Why did people burn The Beatles cds?

People started burning Beatles albums because in a press conference/interview with The Beatles, John Lennon apparently said something offensive towards Christianity saying how the Beatles were more well known than Jesus Christ at the time, but people took it the wrong way thinking John was trying to say that they're more popular or more bigger than Jesus. Religion was a big priority back then and still is. John Lennon later apologized about his statement and told them that he wasn't trying to say that they were bigger or greater than Jesus and people finally forgave them. It was a really stupid thing people were burning their albums over back in the 60s. They misunderstood Lennon's statement on Christ.

Why are The Beatles important to music history?

The Beatles are important because they are known as one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Most people today still listen to The Beatles even though the band broke up. The Beatles also took risks on testing rock. Some songs would tell they're opinions on the war, peace, love etc ( an example would be "Revolution") and others would have a nice gentle tune which showed gentleness.

Well, they both are boy bands, but from different eras. The Beatles are from the 1960's and Big Time Rush is a boy band now. The sound is very different as well, since both are from different times. So, really the only things they have in common is that they boy are boy bands and contain 4 members. Also, Big Time Rush covered some Beatles songs.
