I argue with my viewers about whether or not the Beatles are overrated. Other topics include "Drake revolutionized rap music" and "Pure Comedy is one of the worst albums of the decade."

Enjoy the benefits of the "great perspective" social network.
The Beatles are arguably the best band of all time.
Early Beatles defines modern pop structure.
Late Beatles exemplifies the breaking of these structures, while still holding on to some of them.
Both are overrated in the older crowd (mainly because of their disconnect to what music has accomplished since), and underrated in the younger crowd (mainly because of their disconnect to older music, partly due to perpetual attention paid to a saturated market)... because culture.
Led Zeppelin are arguably the best band of all time. Most of their early discography (1-6) can be played in most places with most people enjoying it.
Radiohead are arguably the best band of all time. Cryptic introspections of reality, mixed with emotionally charged tonality and rhythm.
Regarding most of the other comments:
Capitalism craves formulas competing for the common denominator of an ever growing market. It's natural for the common denominator to be vapid (most of the time) to those looking beyond the surface.
The Beatles: The "overnight sensation" from such a long prolific and vastly influential night. Hard to beat without solid argumentation...
If you wanna know how to trend more hit me up! I got some friends in high places and this is entirely up to you. I look forward to corresponding with you. This community is small-knit and VERY different from YouTube so I'd be more than happy enough to help clarify (what I know) on how this blockchain operates. My account is 2 weeks old but I've trended 3 times, so I'll help with you using 4 tags instead of 5!
Their impact on society and culture can't be underestimated. Plus the bands musical talent stands pretty well on their own. The Beatles aren't overrated, they are the band of which all others are compared.
funny how i only know about you from steemit :) Welcome thanks for adding your voice!
The Beatles are not overrated but over exposed. They have created great music, stood the test of time and are highly influential. People have heard them many times over and as great as they are, you can only listen to any music for so long. I still listen to the White Album and Revolver as those two never get old for me.
Welcome to Steemit. Nice to see you here.
Beatles? Never heard of them. Bet they ain't as good as The Dead Milkmen.
