  • ahora amo mas esta canción

  • Brian Wilson WAS the Beach Boys, just like George was the beatles

  • @MyFacefaceface

    ? o_O ? that made no sense, George was the Beatles? Neither George Martin nor Harrison WERE the beatles...

  • @MyFacefaceface : You got the first part right anyway. Being half right isn't so bad.

  • @pmoyer50 i suppose you think john was the beatles

  • the big f u to murray

  • Dennis and Carl weren't laughing at Brian coughing were they?

  • @Feedersuper even brian was laughing. plus this song is meant as more or less of a joke. so this wan't meant to be serious anyway.

  • Please post links to any videos with just the 3 Wilson brothers. Thanks

  • Please post the version from Summer Days and Summer Nights. I've just found snippets of that one. For some reason it's hard to find the whole song fr SDASN.

  • Can someone please post this song from Beach Boys Today . Thanks

  • I love this...so funny

  • Woah! It sounds like Brian was channelling Tom Waits when he sang 'they gave me some breakfast' hehehe

  • There's nothing quite like watching the musical magic that only brothers can have between each other, the Bee Gees are another example.

  • This is really messed up.

  • @casestudyification HGow is it messed up? It is almost exactly like the "Summer days" version from 1966, except Brian seems to need a drink of water.

  • @Mozart1220 I guess in terms of that if I would have done this everybody would say "man, that's messed up." But since Brian did it, it's supposed to be awesome. Brian has done some awesome stuff, and this isn't all that awesome. Brian was in bad shape during this period. Glad he got straightened out.

  • @casestudyification H recorded this as a comedy track in '65. This version is almost identical.

  • This was great to see them interact with each other like this. Love seeing Dennis!! This song just cracked me up!!! FUNNY!!! lol!!!

  • Brian Wilson is the coolest guy EVER!

  • Byahhh!

  • Usually when I see videos of musicians, I get annoyed if it just shows their faces-in this case, I could watch Brian Wilson's face all day, his facial expressions are priceless. Even if you didn't know anything about him, you would say, based on his expressions, "man, this is a pretty complex guy, what's going on in his head?"

  • I've been watching this with my mouth hanging open like O.O

  • Brian looks happy, that's enough to me. :3

  • Ha, that was funny. I agree, considering Brian's mental state, just love the fact that this video shows him laughing with his brothers, but agree he looks like a kid when he messed up :-(

  • PURE HUMANITY.

  • Love this video! So funny when Brian coughs! Lol.

    On the other hand you could see how sad Brian is in his eyes. When looks up after he sings badly, he looks like a child when they know they've messed up :(

    Still love Brian though!

  • troppo emozionante questo video!!!!! R.I.P. Dennis and Carl!!!! <3

  • It's so great to see them smiling, and laughing and enjoying one another and loving one another.

  • my birth dad was abusive too but he was caught when i was little he died in 2005 this song reminds me of when i was 15 while in fostercare my foster dad grounds me and threatens to board up my windows if i wouldnt stop looking out the window yelling at me hes like if u dont stop looking out the wondow i'll slap your wondows with dry wall amd u wont have a window anymore i know now he didnt mean it he was just angry

  • haha this is amazing..:)

  • Ummm, Brian has not lost his voice, at least as of the 2004 complete re-recording of SMiLE

  • Comment removed

  • They're sure having a lotta fun here! I cracked when Brian started coughing and improvised words about that until the three laughed about it. They must have really loved each other. This performance is both a crowning moment of heartwarming and funny. Plus, how many performances are there with the Wilson brothers alone, without Al, Mike and Bruce?

    The only sad thing is that by the mid-70's Brian had already lost his voice, but still, this video is as cool as cool can be

    Thumbs ups of course

  • Just three brothers, enjoying life. It's sad they had to be in this state, yes, but that doesn't change the fact that they must've had a lot of fun with this.

  • hahahahaahhah I love it when he coughs and they laugh

  • three geniuses!

  • SO MUCH BEARD! NEVER FORGET! THE BEACH BOYS WERE THE GREATEST FRIENDS THAT BEARDS EVER HAD!

  • hahahahaaaa!, love this

    smells so good

  • Who thinks this video is sad? I found it kinda fun.

