For me, if I ask for an unpopular opinion and you say something about pineapple on pizza I’m going to assume you have no personality.

“The Beatles are overrated”
Not only is it untrue, but even if you don’t like their music you’re an idiot if you can’t see their influence.
I see more influence from Jazz, and other genres of black origin, than anything the Beatles have come up with.
That’s because you refuse to see their influence.
It’s hard to see something that doesn’t exist. And I don’t do faith and beliefs.
Still overrated. Right place, right time. If it wasn’t them, it could have just as easily been someone else.
Contrarianism doesn’t make up for a lack of personality. You not liking something doesn’t make it overrated.
The Beatles are overrated and liking them to the degree you do shows a lack of originality.
Because being a contrarian is so original in today’s world. If you were smart enough to know how dumb you sound you’d be embarrassed.
I’m not contrarian. I’ve never thought much of the Beatles. It wasn’t until they got their own whole band game (back when those were popular) that I realised Beatles were somehow enjoyed by more than just really old people.
I think the dispute is over what defines overrated. I think they can be aptly called overated if you are looking at the technical aspects of the actual music they wrote.
But if we’re defining it by influence on a genre or era of music then it would be hard to make the same claim.
By no metric can the amount of classic albums they put out in a 5 year span be considered overrated.
Yes, but that is again another metric by which to judge. The amount of albums does not affect the technical complexity of the music. And I am by no means trying to claim that music needs to be technically advanced to be good, it’s just another way in which an individual could possibly be judging if something is or isn’t overated. The quality of the music itself is always going to be subjective, while the cultural impact of the music is not. So I can see both sides of the argument.
True. But a lot of people praising something more than merited does.
Idk if you put someone in a pilot seat that isn’t a pilot, it’s an extraordinary effort and newsworthy if they don’t crash the plane.
Even if they got given the plane, they are still great pilots. Every album is novel and there are so many.
I don’t think this person will admit that. They’ve convinced themselves that they know more about it than pretty much every artist that came after the Beatles.
If the beatles were fingerless or deaf, or had never heard music before, you might have a point.
You’re so mean
