Unpopular take: The Beatle's are overrated. Not good.
-
It's not that unpopular of a take.
They might make the Throbber's Top 10 Brit bands. Maybe.

The Rolling Stones are my favorite all time recording artists. And I own pretty much every LP released by the various UK classic rock acts.
I understand people getting burned out on Beatles overplay, no doubt, but to say they were "overrated" is madness.
-
I used to think they were overrated but realize they’re simply over played. Yella has been a good teacher in the subject of the history of music.

I think it's really important to get the labels, right.
"Overplayed" - For example, I love Led Zeppelin, but they overplayed when I was in college and I got burned out for a while. There's no question that The Beatles have been overplayed for 60 years now, but that doesn't diminish their achievements.
"Overrated" - The most overrated rock groups IMO are bands like Kiss, Green Day, Guns and Roses, etc. There's never been a rock group in history which can touch the Beatles for artistic growth over a brief period of 6 years and it's not even close.
-
About 10-15 Beatles songs are over played and for the most part they aren't their best. Lennon-McCartney have over 200 original tunes to their credit. I've seen it written that it's the most of anyone since Mozart.
Whatever. People like what they like. You can't really tell them what to like or I would and I doubt that would be much fun for anyone...aside from me.
