The Beatles VS. The Rolling stones

[Friday on my mind]

A poll for the unimportant age group primarily.:1orglaugh
Easy choice for me although both had some great tunes,I think the Beatles is the clear choice.

Well, the way I see it, the Beatles are the Beatles. And the Stones...well they aren't the Beatles...but The Who would crush them both!

 

[YMIHERE]

The Beatles transcended Rock N Roll to Art. But the Rolling Stones are pure Rock N Rock at it's best. I choose the evil Stones.

 

[BlueBalls]

I think there both great but the early Rolling Stone songs are some of the greatest ever made.

The "art" part is what makes the Beatles so annoying and contrived in my book.

Had the Stones stopped with Emotional Rescue... maybe Tattoo You.. they would be a shoe in for me. But, the garbage since '80-'81....

The Rolling Stones for me. Mostly because they played hard, soul rock and did it well.

Yeah that's the thing that kills me about the Stones. They did produce some real crap later on.

 

[D-rock]

I pick the Rolling Stones because they are less overrated than the Beatles.

 

[om3ga]

Actually I like both groups...but the Beatles just shade it for me

 

[member987]

Stones, hands down for me.

 

[meesterperfect]

I am and have been a huge Stones fan since I was 10.
I got everything they did up until 86, I even got live if you want it..... plus I have the entire Beatles collection.
I cannot answer this question.

 

[poggy]

I'll again take a option three...

I don't judge bands this way.

Reason is simple, liking all types of music. It also goes for the band. Some tracks I like, other I don't and this goes for these two bands.

The Stones, they have so many great Rock N Roll singles it's unreal.

I am one of the few rock lovers that was never into the Beatles. I do like the Rolling Stones though .

 

[Moe_Fuzz]

Rock and Roll is about rebellion and that's what the Rolling Stones represented. The Beatles were too cute and safe as milk. The :bowdown:Stones win this hands down

 

[Friday on my mind]

While the Stones had a lot of hits ,I think The Beatles had a few as well!

Who cares if the Beatles had hits, their music is just ahhh I think they are the most overrated band ever. It's such boring music. The Stones are pure rock and roll.

Rolling Stones wrote Gimmie Shelter which is such a badass song, Beatles don't have anything badass.

Gimmie Shelter is so badass, Scorsese has used it 3 times(possibly more) in his movies and it just sounds badass.
