I'm only 19 and The Beatles are in my top 5 bands list, and through high school, many of my friends and others would always were vintage Beatles's shirts, especially the famed Abbey Road one. Why do you think the Beatles have continued to prosper and remain in music limelight? Is it a mere pretending by fans who just want to like the them because everyone else does?

I like them because their music changed music itself and I was heavily influenced by my grandfather who was a huge George Harrison fan. In fact, Hey Jude, reminded me of my own family life when I was younger and even today.

The Beatles wrote great songs and they "started it all" !!!!! My favorite band of all times no question about it!

My favorite band all time as well. I grew up on them, among others.

Yesterday and Michelle also Day Tripper. Wow they have a lot of good songs! But I thought of those first.

I don't like the Beatles that much. I didn't really grow up on them, as my parents were more into current bands (at the time) like Nirvana and Sublime when I was little.

I've been a Beatles fan since I saw them on Ed Sullivan the first time. Even got to see them in concert twice. To this day they remain one of my favorite bands - over 40 years (!!) later.

I can take them or leave them. I am not a big fan although I greatly respect them it would not be something I would want to listen to frequently. There are some great songs, but I don't look forward to hearing them in the same way that I would my all time favourite which is Led Zeppelin.
