The Beatles.

I was always very respectful of Mick and the Stones, but he said a lot of sort of tarty things about the Beatles, which I am hurt by because, you know, I can knock the Beatles, but don't let Mick Jagger knock them. I would like to just list what we did and what the Stones did two months after on every fuckin' album. Every fuckin' thing we did, Mick does exactly the same - he imitates us. And I would like one of you fuckin' underground people to point it out. You know, Satanic Majesties is Pepper; ``We Love You,'' it's the most fuckin' bullshit, that's ``All You Need Is Love.'' I resent the implication that the Stones are like revolutionaries and that the Beatles weren't. If the Stones were or are, the Beatles really were, too. But they are not in the same class, musicwise or powerwise, never were. I never said anything, I always admired them, because I like their funky music, and I like their style. I like rock & roll and the direction they took after they got over trying to imitate us. He's obviously so upset by how big the Beatles are compared with him, he never got over it. Now he's in his old age, and he is beginning to knock us, you know, and he keeps knocking. I resent it, because even his second fuckin' record, we wrote it for him. Mick said, ``Peace made money.'' We didn't make any money from peace.

i, too, sometimes enjoy trolling

12/2/2010 4:07:15 PM

So does just mean the Beatles are just a shitty version of the Monkees?

12/2/2010 4:08:46 PM

^^^ It's the truth.

^^ It's not trolling. I swear, you fucking idiots don't know what trolling is. What is being said that is trolling? You guys want to cream your pants over the Stones, then yell troll when someone says they basically just rip from The Beatles.

^ That doesn't make sense.

12/2/2010 4:10:10 PM

At least Mick didn't let some slant-eye cunt ruin his band.

LOL! To say one thing is shitty over another, does not mean that in absolute terms, both are shitty, or that thing that is being compared against is shitty. In this case, The Beatles aren't shit, but the Rolling Stones are a shitty version of them. In absolute terms, it's the same as saying The Beatles > The Rolling Stones.

But you can't listen to "You can't always get what you want," and not think, "This sounds like 'Hey Jude.'" It's fucking impossible. Their content may be different, but structure wise, they're the same fucking song.

The Rolling Stones were just a bunch of uncreative hacks before The Beatles broke up, and after they broke up, nobody gave a shit about them.

12/2/2010 5:26:10 PM

yeah, but do the Beatles have an ENTIRE FUCKING MAGAZINE named after them?

do they??

HUH???

12/2/2010 5:40:01 PM

Rolling Stone magazine isn't named after the Rolling Stones.

12/2/2010 5:45:41 PM

fuck yeah it is. it's named after the band (singular), not the members (plural)

LOOK IT UP

Clearly you dont know what the fuck youre talking about.

I used to hang out at the Filmore East and watch the Rolling Stone every night

Either way, the beatles are overrated as hell.

12/2/2010 5:57:35 PM

merbig is just a shittyier version of Chance

12/2/2010 5:58:27 PM

^^ The fuck does that even mean? The term "overrated" has lost all meaning. It's what someone says when everybody finds something truly awesome, yet they only find it marginally awesome. So they say it's "overrated," when in all likelihood, they like shitty things to begin with (like what hipsters like), and they're probably just overall douchebags who are overcritical on every fucking thing of everything.

^ amac884 is a shitty version of merbig. You make Darwin disappoint.

12/2/2010 6:10:01 PM

merbig explains it all

12/2/2010 6:12:09 PM

^^ "what hipsters like" ?? the fuck does that even mean? i'm a hipster and i don't like a goddamned thing.

12/2/2010 6:18:54 PM

^^ Basically, yeah. I proved AndyMac is a hipster. To be honest, I've only heard hipsters use the term "overrated," like they're some fucking connoisseur of good music.

^ The term "overrated" is a hipster term. Certainly you agree. Hipsters think everything is overrated, and it's even more overrated when everybody likes something. You probably think the NFL is overrated, with it being the #1 sport watched sport in the US. You probably tolerate Lacrosse or some bullshit sport.

i say you're an overrated vinylbandit wannabe music snob. look at you coming on here, acting like you're people and shit.

12/2/2010 6:22:02 PM

I just hate shitty music, like rap, country, anything hipsters listen too, most underground shit. If that makes me a music snob, then so be it.

Country= All the same shit. Shitty singing, acoustic guitar, dumb redneck story.
Rap = Heavy bass, can't hear shit, stupid shitty nigger themes about being a criminal and having babies and leaving them behind.
Hipster music= intentionally stupid.
Underground shit = Nobody knows about it for a reason, it's shit.

12/2/2010 6:28:17 PM

the beatles fucking suck. that is all.

12/2/2010 6:51:27 PM

I'm really interested in what you consider hipster music...mind naming a few bands?

Totally, when the Illinois fans chanted this at UNC they proved they were all hipsters.

12/2/2010 8:03:44 PM

^^^ Anything that is highly rated at Pitchfork. Unfortunately, I don't obsess about the hipster subculture like most of you douche nozzles on here do. I don't care to understand them or know what they are all about. If you do, good for you, you're a faggot anyway.

^ Yeah, they are a bunch of fucking hipsters. Instead of shouting that they are overrated, you say that they are a bunch of cheaters who suck and that UNC caters to the hipster cuntface crowd. But they didn't take the high road, instead deciding to go the hipster route, thus, making them a hipster like yourself.

and what kind of waterhead aspergers reject still uses "douche nozzle" in a sentence?

12/3/2010 10:10:47 AM

Ron Isley kinda has a point


but its those qualities that he mentions that makes me love those genres

well, aside from hipster fodder and garage underground shit, most that shit is trash and unendearing

this is all music for the college kid that couldnt defend themselves in a grade school recess yard

12/3/2010 10:26:15 AM

^x7. I forgot to add the qualifier, "of the 2000s." Really, or the last couple of years. 1960s music isn't "hip," it's [old].

It's not a music genre, you fucking moron. That's like saying "floor" is a music genre. Hipster music=music hipsters listen to.

By the Pitchfork metric, Kanye West is the most popular musical artist among hipsters.

12/3/2010 7:17:43 PM

I think Kanye West sucks ass. So I won't disagree with you about Kanye's music appealing to a bunch of hipsters.

12/3/2010 7:19:55 PM

I, too, hate inventive musicians who display complex layers of emotion in their songs.

Like the fucking Beatles. Fuck those guys.

12/3/2010 7:22:08 PM

Only thing Kanye West displays is fucking annoying auto tune.

12/3/2010 8:08:59 PM

People talked the same shit about the Beatles when they started using a Mellotron.

12/4/2010 8:40:51 PM

this "rock and roll" is the devil's music

12/4/2010 8:43:27 PM

^^ No, they didn't. Using sound samples isn't anywhere near the same as autotune.
