Vocal Coach reacts to the Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby

[@Teek4Tat]

No one sings like this anymore , beach boys were just fun & joyful and their voices & harmonies were heavenly to the ears …

[@scottmatznick3140]

Brian Wilson is literally my musical hero. He is... He is music.

[@joshuajamesmusic]

The GOAT 🐐

[@es330td]

The Beach Boys have been my favorite band for nearly 40 years because of these harmonies.

[@BrotherDan01]

@@es330td Me too...Good Vibration, God only Knows, Wouldn't it be nice and Sloop John B really taught the world what beautiful complex harmonious music sounded like. I think Paul McCartney was freaking out after he heard Good vibrations. He already declared God Only Knows a masterpiece...to have Good Vibes come so soon after...phew...on the other side of the world, John Lennon wasn't freaking out...he was getting inspiration for Strawberry fields foreever...but I still love the idea that these two bands would have fed each other ( as we know Wilson was quite impressed with the album Revolver, and felt pressured to produce something half as good!! Well, Pet sounds was superior to Revolver some may argue, but it's funny how Pet sounds was the kick in the butt the Beatles needed to do Sgt Pepper, arguably the best album of all time)

[@ronniebishop2496]

Pet Sounds also influenced the Beatles Sgt Peppers. Of course the album cover to me was more interesting than the music.

[@hbloc-ei5kf]

He certainly doesn’t get the credit he deserves, I’m a huge Phil Spector fan and I’m fascinated by producers. Brian Wilson is a genius, considering all the demons he was battling his vision was incredible. Carol Kaye (bassist on Good Vibrations) asked him when does this baseline ever work? In my head, he answered.

[@mradriankool]

When you consider Brian Wilson was deaf in one ear, his ability to write, arrange and produce the beach boys makes it even more sensational

Brian's voice in those early Beach Boy hits was epic - his brother Carl's voice was angelic, and Dennis was no slouch. Carl's voice became the groups mainstay when Brian stopped touring.

[@mvr8388]

With beach boys vocals I go to heaven everytime, so good seeing them being appreciated

[@seeuatthepeak]

Brian Wilson was actually embarrassed by his falsetto voice. It was wonderful to hear him sing. Perfect harmony with his two brothers Carl and Denis. It was rounded out with his cousin Mike Love and their childhood friend Al Jardine. Absolutely gorgeous harmony that Brian Wilson orchestrated during The Beach Boys musical career.

[@oshawaxpress]

You're right, he was embarrassed because he thought he sounded like a girl. It wasn't really falsetto though, it was definitely a genuine head voice. He was able to ascend and descend without 'throwing' his voice into the upper register.

[@luiscasso9594]

[@TonyM132]

I say you gotta stretch that to '71 because Surf's Up is just as good as Sunflower.

[@DistantLights]

Love You invented synth pop in 77, even has the gated reverb sound in Honking down the highway

[@applescruff909]

Their harmonies are transcendent. "In My Room", "You Still Believe In Me", "Til I Die", "Time to Get Alone", "Cuddle Up", and "Surf's Up" are among the many that give me chills when I listen. I've been obsessed since I was 2 years old and found my sister's Beach Boys greatest hits LP.

[@kurtjohnson4816]

Brian was a master of writing harmonies; you really should hear "God Only Knows", and "Good Vibrations". Brian and his brother Carl both had that beautifully textured upper range.

Right at the beginning of the song, when their vocal harmony first hits you, it doesn't get any better. It's harmonic perfection. The whole song. There is harmony in many of their songs, but "Don't Worry Baby" is about as close to perfection as it gets.

[@seansmith6745]

One of the things that made the Beach Boys so great was not just the fact of Brian Wilson’s genius but also the fact they grew up together singing and harmonizing.

[@lassepettersson1061]

Amazing how they did this - nearly sixty years ago, mind you. Mike on a separate microphone, the rest of the guys (including Brian) around a single mike. And then Brian singing the lead later. It's double-tracked, but that doesn't change the fact that is absolutely perfection. A true classic and one of my personal favorites.

[@mikem.5252]

Quite innovative to produce a song this way in 1964. Producers are the invisible people behind the scenes that make stars shine.

[@WavePotter]

I found your channel because i saw you'll be talking to my friend Alan from Dicodec. Glad i found it! Love the way your face lit up when Brian came in with that legendary melody. Thank you for sharing your insights on this! I had no idea about the mixed texture things with falsetto and head voice. Still way over my head. But this gives me a whole new appreciation for a song i've heard 1000 times. Just pure nostalgia. I grew up with my dad in a band that covered The Beach Boys all the time, and were always working on the harmonies. Deep emotional connection for me. Also, thanks for the advice on being relaxed. I always struggle with that. But, i'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos!

