The Beatles are way over rated. I'm a musician and i can listen to any of their songs without really raising an eyebrow. They were good musicians but i don't like what they did with it. The Stones were a good band, they actually knew what rock n roll was, they had attitude as well.I suppose the 2 bands are actually 2 completely different types of music and so musically hard to compare. And to the person who said the liked Imagine........that was a John Lennon song...not the Beatles.

I judge them by their albums, and I only have few albums by both bands. I'd rather listen to Exile On Main Street than Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and I'd rather listen to Sticky Fingers than either of those albums. Possibly, just possibly, Abbey Road is better than all the above... no, I'll commit, I'd say it is, just. The Stones' 'London Years' singles collection is larger and better than the Beatles' '1' though, more comprehensive so I suppose it's not a fair trial. 'At His Satanic Majesty's Request' was awful though, I threw it out the window of the car on the way back from the shop ;)
That's that... so I guess, for me, the Stones just pip the Beatles to the post... Imagewise I prefer them to the Beatles too... the Beatles looked far too much like a student comedy act, the Stones had a greasy beauty about them.

the beatles by far. more creative, better lyric writing, each member had amazing solo acts on their own, they just about created technical studio editing and sound, plus every single album they made was perfect... and their music will outlast any other bands. the rolling stones had some really bad albums.
i love the rolling stones so much though, but the beatles are just better.
the beatles did for music in general, what the rolling stones did for rock n roll.

I'd say the Stones came out of the gate being cooler than the Beatles but then the Beatles got really, REALLY good!

The Beatles taught me to make the music fit the song. The Rolling Stones taught me to rock and roll. I'm taking 'em both.

I was a teenager when these groups became famous, so I'm answering as I would have answered in the 60's, not present day! Definitely the Rolling Stones! Their music was so full of life and energy, sexier than the Beatles (they were 'nice'); They represented teenage rebellion and eveything that was 'cool' (yes, that word was first used in the 60's!). 'Jagger the Swagger' -what an entertainer! Wicked!

The stones are great but I have to go with the beatles. There songs were so different over time and if John wasn't killed we would still be listening to wonderful music from him. Yesterday and Imagine are 2 of the most beautiful songs in the world.
