Question of the Day, November 24, 2010



Earlier this week, we learned that their inclusion in the advertising for Call of Duty: Black Ops gave classic rockers the Rolling Stones a substantial boost in sales [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/105561-Rolling-Stones-Earn-a-Few-Bucks-Off-Black-Ops]. So why not have the classic rock-n-roll question: Which do you pick?

The Kinks, definitely... Beatles and Stones just aren't as good them.

God save the Kinks!

 

[WrongSprite]

OPETH shhhh....

Out of those, I'd probably say the Beatles, never was a Stones fan.

 

[tkioz]

Well obviously like anyone with taste I like both bands, but if I had to pick one or the other, it would be the Stones.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

The Stones, easily between those two.

Of all classic rock bands? That's really tough, I can't choose.

 

[SeanTheSheep]

I like the Stones, but I just like The Beatles more.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

The Kinks. Sounds better than either of those bands.

 

[Kavachi]

Both bands are equally awesome, but I went for the Stones for one reason...

Let me please introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste

I was never a Beatles fan but the past few years I've been highly enjoying remakes of thier music along with a few originals. And I've been listening to them enough to understand how they've become so inspirational to a lot of the bands I do love.

I can get no satisfaction from the Stones.

 

[Verkain]

I like a lot of Beatles songs but I like the Stones more.

 

[Bassman_2]

The Stones were great, but I think the Beatles were greater.

 

[seekeroftruth86]

Got to go with the Beatles. They're just so eclectic and out-there, like musical ubermenschen.

The Stones are a little to "standard rock" for me, if there is such a thing.

 

[Hippobatman]

Eeh, my apologies, but I don't like either of them.

I mean, I do recognize what they've done for music development, but it's just not my taste.

 

[Xaryn Mar]

Other: I like both but The Who are the best from that timeperiod.

 

[EatPieYes]

As it seems to be right within the context of this poll, I say The Who.

Edit: Ninja'd by one minute...

 

[Bloodstain]

I like both equally...meh, I'll just pick the Beatles.

 

[Marter]

I don't listen to either of them enough to make a decision.

I wouldn't even know any of their songs if they were to come on the radio.

 

[ANImaniac89]

The Beatles by far

I can only stand The Stones in very small amounts

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Out of those, the Stones, but I'm not to crazy about them, and I don't care for the Beatles at all, their music just isn't that great in my opinion....
