@thomassiegler9898

@Glenn Springthorpe I feel with you my friend but I dare to disagree.
I might not capture the magic of the American music of that time.

I can appreciate a lot the genius of Brian Wilson - BUT

The Beatles where four of them, and I cannot be but DEEPLY touched
by their predecessor album by the name of RUBBER SOUL.

Currently I'm listening to both of the albums song per song
and I have to admit: There's also some deepness within the Beach Boys.

Lyrics:

Wouldn’t It Be Nice:
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know it's gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
We could be married (we could be married)
And then we'd be happy (and then we'd be happy)
Wouldn't it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Wouldn't it be nice

Good night my baby
Sleep tight my baby
Good night my baby
Sleep tight my baby


You Still Believe in Me:
I know perfectly well
I'm not where I should be
I've been very aware
You've been patient with me
Every time we break up
You bring back your love to me
And after all I've done to you
How can it be

You still believe in me

I try hard to be more
What you want me to be
But I can't help how I act
When you're not here with me
I try hard to be strong
But sometimes I fail myself
And after all I've promised you
So faithfully

You still believe in me

I wanna cry


That’s Not Me:
I had to prove that I could make it alone
But that's not me
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
But that's not me

I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl

I'm a little bit scared
Cause I haven't been home in a long time
You needed my love
And I know that I left at the wrong time

My folks when I wrote them
Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me
I went through all kinds of changes
Took a look at myself and said that's not me

I miss my pad and the places I've known
And every night as I lay there alone I will dream

I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready

I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn’t so pretty


Don’t Talk (Put Your Head on My Shoulder):
I can hear so much in your sighs
And I can see so much in your eyes
There are words we both could say

But don't talk, put your head on my shoulder
Come close, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, take my hand and let me hear your heart beat

Being here with you feels so right
We could live forever tonight
Lets not think about tomorrow

And don't talk put your head on my shoulder
Come close, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, take my hand and listen to my heart beat

Listen, listen, listen

Don't talk, put your head on my shoulder
Don't talk, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, put your head on my shoulder
Don't talk, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, put your head on my shoulder


I’m Waiting for the Day:
I came along when he broke your heart
That's when you needed someone
To help forget about him
I gave you love with a brand new start
That's what you needed the most
To set your broken heart free

I know you cried, and you felt blue
But when I could I gave strength to you
I'm waiting for the day when you can love again

I kissed your lips
And when your face looked sad
It made me think about him
And that you still loved him so
But you know that pretty soon
I made you feel glad
That you belonged to me
And love began to show

He hurt you then, but that's all gone
I guess I'm saying you're the only one
I'm waiting for the day when you can love again

He hurt you then, but that's all done
I guess I'm saying you're the only one
I'm waiting for the day when you can love again

You didn't think that I could sit around and let him work
You didn't think that I could sit around and watch him take you
You didn't think that I could sit around and watch him go
You didn't think that I could sit back and let you go


Let’s Go Away for Awhile:
(Instrumental) Not included here for some reason.


Sloop John B:
We come on the sloop John B
My grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we did roam
Drinking all night
Got into a fight
Well I feel so broke up
I want to go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up
I wanna go home

The first mate he got drunk
And broke in the Cap'n's trunk
The constable had to come and take him away
Sheriff John Stone
Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up I wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, let me go home
Why don't you let me go home
(Hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B
I feel so broke up I wanna go home
Let me go home

The poor cook he caught the fits
And threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home
Why don't they let me go home
This is the worst trip I've ever been on

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, let me go home
Why don't you let me go home


God Only Knows:
I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows, etc.


I Know There’s an Answer:
I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their saftey zones

Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself


Here Today:
It starts with just a little glance now
Right away you're thinkin' 'bout romance now
You know you ought to take it slower
But you just can't wait to get to know her

A brand new love affair is such a beautiful thing
But if you're not careful think about the pain it can bring

It makes you feel so bad
It makes your heart feel sad
It makes your days go wrong
It makes your nights so long

You've got to keep in mind love is here today
And it's gone tomorrow
It's here and gone so fast

Right now you think that she's perfection
This time is really an exception
Well you know I hate to be a downer
But I'm the guy she left before you found her

Well I'm not saying you won't have a good love with her
But I keep on remembering things like they were

She made me feel so bad
She made my heart feel sad
She made my days go wrong
And made my nights so long

You've got to keep in mind love is here today
And it's gone tomorrow
It's here and gone so fast

Keep in mind love is here today
And it's gone tomorrow
It's here and gone so fast

Love is here today
And it's gone tomorrow
It's here and gone so fast


I Just Wasn’t Made for These Times:
I keep looking for a place to fit
Where I can speak my mind
I've been trying hard to find the people
That I won't leave behind
They say I got brains
But they ain't doing me no good
I wish they could

Each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself
But what goes wrong

Sometimes I feel very sad
Sometimes I feel very sad
(Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)
Sometimes I feel very sad
(Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

I guess I just wasn't made for these times

Every time I get the inspiration
To go change things around
No one wants to help me look for places
Where new things might be found
Where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out
What's it all about

Each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself
But what goes wrong

Sometimes I feel very sad
Sometimes I feel very sad
(Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)
Sometimes I feel very sad
(Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

I guess I just wasn't made for these times, etc.


