Dumbest comment. Think about what you just said, please.
You feel sorry for people who simply were unaware that their favourite bands might have liked The Beatles?
Anyway; A Day in the Life.

AC, I've been trying to understand what it is about the Beatles that you dislike. I know you like some things about them. But, they are the most influential band ever. And if not the best band ever, they are in the team photo. Your not thinking so doesn't make it true.
Is it a you against the world mentality of yours? If so, I can appreciate it. Is it because you like being argumentative? You like a good debate? If so, I can still somewhat understand. But, the truth is they ARE the most influential band ever; and one of the best bands ever. I say they're the best ever, so my opinion is biased. However, there is no disputing they are the most inluential band ever. It is easier to say this than it is to call them the best band ever. It is as true as Paris is the capital of France. 2 + 2 = 4. Michael Jordan is the best player in NBA history. WWII happened, etc. etc.

A) I don't dislike The Beatles. I just don't attempt to give them fellacio as your kind do.
B) Your thinking they are doesn't make it true either, what part of that are you not getting? It's not a fact that they are the most influential band ever, and I've debated more than well against people who come up with better Pro-Beatles arguments than you.

It's because I don't think they are either the best band ever or the most influential, it's that simple. What is it about fans of The Beatles that stops you from being capable of accepting that these things you believe are not facts? Does it personally hurt you when someone doesn't roll over for them or something?
They are not, factually, anything you say they are. You believe they are the most influential band ever, you believe they are the best ever. Neither of these are fact, you cannot factually prove either of them, and nobody has ever been able to, because it's opinion. I have disputed it successfully against many people, and so have many people before me, around the world.
Why you are acting like this has somehow crushed your belief system in life, is beyond me and, if I'm honest, worrying.
You cannot prove that they are the most influential band ever to the point of undeniability, because it's not a fact. Get over it, typical Beatles fan. To claim that them being the most influential band ever is as true as 2 + 2 being 4, makes you a complete idiot. 50 million opinions are no closer to fact that one opinion. Millions agreeing with you doesn't make it any more true.

OK, good point, let me re-phrase: I feel sorry for people who put down, or talk crap about, the Beatles while liking bands that were influenced by them. It's a matter of knowing roots I believe. Just give props to those who came before and made it possible for music to evolve how it has.

Ahhh, I see. Thanks for the 411. I appreciate it. By the way, I share your opinion on the Beatles.

Well, yes. Saying an opinion is as true as a mathematical fact is idiocy. Sorry if this upsets you.

I agree with you, actually. Give props to by all means, like I respect what Maiden did for metal, but I don't have to like them. People can acknowledge The Beatles, but they don't have to like them just because they like bands influenced by them.
For the record, Bakerboy is a bitter fan of The Beatles who takes it as a personal insult if you don't like them or dare to speak against them being the unquestionable best ever. What he just accused me of, is exactly what he does. We've debated many times and he always gets upset and leaves.
I have nothing against people who like them, or think they are the best, I just don't agree.

Not problem at all, dear centauri. You know what i like you so much. I love to argue with you and with your nowhere arguments and your attempts of being the winner without any valid argument. I admire it in a poster.
