Well, it's difficult to explain why different artforms, in general, move us. It's not just music, of course. For others, it may be film, novels, poems, fashion, etc. At the end of day, these artforms are truly unique (and often beautiful) expressions of our creativity and imagination. We're drawn to the greatest artists and creative individuals probably because of 1) admiration and 2) we somehow relate to their works of art.

The Beatles hugely shifted the goalposts at the time, there was no popular music on the radio like what they offered - but specifically what they eventually made popular was a huge shift in popular culture and they largely spearheaded it.

My problem isn't that the Beatles are overrated (they're not). It's just that they get too much credit for inspiring bands after them and too many people act like they're in a league of their own. Other bands clearly would've figured out their sound and played music like artists had been doing for centuries without the Beatles.

For you to offer the opinion that The Beatles are overrated, I'd like to know your opinion on bands that, at the time, were making better, more interesting music at the pace at which they were making it. My personal opinion is that no one other than Brian Wilson rivals The Beatles in that category and even that is pretty subjective

I'm always looking for new stuff, and find it cool when I find something old that is new to me. They aren't my favorite or anything, but it's usually a good listen.

Reply to I miss walking in to a record store and discuss music recommendations with the owner by MaybeTheDoctor
There was a guy in the classical music room in the Tower Records in El Toro, Orange County, SoCal, his name was Charlie, he was a walking Penguin Guide of classical music recordings. It was so great to chat with him about current releases, warhorse recordings, everything. I miss being able to chat with Charlie about the latest offering from Georg Solti.

Maybe ya gotta find his reincarnation. I bet whoever Beethoven becomes again will still have a huge heart for music.

I mean many of the greatest musicians since their time said they were influenced by the Beatles so I value those opinions more than randos on the internet.

I think that, for the time, the Beatles were extremely innovative and different. Controversy aside, when they started doing drugs is when they got kinda groundbreaking. While they’re not as musically complex as some modern Uber-dense Prog metal band, they still deserve to be recognized as giants in musical and artistic history. I am not really a Beatles fan, as there’s only ten or so songs of theirs that I regularly listen to.
To really answer your question I just don’t know, man. It’s like sometimes I think there’s no such thing as “overrated”. Plenty of underrated bands though.

I think I've come across them, but nothing memorable I guess. They do have an album in 91 so I'll have to keep an ear out.

Considering most of their music came out in the 60’s and 70’s I’d say their popularity has outweighed the over rated opinions.

You may want to work on your reading comprehension skills. At no point did OP insinuate that this has only happened to Savage Garden. They simply stated that it happened to them and asked what favorite artists of others have disbanded.

The band is the bands band. Not OPs, or the leads, or mine or yours. That's why the band votes.
That said, the vessel that carries a band is the music and if I was in a band that wanted to kick me out and keep my music, playing it as their own, I would not go softly into the night.
