Gabe has never heard the Beatles before. This is unthinkable for all rock fans. But it is true. The best selling musical group in the world never sold anything to Gabe. To try to convince Gabe to like their music, Nick has him hear two songs of theirs.

They experimented. They pushed boundaries, sometimes ignoring them. "I Am the Walrus".....insane!!! I'll admit that there are bands I think are as good (Yes; XTC) but you can't be better than the Beatles, anymore than you can break the speed of light barrier. And what makes them so exceptional is that they already had a VERY successful career of cranking out pop hits, but they wanted to do more, and they risked their fan-base to do it. When Sgt. Pepper came out, some dj's refused to plwy it. Us kids taught them a lesson.

They’re the best-selling artists of all time (not just biggest rock band) and responsible for every piece of music your friend likes or listens to today. They made some 215 songs in just 7 years (as a band) and changed everything. Their invention, innovation, experimentation, and influence can’t be overstated.

Not only that, but in the early 1960s, they only used a limited number of cameras that were so big that they had to be mounted on wheels. The performers of the day had to remain in the one spot whilst it was the cameras that moved around them. The Beatles film, A Hard Days Night actually references this. So, even in this The Beatles tried to introduce something different and as the 60s progressed this would be another area in which their screen presence evolved.

My friend Cindy rushes in choking out the words "Paul is dead! Paul McCartney is dead!" It was an urban legend that ran rampant among the school girls of my generation. He had supposedly died in 1966 and been replaced by a look-alike to keep Beatlemania going. There were supposed to be clues on some of the songs and on LP covers. My older sister and I went through our albums trying to play songs backwards where the clues were supposed lurk and we scrutinized the cover photo of Abbey Road trying to make sense of it. We agreed it was probably just a rumor - but I had many friend who insisted on it.

The Beatles' massive shot to fame can't be attributed to one song, as different songs of theirs had blown up in different countries, generally several songs at a time. Early songs by The Beatles which had definitely made them international superstars are Love Me Do, P.S. I Love You, Please Please Me, She Loves You, I Want to Hold Your Hand, I Saw Her Standing There, their cover of the Top Notes' Twist and Shout, their cover of Chuck Berry's Roll Over Beethoven, Can't Buy Me Love, A Hard Day's Night, I Feel Fine, Eight Days a Week, Ticket to Ride, and their cover of Chuck Berry's Rock and Roll Music. Between 1962 and 1965, there hadn't been an artist who could've touched their shot to being the top band, and they'd become better and better for five years after. I'd hedge Twist and Shout being the most iconic early song by The Beatles, as well as one of the most iconic songs by The Beatles. Once they'd covered it, it had become the most well-known cover of arguably any song in history. Hearing it is what I imagine would make most people aware that they're listening to The Beatles. If the main aim is to impress with songs by The Beatles, five go-tos which I recommend for reactions are: The trilogy of Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight, and The End Strawberry Fields Forever Revolution 1 Something We Can Work It Out While My Guitar Gently Weeps isn't an obscure song by The Beatles, to clarify. It's one of the three most popular songs by The Beatles which had been written and sung by George Harrison, and one of its guitar solos had been played by Eric Clapton. Obscure songs are most songs on early albums and soundtracks by The Beatles. Nearly every song from Rubber Soul to Let It Be on a studio album is well-loved and consistently praised. I look forward to more reactions to The Beatles from you two!!! Please keep it up!!! 😄💙

The more I look back on the Beatles the more I appreciate them. Beatles were the first group to write their own music where most artists were backed by songwriting teams and with their sound engineer George Martin developed many recording techniques that shaped the future of music. They were the first stadium rock band when they performed in the Shea stadium in 1964 and were also fashion icons with their own self styled hair cut and suites a style copied by many bands throughout the 60's. In short no other bunch of musicians has influenced pop culture throughout the years like the Beatles and you can stil here their influence in bands such as Oasis, Tears for fears and many others.

The Beatles began by doing covers of other songs, like every band of that era. The first two albums were a mix of their own material and covers, but their own material was the stuff that captured the imagination of fans. Their third album, A Hard Day's Night, was the first mainstream album ever to feature 100% their own songs.

In fairness, Thriller has sold nearly twice as many copies as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, which is the best-selling album by The Beatles, and it's the best-selling album of all time.

