you ruined it with that intro. :(

@rockermanmatt I might be wrong, but I was always under the impression that Buddy Holly wrote most of his own songs as well. Not saying The Beatles weren't the ones to make it famous. But I just don't think they were the first.
-
@aronkacska Now wait just a minute. I'm not a huge fan of the Beatles, but there's no way that the Beatles don't have rhythm. You go listen to Lady Madonna, Because, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band... etc. and tell me that's not rhythm.
I hate black supremacy just as much as I hate white supremacy.

@marijansikic No, he didn't. Elvis is the second most successful artist of all time in terms of sales, right behind the Beatles.
-
@aronkacska Except, you know, they revolutionized modern music. Your comment was respectable until that last bit.
-
@pmurph019 Popularity and quality are often poorly correlated.
But, there can be no serious argument than any band since the invention of amplification rivals the Beatles in quality, influence, importance, or any other measure you care to name.
They changed *everything*.
Before the Beatles rock n' roll was a passing fad; kid's music; bubble gum
By the time they were finished; rock n' roll was serious adult art.
To suggest otherwise is a result of simple ignorance, and hardly a crime.

@pmurph019 Elvis sold more than Beatles

For those who have commented saying The Beatles are "Lame" (which is frankly blasphemy) please read the following fact (yes fact) go back into your little hole and come back with some taste;

Whadya know.. Number 1. End.

@aronkacska You obviously haven't listened to very much music.
By the way, it's spelt "Boy". People will take you more seriously if you don't butcher the proper spelling of words.

@Nilguiri The Beatles were the first to start writing their own songs. In '64 the Stones were releasing covers (Come On, Carole, Not Fade Away, I Wanna Be Your Man (A Beatles cover)) the Beatles had already written their own songs years earlier. They pioneered recording techniques, modern touring, music videos etc while the Stones played the same music for decades (great music), much of it badly recorded. Sgt Pepper changed the western world, and is a feat even today.
