minus-squareDaMonsterKnees@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up70·2 months agoKinda a double dose of dumb there. The Beatles were prolific af, AND 1 in 4 songs were top 10. They could easily spawn a dozen memorable bands with all their music. But sure, lol.
minus-squareinlandempire@jlai.lulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up42·2 months agoYeah I went to Wikipedia to check the numbers : The group’s “main catalogue”—songs released between 1962 and 1970—consists of 213 songs So that’s like 50+ songs that were “hits”, wake me up when Gearbox releases 200+ games and 50 of those are nominated for at least one awards
