Didn't I just say u made me realize the "Pop" factor?

Yes, you did.

But my post was really in response to the following statements you made:

"As far as quoting articles from the media that help make the hype in the 1st place? Means
nothing 2 me. Anyone who thinks the Beatles have made a bigger impact on music than say,
Mj, Prince, Hendrix, Bootsy, P-funk, James Brown, Miles, Stevie Wonder.....and other are nuts
from my point of view."

1. Quoting from outside sources to support one's opinion is an attempt to give an opinion that
has some alliance with fact or research. Give it a world; it will improve your critical reasoning
and debating skills!

2. I'm not "nuts" to accept what is rendered by some authority figures that the Beatles have
had a monumental or the monumental influence on pop music over and above the artists you
mentioned, who have covered the Beatles:














And finally, from an interview with Billboard Magazine given by Bernie Worrell, Bootsy Collins
and George Clinton talking about the Beatles (Worrell, Collins, and Clinton is the "they" referred
to in the article):

But they also delved into the writing, recording, and engineering process behind creating an
entirely new genre from scratch -- which, of course, was not really from scratch at all, but was
rooted in much of the music at the time, specifically Motown and the Beatles. "Sgt. Pepper -- we
liked it so much, we recorded the entire album in 1967, but never put it out," said Clinton. "But
that turned us around -- that and Sly's music -- that you could be funk and pop at the same time.
We had all of it."

The Beatles were the shit, dude, and you should probably recognize even if you don't like them!

We can agree 2 disagree.

Can we at least agree that The Beatles are ONE of the most influential groups in popular music of the last 50 years? Then we can put this to rest.

Yes.

I show you clips of MJ doing a Beatles' tune; a clip of James Brown doing a Beatles' tune; Prince
doing a Beatles' tune; Miles Davis doing a Beatles' tune; Stevie Wonder doing a Beatles' tune;
Jimi Hendrix doing a Beatles' tune; and then I give you an interview by Parliament who talk about
being so influenced by the Beatles that they recorded Sgt. Peppers themselves in its entirety and
the best you can do is say:

We can agree to disagree?

LOL! You're a piece of work. There is no disagreement, my stubborn and contrarian friend. You
are simply refusing to agree out of spite and/or some attempt to save face. But whatever's clever,
bro - when George Clinton tells ya that he was influenced by the Beatles and you see Miles Davis
playing "Strawberry Fields Forever," what more do you want?!

Sometimes love ain't enough, Super.

But this time it is. Put it to rest, ducci. Love you too.

You're right.

I responded with a FACT, everything I read is an OPINION. Next time start the topic with a disclaimer that says "this thread is for arguing like a bunch of high school girls" and I'll skip it.
