The Beatles hugely shifted the goalposts at the time, there was no popular music on the radio like what they offered - but specifically what they eventually made popular was a huge shift in popular culture and they largely spearheaded it.

You've listened to their whole discography? But you only listed Hey Jude and Come Together. Not stuff like Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, Tax Man, I mean the list goes on for tracks that pioneered multi tracking and various other recording techniques on top of making psychedelic music mainstream in a time where very few popular bands actually did much to express themselves or did anything out of the ordinary.

TLDR; they did drugs before it was cool. And they did them so hard it stopped being cool.

Which is fuckin rad πŸ€―πŸ¦΅πŸ’―πŸ—Ώ

They released quite a lot of music. And did HELLA drugs.

I'd like to see you produce nothing but bangers with the resources they had available nonetheless too. Music is subjective, to some people "Good morning, good morning" is their jaaaam

Just because it's not yours doesn't really mean it's objectively bad or not good
