Going through that link I went from one to another to find "Put it where you want it" by Jules Fothergill - a brilliant guitartist who was in a gigging band called Roadhouse bit now has his own called Funkydory.

What a way to end it all by Deafschool - a band tipped to be the future of rock back in 1976 - and we all know what happened to them!

The Beatles are a bit overrated. But they do actually have the music to back it up. Whereas Oasis don't. At all.

I strongly disagree with you, about the Beatles being overrated. Remember, with them, it wasn't just about quality, it was quantity as well. They were only together for about 9-and-a-half years, and they produced so much work. Then there's the fact that not one, not two, but three members of the group were lauded as being genius songwriters (Frank Sinatra once hailed George Harrison's 'Something', as the greatest Love song of all time). Oh, and one way the Beatles definately managed to outdo Oasis, was that they'd make each of their songs sound different from the last. They even won an Oscar, for Christ's sake! For me, the only artist that managed to equal them for greatness was James Brown. He also produced a massive amount of amazing work, he created Funk music, which spawned countless other genres of Dance music, he's the world's most sampled artist, and just for good measure, he is even cited as being partly responsible for the creation of Breakdancing! If the Beatles were the Fantastic Four, James Brown would be the Silver Surfer.

I think the Beatles are amazing.

All I mean is that people think it's automatically a fact that they are 'the best band ever'. When each individual should put some more thought into it and decide which band they really like best, not who it is accepted is 'the best' empirically. That is all.

It's not anything to do with them that they are overrated, just other people.

The silver surfer didn't have a cape ;) Totally agree about The Beatles. The quantity and quality of their work speaks for itself.

Oasis aren't in the same league. To use another footballing term, they don't have a strong enough squad.

Stop the Oasis hating!

I think both bands are brilliant, but personally I prefer Oasis to The Beatles. Sure, in the 9 years The Beatles were together they put out some amazing songs, but there was a bit of garbage in there too (same can be said about Oasis).

Even though I prefer Oasis' music, I can't deny that in terms of importance and influence on others, The Beatles were far greater. If there wasn't The Beatles, there wouldn't have been Oasis, and a hell of a lot of other bands too.

It's all subjective, mind. There are some people (heaven help them) on this planet who will think that Busted were better than The Beatles. Whether they deserve to live on this planet is another matter.
