Will there ever be a band bigger than The Beatles?

I personally don't think it can happen. Sure there may be artists that end up selling more records or downloads. But no band will ever have the influence that The Beatles had and still have. No bad will be able to match their innovation.

Disagree. In my opinion, the Beatles are amazing and so responsible for helping to open the door that Elvis kicked open but the Beatles are given far too much credit for influencing rock and roll.

An eight-year career and I think four years of touring make them the greatest band to help open the doors for rock and roll and create hysteria over the new sound and perhaps they that's what the greatest thing about them should be recalled.

Lennon and Harrison were masters of their crafts. Paul is very accomplished and Ringo is still rocking.

Bigger band than the Beatles? Are we talking about the Beatles being relevant throughout the last 65 years?

Yes there are, have been, and possibly will be (definitely are) better bands than the Beatles but they are special.

The Rolling Stones get my vote. I love John Lennon and so many more and the Beatles too.
