They obviously have the talent, and they are prompting the same levels of hysteria we saw when the Beatles were at the height of their fame. I can see Liam becoming the new Paul McCartney and Harry the new Lennon.

    They are better than the Beatles actually


    and I am sure Simon will confirm as much saturday-

    They are completely dreamy/ well fit and when they sing it sounds like there are about twenty singers on stage not just five- something the Beatles never acomplished:cool:

    They are a bit like a Beatles / Rolling Stones hybrid.























    After you have had many very special mushrooms.

    Agreed.

    That's the first thing I thought when General Zod put them together at bootcamp.:)

    Don't be absurd.

    They're talented boys but the Beatles? The biggest top-selling-band of all time?

    No.

    Don't forget the Beatles were considered as a teeny pop band in the beginning. Harry writes a lot of songs, that in time will probably be considered as classic as "Let It Be" and "She Loves You".
    Yeah, yeah, yeah

    They are a manufactured pop band with no demonstrated song-writing skills.

    I'd love if one of the tasks on the X factor was that the contestants had to write their own song...

    Either way One Direction are not the new Beatles going on what we've seen of them so far... but I think you are just windiing people up anyway :eek:

    Don't even like the Beatles but your point fails :yawn:

    You couldn't rule out $imon saying something like that at the weekend. as some of the hype about some distinctly average performances from distinctly average performers has gone into hyperdrive this year.

    I would LOVE Simon and/or Cheryl to take One Direction to the US and tout them as the "new" Beatles. I really, really would. :D

    Op I don't mean to be rude but I don't think any of them has the talent the Beatles had no way whatsoever.;)
