The different universes of Taylor Swift and The Beatles

Set aside 10 minutes of your day to listen to this Rick Beato video comparing these two music powerhouses.

He was spurred by this New York Times headline - "How Big Is Taylor Swift?"

Taylor Swift is media made. She's not that great. I wasn't a big Beatles fan either. If I had to a song I liked it would be Day Tripper.

@Gibbon

Understood.
Listen to Beato - he is one smart guy. He explains how he believes her fame is of a different nature to the fame achieved by The Beatles.

Gibbon · 70-79, M

@rinkydinkydoink I did. I've watched a lot of Beato videos.

@Gibbon emphasis on media made.

Discovering knowledgeable people like RB and many others on YouTube makes time go by quickly.

LunarOrbit · 56-60, M

@rinkydinkydoink Yeah. I can browse for hours sometimes. Some can really communicate their knowledge in a captivating and entertaining way. 😌

Taylor doesn't have Sir George Martin producing, etc.?

@ChipmunkErnie

etc?

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

@rinkydinkydoink As in using his extensive musical background and knowledge to make suggestions, arrangements, instrumentation.

Well, the NYT also supported Kamala Harris - I rest my case

@nedkelly

You interrupted a reaction video I was listening to on YouTube - this guy doing the listening never heard of Jerry Lee Lewis. In this particular vid The Killer is playing Chantilly Lace...

I listened to just over 4 minutes - I have a life to live.....

A rich one, too. If you know what the paying public wants, give it to 'em.

Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M

@rinkydinkydoink yes no doubt she is rich but she should pick other things to write her music about. It all sounds the same.

@Moneyonmymind

The first time I heard her sing was yesterday when listening to the above Beato video. You are absolutely right! Beato stripped some of her songs to their essentials - which were repetitive and less than original.
