I've found that a fun game is to take a song and describe what kind of food it would be if that song was a food. For example, Simon and Garfunkel taste like honey on bread, death metal tastes like seared sirloin, and according to my mother, country music tastes like spam.

In my eyes, The Beach Boys taste like walnut cake - sweet, but also uniquely savory.

In my opinion, some Beach Boys songs DO taste like a juicy steak. Case in point: "Let Us Go On This Way".



Also, I have no idea why I'm posting in this thread.

A New England clambake...

Maine Lobster, steamed clams, drawn butter and corn on the cob!

Cold draft beer!

What a alimentary metaphor - food for music!

"Like Water for Chocolate!" (the movie)  LOL 

Maybe it varies according to from whence you hail...

Varies because, despite popular wisdom, the Beach Boys output consists of quite a varied canon.

Surfin' USA tastes like good quality candy.

Surf's Up more like a high quality sweet/savoury slice of cake.

Kokomo.......fake egg...but well made fake egg.

Pet Sounds tastes like warm summer rain during a chill winter snowfall.

Smiley Smile tastes like an everlasting gum-drop.

Wild Honey tastes like a near ice-cold beer after a hard-days work.

20-20 tastes like stale crackers with sharp-cheddar cheese whiz topping.

If you could taste the sensation of floating through a cloud, I think that is what Friends would taste like.

Carl Wilson vocals = dark chocolate  Grin
Carl = Dark chocolate and red wine.
Brian = Hot chocolate.
Dennis = Black coffee.
Al = Sardines (Jardine the Sardine).
Mike = Rogaine.
Bruce = Just a hint of vanilla.

Al = Sardines (Jardine the Sardine).
Mike = Rogaine.
Bruce = Just a hint of vanilla.

Brian's - French hot chocolate
Dennis -Italian Expresso
Alan - Butterscotch - like chocolate, only blond - makes a great sundae!
Mike - a real Coca-Cola in a green glass bottle (not to be confused with the other) Tall,  effervescent and on stage quenches the audience's thirst for "rock and roll music." 

and Bruce's  Vanilla - according to the "Joy of Baking" was once so rare, that only royalty could afford it." and vanilla is used to flavor the chocolate (Carl)(as well as the astute "red wine" quality) second most expensive flavoring, and is the most widely used in pastry making.  Every have a cake without vanilla? It is subtle, indispensable, and gets the job done.  You must be correct.

I wasn't exactly trying to be derogatory when I say Bruce's voice is like vanilla. What I mean is that it's not very special on its own, but in with everything else, like you describe, it gives it a subtle edge.

If you could taste the sensation of floating through a cloud, I think  Friends would taste like "cotton candy..."

20/20 has a great cover "Bluebirds" and that Otis Redding stax/volt style trumpet (brass, I guess) thing going on...(I think...)

and that great eye chart...that became very useful... LOL

And "Do It Again, I Can Hear Music, Cotton Fields (which one of my professors used to sing to help us remember a "wills" concept) and The Nearest Faraway Place" - it was a great summer with Do It Again as a single! 

a "taste" from that Summer of might be a Cape Codder...Stoli Vodka (although it was most likely Brand X rot-gut) and Ocean Spray cranberry with lime...with Wisconsin or (New York) extra sharp cheddar and Triscuit crackers!   Cool
