This is such a fun song! 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", "Sloop John B.", "Fun Fun Fun", "Little Deuce Coupe", "God Only Knows", "In My Room", "Good Vibrations" etc.

In 1988 the Beach Boys set an all-time record: Longest Dry Spell between #1 hits. This was their first #1 since "Good Vibrations" back in 1966... twenty-two years between #1's. I believe that record still stands.

Hi Sarah - true story - my daughter was in the 9th grade, the geography teacher asked the students which Caribbean islands etc. they knew and could name. The result was more or less. Bahamas, Montigo, Aruba, Jamaika and so on. When no one else answered, my daughter stood up and named the island of Kokomo, knowing full well that this island doesn't exist. The teacher was astonished at first, then he laughed, and wanted to know why she knew this island. My daughter told me about our Sunday music quiz that we listen to at breakfast. Since I'm an absolute music freak, my daughters were tortured with my music on these Sundays (LOL) The other students were all totally surprised - my daughter told even more - the atmosphere was great. The teacher was pleased with the spontaneity and knowledge of the music they heard, there was a lot of discussion about it and my daughter ultimately received the top grade of 1 from the teacher.
