The first band to successfully meld Pop and Rock. 5 Year olds like them; grandmothers like them. In many ways, they're the Pizza of "modern" music.
40 years after their breakup, they still sell more than 90% of the current bands. I can understand why the younger generations might resent The Beatles - they've monopolized pop/rock for decades. Then again, haven't most of the under 30 crowd turned to Rap?
The magic of The Beatles was in the amazing harmonies. And on each album post Help!, every song was different sounding. It kept it fresh - Lennon lead singer for one song, McCartney for another, Harrison on occasion. From the super heavy "Helter Skelter" to the mellow "Blackbird". Just an amazing range of tastes and types of music. And you can hear the happiness and love in their work.

High five Donnie!!! I totally agree xD
Beatles are awesome. Whoever doesn't think that doesn't understand the true deep meanings of their lyrics.
There is knowledge in this jedi.
