FMP-Case studies of Musical ensembles (Beatles vs One Direction)


One Direction vs the Beatles:-

"Harry Styles might have claimed that One Direction are " even bigger" than The Beatles,but Paul McCartney vehemently disagrees that any modern band will ever take his band's crown.The British singer and former Beatle, 73,believes the "Yellow Submarine" gang rose to global fame because they wrote their own music."

The Beatles and One direction:-

When Beatles first arrived in America,it was similar to when One Direction arrived in America. They were welcomed by Screaming girls who had already knew who they were. The personalities of the Beatles and One Direction are quite similar. When The Beatles were young, like One Direction,something audiences loved about them was their fun and energetic performances. One Direction keeps the audience intrigued by not only their popular hit songs,but also their upbeat  and funny selves. The personalities of the members of The Beatles and One direction are very comparable. The outfits of both bands all correlate. The boy band look is always the same;the color schemes of the boys all match. The look is a big part of the band especially for One Direction because they are more modern and today the look is everything. The bands perform in a similar way because they both have a ton of fun on stage and are ecstatic about their music and performing it. The bands connect with their audiences and make their fans feel special. A major difference between the bands is that One Direction doesn't play any instruments. The Beatles amazed their audience with their singing and ability to play instruments. One Direction just has One member,Niall Horan,who
plays the guitar in some  songs  and in the Beatles, all members of the band play instruments.

The songs, "Little Things" and "Yesterday", use Ethos similarly because they both cause the audience to feel true emotions. They relate The bands are different because The Beatles wrote the song "Yesterday",and One Direction didn't write the song "Little Things". The band builds a bridge to their audience in a way because the song is relatable to every day situations. During both of these songs,the bands connect with their audience on an emotional level in concerts. During concerts,tears are pouring down girls faces whether it's as they look at five boys of One Direction telling them that they're perfect and beautiful in every way or whether it's The Beatles belting out their inspiring words to their fans. Both bands are highly credible and one is not more convincing than the other. The simplicity of the instrumentation emphasises on the vocals of the boys. The tone of this song are similar because they reach out to the  audience and shows them a deep and sensitive side of The Beatles and a deep and sensitive side of themselves.
