She's just finished watching the results of Strictly Come Dancing and some bird called Michelle went out. They used The Beatles' 'Michelle' to play her out, to which the wife said 'Amazing they found a song with the name 'Michelle' in it', to which I asked 'Er, don't you know this song?', to which she said 'No'.
WTF? 🙄
Also,
I didn't know that either. Can't say I really care that much. Seems like a waste of neurons.
beatles were rubbish.
has to be said.
Agreed, Phil.
Beatles were rubbish?
Blimey better not tell the rest of the world
LOL. I hate the Beatles too and I've never heard of that song. Nor have I ever watched Strictly Come whatever.
The Beatles are stupidly over-rated.
Rubbish? What, their whole career? You're f&*kin mad you are. 😕
*snuggles up in the warm embrace of other people who dont get why everyone seems to love the beatles*
I'm feeling the warmth, Phil...! 😉
Not liking the Beatles here either.
They dont do much for me either
Not liking them is one thing, thinking they were rubbish is something different and wrong
Nope not a fan, one or two decent songs the rest is crapola and derivative.
You can add me to the list of Beatles haters.
Can't stand any of their stuff.
Don't like Liverpool either.

loving the irony, in so many ways!
If they were so good why did they need Oasis to re-write all their songs?
The Beatles were rubbish. Fact.
I'm walking away from this - i'll only get cross
To be fair though to the ops wife though - Michelle was an album track only, and doesn't get played a huge amount
Derivative = Lacking originality.
Nope not a fan, one or two decent songs the rest is crapola and derivative.
Yeah, enlighten me. Kindly find who, musically, the Beatles were derivative of.
Maybe I just lack perspective but I'd have thought tbat whether you liked The Ruttles.. I mean The Beatles or not, you'd still be familiar with the song.
To be fair to the wife, she's a pretty good pilot, which is about as cool a profession you can claim publically so I can forgive her being musically inept.
i always thought they were crap I am sure alot of people don`t like them but it is cool to like them
YeahI dont like the Beatles either, Paul McCartney is an irritating twunt, extremely tight fisted also so I hear.
Come on people - the beatles made a whole career of ripping off oasis.
The Beatles were rubbish. Fact.
No [i]you're[/i] rubbish. Fact.
Can the Beatles haters enlighten us as to who they'd suggest is better?
Bear in mind, it'd have to be y'know an equally statuesque outfit. A group who've had an equally if not larger impact on 20th century culture.
she's a pretty good pilot
Only pretty good?? Note to self - cancel BA card!! 😉

Ah, the old "the bigger the impact the better it makes something" argument. Now how long till Godwin's Law gets fulfilled..
Someone at my work thought david bowie was one of the beatles
Can those without taste keepouting themsleves with such pride. What next Queen were sh!t fact - I dontown any of their records am no fan of their mucsic but it is only really fair to say I dont like their music. Now phil Collins and Mick Hucknall you can call rubbish.
this is derivative?
Can't think of a single Beatles song that doesn't makes me want to destroy the radio spit on a scouser and go and find another couple of bullets.
this is derivative?
Not really, but it is utter tosh.
Like almost all bands of the 60's they were ripping off riffs and heavily influenced by the less popular and considerably less commercially exposed black musicians of the time.
Tell me it ain't so? Same as Elvis the "white man who could sing the blues".
Ah, the old "the bigger the impact the better it makes something" argument. Now how long till Godwin's Law gets fulfilled..
But.. but... the reason they had impact was because lot's of people wanted to do stuff like them. Surely if they were derivative, then we'd be saying that 'whoever the originals were' had the greatest impact.
joolsburger, +1
the only good music to come from Liverpool

This is such shite it's almost as if you've listened to no music at all.
Ok, we should soon start hearing more from the anti-beatles crowd now. X-Factor has just finished.
