I don't hate the Beatles, but I do think they're extremely overrated. There's about three Beatles songs I'd choose to listen to.

Sargent pepper's lonely hearts club band is the second worst song to ever get significant airplay, behind I shot the sheriff, and ahead of You're Beautiful by James Blunt. That one I stand firm on.

Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club band is an intro to an album. It isn’t meant to be played as a standalone song. I have never once listened to the intro track and thought, “Ooh, this is fantastic. One of the greats from the Beatles.” It set the stage for the band to throw away the image the world expected of them as the so called “fab 4” and explore sound while pretending to be people they weren’t.

What you have said here is like watching the opening theme to a television show and then throwing your hands up and saying, “that’s it guys! Second worst tv show ever! Just behind this tv show I actually watched, and just ahead another I actually watched.”

If you’d actually like a chance to be critical of an actual piece of music meant to be consumed on its own from Sgt Pepper, check out A Day in the Life and get back with me.

You should write to the many radio stations that play it as a standalone song, in that case.
