What are the girls screaming for? It must have been the socially expected thing to do. It's like the Beatles mania clips with girls screaming until they pass out. There's some strange psychology at work.
Did the Beatles write "There's a Place" in response to this, or was it prior or coincidental? It's said to have been written three months prior. This is a great song by Brian Wilson. Nevertheless, before long, what was going on in teens rooms was listening to the Beatles, and what was going on here, musically, got placed into the background. Some of the Beatles' music has a tinge of mockery of American music, while others are a form of flattery or mimicry. Beach Boys are pure original.
@littlewingg Old people disagreeing with a music genre, Rap in this case.... is RACISM... IS IT REALLY? HAHAH OK MATE.... I'm sure Eminem is PISSED right now. Turn your computer off and quiet yourself.
Does anyone ales notice hoee how Brian is always looking around at everyone else, checking that they are in tune and doing the harmonies right? Love it.
@TheFestivelights LOL !..yes..i also noticed how he had a teeny tiny slip on the bass in the intro, where the first note he played after the guitar intro was the wrong one..but after everything he's accomplished, i think he's allowed to make as many teeny tiny mistakes as he wants ! ..lol !
I'm now old. The greatest consolation is that I got to experience the sixties. I struggle with comparing a generation with another. Does the mind play tricks? Am I just biased ? God, I miss this type of quality. There was such an abundance of it. My question is- Are we devolving?
@uleugdl i would have to agree..musically, spiritually, and humanly devolving..keep those memories brother, they come in handy when the world is shitting all over you ! i'm a child of the late 70's and early 80's, so i caught the final blow of good music, and know exactly what you mean !
@ftjax i think i'd have to kill you if you ever sell it...LOL !..just kidding brother ! ..but seriously, never, ever sell that bass guitar..it's one of a handful of sought after collectors fender basses out there !
@blica1 talk about taking a long mulled over period of time to consider selling it...(for 5 years I've been tempted to "e-bay" it away), but, I know that like the "golden goose" I've made enough money from it to send me through college & to play part time too. It's literally lasted me for 47 yrs. Many keyboards have come & gone but not that bass guitar. I purchased it in Sumter,SC in Aug. 1964 to travel from Columbia,SC to Syracuse, NY to play at "The Brown Jug" club. From there,SC,NC, Ga.
@ftjax cool..i'm a drummer by trade, and i made the stupid mistake of selling my 1971 Ludwig Black Oyster Pearl 5 piece drum kit (Same as Ringo, only a 5 pc.!) back in '98, and have regretted it ever since..saw one on ebay go for $1750 !. and i still weep for it on occasion ..LOL !
One of Brian's stand-out earliest 'personal statement ' type of creations. A sure-fire masterpiece. His angelic falsetto is featured to perfection in this song. God the man is a unique & masterful musical talent (right, Mike Love !!).
Firstly I didn't like this song but after 100 odd listenings it started growing on me. And now I put In My Room at the top of the BBs' songs' league. Specially middle-8 is very touching and has the most stunning harmonies by the band. Or to go further - by every band in the world.
Great band, song and performance; I should rent the DVD again. And it's fine for the girls to scream; it's just hormones ! It's a unique time for them......Regards.
"The Beach Boys" had the best harmony of any group in rock. Brian Wilson was a genius. The rest of the Wilsons were good too. Especially Carl. Mike Love complemented the band greatly,but mistreated Brian in later years. Brian was the leader and arranger. Great band. Reminds of an endless summer.
This song, is of course awesome. I think the genius of this song is how Brian made what I think would normaly be the harmony part of the song, the melody(at least to my ear), I hope that makes sense.
Remember hearing this the first time on one of the first albums I bought in 1966, I was so moved by it's beautiful melancholic melody with perfect harmomies.Still send shivvers down my spine, the Boys at their absolute best, the Sounds Of The Sixties !.
@iamkuljuarenot I never said he was, ASSCLOWN. I was talking about the singing because they are ALL screwing up vocal notes. ESPECIALLY that bird brain Mike Love. I wasn't contradicting your comment. You need to take a valium or something. Calm the fuck down.
@romeokid69 i wasnt talking about the vocals at all dipshit go back and read the goddamn thing, they fuck up on the guitar, period. And that bird brain mike love brings together all the vocals, are you fucking retarted? Your the one getting all bent out of shape because they obviously fuck up on a couple guitar notes and i pointed it out i dont care but its just wierd. so if you take the (beach boys minus mike love's) dick out of your mouth for one second maybe you can see what i'm saying
@iamkuljuarenot mike love is the biggest fucking dusche in the world. He was the one who was so against all of brians amazing ideas. If he had it his way, pet sounds would have never happened and what kind of world would it be. You are the one who needs to remove the dick from your mouth dude, i really cant understand what your saying and just between the two of us, it kinda makes you look gay.
@benfan15009 be that as it may, the beach boys vocal harmonies wouldn't be the same without mike love, and if pet sounds didn't happen, it would still be the same world, there wouldn't be a cosmic shift

@iamkuljuarenot First off, think of the sound equipment's quality back then. It sucked, so it's a miracle the harmonies and playing are as good as they are. Secondly, if you think you can do better with just mics and instruments and no help from today's technology, then go ahead and post your version of the song here. I guarantee you dont have what it takes so maybe you should THINK before you post stuff like this. I am an accomplished musician and I myself find it near impossible to do justice.
@iamkuljuarenot Actually, as a musician, I played on albums that ARE available to purchase. They are not my albums. I am a session musician. And I NEVER said the guitars were not playing wrong notes. I did misunderstand your original comment and for that, I DO apologize, but the music, AS WELL as the vocals are all wrong in this version. The bass, the guitars and the vocals have bum notes all over this version. You CAN'T deny that.
