Well, I just had to go to Parade's website and see how the voting was going on. And, I had to vote for myself. Of course, I picked the Beatles. Being in junior high back when they broke in early 1964, I can tell you the girls went bonkers. They'd even scream just seeing them on TV. And the sound at a Beatles concert would have been many levels higher than an ear should have to deal with.
Of course, many of us guys, observing the girl reaction, went out and started garage bands with the hopes the girls would start screaming for them. Not me, though.
And, they were cute and each girl had her own favorite. Even us guys had favorites. Mine was George. At dances and parties, you'd have a definite in with a girl if the two of you liked the same favorite Beatle. Let's see, there was the Cute Beatle, the Quiet Beatle, the Serious Beatle and the Funny Beatle. Can you name each?
After voting, you can view the voting so far. Big Time Rush must have some serious fans as they had a 22.4% vote. Backstreet Boys were just behind them with 20.02%. The Monkees had 14,59%.
A big surprise was the number-one vote-getter, the Osmonds with 30.04%?? The Beatles lagged way, way behind at 1.85%, but they went beyond the usual Boy Band perameters.
You can vote at www.parade.com/bands.
Regardless, I Wouldn't Vote for the Osmonds, Those Bad Apples. --RoadDog

Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
