  • Whoever hit the dislike button needs to move the rock they bumped there head on. RIP Carl. Best voice out of all of them.

  • Beautiful song. I always used to sing this one to one of my ex-girlfriends on the karaoke.

  • beautiful record

  • Great song! I love when they break into acappella at 1:49!

  • We hear Carl's sweet sweet music.....what a beautiful voice

  • I remember I got this on cassette tape for free at a garage sale when I was a kid. I used to rewind and listen to this song over and over on my walkman. good times...

  • This is,by far,the best harmonies the Boys have had on record,in my own opinion! Carl's voice blends in perfectly on this cover of the Ronettes classic!

  • This was the 1st or 2nd concert I ever saw. Back in 69 or 70 I went with one of my best friends and they just blew us away. At that time they were as good in concert as on the radio.

  • @jltardiff They were one of the few concerts I've been to. :) But that was only a year and a half ago.

  • This really is the best Beach Boys track.

  • Who the hell had enough brain damage to hit the dislike on this?

  • Carl, we hear your sweet, sweet music...RIP great man

  • One of the most phenomonal male vocals I have ever heard in my life- words fail me as to the beauty of this song

  • This was one of the first 4 45 rpm records I bought. I about wore the record out. Wish I'd been able to hang onto it.

  • This was one of 4 45 records I bought..the first I ever bought in music. The others were Gary Puckett & Union Gap, Smoky Robinson & Miracles and Georgie Fame (Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde). It's so odd I can remember this from so long ago and can't remember what I did yesterday

  • Was this Brian on lead?

  • @TheIntruders, I think Carl is singing lead.

  • @TheIntruders It was Carl's hit, although Brian came darn close. Hmm, could it be because they were brothers? I will try to find Brian's version and post it for us all here. You know, there is nothing new under the sun (excepting technology). One day we will have another Beach Boys' style group, though we might not live to hear it. All a "boy group" needs is a Brian, and voila!

  • The Honeys did an excellent live cover back in 2008 the good news the vid is still on Youtube

  • this is our first dance song for our wedding

  • By the time this came along, the guys were trying too hard to appeal to everybody, IMO. It's a good song, but it isn't inspired Beach Boys from the Pet Sounds, through Surfs Up and after, era.

    Any good band, in a similar style, could have written this son, IMO. It's not uniquely Beach Boys in quality.

  • This is great and so is the Kathy Trocalli version with the Beach Boys.

  • RECORDED AT GOLD STAR RECORDING STUDIOS IN LOS ANGELES

    Just like the Ronnettes version

    What a Great Song.

    Thank you Ellie Philip Barry

  • Every time I hear this it is like hearing it for the first time.

  • amazing

  • I saw them in concert in Washington D.C. for the Bicentennial. What a concert,along with everything else,fireworks were crazy big. That was the place to be for the nations 2000th birthday.

  • Som incrível! Thank's!!!

  • This is a pretty good rendition but I like the Ronettes one better.

  • Wow they just blow me away with their vocals, just no words for the beauty of this song.

  • the beautiful voice of Carl Wilson...awesome!......

  • @drummermaneleven

    Super that you also notice it. I do not understand why he was not featured more in their songs. He played guitar well also.

  • @drummermaneleven Although Brian had an excellent voice, Carl really had the perfectly pitched voice and this song expresses it well. And the best version of this tune out there.

  • @FullMoonVideo

    Isn't it amazing how similar Brian's and Carl's voices were? I suppose we should not be surprised because they were brothers. Brian is still touring. Can you believe it? I sure love Carl's six-string guitar in their first hit, Surfin USA, perhaps my favorite Beach Boys song. It rings. Amazing that Brian wrote it in high school. Too bad cousin Mike Love is not touring with Brian. Mike seems to sing effortlessly.

  • @MyPaulHenry  I don't think Mike and Brian get along very well now days.

  • @FullMoonVideo This is why in September Brian stated that there would be no hopes of a BB reunion tour this year or in the future . I wish Mike would just leave .

  • @Medic83301: Stupid people shall perpetually eat their words.

  • Carl has such a beautiful voice 

  • TCM

  • 1:50!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Always brings back memories, heading to c street in ventura back in the 70s with my buds, Beach Boys.....one of the greatest of all time.

  • A true classic!!

  • I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THE BEACH BOYS !!!

    ... TILL THE DAY I DIE!

  • @MEGAUFO777, me, too.

  • love the ronettes version as well...

  • @FLE22P, me, too, but imho, this is so pretty, that anyone can do a good version of it. I haven't heard a bad version, yet.

  • Brilliant. Second ONLY to The Beatles....

  • AAAHHH the sixtys,best times ever,but not gone --afew bourbons and Utube and I can go rite back . G'day from down under

  • wow

  • i don't know... i feel like discounting brian wilson's importance to this band is like pointing to yellow submarine and saying the beatles didn't need john and paul. this song was written by phil spector and friends for the ronettes

  • This helps prove, why the band didn't always need to rely on Brian. Brian wasn't even involved with this song.

  • @TheRealBadassMcgee Technically correct, "didn't always need to rely...", but seriously, it's not like this is Good Vibrations, I Get Around, Sail On Sailor, or pretty much the rest of their list that w/out Brian's input wouldn't have been nearly as great. So the Beach Boys copped a half-ass Phil Spector song & didn't step on their dicks recording it w/out Brian... What's your point? Brian sucks?

  • Check out Freddie Mercury's version. It was under a brief time(very early 70's) when he tried a stage name of Larry Lurex which featured Brian May on guitar and Roger Taylor on drums. With the addition of John Deacon on bass they became Queen, The Best band ever.

  • @rden94 dick

  • Freddie Mercury's version is better

  • @PrawnNumberTwo Freddie WAS the best singer of all time :)

  • my mom just made me play this song for her because it reminds her of me and the guy im dating. The beach boys are amazing<3

  • This song I filled my childhood along with many others by The Beach Boys.

  • @kaglunde ..me too .........

  • Phil Spector had a hand in writing this (with Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich), and had The Ronettes originally record it in 1966. However, as his "overproduced" version {and their last single} only reached the very bottom of Billboard's "Hot 100", the Boys' version reached the "Top 10" [their last at the time].

  • @matthewjohn007 I really doubt it.

  • Comment removed

  • @NoisemakerArrow ......That's what's so great about FREEWILL. You can DOUBT anything from GOD, another's opinion, or whether true love exists or not. DOUBT IT, DOUBT IT, DOUBT IT...and so on. Just don't forget to remember....your DOUBTS belong to you. THEY are fully yours and I can only hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy the LOVE that IS. I would rather enjoy the creative aspect of MIND, not the negating aspect (ie doubt).

  • @matthewjohn007 I forget what this argument is about, since you deleted your comments, but it sounds like you're plugging religion.

  • These guys always had such a fantastic vocal mix!

  • @596559655965 Their harmonies make me melt.

  • SUPER

  • einfach toll

  • großartig! flower power-feeling hoch drei,da kann man die jetzige,versaute zeit ganz schnell vergessen und träumen

  • Nur eine Hülle und darunter ist die eigentliche Musik,die ich suchte, aber auch das passende Video dazu, wo ist es bitte?

  • Would you happen to have "Surfin" (not Surfing U.S.A). It's kind of doo wop...starts of with with the baritone singing "Bom bom dip dip dip dip". It was their first or 2nd record.
