Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jackcrevol]

I heard they hid secret communist messages inbedded in their songs and that is why so many people in that generation are worthless commie hippies.

I like a hippy that showers, works, and who's day doesnt consist of 'hanging out.'

@Glitch i bet you secretly wear mandals.

Yardbirds, Stones, hell definitely Warlocks all had a better sound. Like Elvis over Chuck Berry & Jonny Cash. It was marketing. Granted Elvis was quite talented, and is the King.

Yessir. Really dug the Yardbirds. Didn't really get into the Warlocks, but The Grass Roots...yeah, they worked for me.

I'll see your Bobby Darin and raise you a TN Ernie Ford....

 

[Billy Antrim]

Music is so subjective. What one person finds horrid and ear assaulting another might find great beauty in. I think the Beatles were very overrated but that is such a minority opinion. I can rarely get anyone to actually tell me why they liked the Beatles so much, which leads me to believe that society tells us we should like the Beatles and therefore many people just like the Beatles. I could do without their music and never feel I was missing anything in my life.

I grew up with the Beatles and the only song that I kinda liked was Penny Lane. Rest was meh.

 

[Vols And Bruins]

Nah, he went through all the progressions they pioneered that others later followed to give us the greats of the 70s. Nobody much listens to classical, but that doesn’t mean they know anything about music. Popularity is never a good test for much of anything especially music. Unless you’re actually a Swifty and didn’t tell us.

I truly believe people just need to find the right composer to fall in love with classical! (this is coming from a classical musician tho)

the band had page, clapton, and beck at different points. that's insane

They are the most uplifting band ever. Peace and loving people. There is not a single band that is as positive as they are.

Their sound evolved from simple fun teenage music to thought provoking, boundary pushing masterpieces.

They changed music and they changed the world.

Objectively the greatest band of all time. It wasn't society that tells people to like them. They earned it. Naturally if you're the greatest you'll be labeled overrated right?

Anyone that thinks "they suck" is just biased against them because they just want to be edgy. Especially when you compare their catalog to the history of music, there is absolutely no way they suck. Literally none of the all time great bands from that era actually suck, if you remove bias.

I dont like a lot of country, but I understand how people like it.

Taylor Swift though?

SHE is the most overrated musician of all time and it's not close. That is much easier prove.

I don't care for their music. I don't find it uplifting. I find nothing special or unique about it.

To be fair, I am not a Taylor Swift fan either.

 

[Glitch]

Don't be too hard on Glitch. Don't tell anyone, but he's a closet fan of The Monkee's. Those folks always have an inferiority complex when it comes to the Beatles. Rumor has it that he's got a Davy Jones poster in his bedroom, too.

Last Train to Clarksville is my anthem.

How, in my 49 yrs, have I missed that song?

They just have to listen!

I’m afraid you’re a secret Swifty!

 

[Glitch]

Do you like Wings?

Like on birds and planes? I like them very much. On feminine hygiene products? They are useful.

Now, if anyone doesn't like Jimi Hendrix...then I've got something for you.

Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart is probably my favorite music, period.

 

[Vols4us]

Leave for a few hours and come back to ... holy crap ... the Beatles and Nickelback along with Homer and Jethro singing about a gal with buck teeth eating an ear of corn through a picket fence.

Take a lap, people. Lay off the moonshine for a bit.

All these folks upset I don't like the Beatles...I just...

The "Custom title" checks out

Justin Rogers, the dude that punked us for KY, then Allburn. Just got drafted. In the 7th round. Wow, rankings dont mean crap.

9 of the Top 10 picks held Blue Chip ratings coming out of HS.

22 of 32 of the 1st Round picks were either 4Star or 5Star players out of HS.

Rankings are better than they’ve ever been.

That's fascinating!! A solid choice. I am a Rachmaninoff no 2 or Elgar's Nimrod girl myself.

No, none of those.
