Led Zeppelin vs. The Beatles

[Fender731]

Which band would you rather have in RB?

Its really close for me but I have to say Zep.

[TheCrimsonSaint]

Poll thread needs poll.


I go with any Beatles that were more on the Lennon side of the song writing fence.


EDIT: Guess I just beat the poll to the thread.

[Fender731]

Lol sorry computers running slow. :D

[back_blows]

Zeppelin for me. Shouldn't this be in the General or History of Rock forums?

Not really....

[CKarinja]

Led Zep for me.

[afterstasis]

the beatles... i'm not really a huge zeppelin fan.

[Harveydent]

I can't freakin' decide! I'd say Zeppelin would be better for game play because more of their well known songs fit the Rockband format better than the Beatles well known songs.

[BigMonkE]

The Beatles, because I don't like Led Zeppelin.

I am in the same boat. I mean for me it would totally be up to the song choices. But i would say the Zeppelin songs would probably more fun to play.

[JustinTyme]

I enjoy both but I enjoy Beatles much, much more!

[travmeatwad]

The Beatles, because I don't like Led Zeppelin.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.

[FrogKid28]

You've gotta be kidding!
Not even a question.
THE BEATLES!!!!

[HazzyRap]

I'm one of the few people that just plain never cared for The Beatles...At all, really.

So, Zeppelin it is. STAIRWAY! DON'T DENY!

[TheClashTheClashTheClash]

Beatles are overrated

[BevoTheWarrior]

This is a tough, tough call. I love both bands and, honestly, I don't know who I want more.

[cromartie90000]

lol **** you I can't choose between either. Led Zep has IMMIGRANT SONG and Stairway to Heaven, Back Dog, Communication Breakdown, and so many others...

The Beatles have With a Little Help From My Friends, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, I am The walrus, and a ****load of others. Damn.

THE DECISION (can't) BE MADE

[Kirk Lazarus]

Zep for me and it isn't close, and I'm not even a huge fan of theirs. I just think they would be much more fun to play.

[My name is Fez]

In terms of songs for RB?

Led Zep by a landslide.

In terms of general enjoyment?

Led Zep by a very, very tiny fraction.

[Wozamil]

I would think Zep would be more fun to play, but I'll take both.

[GenJonhForreal]

led zeppelin my favorite band, be so much better to play, and led zeppelin more important to rock and roll than beatles

[GenJonhForreal]

also for me personally the beatles were a little bit too much pop for my liking. Zep is my fav because they really rock hard, and in disguise too, sorta

This.

I'd rather take John Lennon solo over the Beatles, too.

[HyeJinx1984]

Led Zeppelin.


The Beatles can be great, but essentially a glorified boy band. Zeppelin is the heart of Rock.

[BhindBluEyes430]

Neither The Who Win

[m00p]

Beatles > Zeppelin..



All day.

[Rockbandfan23467]

led zeppelin my favorite band, be so much better to play, and led zeppelin more important to rock and roll than beatles

*Shoots this guy*

[Julio_Strikes_Back]

Neither The Who Win

Of course. :rolleyes:

I would like Squeeze Box and I Can See For Miles though...

[John_S]

Led Zeppelin, because I don't like the Beatles stuff after Lennon became a hippie, and I like Zeppelin's worst stuff better than The Beatles best stuff. (I Love Zeppelin, and there is no bad Zeppelin, imo)

[DarthAthema]

This is not really an argument over who's the better band. It's about would work best in the game. There is a lot of great music that wouldn't really be fun in Rock Band, and a lot of bad music that's actually quite fun in the game.

I'd say overall Led Zeppelin would be more fun. All the musicians in that band were insanely talented, and none of the parts would be boring. Screaming along with Robert Plant would be a fun challenge too.
The Beatles have some great stuff, but a lot of their later songs (the ones that are the most interesting) have too much experimental noise going on to really translate into Rock Band. Helter Skelter would probably work pretty well, as would several others, but it would be a lot harder to choose the right songs for the game.

[instantdeath999]

Although I prefer the Beatles, Led Zeppelin would be much more fun, because they translate to the game better.


Beatles are overrated

Explanations are nice.


also for me personally the beatles were a little bit too much pop for my liking.

They really aren't that pop later on in their career.


Neither The Who Win

Well, the Who could very well be my favorite band...

[kingtonyx]

The Beatles tracks would all be tiered similar to the upcoming Nine In The Afternoon

Zeppelin would be all top tier stuff

personally I voted for Zeppelin

[antill_94]

Zeppelin... I would love to sing Immigrant Song and play the Stairway solo.

[Thebeatlesfan912]

Personally I think Zepplin is ovverated

[sitbooboosit]

Zeppelin... Although there are many bands I'd rather see than either of these.

[MissMoongoddess]

This is an impossible choice for me to make. I'm greedy and want them both :p

[TakeABow]

Beatles, duh.

[Logan812]

zeppelin of course!
