The Worst of The Beach Boys

Post particularly low points musically or otherwise in this thread. To start, the Problem Child video featuring Gilbert Gottfried

OK, I get it. You don't have any really good ideas for threads, but y9u need to see your name as OP.
Must have missed mom and dad's " if you don't have anything good to say about someone, don't say anything at all" lecture. 

I don't see the obsession to continually start negative threads, about ANY/ALL BBs

Enjoyed watching that vid again; that track's a guilty pleasure and sounds like a companion piece to the terrific Rock and Roll to the Rescue…

I think there might have been a thread along these lines back when those polls trying to identify the favourite track on each released album were being run.

[chaki]

I figured there's probably been 1000 threads like this but I really need a place to compile all this bad 80s stuff. Fat Boys video here I come.

Wipe Out is at LEAST 500% better than Summer of Love. Scientists have proven this in lab conditions. The control group was very lucky.

A shame it didn't lead to collaboration with... Public Enemy, say.

Bass! How low can Mike go?
Kokomo, what a brother know...

4 year old me totally agrees with those studies.

Oh, let's see," most recently", "Alone On Christmas Day" for an appetizer, to be followed by the hollow "Pisces Brothers", and the mundane "Daybreak Over The Ocean". Shall I go on? Ok, if you insist. "SUEmahaminah", "Everyone's In Luhv With Me", er, uh, I mean You. And the ever lovin trainwreck that is the whole of "Summer in Paradise".

I have problems with a track called "Good Vibrations". First of all, there is this annoying bit of tape warble at the beginning, there are some obvious sounding edits (like they couldn't play this song in one take without messing it up) and the damn tambourine is way too loud. Every time I hear the tv ad for the Love And Mercy blu-ray, that tambourine makes me cringe. And to top it off, the whole damn song is in mono without any stereo separation whatsoever! Who in their right mind would listen to a song in mono? And what in the bloody hell is a "blossom world" Also, I have a very hard time dancing to the slow part that comes out of nowhere and I really like to dance a lot. I'm dancing right now as I'm typing this.

Considering how much religion has caused suffering in this world, a song called God Only Knows should be banned. Also, the song features a prominent French horn part, and back in the days French horn was used to signal hunters - by choosing to use that particular instrument, the song's arranger promotes cruelty towards animals. Disgusting song.

Given that England has traditionally been at war with the French for centuries (we want their sound samples, they want all our CDs) the use of this instrument is inflammatory, taunting and provocative. I just stabbed myself in my left eye wih a fork in disgust…

No wonder! You need more than 3 hours sleep if yu're going to delve this deeply

Great topic, if only for John Manning's and bgas's avatars in succession...

The song Problem Child is no masterpiece, but I think its aged far better than the movie with which it was associated. 

I was ten was Problem Child was released, and I loved it.  Caught it on basic cable a few years ago, and wow, what a dumpster fire of a movie.  And to think, they made two more of them!!! 

[Rentatris]

What is bad about that Problem Child video exactly? Great Suff....

Unfortunately true. The outbreak of hate when No Pier Pressure was too much for me. It spoiled the whole fun of the board and even part of the enjoyment of listening to the Beach Boys' music for me. And every time I do come here all threads are tainted with SmileBrian's and OSD's obsessive mike-hate crap. As I don't understand why these two brainless trolls are not banned by the moderators, I'm off. Bye, sensible guys! I might lurk sometimes. Especially the Stephen Desper thread, the only part of this forum still worthwhile.

Perfectly put, Andrew ... and this entire thread is a glaring example of why most Beach Boys fans have been perceived for decades as obsessive, angry lunatics.
