    Yeah, really no opinion on either.  Never really been into either of them.  No disrespect, I know the music, just never been "gaga" over either.
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    GaGa?  Now I can get into some Lady GaGa!

    Really only recently have dug into the Beatles (thanks to my wife). She has had me buy the Beatles vinyl she wanted and I have a new appreciation for them. Fantastic song writers and their influence cannot be denied. 

    As for Elvis.. well the creep factor of dating a 14 year old is just too much for me. Even when I heard that as a teenager in the early 90s it tripped me out.  He “had no problem with it because he could mold her into the ideal woman”. YUCK

    Are some missing the Pulp Fiction reference to the poll question?  You’ll have to take up the poll answer options with Quentin Tarantino.

    Beatles fans can like Elvis and Elvis fans can like Beatles but not equally ... yadda yadda yadda. 
    If I like the Beatles it tells me what kind of person I am.... one that abhors pedophilia.

    If I were to add another answer, it would have been A Five-Dollar Shake or a Royale with Cheese.

    There needs to be a 3rd option- Just Pearl Jam who are so much better!

    I never knew that about Elvis.  Not a fan of his and could likely only name 3 or 4 songs...What the Beatles did in such a short time is incredible.  I've had the pleasure of seeing both Paul and Ringo.  Just too bad, some nut job cost us the chance of seeing the Beatles possibly re-united...

    Yes, Ringo and his stellar voice 🙄

    I meant compared to those who primarily sang. And Elvis, of course.

    We can love Lennon’s music, as long as we don’t defend his abuse

    Does anyone know if this is true??? This is the 1st I've heard of this?

    Apparently he admitted to it during an interview.

    I know people aren't perfect, but it sucks to find out shit about someone you admire for various reasons.

    I think to find any significant number of Elvis people, nowadays you'd have to be polling folks in their 70's and above, aside from Wob, we don't have many of them here.
    Hahaha.  Edit --- @Wobbie likes Goo Goo Dolls better than Elvis.
    And Kenny Wayne Shepherd
