the velvet underground > the beatles.

Not really. If Kurt Cobain listened to the Foo Fighters he would commit suicide time and time again.

Probably because Everlong is a better song than he ever wrote.

Same here.

agreed

Nirvana might be overrated but are still good like the beatles are.

uhmmm... no?

Yes crypto, nirvana is the best you just don't see the beauty of them.

uhmmmm, no

The Beatles aren't over-rated.

Nirvana, maybe. But they're still great to listen to.

As much as I love the Beatles, I'm not really crazy about them.
Nirvana was great. I can see how they're a bit over-rated, but I still love them now for sentimental reasons.

Beatles really bore me to death.

I used to like Nirvana. Then, I turned 13 and decided they were a bore.

The Beatles are nothing special for me. I like The White Album, though. Sergeant Peppers sucks, except Within You Without You.
Why are you twats going after Nirvana. They were one of the best bands of the '90s, maybe ever.

I'm not really a Beatles fan. I like maybe 5 songs. 10 tops.

Nirvana was simplistic shit. Bores the hell out of me now. I'm sorry, but there is nothing special about a junkie playing 3 chord shit. Elliott Smith and Ian Curtis were far more tragic for people who should've been on suicide watch.

I'm not really a Beatles fan... I like I am the walrus...
Beatles just aren't my thing.

As for the Nirvana thing, they do suck.
But I like them. Sometimes it's fun to listen to simplistic shit.

Kurt sucked as a guitarist.

It's not fun to listen to any kind of 'shit'.

Simplistic music is good. i.e. Cat Power.

oasis is.

the Beatles deserve any and all praise they get. calling them the greatest band ever is not a stretch. it is nearly impossible to OVERRATE the Beatles.

they made rock n roll, a musical idiom mainly for kids, into ART and showed the world and all other musicians what could truly be done with this "rock n roll" format.

take any kid who is interested in writing music and songs, and play them the beatles catalogue over and over again. it is an education in and of itself.

the same cannot be said for anyone else.

the beatles rule all

sgt peppers
abbey road
the white album
on and on and on and on and on.