Pet Sounds:
(Instrumental)


Caroline, No:
Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
Oh, Caroline no

Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true
Oh, Caroline you

Break my heart
I want to go and cry
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Oh, Caroline why

Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone
Oh, Caroline no



@dudeman5303

Idk,I think making them short and to the point is a strength because it makes them accessible for pop listeners but they also don't wear out their welcome with it. I'd love 10 minute versions too but I find overall it's much more rewarding to be able to play the song multiple times. I think when songs end up being like 6-10 minutes they end up dragging on a lot, a lot of times they end up just repeating things that have been said/done already and those things lose their impact the second/third/fourth/etc time around.

Look at a band like Metallica and their albums master of puppets and And Justice for All - lots of those songs are great but end up getting kinda meh halfway through because they end up repeating the same chorus like 8 times per song - and sometimes their songs, like Disposable Heroes, the choruses have two parts, so you hear both parts four times each several times and even though it's a good refrain you end up just completely bored by the 6 minute mark because the choruses have completely lost their impact.

I like a solid long song too, but I don't like long songs that are only long for the sake of a lengthy song. I think a song should only be the length it was made to be, if a person needs only 3 minutes to say what they want to I think it's best they keep it at 3 minutes. Some things definitely need a lot more time, and I love it when it is necessary but idk.

I got into progressive rock when I was in high school and I loved the idea of long songs but as time has gone on I have come to think it can be pretentious as hell if the artist is just doing it to do it and doesn't come off like they believe the song had to be that long. Or long rock operas that get played off as though they are better than other albums just because they tell a story and have long songs - I honestly haven't heard many rock operas that I felt really stood out and were worthy of the high praise the fans gave it, I used to think songs/albums were better just for being longer and having traits of the rock opera and I really think some people can get pretentious as hell about it.

At this point, unless it's one of the best things I've ever heard I just can't stand it. I think songs should only be as long as they have to be, for some songs that length is 2 minutes, for others it's 10 (especially a lot of jazz tracks), but I just am not a fan of pop music being longer overall because I think short songs have the advantage of remaining fresh for their whole duration and they tend to make you want to hear it again - the fact that you wish there was a 10 minute version of any song on this album is proof of a short songs effectiveness. You are left wanting more because it's short and to the point, it doesn't have the chance to wear out it's welcome.

I find when songs end up being 10 minutes but they have a lot of sections that get repeated I end up only getting 3 or 4 minutes in before I either skip the song or start it over. Whenever I discover a video uploaded of a song that is extended - like a 30 minutes version of a song where it has been edited so that it gets repeated several times, I get bored of it pretty fast. It's just not the same.

Edit: the best examples of long songs that I appreciate for their length that are still pop-oriented are Black Sabbath's later Ozzy ears albums like Sabotage and Never Say Die - most of the songs are actually 2 songs put together, splitting at around the halfway mark but each song it's own unique journey, whether it be the song Symptom of the Universe beginning as essentially a thrash metal song and ending up with a really swinging/soulful acoustic section at the end that almost sounds reminiscent of some Sublime songs like What I Got, they are the perfect examples of long songs that definitely deserved to be long but are still accessible despite the experimental nature.

@annonymost9318

It really does sound like
Brian was hanging out in the same world of
sound 'hallucintions" as I have my whole life...
it is always x mas there then.....I just consider it heaven on earth actually
and the challenge of a melody and world of that kinda big sound....is addictive to try to recreate.....
also makes it fun to be a musician...
or...........
Brian Wilson...
I hope he has fond memories of making this.....( she thinks...oh...she wrote)

This is. a great album.

@oppothumbs1

4 or 5 great songs and the rest are OK. The other songs are not revolutionary and my grandmother would love them. The great songs are God Only Knows, Caroline No, Wouldn't It be Nice. Sloop is good. The rest are OK at best. Nobody will admit that the rest of the record would not hold on its own.

@koolguy5344

@Oppothumbs M funny that I kind of agree with you. I'm sitting here listening to the album and reading the comments of people who describe it as if it came down from heaven itself and am just like "... really? It's good, sure, but is it really that good?"

@based_prophet

Heil goat-chan

@connorpixley4835

Why would anyone? Everyone here needs to support Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys, not your freeloading ass... uploading other peoples music isn't a job, it isn't honorable,
