Beatles Still More Popular Than Jesus
John Lennon made a strong statement in March of 1966 that the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus". Lennon and the Beatles took a lot of heat for this comment, as Christians started coming out from all regions, protesting the Beatles by burning their albums, posters and other mementos.But, now that its over 40 years later, I thought I would do an online investigation to see how many people were searching for the Beatles and Jesus in cyberspace. According to Wordtracker keyword service that tracks the words that people are searching for on the major search engines, 29,000 searches per day are for the Beatles.
Also, according to Wordtracker, Jesus pulls in about 7,500 searches per day. God comes in at about 3,000 searches on a daily basis.
What does this prove? Nothing in the larger scheme of things. This only goes to show that online, people are really into their music and the Beatles, who took a lot of heat back then, are still hot now at least in the world of the Internet.
