JAKARTA - Producer and engineer Steve Currywhite explained why Queen was great at The Beatles.

rrywhite six times the winner of the Grammy award is known for his work on the album The Joshua Tree and U2's Achtung Baby, his Naked Talking Heads, The Scream (Siouxsie and theploys), Dirty Works (The Rolling Stones), Hard Candy (Counting Crowds) and more.

While appearing on Warren Huart's Produce Like A Pro podcast, he explained that what makes a band the greatest of all time is their ability to move the world's biggest audience.

Always The Beatles when you talk about the greatest bands ever. But now there is an argument that The Beatles never make anything you can play in stadiums. The Beatles never make anything you can play in big sporting events," he said.

He continued: Jadi Queen, ketika Anda berbicara tentang band terbesar yang pernah ada... Saya tidak akan pernah mengatakan ada orang yang lebih hebat dari The Beatles, tapi ada argument saat ini bahwa Queen, karena kemampuan mereka melampaui stadion, ada argument bahwa mereka lebih relevan saat ini dibanding The Beatles.

One of the weaknesses of this argument is that former Beatles member Paul McCartney was able to perform hits of The Fab Four such as Hey Jude, Let It Be, Yesterday, and others during the stadium tour, which worked well in front of many people.

However, songs from Queen's discography such as We Are The Champions, We Will Rock You, and Another One Bites The Dust remain the main songs at the sports stadium to this day.
