It's actually amazing to me how well-produced this song is. It has so many little things going on but it never once sounds cluttered, never loses that breezy feeling.

[@patrickehutt]

9/11 to me was a turning point in society. What we knew as "90s" culture came to an end, and the "00s" began (although it technically began on 1/1/00. )

as a kid in 00's I had to face dark times but in my few spaces of relaxation I had, this was definitely a song I enjoyed which gave me somehow a lot of hope back then

[@manuelorozco7760]

I know what you mean. In 2003, i went through a traumatic 3rd grade with an abusive teacher. I ran off campus once or twice walking in the surrounding neighborhood. My mom put the school district to court and I took a few months away did tutoring in Orange County. Then I transferred to another school in Lakewood a few weeks before school got out for Christmas. Hearing music like this made being a kid in the earl 00’s easier.

[@shrekfan92]

I heard this playing in a store today. I hadn't heard it since 2003 and, I could not for the life of me remember the words. I listened to it a few times in my childhood and developed an attachment to it. Rather good to hear it again, after so long.

[@manuelorozco7760]

It’s been a while since I heard it myself

[@jendowden]

I remember this playing on the radio after I spent the day at the beach a few years ago, it’s the perfect song to listen to while going to the beach

[@andrewb6194]

When I was in elementary school. This song played ALL THE TIME!! When they said “soak up the sun” I thought they were going to try to get rid of the sun. And as a science geek, I knew that meant bad news. So I always got mad and tried to say something. Ah, good times. Now as a freshman in college, I look back at things like this and chuckle!!

[@Anna-jf2eh]

Thanks for the great info. This right here is what a hit record sounds like. I can't help but wonder if they weren't in a Beach Boys zone when they put it together in the studio. I'd love to hear their circa '65 take on this and I'd love to hear Brian Wilson's opinion of it. I'd bet he loved it too.
