The Beatles question

[Just John]

Similarities between I am the Walrus and I wanna hold your hand. (I'm going to be brief here because I had things to do today and was going to leave it, but I didn't want to keep you waiting)

-Same era and same genre: Let's not forget that there wasn't the diversity in music there is now as there was in the 60s. You had The Stones, The Kinks and The Beatles. None of these bands are anything new to me in the slightest and I've heard them regularly since I was as young as I can remember. It's only natural that after a while you hear the same vocalist and it just goes in one ear and out of the other. Look at modern pop music now, I couldn't tell the difference between the pussycat dolls, atomic kitten, the spice girls etc. It all sounds the same to me because I've heard it so often that I tune it out.

You're forgetting that my original statement. I said that it conjured up the same imagery.

Maybe in America The Beatles are still some kind of exotic import, but over here there is only so many times you can hear a Liverpudlian vocalist without thinking 'Oh The Beatles' and promptly losing all interest. They may seem like individual pieces of musical art to you, but in England, we hear it all the time and simply don't give a toss.

So once again I direct you to my original post:

What exactly is wrong with this statement? It just seems to me like you can't stand the idea that someone might think differently about The Beatles and therefore jumped to conclusions and assumed I must obviously be listening to something totally different

So once again I will ask you; what is wrong with my original post now that you realise that I have listened to a variety of their work and it still conjures up the same imagery?
