I'm always amazed at how the cute teen surf pop progressed to this album. I mean WTF?! Where did this come from? They went from bubblegum to high art. The complexity of some of the arrangements are almost at a classical level.
I have to admit Im kinda new to the beach boys as far as giving their music a real listen (although of course I knew who they for many years).
My idea of this band was unfortunately what a lot of the general publics probably is, a "nostalgia act" who toured on their surfer hits from the glory days of the early 60's.
learning a bit about the bands true history my admiration for them is growing a ton. PET SOUNDS is a stuning work of musical art, and this song is beautiful in a haunting way.
@EpifanoEntertainment lol you fucking idiot. I don't even listen to the Beach Boys all that often and I can still agree that this album is a work of genius. Grow up and appreciate real music.
@EpifanoEntertainment I don't know how old you are, but this album was way before my time. I think it's sometimes hard for younger people to appreciate the importance of music like this and The Beatles etc. We have never known a world without rock n roll. Although I did disagree with some of the albums Rolling Stone chose (TLC and Madonna come to mind!), you have to understand this Beach Boys record changed music with sound effects and layered harmonies, like Nirvana changed it in the '90s.
fuck grizzly bear, anyone who agrees with that farcical comment that grizzly bear is a "modern version" of the beach boys is clearly 17 and hasn't been around long enough to realize that is such a stupid comment that only fellow 17 years olds would agree with. first off, no one is like the beach boys, not even the beatles. and second, there is no "modern version" of 60's music. this is about as modern as pop music gets and any imitation can only be classified by their decade preceding "version"
@Jake29112 haha you are the dumbass for not realising that I was being sarcastic and trying to make a point. wheeeeeeeeeeeyyyyy. and plz don't stalk me like that.
unfucking real! Killer harmonys and bryans bass is especially special!i'm a pro bass player and still can't comprehend his imagination! true genius! By the way mclaren212 your a fucking douche,go and listen to something good,take yourself to a madonna concert you tasteless muppet!
@kevin4peace Completely different bands/albums. You can't really compare the two, imbecile. Except for the fact that Sgt. Peppers was made because of this album.
@angrymanmacetc They are frequently compared by major music critics, and I didn't mention Sgt. Peppers, nor do I think it was as good as the aforementioned Beatles albums. I just don't see why this album is so highly praised.
@kevin4peace because its amazing. if you listen beyond the lyrics being sung and hear the beautiful arrangements and instrumentation you can tell this band are masters of composing, particularly Brian Wilson.
@StillLifeWithMangoes I respect this album for what it is, and I know it was influential for its time, but as for the music, I'd rather take any ELO album over this in terms of instrumentation, beautiful arrangements, and general catchiness.
@kevin4peace There's not liking this album and then there's not seeing why it's so popular. Yes, it's fine to dislike it, but the album was one of the most influential releases of the 20th century. The layers man, the fucking layers!
@Vpmatt Your right. That particular song on Pet Sounds has the misfortune of being on the same album as Caroline no, God only knows, You still believe in me and Wouldn't it be nice. Otherwise it would have certainly been more widely appreciated for it's cherishable beauty. I for one listen to it as well as the others often.
Does any one else notice the influence on strawberry alarm clock's world in a sea shell album? Go listen to it. The record company must have taken influence from pet sounds and wanted to duplicate it's success.
The Beatles and the Beach Boys are not all that completely different. I am taking a music class and reading like crazy and the album "Pet Sounds" influenced Paul like crazy for their album of Sgt. Peppers. The Beach Boys in fact came up with a "formula" on how they got famous, and the Beatles used it too. So they are not all that separated as you guys are battling to say. Brian Wilson was smart though, he knew how to market and how to get out there...
LOL WHO ACTUALLY COMPARES THESE PPL TO THE BEATLES 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT STYLES BUT ARE BOTH ALL TIME FAVORITES PPL SEEM RO DO THAT ALOT BUT THEN AGAIN EVERYONE HAS 2 COMPARE BANDS TO THE BEATLES LOL THEY THE #1 BAND IN HISTORY OF MUSIC INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN CELEBS EVEN MORE WELL KNOWN THAN THE KING OF POP MJ LOL BUT GR8 TUNE THIS ALBUM WAS A BACK TO BACK TO BACK GR8 TUNES THROUGH THE WHOLE ALBUM
One of the most beautiful songs ever written by Brian Wilson. Should have been played on the radio but wasnt a single. So romantic and intimate. Amazing blend of vocals.
@leakystarfish heart of stone, lady jane, under my thumb, Flight 505, she's like a rainbow, sympathy for the devil, no expectations, you can't always get what you want, monkey man, gimme shelter, can't you hear me knocking?, bitch, sister morphine, rocks off, let it loose... Stones have written so many Classics man
It makes me so sad that I wasn't introduced to this specific album earlier. Then again, would I have been able to appreciate it then?
The most sad thing though: how did we go from pure genius of music like this to what is playing today? What happened to the world of music my friends... :(
It's really rare that an album like this is made I think. Did we just have an unnatural glut of great musicians in the 60s and 70s? Who knows. Beethoven and Mozart came along within a crazily small time, working in the same city - sometimes these things just happen.
@EliasMohr those are fine additions and all but they are like rain drops contributing to an ocean. in other words no matter how good this decade thinks they are, they will never be as good as the beach boys or 60's music in general. no disrespec, they are talented musicians, but from an objective point of view examining american pop culture and music, for all intents and purposes they will always remain obscure bands who will always need to be "discovered" by any future musical researcher.
Im 61 and bought sgt pepper new back in l967...loved it then, but now when I listen to it, its not the same....not as good as when I was a teen....always loved pet sounds, great great album, but being a life long kinks fan, I still love one of the greatest albums and most underrated....of all time...the kinks l968...The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society...
I prefer Pet Sounds to every Beatle album, and I'm a bigger Beatle fan. Other than what was going to be with Smile, no BB album matches the Beatles except this one. Pepper is too candy-coated and flashy psychedelic. I prefer the honest emotional romanticism of Pet Sounds and actually I prefer Revolver, Rubber Soul, The White Album and Abbey Road to Sgt. Pepper. It was more of the times but hasn't dated as well as Pet Sounds which IMO is simply timeless. But it's all a matter of taste I guess.
I don't understand how he fit so much into just 3 minutes! All of his songs on Pet Sounds are about 3 minutes long, yet if you listen to 'wouldn't it be nice' or 'hang on to your ego', it seems the songs span a great deal longer!
Anyone heard the released song from his new Gershwin album yet? It is FANTASTIC.
@nokturnal5647 I rank Pet sounds right up there with them, all are great albums, Sgt Peppers was the Beatles trying to beat or one up Pet Sounds...I love all those albums
I don't know if it's because i was born in the 50's, and grew up with the Beach Boys etc, but to me, nothing in this modern world can elevate to this level of Beauty. They may have all the digital technology available, but all that does NOT make everlasting timeless songs, of which the likes of Brian Wilson and his (then) contempories created.

