Who is the crappest Beatle

grecian · 27-10-2012, 01:05 PM

It's the question, literally two of us have been asking, the Beatles were quite good with that entire revolutionising music and society thing, and yet we all secretly hate them, because we're all a bit insignificant compared to them, yet at times they were crap, so let's vote:

Lennon, ****ing hippy, Imagine possibly the most over-rated song of all time, up there with significance with "I want to teach the world to sing"

Mccartney, Wings FFS, irritating wives FFS, you can't sing anymore stop ruining all ceremonies

Harrison, **** me what a cheery bloke, Being miserable, writing terribly depressing tunes, is all very well if your not in the best band ever entering the sixties, cheer up man.

Strakey, has there ever been a least talented artist become so famous, luckiest man alive.

Ringo has to be the best, seems to have a great self-depricating sense of humour.

McCartney annoys me the most. At least Lennon had the decency to have a proper memorable death in the manner fitting of a rock'n'roll star, McCartney has hung around like a lazy bat.

Now see, the title of the thread is "crappest Beatle" (spoiler alert: it's Ringo) but the poll says "biggest idjit", which is rather more open to debate.

I'd say, on balance, dumping the fragrant Jane Asher and her world-class cake-making abilities for a plain, tone-deaf vegetarian and then marrying a one-legged prostitute probably puts Macca in the frame for the latter title.

Yep, it was a mistake, I apologise, just ignore the idjit thing, we must concentrate on crapness, which is definitely Harrison BTW. Oh I must admit I do like some of Linda's recipes in Sainsbury's.

Definitely not George Harrison, due to him sponsoring all those Monty Python films.

Spikey · 27-10-2012, 07:46 PM

lennon loses as a result of his fans

Teja. · 27-10-2012, 10:33 PM

Lennon clearly has the worst ****ing fans and I also want to tactically vote for him to assert Macca superiority but clearly Ringo.

**** it, I'm voting for Lennon anyway.

Dunno about the negativity aspects, but I reckon Harrison was the best songwriter, Lennon had the chutzpah and the soul, McCartney was a great backing vocalist and tune-smith and Ringo the best head swing (while playing) of any drummer.

GIMH · 28-10-2012, 04:09 AM

Harrison the best songwriter? I don't think even his mum would agree with you on that

And I ****ing love George. Blasted All Things Must Pass on the way to and from work on Friday
