Title: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: Freddie French-Pounce on June 23, 2012, 03:34:58 AM We all know a good portion of The Beach Boys best output has been a collection of music that is very personal to Brian, often filled with emotions and other things that, as human beings, a large number of us also feel. That being said, are there any Beach Boys Songs - Band or Solo - that at one point or another you have been able to closely relate to?

The first line of Heroes & Villains resonates with me, although the rest doesn't obviously. Please Let Me Wonder. Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: GeorgeFell on June 23, 2012, 04:56:56 AM The warmth of the sun.

Other than that, yeah -- mark me down as a Heroes and Villains character. Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: Mr. Cohen on June 23, 2012, 09:40:54 AM Whoops.

I guess I can relate! I'm yet to actually get into that position, but I'm sure Sloop John B. helped ;D Please Let Me Wonder. Exactly the same here - problem is a certain someone dislikes The Beach Boys, so, y'know, it can't be used to full effect. Sending lyrics still had an good effect anyway.

I don't care, it's still at the top of the songs I relate to.
Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: GhostyTMRS on June 24, 2012, 08:07:43 PM "Girl Don't Tell Me"....you go on summer vacation, you meet a girl, you fall in love, you go back to school, she goes back to school, she never writes....that's happened to me. It's depressing at the time but years later becomes a fond memory. Can't explain why.

Busy Doin' Nothin' - as a student I spend most of my time doing just that. Kiss Me, Baby Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: onkster on June 28, 2012, 01:06:06 PM That's Not Me is a big one. (There are, apparently, 14 others.)
Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: startBBtoday on June 28, 2012, 01:22:38 PM Kiss Me Baby
Title: Re: Songs You've Been Able To Relate To At One Point Or Another Post by: bcdam on June 29, 2012, 12:38:41 AM The most is probably "I'm Waiting For The Day"; a very romantic and wistful sentiment.
Then, in turns "You Still Believe In Me", or basically anything from PS. "All Summer Long" (very evocative of being a kid in the summer) "Love Surrounds Me" (if I'm in a downer mood), "Disney Girls" (though 30 years too old for me) |
