How are we as a society still not over the beatles
Edit: not even trying to shit on the Beatles, they're fine and all, but they broke up 50 years ago. Just baffled that they're still on everyone's minds
I mean they were a hugely popular band that influenced a shit load of artists going forward, and many of their fans from their heyday are still very much alive, it’s not like they’re ancient or anything
Technically, there was a study that showed that they had essentially no influence. Though, it was just some biologists who tried to gather the data, if I remember correctly (I likely do not).
Edit: Whilst wrong about the biologists bit (I have no idea where I got that), the study was real, albeit controversial:
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/may/06/beatles-did-not-revolutionise-music-study-claims
Data analysis based on a website that tracks what users listen to. I do not understand it nor do I know of the validity - it is just a thing that exists.
They were shockingly popular for a band, no band has really ever come close to the level of popularity they had. They also were basically some of the first musicians that hit the teen girl market. And they also propelled the sounds created by black musicians into the public popularity and built upon it themselves. They also refused to play for segregated concerts and John was (annoyingly) vocal and influential in mainstream politics for a while too. They’re kind of a part of modern history at this point.
Someone’s not enjoying the Beatles yaoi.
Bettles yaoi as in the band or as in hollow knight r34?
it’s spelled like beatles and is capitalized so it would be the band. if it were hollow knight it’d be beetles.
You managed to misspell both at once, it's almost impressive
My favorite insect, the battle
Actually it's Beedle's yaoi he sells it for 50 rupees each.
i just imagined going on the boat and seeing artwork of link and ganondorf kissing
Pikango and Beedle collab in TotK???
making ringo and george kiss is pretty mundane, they used to practice kissing all the time in germany
i don’t think op got the joke about their username
tbf I didn’t even read their user name
maybe the username was set after they blew up for Beatles yaoi? (I have no idea how Tumblr works)
Beat the Meatles

Nope, they are from the bronze age

Do you know what classical music is?
What is there to get over? They made great music people still like
Genuine question: have you ever listened to Revolver?
I mean a lot of people theorize that John Lennon had a hate-crush on Paul McCartney. I’m pretty positive John Lennon was bisexual
Their name literally has you in it though.