  • Does anyone have this whole special on video? 

  • ROFL I write songs like this when I"m bugged too! Terrific job guys.

  • Good for those guys!

  • They gave me SOME BREAD CRUMBS!!!

  • 1976 Dr. Pepper presents ' It's OK; The Beach Boys' NBC TV Special August

  • Does anyone know where this clip is from?

  • I love how he chose to only have Dennis and Carl sing backup on this song, as if it wasn't already obvious what it was about.

  • This is BRILLIANT!!! Carl & Dennis start off singing so seriously, then collapse at Brian's coughing. I laughed at the lyrics, when Brian sings "I wish I could see outside, but he tacked a board to my window" and his brothers sing "Gosh it's dark" Absolutely classic, but more than a tad of truth in it??

  • God! This made me laugh so much!!

  • Fat Brian

  • @gershbec

    So fucking what?

  • @RJW14863 He's not skinny.

  • Happy moment ... Feelgood bros ! ( :

  • I had this dream

    Singing with my brothers...

  • Brilliant,I love Brians face when his brothers are laughing at him coughing.

  • Comment removed

  • Three brothers goofing around. Very funny and touching moment!

  • Why did they grow them beards in the first place? look more like beach bums than beach boys.

  • I like how Brian laughs during the growing a beard line. The bearded look didn't quite suit Brian. But Carl and Dennis had two awesome beards in the 70s.

  • This was part of a 1 hour documentary on NBC, I believe......had some great concert footage. Also the now famous scene with John Belushi and Dan Akroyd posing as police, "arresting" Brian at his home and forcing him to go to the beach and into the ocean to surf - in his bathrobe.

  • Brian is a completely different person when he smiles.

  • it dosen't happen enough.

  • Was there a film made of the good vibrations tour in 76?

  • Ok But What is this From? Some Long Lost Beach Boys Documentary?Must see the whole thing!!!!!!!!!

  • Brian Wilson could be Alec Baldwin's long lost brother.

  • hmmmm he could be alec's dad roflmao

  • Haha true that. They look so similiar.

  • i must have watched this about 100 times. Brian has one cheeky little smile. What a tink.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh no! why does it cut out there? Wanted to hear Dennis speak .... pfff

  • This video isnt sad. Especially in light of the fact that Brian is doing so well today. And fuck anybody who says his brothers were exploiting him. You cant always fix or even understand someone elses problem. What is sad is that Carl and Dennis arent alive.

  • @sateliteoflove202 Well said and I totally concur ... except the profanity.

  • @sateliteoflove202

    Agree 100% with ya

    Dennis and Carl loved Brian unconditionally

    And I love them all! Fantastic band, and Denny was criminally under rated

  • @sateliteoflove202 Right! You're right!

  • Hardly any support from anyone for SMiLE, but they had him doing stuff like this? :/

    I agree with MadMike, he deserved better.

  • No they were just farting around. This song was from 1964 and they got a laugh out of it. Before SmIle

  • Brilliant! Love these guys! It's great when they are laughing together.

  • I agree with others here. This is Sad.

  • You three are true legends...and this one´s funny, too! Musicially speaking, you know what i mean...

  • The brilliant brothers

  • brian looks like he wants to kim himself right there,the only thing really missing is them snorting crazy fucking lines of cocaine off of that piano,because if u think they weren't,your living in a fantasy world,

  • I love those beards Infact I got so Inspired that I´m gonna grow my own now!.

  • 1india64, Stupid comment.

  • I don't find it sad at all. Brian is laughing it up.

  • Comment removed

  • this is such a sad clip.

  • I agree. This is sad. This isn't 3 brothers hanging out having fun as someone suggested. This is a mentally and physically deteriorating Brian Wilson being dragged into the studio because the other members of the band treated him like a cash cow. Including his brothers.

    If his band mates truly cared for him, they wouldn't have signed recording contracts with the stipulation that Brian would have to write and produce 70% of the material. They all knew he needed help. And this was not helping.

  • haha! at 0:20 Dennis says "blew his dad"! Watch the look Carl gives him!

  • @iferraro omg that is too funny!

