but think about this. they got better precisely bc their songs had real girl names from 1966 to the end.
its more connecting, intimate, real if you hear sexy sadie or michelle than if you just hear a random, unspecified girl. this is why their later songs are better than their early songs. when they just say girl it doesn't familiarize you, it could be any girl and any artist saying that, so it doesnt seperate the beatles from any band and its not specific enough to really touch you.

No they did great songs pre-Rubber Soul, that era came with Yesterday, Please Please Me, If I Fell, I Saw Her Standing There, A Hard Day's Night, Ticket to Ride, I Want to Hold Your Hand and Help, just to name a few.

the problem main problem i have with their pre rubber soul songs so help and before is the songs are simply structured now i know this is their best attribute the simple song structures and harmony structures but the songs so basic to their detriment which leads to them being kind of bland, kind of boring. and also thy are too simliar to each other.
if you listen to i wanna hold your hand please please me love me do they all sound so similar to the point where they are boring to listen to together.
now i didnt notice this as a kid but i do now now that i have a much greater knowledge of music after listenning to a lot more music than when i was 10.

I take it you haven’t listened to much of their music. Songs like “Things We Said Today” is written in Phrygian mode and features jazz and classical chords.
“I’ve Just Seen a Face” is one of their most recognizable and catchy songs, same with “You’ve Got to Hide Your Love away.”
“Tell Me What You See”
“The Night Before”
“Help” was the first original rock song that wasn’t about love or protest. -

i dont even need to justify my knowledge of the beatles music bc ive listened to a lot of their music.
um no, i'v just seen a face is not recognizble to most people, or the general average person.
this is i'm sure the main problem the cool people for instance people who grew up on rush or pink floyd would say is lacking and bad about the beatles is their early stuff, that it is too basic and boring.

“I’ve Just Seen a Face” is one of their most famous songs that everyone loves, are you on crack? It’s been covered numerous times, has sold thousands of copies and hit the charts as recently as 2014.
The members of Rush and Pink Floyd would probably call you an idiot for saying that, considering they’re huge Beatles fans -

I'm 17 and have had access to the Beatles full discography having bought it on iTunes for a while now and was just wondering if you guys think that there albums pre Rubber Souls are disappointing? I just find that I can't relate to their earlier works at all.
No.