[@Rotttman]

She's so pretty and that accent gets me Everytime 😍

[@RM-iq7dk]

One of the pure genius singer, writer, producers ever. Another great one to listen to is “I Can Hear Music” or “God Only Knows”. It was interesting how the Beatles and Brian Wilson pushed each other in those early years. Pet Sounds was inspired by Brian’s admiration for Rubber Soul which then pushed the Beatles to make Sergeant Pepper. Paul’s daughter said family friends told her that her dad would play, “God Only Knows” over and over saying he wished he had written a love song that good, which is high praise from the guy who co-wrote Yesterday and Michelle.

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

R M - Paul McCartney wrote "Here, There and Everywhere" in response to Brian's "God Only Knows"... and it (like "God Only Knows") is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Paul has said that "God Only Knows" is the best love song ever made. And Brian told Paul that "Here, There and Everywhere" is his favorite love song. These two amazing singer/song writers, who were born just two days apart, have a great love/respect/appreciation for each other.

[@alisonstevens2712]

Have you heard The Beach Boys sing, Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring? or their song Our Prayer? Both are vocal harmony masterpieces

This song is a great introduction to an early classic. I think their all time harmonizing best is Sloop John B, much more intricate and interwoven vocals. From the great Pet Sounds album. You won’t regret. Good Vibrations is also a cut above this classic.

[@matthewmoyer2]

Pet Sounds is amazing musically and vocally front to back...

[@chrissessions6108]

I can't knock Sloop John B or any part of Pet Sounds, but I would humbly submit that Smile is even more artistic and vocally complex.

[@theccpisaparasite8813]

Cut above? Perhaps lyrically, but musically, no way in hell. They are THE quintessential transition group defining the progression from doo wop to straight rock n' roll.

[@donfaruolo1858]

I have such respect for you, Beth. Your musical taste proves that good music is good music, no matter what era it came from. I grew up with this music (Thank God) and it's assuring to know the music still speaks to many and spans generations. This vocal arrangement is unique to the BB's catalog because brother and drummer) Dennis provides the low bed of harmonies along with his cousin Mike Love. It's a full on 5 voice assault. Good ear!

[@marcweiss3098]

Regarding this song… Brian wrote this song for Ronnie Spector, of the Ronnettes, but then Phil Spector, her then-husband forbade her from recording it. Recently she has recorded it, and I think it would be interesting to compare the two versions.

Nice observations! I'm a BB fan from day one. In '63 and '64 (age 12 and 13) I was lucky enough to hear the BB's live before Brian quit touring. I remember hearing the older teenagers after the concert say "Did you hear that high voice guy (Brian)? He was amazing!" Their vocals were excellent without monitors or mic'd instruments using the house soundsystem. When they toured Pet Sounds, they were among the first, if not THE first to use a mic'd system and bring strings along in those early days. There are lots of a capella tracks and even some of Brian adding a couple of bars of harmony around that are well worth the time!

A fun thing to do to any early Beach Boy song, and to realize how great their harmonies work, if you have a good stereo system that truly has a "left/right fader," try turning only to the right or only the left channel on, and listen how awful it sounds in single voice, and then adjust back to the middle mix to see how truly GREAT they sound. And, since most of them were related, you also have that family harmony in there to! What a great band, and a great song!! Next time, Beth, try "Good Vibrations." MASSIVE harmony on a more complex level in that one, for sure!!

[@TonyM132]

Early Beach Boys songs were not in stereo. All of their albums through 1967 and singles through 1968 were in mono (or "Duophonic" fake stereo which was basically just a slight time delay between left and right to create an echo effect). In recent years much of the material has been remastered into true stereo mixes from the original multi-track tapes, but unless you seek that out, by far the majority of 1961-67 Beach Boys music on any physical format today was mixed in mono - same voices (and instruments) in both left and right.

Brian Wilson is notoriously. a perfectionist. That is why they were so good.

[@davebabbitt2432]

Moving harmonies always. While I’m taken with great vocal harmonies, it’s the blending and timbre of the voices that always made this group so outstanding. Harmonies created by people with shared DNA are almost always “next level”. Brian, Carl and Dennis were brothers and I believe Mike Love is a cousin. Think of some of the greatest harmony groups such as Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, the Osmonds, the Ames Brothers, the Mills Bothers, the Andrews Sisters, the Everly Brothers and so on. Voice blending like that make it very difficult to pick out parts.

Also check out the Four Freshmen (the inspiration Brian Wilson claims sent him on the quest to have full vocal group harmonies) or the Hi Los. These groups were much like jazz and pop music versions of the Beach Boys. They had spectacular sense of pitch, had challenging voice parts with inner voices moving like we hear with "Don't Worry Baby" and with the jazz groups we hear 7th chord and even 9th or 11th chords. Vocal music is great fun.