  • @iferraro

    actually I just watched it again and if you listen closely it's actually carl who says "blew his dad!!"  HAHAH

  • @iferraro Thanks so much for this. Couldn't have heard it myself. This vid is so funny.

  • @iferraro ... haa, he DID, didn't he! lol... wouldn't have noticed that if you hadn't pointed it out... that's awesome.... just regular guys, man... I love it.

  • @iferraro It's actually "blew it bad"

  • hi its from a dvd called good vibrations tour

  • Three brothers chillin and having fun!! Love this clip!!

  • The Wilson brothers, circa '76...

    Very nice to see!

  • i guess Brian's voice has held up relatively well since 76. i actually kinda dig his voice more now than then. sigh. bad stuff must have gone down between 71-76.

  • You mean Brian intentionally destroying his voice with cocaine and smoking large amounts of cigarettes in that time in an effort to make his voice more "masculine"? Yep. It's very, very sad.

  • MoonAharshMistress That is true his dad did hit him hard and he is deaf in one ear.

    His dad was a crazyass! by the grace of God do we still have Brian! He is such a legend! His dad SOLD his songs behind his back! no wonder he locked himself in his room and did booger suger.

  • @Gwenlj But his dad was a genius too, ya know!

  • @itsme111478 I disagree

  • @itsme111478 "I´m a genius too Brian!"

  • why the old man hit his ear.. and made him deaf..bastard

  • Brian was born deaf in that ear.

  • @runnersdialzero33 his dad, murry wilson, was very abusive, and hit brian with a 2x4. that caused him being deaf in his right ear

  • Kinda embarrassing... I mean, this song was funny in '63 - but what the f*** is going on?

  • What a transformation has taken place in Brian - Ironic that the true story behind this song made it necessary.

    God bless Brian Wilson with love and mercy!

  • Just remember in '76/'77 they took this guy who'd been hiding out and smoking, and snorting for pretty much four years straight, and DRAGGED him into the spotlight and put him on the cover of every magazine and every TV show around, and told him "OK, let's act like its 1963!!!!"

  • This is on the DVD "Good Vibrations Tour" and the best piece in it!!! So funny seeing Brian in his training suit with his brothers performing this! Watching Brian acting spontaneusly is such a thrill!

  • This video is a HOOT!!! They must have been high or something - especially Brian. I'm sitting here laughing myself silly! It's great to see them cut up like that about their Dad. I know he was abusive and all, but that's what kids do later on when they're grown up - they can joke about it.

  • It's a good thing that beatings aren't issued in response to "produceing" comments like this.

    Very harsh and heartless.

  • The Wilson brother's dad (murray) was unbelieveably abusive, so this song is pretty mild compared to what Brian could have written about him.

  • Murray was tough on him! Funny to hear this song about him

  • 1:08

    Sad with a side of awesome.

  • what a bizarre song, never realized how funny the lyrics were

  • I think it doesn't blow, neither it sucks.

    I think it's very sad :_(

  • from the time this was originally recorded in the 60's until this point in the 1970's this song took on an entirely different meaning. it went from being humorous to being tragic. it is amazing that brian was still able to express his emotions about his father at all any longer much less still find humor in such tragedy.

  • Wow! This really blows! I mean it sucks.

    How could something suck and blow at the same time? Watch this vid and find out.....

    Such a shame. Just a shodow of the man Brian once was in the 60s.

  • you think it blows? you dont know the beach boys! I understand it perfectly it was brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!

  • steely, this does not blow. this is actually on an album and following the Beach boys and Brian as I have since 1961 and being inspired by his genius ability to create notes that are not even on the piano (as paul Mcartney once said) this a great video and a classic at that. the beginning of drug and alcohol abuse for Brian Wilson and OH by the way he's back better than ever.

  • I love Brian as well. I've seen him live on the Pet sounds tour. I am not a hater, however, I guess I have some repressed anger that he just pretty much ended up doing drugs and hiding in his room except for moments of brilliance when he decided to go down to the studio and do something like "til I die" or "sail on sailor". I'm just pissed off that (you must admit) he is a shadow of the man and talent he once was during let's say Pet Sounds or the recording of SMiLE. He just kinda gave up. :(

  • That's not fair. The guy is mentally ill. He didn't "give up", his illness got the best of him. Faulting someone for collapsing under mental illness is about the same as faulting someone for collapsing under cancer.

