Brace for full impact because Metallica delivers the total package. Who has a more devoted fan base than this heavy/ trash metal band? Without question, the Los Angeles based group embraces financial backers in the form of venture capitalists and groupies. Just like fans, Rock Stars come in all shapes and sizes but the truly great ones are standouts.

How do you explain the band’s longevity? Let’s talk about solvency and liquidity. These music guys have been in business longer than some of America’s biggest corporations. Plus Metallica maximizes its strengths and passes the STRESS test with flying colors.

Metallica appeals to a variety of individuals. However, a hardcore demographic supports the band and makes it money. Are you a diehard fan?

What are your favorite Metallica songs of all time? My top 5 are: 1. Until It Sleeps 2. The Unforgiven 3. One 4. Whiskey In the Jar and 5. Nothing Else Matters. Next question: do you know the lyrics by heart?

James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett had it all figured out in the early 1980s before we were born. Later, Robert Trujillo would join them and make a foursome on par with the Beatles. I believe Metallica is in Beatles territory.

You see they built their reputations brick by brick. The Rock Stars finely downloaded their images one pixel at a time. What is more, they knew when it was time to innovate. Metallica stuck it out together when others would have disbanded. Give extra credit to Hetfield for being a visionary.

Metallica is the purest band in the business. Watching them perform is like seeing Captain America: Civil War again. Every guy is equipped with armor and knows their superpower. That’s why their concerts need the tightest security.

Brace for full impact as Metallica comes on stage.

Bee Gees + The Beach Boys = Too Much Heaven and Good Vibrations

Bee Gees and the Beach Boys songs are timeless pieces. Take for instance these following lyrics:

We’re living in a world of fools

Breaking us down

When they all should let us be

We belong to you and me

Ain’t that the truth?! We spot fools everyday.

How about this?

The Midwest farmer’s daughters really make you feel alright

And the Northern girls with the way they kiss

They keep their boyfriends warm at night…

I wish they all could be California girls

What’s better than receiving California love?

Between the Beach Boys and Bee Gees you can’t go wrong. I listen to the bands to calm my nerves. Put on Surfin USA and that will do the trick. After listening to the record all you can think about is beach balls and Pina Coladas.

It’s a fun way to relax. Try playing Stayin Alive when you’re feeling in a bad mood. It works. I feel like the world needs good music.

Nowadays, they don’t make hits like they did in the past. That’s why we gotta do a Throwback Thursday (TBT) on Wednesday. No one sings like Barry Gibb.

Listen to Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb’s Guilty. “Little by little we meet in the middle. There’s a danger in the dark. You gotta be mine.” There’s no doubt that is a top 10 duet of all time.

Plus the Beach Boys are a top 5 band. Their music is still heard all over the globe. Yes, Elvis was a legend but he was a 1 man show. Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Bruce Johnston, Al Jardine, and David Marks made their mark on American music history.

Finally, the Beatles weren’t the only great band from the United Kingdom. How about the band of brothers? 3 brothers named Barry, Robin, and Maurice forever changed the sound of music, especially in England.

You combine the 2 bands and you get U.S. and U.K. Ambassadors. Bee Gees + The Beach Boys= Too Much Heaven and Good Vibrations.

The Beatles created seismic waves while on their world tours. No other group has wielded as much influence in music as these 4 individuals from Liverpool, England. George Harrison’s guitar and Ringo Starr’s drums could fetch millions of dollars on Amazon. John Lennon’s lyrics actually hypnotize you. And Sir Paul McCartney’s Grammys were designed to serve a purpose.

Fans went wild during the Beatles performances. Laryngitis was a common ailment at concerts since girls literally screamed at the top of their lungs. Plus security was super tight because the Beatles maintained a high profile.

Moreover, the Fab Four’s effect on entertainment is still felt. The rock stars rocked the industry- taking all its marbles. Do you know how extremely difficult it would be to duplicate their success right now?

There are more than just a few chapters dedicated to the Beatles in the book of pop culture. Paul McCartney and John Lennon have a couple chapters written exclusively for them. You see music has always been and will forever be a major component of world history. From Mozart and Beethoven to the Beatles and beyond, organized sounds intrigue us.

Jimi Hendrix loved the Beatles. He covered Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band soon after the album debuted. All the legends recognized the English band’s greatness and fandom.

The band of brothers have sold over 65 million albums. It seems every song they created was a hit. My favorite ones are Hey Jude, All You Need Is Love, Revolution, Let It Be, and Come Together. Astonishingly, we can connect through their music. Tell me your favorites.

The Stage Is Set

It takes a unique person to be a celebrity. Being famous takes a toll on your emotions. Still, some people are destined for fame and fortune. The Beatles were undeniable.

And so, the stage is set. Shout out to Paul, John, George, and Ringo. Or you could scream.