I just found out Brian Wilson was only 23 when he made "Pet Sounds." And he was mostly deaf in one ear. And it was only released in mono. This is almost super-human really.
I've just discovered this wonderful album for the first time, and this song is far and away my favourite, it's really beautiful and moving. In fact I've never heard a song quite like it, it's almost like having an out-of-body experience, when he hits the high notes of the chorus.
It must have been so exciting to grow up in the 1960s with all this brilliant, innovative music coming out.

I don't understand how he fit so much into just 3 minutes! All of his songs on Pet Sounds are about 3 minutes long, yet if you listen to 'wouldn't it be nice' or 'hang on to your ego', it seems the songs span a great deal longer!
Anyone heard the released song from his new Gershwin album yet? It is FANTASTIC.

Pet Sounds is great, but I would rank Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Revolver, Rubber Soul and The White Album all higher.

@nokturnal5647 I rank Pet sounds right up there with them, all are great albums, Sgt Peppers was the Beatles trying to beat or one up Pet Sounds...I love all those albums

I don't know if it's because i was born in the 50's, and grew up with the Beach Boys etc, but to me, nothing in this modern world can elevate to this level of Beauty. They may have all the digital technology available, but all that does NOT make everlasting timeless songs, of which the likes of Brian Wilson and his (then) contempories created.

I just found out Brian Wilson was only 23 when he made "Pet Sounds." And he was mostly deaf in one ear. And it was only released in mono. This is almost super-human really.

I've just discovered this wonderful album for the first time, and this song is far and away my favourite, it's really beautiful and moving. In fact I've never heard a song quite like it, it's almost like having an out-of-body experience, when he hits the high notes of the chorus.
It must have been so exciting to grow up in the 1960s with all this brilliant, innovative music coming out.

I'm a big music fan and it's my first time hearing this one. Wow!! What a gorgeous, flowing ballad. What a brilliant mind Brian possesses.

No song captures the actual "feel" or atmosphere of an intimate moment, BOTH musically and lyrically, than this one does.
I am completely convinced of this.

@GameGearLTD I said the exact same thing to my mom, but with Behtoven (I think I spelled that wrong) instead of Mozart
