Beatles vs. Stones Part 2

The fans of the Beatles were of the wider age range.  They tended to have the younger and the older audiences.  They still had the vote of hundreds of thousands of female fans, partially because they were the cute boys.  The Stones tended to have the older, young-adult audience.  Since their music and appearance were greatly influenced by heavy rock and roll, sex and drugs, they were limited to the amount they would have.  They were well-liked for being the dangerous boys.  They both had their own audience range and were both widely known.  This made them bigger competitions to each other, but from a point of view.  They had different styles of music, which made them have different types of fans.  Every girl wanted to be with the Beatles and the Stones, and every boy would want to be them.
            In conclusion, it is a difficult choice to pick which is the better band because of how totally different they are.  You would never guess that the Beatles and the Stones were in a direct competition, because they weren’t.  They were in an indirect competition. They never would say that they were better than the other, even though they were itching to, they didn’t.  It was all about the music and popularity back then, and still is today.  The feud between the Beatles fans and the Stones fans would probably never end.  They were both very talented bands that changed music.  But the overall vote would have to go the Beatles.  They made it as far as the eye can see, especially coming from where they were.  The Stones would have to come in second on this one.  Even though they are still around today, they made less of an impact than the Beatles did, even when the Beatles were around for about eight years, the Stones were around for over forty. But it would never really matter, some people don’t care, some people do.  The Beatles and the Stones will always stay in the music history, long after they are gone, which is a good-enough way to have it.
