If the Beatles started at the same time as Eilish then do you think they'd be remembered 5 years later? 50 years?

- freejazz 3y agoHow could that make sense in the context of popular music post-the-beatles? would someone else have broke the boundaries they did?
- paulryanrogers 3y agoMy point is there was less competition and more space to innovate. At this point I suspect nostalgia and interia are the biggest factors in their lingering popularity.
- freejazz 3y agoThat's an anachronistic analysis. You want to say it was "easier" to innovate, sure. but to analyze the beatles without regard to their innovations is just prima facie wrong.
