The Beatles Rock Band Edition was released last week introducing their legendary music to a new generation. Personally I am amazed at how well the video game has translated into music videos. For example, the video for “Revolution” is currently getting a bunch of play on VH1.

What do you think of the Beatles going mainstream again? For that matter, have they ever fallen from grace?
