Hmmm... Blackbird is better than their average, but it's not quite good.
The problem with the Beatles is that their beats suck ass. Their songs feel lethargic, meandering, aimless, and depressing because they have terrible beats. Blackbird actually has a beat, which is more than I can say for most of their music. But it doesn't have a good beat.
That’s a reasonable opinion, and I honestly don’t know how to determine why I like the songs I like, nor do I feel qualified to identify a good beat (I was in the percussion section of my middle school band class for three years, but I’m a special case of nonmusicality, and nothing sank in), but there are a couple of Beatles songs with strong beats that occur to me. Maybe Love to You or Eight Days a Week, though the former is a more driving beat, imo.
Definitely don’t feel obligated to listen to music you don’t like, though please. I’m not a huge fan of the Beatles, I just grew up on them and find many of their songs enjoyable (if you ask me, Octopus Garden should be erased from our collective memory, though).
I was one of those kids who didn't play an instrument (other than piano lessons I hated), but absolutely knew what instrument I'd play if I was in a band. And it was the drums. Well, a couple months ago I got some drums of My very own and started learning. And a few weeks ago I played My first open mic and rocked the whole house. And a friend was talking about it days later. All I played was a beginner rock beat and fill, but I guess I've got a lot of rock.
And I don't think the Beatles have any rock.
