The Beatles and One Direction

I am absolutely IN LOVE with the Beatles. They've always been my favorite band and they always will be. That's just one of the many truths of life. The sky is blue, brothers are annoying. I love the Beatles. My favorite is George. That being said, I quite like One Direction. 

I know that some people are comparing them. I don't like to compare bands because each band is different. They all have their own thing. One Direction is a boy GROUP. The Beatles are a boy BAND. They aren't comparable. When they play their music, One Direction do not play instruments. The Beatles played instruments while playing. And for any one in my generation who does not know about the Beatles (which is far too many than I'd prefer) One Direction is kind of like their Beatles. I'm not saying that One Direction are the Beatles, but they do have some similarities.
1. They're both British. Yeah I know that Niall is Irish, but it's just one member of the band
2. They both seem to have a very strong hold on teenage girls from their era. 
3. In their time, they're attractive and young.
So I don't have a problem being a One Direction fan. I like their music and I am a teenage girl so it's a pretty good deal. Of course, no one could ever beat the Beatles. The Beatles will always be number one. Always and Forever. Through the Long and Winding Road.
