The Rolling Stones have had something like 30 hit albums & we`re supposed to be 'pwned' because they had one minor hit with a Beatles song.

Oh Please

And how many good ones?

The Stones as great as they can be, were much much more hit and miss than The Beatles were, both made their share of mediocre songs, but The Beatles never really did a bad studio album, The Rolling Stones have made a half a dozen or so, of course The Stones have had 30 years of more longativity, so this comparison probably isnt fair.

I still think The Beatles were better for several reasons, one is that they make better music (in my opinion), two they were better musicians and three they made 7 classic albums in a 5 year period, which is pretty damn remarkable i think...And both are equal when it comes to albums that could be considered classics...Of course The Stones had longativity on their side, The Beatles didnt.

Minor hit?
That song was the Stones' very first number 1 hit.

It wasn`t

It`s All Over Now was their first No 1

I'm pretty sure it was their first #1 in the US

EDIT: I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere

No, I was not aware of that. That is very interesting. I guess that blows my theory right out of the water. I got pwned, whatever that means. LOL.

That's actually a pretty cool piece of musical knowledge. I learn something just about every time I come into this place.

Excuse me, I need to go scrub the egg off my face before it dries. LOL.

The Beatles wrote let it be, the stones wrote let it bleed. But we have a beatles vs. stone thread....

For all the green day bashing out there, I used to not understand why Blink-182 didn't get bashed alot more. While Greenday moved away from their original sounds (albeit slowly), Blink-182 did an about face at dude ranch and only got worse from there.

What makes it easier to bash Greenday is that they were more successful, and the more a culture loves something, the more the counter-culture loves to be against it. Therefore, bands that really inspire adoration in a demographic (which can denote talent) is hated far more than bands who actually deserve it.

An interesting question that might make you mindless lemmings think for once is "what band is rated poorly, and deserves that rating" with nothing to 'rage against' I wonder how you might answer.
