The Beatles were popular 50-60 years ago.
Even if they listened to it when they were 10, they are about to retire in a couple of years.
Nothing middle aged about it.

40s if you’re in the US, that is quite literally the midpoint of the average human lifespan here

Mid 40’s guy here - the last Beatles album was released 9 years before I was born and their last concert was 10 years before I was born. I agree that popular bands don’t stop having fans the moment they break up but there’s 20 years between when they broke up and when my peers started to have their own mususical preferences.

But that’s far from retirement…?

The Beatles have been one of the most popular bands in the world consistently every year from the 60s right up until today lol how do so many people think everyone immediately stops listening to any band the second they break up lol
