Nope. As far as pop music goes, the Beatles were in a league of their own. Mainly because what they were playing was not considered pop back then. It was different from the popular music of the day.

All of the best “pop” bands are the ones who play stuff that isn’t exactly pop at the time, but are able to make it digestible for the casual music fan so that people, who typically only listen to pop, get into it anyway despite it being divergent from the sound of what they’re used to. And to do that, they have to be undeniably good songwriters.

Although there bands are like Fleetwood Mac that I respect much as the Beatles I can't say there are ones I respect more.

Though I do like a lot of their songs I do think they are overrated.

There are only exactly 2 Beatles songs i enjoy, so i don't have the most tremendous respect for them as musicians.

I don't like any of their music but can't deny the influence

As far as pop rock goes, no, there's nobody quite like them. Although I love the Beach Boys too. The harmonies they came up with were actually very intricate, even though people dismissed them and called them hacks.

Reason: Never quoted as an influence by Noel Gallagher.

They were great songwriters, great innovators, decent musicians in general, and had brilliant production values for the time(Martin/Emerick/etc).

That said, there have been many great musicians who have progressed the art form. And I don't necessarily place the Beatles on a pedestal above the others.

The Beetles image, lifestyle and music played a huge role in setting this country on the path to destruction that it is on at this very moment so I have zero respect for them, I hate them really

The Beatles are overrated cans @Kaybee

 

[SuperHoss]

Beatles are the greatest. Kudos to the Byrds, the Beach Boys and some of the early California folk rock that influenced them as they evolved to become what they are. They ended up influencing just about everyone.

I'll take my Dave Clark Five, thank you very much.

I'll take Prince over The Beatles any day if we're talking pop music. The guy was crazy talented, his catalogue is full of variety yet it's all beautiful, didn't steal much from others and no Japanese weirdo told him what to do. I always liked George Harrison, he's a cool lad.
