  • holy crap di anyone hear that huge cough?

  • @SuperPinheadMan

    Not necessarily.. I hate it when people think that these guys (Beatles, Dylan, etc..) wrote their songs 'high'. Grass probably did play a role, however small, but none of them used it as a MEANS to writing. Brian is a musical genius, with or without grass. His biggest inspiration for writing Pet Sounds was Rubber Soul, not marijuana, and he could have taken or left drug. He even states in an interview later in life that he didn't 'utilize' grass to write songs.

  • Only 3 people could come to such great compositions and melodies... Mozart, Beethoven and Brian Wilson!

  • @cruzman3608

    There's a QTV interview where he says the exact contrary to that.

  • @menoziinrevoltado What are you talking about? Brian Wilson didn't write great songs because he used drugs. Brian was just a genius who happened to get high. It's not like monkeys and typewriters. It's not like you get high enough and then Pet Sounds or Sgt. Pepper just comes out of you.

  • @uncccut23 Brian used a lot of those major chords with the seventh note at the bottom. Not to mention the fifth. I think it's one of his musical trademarks. :)

  • Pretty much describes my current state in life completely.

  • @MrRio855 mee tew

  • western recorders looks like a really small long room, is it?

  • man my fav beach boy song

  • When listening to the first part of this video I notice that Carol Kaye (or whoever it was) is playing a bassnote I didn't think was there in this song. It's at 0:31. Just before the F#minor chord. She seems to play G in the A chord. But it makes the song even more exciting actually! Thanks for uploading! By the way, love Brian's cough. Such a funny guy

  • @Seej1982 thanks =)
