«Breaking News» The Beatles have lost popularity among Republicans for being too liberal

The Beatles, American's favourite band of all time, have lost popularity among Republicans for being too liberal, a new poll reveals. 

A poll found that 86 per cent of adults in the U.S. like the Beatles, while just eight per cent dislike the Fab Four.

But despite the band splitting up almost 50 years ago, their favorability appears to have been affected by the current political climate.

The band's popularity among Republicans has plunged over the decade with that just 40 percent like the Beatles a lot now compared to 50 percent in 2009.

However Democrats favoured the English band with 54 percent liking the Beatles 'a lot' compared to 51 percent in 2009.

Adults were asked a series of questions about rock bands including whether The Beatles appeal more to people with liberal or conservative beliefs.

And one in four adults thought the greatest band of all time was The Beatles, followed closely by the Rolling stones, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and the Eagles, the poll by Monmouth University found.

Renowned Beatles scholar at Monmouth University Ken Womack said: 'The Beatles enjoy remarkable longevity among music lovers of all stripes because of their time-eclipsing compositions and exquisite musicianship.' 

Fab Four's  popularity among Republicans has plunged over the decade with that just 40 percent like the Beatles a lot now compared to 50 percent in 2009

The Beatles are not the only act who has experienced a clear shift by political affiliation.

Kanye West was liked by 32 per cent of Republicans in 2009, but that figure rose to 35 per cent in 2018. 

In 2009, 50 per cent of Democrats said they liked the rapper but this year positive opinions have fallen to just 12 per cent.

Kanye West recently show his support for Donald Trump and claimed to have the same 'dragon energy' as the president.  

Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute said: 'Even popular music cannot escape being touched by the growing political tribalism of our times. 

'Obviously, Kanye has directly inserted himself into this highly charged atmosphere. But even the Beatles' legacy, which still maintains widespread appeal, has been tinged by this partisanship'.

But despite the band splitting up ...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
