[Esquire]The Best Pop Bands of All Time Prove the Universal Power of Music (from The Supremes to BTS)

I'm sorry but this list is TERRIBLE. Where the hell are U2 and Bruce Springsteen??? These are literally the two greatest bands in rock history.

legends with legends. congrats!!

What a great list of prestigious groups and Destiny's Child.

Who can deny at this point that BTS have made it on every level, commercial, artistic, critical?

This. I would never imagine a kpop group would be listed with this legendary groups of all time. As what they deserved

I kept liking and loving the comments. Don’t know what else to say. Just sad for some people who don’t appreciate them now. You guys are missing out a real life legendary group

im positive there will come a time people will realize/accept how incredible bts and their story truly is.

Most people already do. They get quite a lot of respect from music critics.

yes, you're right. this year has been incredible critically

but i was more talking about gp who are too small minded (& anti's in denial)

most of those realise what they have missed when "it's over"

They do, tho its worthwhile to mention that despite this Bangtan still doesnt get the required amount of critic reviews to place on metacritics year end (?) chart

So Spice Girls should be on the list then

Quote from myaza

They are certainly a part of global pop music history by now, one of the most influencial acts of this generation.

definitely.

in future years, when discussing the greatest artists of all time, you will hear: michael, prince, queen, pac, em, taylor, beyoncé, bts, etc.

just truly legendary artists

BTS is pushing and breaking every boundary imaginable. They sit among the greatest

Nice to see them getting some of their flowers now.
