It doesn't really surprise me. The Grammys aren't exactly on the cutting edge. I think the bigger shocker with the Grammys and the best record category is that no rap song has ever won, unless Beat It is thrown in, which I don't think it should be.

Lets not forget the whole jethro tull thing with metallica as well. Besides all these awards are a crock of shit anyway since there are so many of them whats any of it mean aside from higher record sales for the winners.

You say the greatest band of all time, sucks. Then you pick one of the worse songs they ever wrote and call it good...

Their personal abilities were unimportant, together they made the best albums of all time (magical mystery tour, white, Sgt. Peppers), along with tons of single hits on other albums (help, hard days night, a little help from my friends, glass onion, get back, Helter Skelter, I can go on and on with em).

Best rock band ever.

I suspect all Yamerhaw has heard of them is I wanna hold your hand, love me do, and other gay shit they wrote before they got into heavy drugs. Which is what most people think of when they hear the name The Beatles. But thats the smallest part of the music they made, and far from the reason they were so great.

Like the pedophile (dont mistake with PDF file) MJ, they changed the face of the genre they chose. There has been no one bigger since.
