I hate mike love. Not only did he rob the world out of Smile, one of the greatest achievements in music history, but now he's out there dragging the Beach Boys' legacy into the dirt.

I hope he gets pneumonia. I don't necessarily know what that is, but I want him to contract it.

@SteamGrace Mike Love didn't rob the world of Smile, drugs did.

[numbnuts41]

@harrisonhedges hello is mike still alive?

[harrisonhedges]

@numbnuts41 Yeah, he's 70 years old but continues to tour with Bruce Johnston as The Beach Boys.

Mike Love's true vision of what the Beach Boys are - and proof that someone can be in a band for 40+ years and miss the point entirely.

[SteamGrace]

@harrisonhedges Believe what you want. Mike Love pretty much bullied Van Dyke off of the project, and Brian stated the number one reason Smile got shelved was because Mike hated it.

And just when the world thought Mike Love couldn't bring the 'Boys down any lower than a Fat Boys duet, he gives us an quasi-rap ode to Baywatch.

@HarveyBacktheBeatles well mike was the second biggest horndog of the band so it does make sense unfortunately

[HarveyBacktheBeatles]

this video is way too tna. I mean beach boys were about girls in swimsuits but not in a overtly sexual way

[jettyd69]

This is so damn sleazy, so very Mike. I wonder how much Carl and Al enjoyed it? Somehow I don't think they would have.

The Beach Boys Forever

@BooNube : Couldn't agree more with your sentiments & comment, regarding that uber-arsehole Mike Love. You are spot-on !! It amazes me that there's actually a significant-minority of Mike Love apologists / fans out there .. like this guy runnersdialzero333, below. Maybe they're family-relatives of that horde of love-children (no pun intended ) that ML has fathered over so many years & so many failed marriages.

[runnersdialzero333]

@colindominy Mike was opposed to Pet Sounds, too. It came out. Brian shelved Smile. Mike questioned direction, but SANG his fucking parts as assigned. The blind Mike hatred while blindly praising everything Brian, far from a perfect human being, ever did, is somewhat sickening.

0:09, Brian just watching Mike Love thinking "What is this bullshit?"

[colindominy]

@runnersdialzero333 : no, you're off the beam, friend .. you need to do your research in more depth .. the literature is all out there nowadays . so go look it up .. then you'll get the right angle on things ...