@daleviker5884 Год назад

@@chrismeadows4216 In the interests of complete fairness though, comparing the album sales of Thriller with Sgt Peppers is comparing apples with concrete. The 1960s and 1980s were worlds apart economically and technically. When "Beatlemania" was at its peak from 1963-65, the average person could not afford albums, and it was only about singles. Throughout the Beatles career their most popular songs weren't on the albums. They sold more than 1.6 billion singles, which was dominance like never seen before or since. Without acknowledging that, saying that Sgt Peppers (with no singles on it) "only" sold 35m copies compared with 70m for Thriller (which had three of MJ's most famous singles on it, Billie Jean, Beat It and Thriller) is a meaningless comparison. It was the Beatles popularity that actually changed the way music was sold. Their 5th and 6th albums, Rubber Soul and Revolver, were the first albums to become mass market purchases (10m+ copies), simply because they were so good that people saved to buy them. When Sgt Peppers then sold the numbers it did (30m+), it was extraordinary for that era. Most people who bought Sgt Peppers were buying an album for the first time in their life. As a result of the Beatles success, studios and artists saw the commercial potential of albums, and they began their rise as the dominant format in place of singles, which eventually disappeared. And in the Beatles era understand that it was vinyl records and nothing else. Recorded music sales overall really only took off in the 1970s when cassettes became affordable, because for the first time people could take music out of the house, and even into their cars. Then in the early 1980s came CDs, which made music even more portable, and coincided with the launch of MTV. Michael Jackson was talented, and Thriller was a great album, but he was in the right place at the right time, with the videos being perfect for the start of the MTV era.

@chrismeadows4216 Год назад

@@daleviker5884, your points are well-reasoned, though it needs to be considered that once CDs had become accessible and affordable to everyone, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Thriller had both been available on equal footing in an age of the world having a much larger population, and as newer generations have been able to trace classic albums back and buy them, Michael Jackson's Thriller sales have been exponentially more notable, likely more due to his death and public circumstances than due to it being more recently released than Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Forty years is a very long time ago, not much more than toward sixty years ago. The Beatles hadn't had much competition in their era, even of Elvis Presley and the Rolling Stones. Michael Jackson had competition of David Bowie, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Queen, U2, Madonna, Prince, Phil Collins, and Janet Jackson, and had crushed everyone with Thriller. Thriller has everything on it which is essential listening in pop, r&b, soul, funk, and hard rock, including Paul McCartney. It isn't the greatest fairness that album sales aren't closer, but it's Thriller.

@daleviker5884 Год назад

@@chrismeadows4216 No one is arguing that Thriller wasn't a good album, but some of your points are really stretching it a bit. You say that The Beatles had no competition other than Elvis and The Stones, which conveniently omits - just in the year of Sgt Peppers alone - Hendrix, the Who, Bob Dylan, the Beach Boys, Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd, the Doors, Cream, the Supremes, Jefferson Airplane, the Monkees, Simon & Garfunkel, and countless others. It was actually a far more competitive era than the early 1980s. And you can't refute the point I made about singles being the popular form of record sale in the 1960s as compared with albums. The Beatles top 20 hits weren't even on their albums, they were only released as singles, and if you look at the total sales of everything, the Beatles sold more than 2 BILLION records of all types, way out in front of anyone else. The other thing I charitably didn't point out is that while Sgt Peppers was the Beatles top selling album, it wasn't that far in front of Revolver, Rubber Soul, the White Album and Abbey Road. If you look at any critical or fan list, you will find widespread differences of opinion on what the Beatles best album was (let alone the singles). MJ was more than a one-hit wonder, obviously, but he sure didn't have five or six other albums of similar stature to Thriller. You're comparing an artist who had a great career, with one standout album, to a band that revolutionized music, changed the way it was consumed, and defined a generation.

I bought them took them home, and played them for my daughter. After she heard the songs, she asked me if she could have the CDs. I gave them to her, and went back to the store and bought a second set of them for myself. Seeing my daughter really enjoy their music, really made me happy, because it showed me that their music was timeless. I'm sure that Gabe knows a lot of rap music, or what I call crap music, because it all sounds the same to me. What Gabe doesn't understand was that, back when this music came out, the Beatles type of music was the "IN thing", I mean, that's what was popular back then. If you played rap music back then, no one would have listened to it, so music preferences are a generational thing. In the 50's, there was Doo-Wap music, the 60's and 70's was rock and roll, the late 70's and 80's it was disco, now it's hip-hop and rap. What I have found over the years (I'm 70 years old), is that, all generations like rock and roll music. If a rock and roll song came on the radio today, a young person would move to the beat of the song, even though they probably wouldn't know who the artists were. Rock and roll was considered the devil's music by parents when it came out because it made young people want to get up and dance.

In the song “ A Day In a Life “ they tell the story of a car crash & at the end of Strawberry Fields you’ll hear what many believed to be “ I buried Paul “ there’s more to it & you can read it on the internet .

Their first album came out in 1962, they quit touring in 1966 and were broken up by 1970 and they're still, to this day, the top selling group ever year
