Summer Of Love!

I'm not just making a joke!

When I first stumbled upon it I was red with embarrassment. But lately, I've made it a habit of looking at the video when in the mood for an easy target to laugh at, but then I just end up playing it over and over and the whole song gets stuck in my head for days on end. I think I actually love the song at this point!

I don't think I've ever hated any BB or BB-related solo song...MAYBE disliked.  There were some albums/songs that took a while to get used to, though:

Friends (the album) took a few listens, but by the 8th or 9th listen, it became my favorite album, and has been for the past 20 years or so!

It  took me about 12 years to finally understand the appeal of "Steamboat", but now it's one of my favorite tracks on Holland.

It took me a while to like "Catch A Wave", because I had heard "Sidewalk Surfin" so many times before EVER hearing CAW.

And in the past 2 years or so, I've grown to appreciate Surf's Up (The Album) more than I ever have in the past.

I'm sorry, EVEN Dennis? He's like, second only to Brian!

Dennis had the songwriting skills to pick up the slack once Brian retired as leader/main songwriter of the group.

Newguy, you seriously need to listen to Pacific Ocean Blue, if listening to Denny's songs on the early 70's efforts still hasn't convinced you.... If you already have listened to it, well, listen to it again!  Grin

Some of my favorite songs of all time is "you & I" , "be with me" & "forever". Dennis did definately have a few gems.

The person posting as Newguy likes Dennis and knows that people get riled up when he denies Denny's contributions. That's why he does it.

Yeah, I can relate to that - after disowning the BB's for some years over it, I all of a sudden have "Still Cruisin'" rolling through my sorry head.  I ain't playin' the video tho'!

BTW, it's in the "Like" not "Love" section  LOL

That's not true. Dennis does have amazing songs i'm just comparing him to his older brother that's all even though it's not fair. lol

When I first heard Add some music I thought "this is incredibly mediocre". It's currently my favorite song of all time (but I'll find new favorite song in a couple of days).
