I know its a common one that The Beach Boys were just a surf/fun in the sun band, but I found this passage unbelievably laughable:  "but it was 'Pet Sounds,' the penultimate Beach Boys record, which came to be considered as the iconic collection of surf songs."

Especially considering the source.. http://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/5329-the-best-surf-music-bands-ever

Reminds me a bit of this gem...



Brian: Mike, you're good with words...can you take a look at this?

Mike: Anything for my cousin Brian!  Lemme see that there.

*pauses*

Mike: Yeeeeeaaaaa, these lyrics are just way too depressing Bri.  Let's inject some positivity!  How about "I just wasn't made for these FRIES"?  Like, we're already at the hamburger stand, she still has the T-Bird's keys, but the fries are cold...so she splits, right?  So like...*hums a melody*...yeah, yeah so she cruises down to the beach...it's midnight right, so the moon is creating a really beautiful phosphorescent glow on the waves...

Brian: *laughs* Ah Mike, the song is already done.  Tony and I wrote it in five minutes!  FIVE MINUTES!  Can you believe it?  I just need you to proof-read it, you know?

Mike: Oh, uh...yeah, sure...anything for you Brian. Hmmm...a-ha, you wrote "were" in the second line when I think you meant "where".

Brian: Wow Mike, I didn't even notice that!  Second line in and there's a huge mistake! Oh man! *laughs*  Cool, thanks.

Mike: So...I like, get a co-writing credit for that, right?

Brian: *laughs loudly* Hahaha, yeah sure!  Yeah, a co-write.

Mike: I'll just write my name right at the top here then...

Brian: WHOA, no no no.  You're serious?  You want a co-writing credit for that? 

Mike: Well, why not?

*awkward silence*

Brian: I'd like the pad of paper back now, Mike.  I'm really busy right now.

Mike: Can I keep the pen?

Brian: No, that's my only pen.

And production aside, I’d so much rather hear a 14 year old David Marks shred some guitar on Chug-a-lug than hear a 51 year old Mike Love sing about bangin some chick in a swimming pool.-rab2591

Imagine that; an article written by someone who knows little about the Beach Boys and even less about surf music.
