Way to not actually read the post. That proved what I said. And frankly Teen Angle, for all it’s horrid crap, is no worse than any of the Beatles love songs. It’s all the same junk.
Did you write in invisible ink so that I didn’t see something?
The Beatles and Dylan completely revolutionized popular music. No one who appreciates music can deny this and expect any credibility.
After Revolver the Beatles were wildly inventive and wrote dozens of great songs. Any one who writes a COUPLE of great songs is worthy of not. But when they just flow out our their pens with more great ones than poor ones the writers are in a select group of Immortals.
Teen Angel, Chapel of Love, etc. are not bad music they are just not Rock and Roll. There is a place for pleasantries but they were killing R&R. Elvis couldn’t hold back the tide by himself. The Beatles took Rock and Roll beyond itself and it is no accident that major symphony orchestras play their works even now.
Which reminds me of another of my overrated bands “The Moody Blues”.
I, for one, happen to like "Teen Angel."
Have a listen:
