I guess so. I still dont think they were a pop band. That is just a poor and lazy way to describe their music.

Im glad somone is starting to see things a little like I am. Yes, The Beatles were popular. Is there a difference between pop and popular? Pop is short for popular, so in that sense, I guess not. Pop...
