were no more passionate, soul driven or influential than Nirvana.

An awesome, kick-ass band consisting of 4 British guys by the names of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.
What makes these guys so awesome is that they made some of, if not, the most influential and iconic music in history such as Hey Jude, I Want To Hold Your Hand, etc etc.
What disappoints me is...their popularity. They're so popular that people go around saying they're Beatles fans, when they only know 2-5 fucking songs by them. C'mon people, actually listen to them before making yourself look like retards and saying you're a fan of the Beatles to an ACTUAL Beatles fan, then getting punched in the face for saying that.
To identify a Beatles "fan", they'd only listen to the Beatles most popular music rather than their lesser known songs, which to me is better than their more popular songs. An actual Beatles fan would know 30-50 songs by the Beatles and would know almost a shitload of songs by them, even their lesser known songs. Also, the "fan" would have Beatles merchandise, which to me, is a way of saying that you're a poser Beatles fan, because you WANT and HAVE to let people know you're a Beatles "fan". However, with the actual Beatles fan, all people need to know that the actual fan likes the Beatles is the 30-50 songs they have on their iPod.
So basically what I'm saying is, I hate poser Beatles fans. And to those who only have 2-5 Beatles songs on your iPod, you're not a Beatles fan, you just know their music.
Beatles "fan": Do you like the Beatles?
ACTUAL Beatles fan: Oh my God, of course! What songs do you like by them?
Beatles "Fan": *shows iPod containing only 2-5 songs by them*
Actual Beatles fan: No. *walks away*