  • yes i will agree with you that he is a shadow of what he once was. in the 60s this guy could create music and songs in his sleep. as far as i'm concerned Brian is the Beach Boys and always has been. If you get a chance check out his all i want for christmas cd from i think 2006.

  • hehe neat

    stop the hate ;( be nice 2 each other jK

  • rare beach boys songs on my channel

  • I could listen to this all night. Brian's so funny.

  • Whoa.

  • If you knew about their childhood abuse -- this song is more of three bros having a laugh about it -- which is beautiful in its own way.

  • Wow, this is sad, huh? Brotherly love...and to lose two of them...its great they leave us some of these memories...

  • i am sure few people thought brian would be the survivor.

  • KENVAIL you're so right. And Brian has survived them for so long(may be even longer).

  • Every time I see this video it makes me laugh. :) Nice to see the guys having a brother moment. Can anyone recommend a good Beach Boys book or a book about the Wilson Brothers, I know there's plenty out there, but I thought I'd ask here since I know there's a lot of real fans here. thanks...

  • Heroes and Villains: the true story of the Beach Boys is a really good one.

  • I've heard Catch a Wave is great????

  • Catch a Wave (the book) is fantastic

  • Love the bros talkin' about the abuse and laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If you can't laugh about it, you go insane... Carl seemed to be the only one who came through it "relatively" unscathed.

  • This is so sweet... thanks for posting this

  • Dennis looks like he'd rather be elsewhere, doesn't he?

  • No i wont say that. :)

  • Please play the rest of this when Dennis starts talking!!!

  • I think this was a serious/possibly true song -- I think they meant what they were singing about. Did you see the video where, I believe, the father yelled at Carl for goofing off or something like that -- it was awful. My opinion only.

  • This is the goofiest GREAT thing I've ever seen...LoL.. the Beach Boys are awesome.. buts there's something special about watching just the Wilson Bros. do this.. you can see the childish bond between them...its so sweet.

  • i'm pretty sure that at 19 seconds in the "boy" in the middle sings "blew his daaad!" and then laughs.

    The coughing also rules.

  • That is Carl Wilson the best voice Wilson in the middle.

  • Love those Wilson bros!

  • Awesome...3 boys...I have 3 sons...maybe they will write one about their 'momma' some day!

    Payback for my calling them Huey, Dooey and Louie! or Alvin, Simon and Theodore or Moe, Larry and Curley...

    If they hear this, they surely will! Payback!

  • THE BEST ROCK AND ROLL SONG EVER!!!

  • saaaad!

  • Brian Wilson Is Cool

  • great to see the brothers. i miss mike's low part; that made it extra hysterical on the lp. brian's look at the camera people after he starts hacking-- "should we start again from the top?"-- is funny, as is his cracking up when they get to the "beard" part.

  • hav can you miss that joke

  • Is this song on an album/cd? If so please let me know which one -- I want to hear all of the words.

  • it's on the today/summer days (summer nights) 2fer...2 classic fuckin albums

  • thanks minus the f word for the answer.

  • Brilliant

  • What you see is the abuse that some of us have suffered.

    It is amazing that even as an 9 yo I was into this tune.

    It is good to see them together and laughing for this world is passing.

  • This was part of the Brian Is Back/15 Big Ones TV special in 1976; certainly a rare clip! It was before Dennis REALLY got into addiction problems. Way kewl.

  • what was dennis addicted to?

  • Mostly cocaine and alcohol, though he danced with heroin too. Smoked a lot of pot too.

  • Never knew there was a video of them doing this one. On the album when this came out, for lead singer they just put "Too embarrassed." Great to see the three brothers, acting like brothers. Wonderful clip, and a funny song.

  • I have an airchecked interview with Brian on some obscure radio station about 1991, and when asked about that song, he giggled, and said, "too silly. That song's just too silly to talk about."

  • Definitely silly. But it has a cult following!

  • For a moment at 1:13....they are simply brother's and everything is alright.
