Is it normal to not know the beatles?

I was chatting with a friend and I told her I bought a Beatles CD, since she didn't said anything about it I asked her "Do you know The Beatles?" To my surprise the answer was no. Nothing at all, music, lyrics, people, videos, nothing at all.

    She more than likely may have heard one of their songs but just not know who they are.

      That's more likely the case.

    When I was growing up it was a big debate on who you liked better. The Beatles or The Rolling Stones. Each band had the great moments. I liked the Beatles best.

    Your friend must live in a cave. Haha! :)

      I like the stones better because they were angry bad boys plus they kept going while the beatles broke up

    What the fuck?! How could not know about the beetles?! That's not only a parenting but also a society fail. The Outrage!

    Sure, if you've been living in a bomb shelter with no television, newspaper or radio since the fifties. Then, it's totally normal.

    Lol, no it's not normal at all. She must live under a rock, as do all the other people who claim they don't know who the beatles are. ^^
    Personally, I absolutely love their music and I listen to them often. For those of you who don't like them, at least recognize their influence on music. They are simply amazing. <3

    Get your friend a cd, too. c:

    It's normal if your friend spent her entire life living in a cave, or if she's like 7 years old. Even my 9 year old nephew knows who they are.

    It's not normal, but they had disbanded before most of us were even born. They'll be less-known as time goes on. How many people know who Bessie Smith is, for instance? Or Jenny Lind? Or Robert Fairfax?
