Possibly the worst video I've ever seen. Probably best that its made its appearance after the single has stopped shooting up the charts.

But that was actually a pretty bad video. It looked like a montage of unrelated car commercials with gratuitous bikini shots.

I find the moment when the garage door opens and the guys turn to the camera and smile very touching, for some reason. Doesn't matter how young or old you are...The Beach Boys will always be there. ...in your garage, apparently.

Bikinis + Surfboards + Hipsters = Really shouldn't work. I don't hate it but it's obviously nothing special. I did like the cheeky quick shot of Mike/Mike's hat towards the end though. In fact I think it's avatar worthy.

It would've made a whole lot more sense if they would've been performing the song in the garage. Now they just seem to be hanging out there for whatever reason, which is weird.

It is okay. In the same vein as the videos for "Getcha back" or "It's gettin' late" only a little more tasteful. But the boys' appearance at the end was not very well imo. It looks so cheap and stereotype (almost like the Beach Boys were about to party with the young ones). They should've shown them playing the song in the garage while the young people stand their in awe and watching tem. That would be a cool ending but now it is more like a withdrawn dream of an old guy who can't accept that he is just that.....old

This video needs one more minute of Beach Boys footage at the very least

I love the concept - that the Beach Boys have been locked in a garage for 50 years waiting to be freed by the grandchildren of Jack Nicholson, the Fonz and the Hoff. Hey, they might not have had any food in there but what a wardrobe!

It's passable but not as great as my ideas for a TWGMTR video are.

Digged that Love You was there, but I think basically it was made by some LA hipsters who dig the beach boys and submitted to Capitol much like the competition one for H&V. Capitol prob went 'ye this is good, shows young ppl interested, doesnt cost us anything as album is out already, why not?' I still prefer the fan one, but where di it go?  I cant find it now  it had lots of clips from concerts back in the 70's and stuff

Here in Germany lots of stuff on YouTube isn't available due to German laws. The lyric video wasn't either. Try Firefox with the ProxTube add-on, works most of the time, worked for me this time, too.

I like that the images/hairstyles/cars, etc. seem to belong to all periods from the 60s to now; that sense of timelessness is appropriate to the theme of the song. The video occasionally captures the wistfulness of the track as well, but I wish we could just get away from the beach/surfing imagery (impossible, I know).

Y'know, I didn't think it was so bad. Wasn't sure if they could blend 1960s California, cars/girls/surfing with today's hipsters... but I think they pulled it off pretty well. Love You cover was a nice touch.
