surf rock
Surf music is a genre of popular music associated with surf culture, particularly Orange County and other areas of Southern California.
It has two basic subgenres:
* Surf pop music, including both surf ballads and dance music that includes a vocal line. Sometimes called "beach music" as it was popular amongst non-surfers as well. (Surf pop should not be confused with the "shag tempo" beach music of the Carolinas, however).=
* Surf rock, generally instrumental in nature with an electric guitar or saxophone playing the main melody Read Full BioSurf music is a genre of popular music associated with surf culture, particularly Orange County and other areas of Southern California.

Many notable surf bands have been equally noted for both surf instrumental and surf pop music, so surf music is generally considered as a single genre despite the variety of these styles.
Recordings are normally attributed to the bands that performed them, rather than to individual artists.
Additionally, surfers have internalized a form of reggae music and created their own Rasta identity. Both in Puerto Rico and the United States, youth surfers in the late 80's and early 90's found their own niche in the reggae world. Interestingly enough, the surfers in both countries were not urban youth, such as the genre had previously been identified, but were upper middle class, light skinned "blanquitos" or "whities". This shows the diversity of the surfing subculture and its ability to adopt aspects of completely different cultures. Also, this permits a cross-cultural connection to be formed between the origins of the music base (Jamaica in the case of reggae) and the locations where it is being listened to by the surfers (the United States and Puerto Rico).

Good Vibrations
The Beach Boys Lyrics
I-I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me the excitations (oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations)
Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations (oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (excitations)
Ah, ah, my my, what elation
I don't know where but she sends me there
Oh, my my, what a sensation
Oh, my my, what elation
Oh, my my, what
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin'
(Ahh)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
Na na na na na, na na na
Na na na na na, na na na (bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)

Beautiful song 💓
AirPenguin
@Alissa Reminiec then don’t listen the fucking song
David Berchtold
@Alissa Reminiec Don't be a hater. Just close your eyes and take in the talents of these gifted artists. It might help if you invest in a pair of headphones. This masterpiece was at the top of the charts in 1966. It was in the top 40 for an incredible 12 weeks. It was a certified million seller. ok ok went off on my own tangent, but the instruments used in this song were combined to create a wonderful song that has been included throughout the years in various commercials and television shows. And, Sheldon Cooper admired the sound of the Theremin.
Alissa Reminiec
what if you can't stand the sound of a theramin?
Linda Sook
I know
CIRCE Sensei
Can you imagine in '66 driving out to the beach for the first time that summer and hearing this come on the radio for the first time?
Leonardo Iglesias
Are you interested in landscape and travel or in music?

@Dax Rowley really had to bring up your opinions on gen Z even when it wasn't related to the conversation lol

@Ace Wakefield more like for not being them selves. Now you get ostracized for not denying science and enabling people’s mental illness.
Knigi Studios
@Dax Rowley If you actually lived in that time you'd be crying
