I think everyone on this forum can agree that Lady Justin Cyrus Spears is bad music and no one should listen to it. They have a limited shelf life and will fade into New Kids territory soon enough.

Different strokes and all that.

I remember when they came over here and did their first tour. Remember the Beatles trading cards. Remember the little girls in the hood going all gaa gaa over them. Remember when their songs first hit the charts.

There're a few songs they did I like. Norwegian Wood comes to mind.

But I never cared much for them. I preferred Buffalo Springfield, Cream, the Stones, Joplin and the Holding Co. - a whole host of others. The sixties were a rich time for music.

They were good, but just a part of a large whole.

Srg.pepper is overated. Let it be was the best and always makes me think about how much more they could have done.

I'd be perfectly happy to never listen to another Beatles tune and not regret it. I know a lot of people still listen to them, but I find their stuff tired, dated, and not really relevant today.

Now Led Zeppelin on the other hand!

Preach on, brother!! I'm a decade older than you, and have listened to them all my life. Enough is enough. I liked them when I was younger, but have 100% burned out on them! That's it, plain and simple - Burn Out. I don't have a single Beatles tune on my iPhone or on any of my computers. Just can't listen to them any more. pretty much the same way with Elvis. I recently purchased over 500 LPs from a guy, which had a dozen or so original Beatles album hidden in the lot. Plan on selling every last one of them. Same with the dozen or more Elvis LPs in the bunch.

Music is like cigars. Listen to what you like and like what you listen to. There's no such thing as bad music as long as somebody is gaining enjoyment from it.

What ever happened to Shaun Cassidy? He seemed to have such a promising future.

:r

He actually has stayed very busy as a produced on TV shows, including several big shows. Latest is on several episodes of "Blue Bloods". I saw his name on several of the episodes, and had to look it up to see if it was the same person!

The Beatles aren't on my list of favorite bands, but they have LOTS of songs I enjoy.

I prefer to listen to silence over intolerant rants though (not you, Andy). Stones, Elvis, Floyd = meh? Gimmie a break. :rolleyes:

The Stones were the best British band in my opinion. But they've overstayed their welcome.
