 Post subject: Beach BoysPosted: Mon Feb 28, 2005 1:02 pm 
I will now attempt to answer the question on everyone's mind: "What is the best Beach Boys song!?!?!?!?" It won't be easy. You can't just jump to conclusions on such delicate issues. That's why I have prepared a not-exactly-scientific poll. It is up to YOU, the Eisley faithful, to decide. _________________ If nobody makes you do it, it counts as fun -Hobbes |

well don't really count my vote because i only like "wouldn't it be nice" because of the scene in 50 first dates when adam sandler's character crys the song while riding his boat. my friends and i like to make fun of that scene a lot

Out of those choices, it's hard not to go with "Good Vibrations"--its arrangement is especially brilliant. However, of any Beach Boys songs, I'd have to say that "God Only Knows" is my favorite; it's definitely one of the greatest songs ever. Carl Wilson's vocals are wonderful on that one, and the harmonies during the coda are even more amazing. Brian Wilson is one of my musical heroes... |

I should have known to add that one because they used it in Boogie Nights. _________________ If nobody makes you do it, it counts as fun -Hobbes |

Not to mention that Boogie Nights came out first and is a modern classic. I stand by my choice to reference Boogie Nights. But yeah, I screwed up my poll. I will take responsibility for that. I shouldn't have put Don't Worry Baby, but I really like that one. Oh well, I just made this poll to get some discussion going. I have a feeling that Wouldn't It Be Nice would have the most votes anyway. _________________ If nobody makes you do it, it counts as fun -Hobbes |
