The Stones are the better "rock" band but the Beatles' music has more staying power, as music, in general, it crosses boundries.

and by the way, the stuff I like by the Beach Boys is some of the most depressing stuff out there, I never was into their surf songs.

Brian Wilson has some lyrics that make Ian Curtis sound like the Happy Mondays.

At least Ian Curtis sounded like a man when he sang. Mr. Wilson sounds like someone cut at least one of his balls off... I'd be a depressed man if I only had one nut too. :ohmy:

this shows your lack of understanding.....Mike Love sang most of the Beach Boys songs, he was not a falsetto.

Brian Wilson wrote all the songs...sometimes with help from people like Tony Asher. Yes i can see why you don't like his voice but he only sang on about 1/3 of their songs....or less.

He readily admits that he's not a goth anyway.

Interesting idea for a thread =)

Didnt want ot make a poll tracy? Makes it easier to keep track =)

If i was forced to pick one or the other, hrmm... pretty much would have to be the Beetles. The stones do rock out pretty hard though. Hard choice.

And unoffically i admit i have both Pet Sounds and the re-built Smile along with a ton of random BB tracks and have been listening to them for a long time. (although not so much in the last few years)

You and BS9 need to start your own thread about the Beach Boys. They're ruining other threads...

I'm going with The Beatles. No other band of their time could write music in so many different styles and make it their own. Plus.....The stones could only wish they had the talent that John Lennon and Paul McCartney had.

Stones, no question. I'm not going to defend my choice with any quasi-scholarly arguments about stylistic value or staying power or even musical talent- I JUST PLAIN LIKE THE FUCKIN' STONES BETTER!!! 'cos they rock harder & sound more down & dirty.

Plus I had to listen to my daddy's Beatles records waaayyy too much as a child. My brother & I knew Sergeant Pepper line for line by the time we were 10.

i like them both equally. i can't really compare them since they are so different to me. i probably know/like more beatles songs but i am not even sure about that? just seems that i have heard more beatles over the years so i think i know more beatles than stones songs.

also i like "newer" beatles over "older" beatles. drugs did wonders for their music style.

      What Are You Thinking? (cont'd)

      By Soulrev · Posted

      Mostly, we're not sure if we're going to keep it and Snowbird to AZ in the Winter and come back to CO for the heat of the summer, but eventually I think we will live in AZ full time. For now the property in CO is always going up in value so the longer we hold onto it, the more it'll be worth, if we ever choose to sell.   For now we have the option to stay at her cousin's and an option to buy a chunk of the 250 acres they bought. Our ranch in CO also needs a new well - a huge investment - so we're trying to decide if we want to fix the well at a cost of 50-100k, or just buy more land from her cousin. Either way will be good, though! Pretty much can't go wrong buying land, these days. Well, depending on the area of course, but out here, land just keeps going up in price, never down , so there's that..   Also it will take years to move our ranch, if we choose to move it all. I figure at least 3 or 4 of the biggest Penske truck loads, and that's conservative and if we broke everything down into pieces and packed the trucks like Tetris 🤣

      I'm thinking I'm going to be moving to AZ, soon! Can't wait! I friggin' love it here! The heat doesn't bother me at all and the best part? NO SNOW!!! (S.N.O.W. - Shit  No One Wants)   Been staying in Bullhead City where the kids and grandkids live. Next, we're going to the wife's cousin's which is a ways North of Kingman, in the middle of nowhere, where we actually plan to move.   I really like Bullhead. It's a nice little town. Not overcrowded like Colorado Springs has become, at all. Very light traffic, reasonable prices on everything, low taxes, etc. The river offers a lot to do, with a lot of beaches and campgrounds all around it.   But yeah even though we've been over 110º-115º F just about every day,  I can handle it!  What I can't handle anymore, is snow and being cold. Just tired of it. Give me the desert over a blizzard any day!
