The very worst Beach Boys related 'song' ever released

[bluesno1fann]

I find it unbelievable that Sumahama is barely mentioned here.

If you ignore the entire SIP album, then Sumahama is the BB's worst song, hands down

In fact, Sumahama is so fucking awful that it makes the long version of the disco Here Comes The Night look like Good Vibrations or Pet Sounds!

There is one (AND ONLY ONE) Beach Boys song I can't stand.

That song was written by Brian Wilson.

It is called.

Beaches In Mind.

Thank you for reading.

[Alan Smith]

I think we all can agree

BIM is bad, bad, bad.

I think The Simpsons need to have Barney Gumble do a BB cover called “Belches in Mind”.

Hmm...

Its a stupid song, but atleast the production isn't super cheesy. I like the slick sound of the album.

My vote would probably go to Mike's disco/instrumental version of California Girls.

Or how about Mike & Celebration version of "Gettin Hungry"

(I don't think it's too bad actually  )

Oh yeah, that one is really funny too 

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

I just listened to side 1 of Still Cruisin!

My God, "In My Car" is AWFUL!!!!!

[bgas]

There is no such thing as an  AWFUL Beach Boys song

True, but in the spirit of the thread: it comes damn close...

Disagree. I think it kinda rocks, for what it is.

[Rotat]

"In My Car" is too oddball to be awful to me. At least it isn't a completely generic 80s song like "Passing Friend" or "Happy Endings".

At least for nuts like us...

One time I got a new job where I had to spend a lot of time on the road. So, I decided to re-do all of my personal Beach Boys' comps and burn all new CD's for the car. I started with The Beach Boys CD 1 which contained the greatest hits, in my opinion of course. The Beach Boys CD 2 was a step down, but just barely, actually microscopic. You get the picture. The Beach Boys CD 3 was still great but not as great.

Eventually I got to The Beach Boys CD 9 which was comprised of the remaining songs, the ones which didn't make the cut on the first 8. And, you know what? It was still a good listen, very enjoyable, and still had some merit. EVERY song had something that redeemed it, even, as has been mentioned, maybe just the lead vocal. I wouldn't recommend that CD 9 to a non-BB fan, but it wasn't awful either.

For some reason: STILL STILL STILL: The KTSA/BB's 85 twofer is always in heavy rotation while driving.....

I like Happy Endings.
But it's yet another example of sh*t lyrics, great music (and singing for that matter)

I just wanted to take advantage of this situation and post this again...

Weird that Brian had a period of being a guy who actually stood up and sang while holding a microphone, stomping around the stage with a crazed look.  And sigh, the falsetto sounds pretty good.

I really do like the chorus of this song tho..
