What are your thoughts, as a Beatles fan, on One Direction?

Both are great. But what's the point of hating them? They're a lot like us inside. Just because they're hot doesn't mean Directionators have to invade. The thing with One Direction is that many loathe them. I just want еще people to accept both bands as they are and for once not compare them, because I don't see how they're all that alike. Harry's got a fetish in pussy, for one thing, and I don't remember any Beatles singer being as loud as Louis.

I can't say I completely agree with you... I don't think the purpose of this boy band is to become as famous (or еще famous) as/than The Beatles... I think the Музыка industry wants another band like The Backstreet Boys for example... And so far it's working. Personally, I don't like them and I don't think they're very talented, autotune can make miracles if Ты know what I mean... They're overrated because they're a commercial band just like any of those pop artists that all sound alike but that can't sing so no I don't think they have anything to do with The Beatles because even if they were as talented as them, they still aren't at all the same type of band... I'm not hating on 1D btw I'm just giving my opinion...

I think that they're extremely overrated. :P They're not nearly as annoying as Bieber yet.

All I can say is they're better than Justin Bieber.

I think they should stop being compared to the Beatles. They're not like them at all.

They're alright, I guess...

To my opinion, i agreed with you.
Like most people in this club, I dont really like them, but i do got my eye on one of them...
But anyway, what REALLY bugs me is how people compare 1D & the Beatles.
All because they're both from (the best country in the world) England doesnt mean Ты have to compare them.
& to be frank, the Beatles aint a boy band.
Boy bands are like dancing and Пение to cheesy pop Музыка that they proberly didnt write.
But the Beatles, they PLAY instruments. They WRITE their own songs & none of their songs sound similar unlike 1D's (eg. listen 2 What Makes Ты Beautiful & One Thing & you'll see what I mean).
Another thing, boy bands HAVE 2 be able to dance, but the Beatle cant dance worth shit (not trying to be rude, bit its sorta true...)
& the only kind of boy bands that can get away this kind of stuff are ones from Korea. (seriously, they're awesome!)

Ты despise them yet Ты mention their dreaded name in an otherwise paradise place for Фаны of the greatest band that ever lived.

Well I Любовь there songs very much

Ты are exactly right

i thought the same thing. there's just something about them that i hate, but im not sure wat it is. i think one direction Фаны feel the same way about us.

I Любовь One Direction and The Beatles both Bands Are Very successful
and have Great Music

Another boyband...

I'm a die-hard Фан of The Beatles. Die hard. I have been for my whole life, and I will continue to be. However, I'm starting to like One Direction. They're cute, funny, and have pretty nice voices! The Beatles were Популярное during their time because their Музыка genre was what was in. One Direction is Популярное now, because their Музыка genre is what is in. I used to hate their guts. I used to think that they're just another stupid boy band trying to copy The Beatles. But honestly, isn't everybody trying to copy The Beatles? Ты have to think of back in 1964. In 1964, all of the people who aren't very fond of One Direction probably wouldn't like The Beatles! You'd think that "Oh, they're just another boy band trying to copy Elvis", which they were, but how many people are bothered by that? Ты know what I'm saying? I realize that I'm not making much sense today, but I'm trying my best. I think that Paul McCartney and Louis Tomlinson can get along! And would, if they knew each other.

Well, personally, I'm Directioneutral (some goofy word me&my Друзья use to describe not loving или hating one direction). Anyway, they should NOT be compared to the Beatles. This is because, let's put it straight here, One Direction are NOT THE BEATLES and NEVER WILL BE. People need to stop comparing them. And on вверх of that, it made me mad beyond belief that they did Abbey Road. Not to mention, they didn't do it right!! Either the секунда last guy или the third guy (it would be the same with 4, but different with 5) has to be barefoot for it to be done right.

So people need to QUIT COMPARING THE TWO and just sit back and listen to something calm like Эй, Jude, which is exactly what I'm gonna do.

Эй, Jude, don't make it bad...

I hate them now. I admit that I used to be a Фан but that lasted about 4 months so.. yeah. But to me NOW they suck.
No offense to 1d fans

I can't say, exactly, what I would think of One Direction, because I've only ever heard one of their songs. But I can say this. NO BAND should EVER try and take over the Beatles' вверх position, and NOBODY should ever try to compare the Beatles to anyone else. If One Direction thinks they can be the Далее Beatles, then I hate them, of course, on principle. But seriously, most of these new pop bands aren't exactly serious competition for the Fab Four. Shouldn't we be еще worried about bands from the seventies, that time when the Beatles had just broken up and every other band was going crazy, screaming and jumping and thinking they could take their вверх spot even though they sounded nothing like the Beatles? But most Beatles Фаны don't seem to have a problem with liking those bands too. I don't get it.

No band now in days will NEVER вверх The Beatles. Expecially, One Direction, the band I NEVER cared for. I Любовь The Beatles. I also Любовь Bee Gees and the rest of the 60's and 70's bands. The oldies will always вверх the Музыка bands today. I'm not a Фан of One Direction, Justin Bieber или any of today's bands. I'm a huge Фан of the oldies and The Beatles will always be the best and no other band will вверх them.

I'm not a big Фан of them. Some of their songs are all right, but I like the Beatles better. There was a video on YouTube called Kids React to The Beatles. One of the kids said, "Everyone is saying that One Direction replaced the Beatles. No, the Beatles are irreplaceable." I said, "Thank you! Somebody gets me!"

Who или what is One Direction?
