    Thanks for GETTING it....this song is a masterpiece. I read that the Beatles, after listening to Pet Sounds the first time, were completely dazzled by the album. They GOT it. Brian Wilson was a genius; Glen Campbell said Brian was the best there ever was in the studio. Even the Wrecking Crew GOT it. When I see people on reacting.....and who don't get it, I am sad for them. Anyway, thanks for reminding me how great it is.

    These guys knew how to reach the imaginations of young men through song. Be it surfing, hotrods, young love, or any of the urges that are common to young men, the Beach Boys brought it to the surface in every song they recorded.
    As for my favorites, I always liked their songs about cars. Little Deuce Coupe gives one an idea of what it's like to blast off in a car with an engine too powerful for its chassis.

    Lyrically this love song has a perfect word combination to draw your full attention. The harp like 12 stringed mando-guitar placed perfectly in the start... magic. The horn section so groovy.

    Kids out there, don't ever wish you were older, it isn't so great. There is always something that needs to get done, bills to worry about paying, and you never have the time off to have fun like when we were younger, and then there's the graying hair and aching body when the weather changes. Enjoy every minute of your life and the music. I don't think this is their greatest song Harry but it is one of their upper tier songs. I grew up with my Mom playing the Beach Boys and the Bee Gees a lot of the time for me to learn to dance to and to just enjoy.

    In an interview Paul McCartney referred to those bass tones as well and said them to be bass scale harmonicas. Beatles used them on "Sgt. Pepper's...." album as well, taking the idea from "Pet Sounds" album.
    There is a documentary done on The Wrecking Crew, of the same name from 2008. It also tells how the group eventually disbanded. The bands demanded contracts allowing themselves to perform since they were also composing the songs by then and performing them live. According to it Crosby, Stills & Nash was one of the first groups specifically putting it to the contract.

    I grew up with The Beach Boy's music & had a lot of their records. Brian Wilson was the genius songwriter of the group. They span many decades but I love their early stuff from the 60's-70's. Their music conveys such happy innocent days of youth (surfing, cars, romance). They had tons of hits such as "Surfin' U.S.A.", "Surfin' Safari", "I Get Around", "California Girls", "Help Me, Rhonda", "Barbara Ann", "Fun Fun Fun", "Little Deuce Coupe", "In My Room" etc.

    This is a wonderful example of the cosmic Law of octaves
    The intention of the doing will always become the exact opposite of the intended doing
    The intention of Brian was to break the repetitive patterns found in music around sex based on sex
    The actual musical intention (its math's not opinion its a formula and therefore you can create the exact opposite to the formula(Led Zeppelin did this with Stairway to heaven, they broke the don't speed up rule, and speeded up)) was to cause cortex Failure on LSD for a very specific kind of person
    So to then turn it into a repeating pattern is the cosmic law of Octaves of DOING
    everything is a spectrum "Better" does not exist,
    you just pretend it does and never see the other aspect of the spectrum
    Or the other outcome of your doing

      Well, I'm only 1:30 in, but "Wouldn't It Be Nice" if we had the landmark Beach Boy vocals in where they're supposed to be?!? - So, Harri-B, let me get this right - you have to IGNORE the creative force & landmark BB vocals, in order to pay tribute to the studio musicians hired by Brian Wilson to record his song? - As GREAT as all those musicians were - THAT seems counterproductive - & 5 minutes in, it DON'T make any more sense the way this was promoted as "BEACH BOYS Wouldn't it be nice Reaction" - Not, a "wrecking crew/studio musicians REACTION to a Beach Boy song" - & UNBELIEVABLE, at 5:50 mark you did it AGAIN - Instrumentals, no vocals. That's it, I'm tapping out - VERY disappointing presentation & reaction -- & I AM a fan, HarriB - but this seems sort of, if not false, at least ill-thought out advertising your product. PS - if I knew how to private message you, I would have - but being of that Boomer generation that saw these guys and a lot of the others of that era live, I'm clueless.
