They did have about half a dozen good tracks. But they are terribly, terribly, breathtakingly overrated.

The Beatles weren't quite rubbish.
That is correct.

Yes he did. And now I've quoted you quoting him saying it, but I don't get the idea of the thread yet.

Up top I said 'Discuss' Aaron's thesis that The Beatles weren't quite rubbish and that 'They did have about half a dozen good tracks. But they are terribly, terribly, breathtakingly overrated.'
I quite like them.
But not all their phases.
Just certain songs.
The Beatles were brilliant, visionary and pushed the boundaries of what pop music could be. There, I think we've counter-balanced the argument. Can we go home now? 
I don't care if they are overrated or underrated. Doesn't affect me or whether I like their songs.
Why do people get so obsessed with whether something is overrated?
Getting to 30000 posts is overrated. Discuss.
Nah, it's underrated. Everyone thinks it's really sad.
