No.

Justin Bieber couldn't write something like this:



Or this:

[John Barron]

no because he doesn't write songs, he's just the mascot. the people that write bieber's music though could if they catered to that genre.

early beatles songs were incredibly simplistic and they attracted lots of women. sound familiar?

i mean let's be real, their "artsy" stuff later on is just drug gibberish.

[MDPopescu]

Don't mix up or compare musical genres (sub-genres), styles, insertion in time etc.

It's pointless...

There's only "good" or "bad" music.

[jaded]

That means I dont anything abiut him except that he's the singer of velvet underground. Still, **** you mother****ing Reed!!!!

You cursed him with death by incurable disease and sure enough he died of one...I hope you never get mad at me.

[samouraï]

The Beatles were massively overrated and The Velvet Underground were far better, but I don't think they were 'garbage'. There's been a lot worse.

[BrushMyCage]

i really like the beatles but theyre really an overrated band

[BrushMyCage]

Yea, they are overrated that if I list the artist they influenced wordlwide, I could quickly double my post count to 10,000.

i understand they influenced lots of band/artists...
theyre overrated but it doesnt mean theyre not good
