Originally posted by noelluvspotterthat's what the media would like people to think it.. but the reality of it is, is that both John and Paul were no longer seeing eye to eye on the types of music they wanted to produce...
^ Yoko Ono, and Paul, being his stupid lets hog all the fame and try to sue the Beatles kind of were the start of their break up well thats what i think.
I love the beatles. They are the best band ever, and my favourite one is Lennon. He is one of my idols. Alghouth i like paul, george and ringo too.
Best beatle: John Wiston Lennon
Best song: many to post. One of my favourites is "hey jude".
Reason for the end of the beatles: paul and john were in bad relationhip in the last years of the group, and yoko was too annoying and she tried to inluence in the band work, something that disliked to the rest of the group.
* the best band in the world - The Beatles...
* when i first watched their past performances, Paul instantly is a sight to see, like a superstar in the making, he got the looks, the cool bass guitar, the high voice, definitely the spotlight... but later on, i eventually came to like John, more than Paul, John has this icon-persona that no one can take away from him, even until now, he IMO, is the heart of The Beatles... 😉

well it certainly wasn't Yoko... the clash of talents between John and Paul was becoming more evident as they progressed differently in musical styles...
* what kind of music style did John and Paul like, respectively, to have a clash later in the end? for decades, John and Paul collaborated together with their compositions, the Lennon-McCartney tandem was a legend! they don't have to clash, why don't they just compose their own songs? the band don't have to break up just because John and Paul cannot work together, George and Ringo used to write their own songs, why can't they? well, it's too late for that now, but it's just really frustrating - no Beatles now... 🙁
^ The Beatles are legends and legends live on forever but i also think its frustrating because you will never here them in concert together ever again you will never see them together ever again its just so hard to picture the fact that John and George my two favorite ones are dead but because they are both legends and legends never die they are still alive

Paul was heading more towards of a pop mainstream style music...whereas John wanted more of a message type songs. Plus John didn't feel it was necessary to please the corporate side of the music industry and felt that his music should please the fans as well as himself...it was never about the money or getting a number one hit. Paul on the other hand didn't think like John in that aspect. His goal, although he's never admitted nor denied it was that he wanted to make more hits songs that were accessable to not only the fans of the Beatles but to the up and coming teeny-bops as well...

Indeed, for the most part. John, IMO, had the better voice though-no doubt.
if the movie based of Paul's wife Linda McCartney can be believed...it shows that John was the antagonist and not Paul for the break up. I wouldn't recommend that movie btw...really bad.
