1963. Beatles "She Loves You" breaks the band stateside. Boys appear on Ed Sullivan. Phenomenon ensues.
1970. Beatles release "Let it Be". Then break up.
In between there are amazing albums, mind altering drugs, advances in technology and production, the Summer of Love, the riots of '68, Woodstock and man lands on the moon.
1999. "...Baby one more time" is released. Britney's schoolgirl midriff is all over MTV. Phenomenon ensues.
2006. Britney's mind breaks up.
In between boy bands come and go, twee comes, then goes, Indie Pop arrives, the White Stripes are the standard bearers for rock, George Bush starts a war and 3000 people die in the World Trade Center Bombings.
It's been 8 years since Brit's debut. Don't try to fuck with the laws of Septenary. You will lose every time.
