Fun fact: "Surfin" was actually written as an assignment for one of Brian Wilson's high school music classes. He was given a failing grade, because he was supposed to write a classical-style piano sonata. In 2018, as recognition of his contributions to popular music, his high school retroactively changed his grade to an A.

The commercial peak for the industry was in 1999 when something like $15 billion in CDs were sold according to Wikipedia which is crazy because that was pretty much the inflection point when Napster took off. I mean I believe it. When I was a teenager I spent every dollar I had buying CDs every weekend. I'd buy an album just because I heard one song on MTV or even just liked the cover art.

I don't blame you, dude/lady. Stamos is a preppy douche, like his idol, mike love. He's a "Mike Love In-Training". He also ruined one of the best songs of all time, (even though the original came out decades before I was born), (I was born in 1993), but it's still a great song, and seeing stamos using it to gain 15 minutes of fame, by stepping over poor Dennis Wilson's legacy, by turning "Forever", into a shitty karaoke version of itself, and a bad rap cover on Full House, a sitcom which I didn't think was any good in the first place. If you told me stamos was as genuinely creepy as mike love, I'd believe you. He wasn't happy enough, being close friends with mike, but to see him ruining a classic song like "Forever", makes me genuinely sick too, dude/lady. I'm sure stamos also makes everyone sick, and I'm willing to bet, he's also more than likely, also as unlikable as mike too. Someone tell john stamoa to go to hell.

So Todd inspired me to rewatch a Beach Boys episode of Full House, which is the first time I've watched an episode of Full House since I was a kid. Brian Wilson looks as miserable as you might expect, probably because they play Kokomo three different times. Brian just pretends to look busy the first two times, but the last time they play it in front of a crowd, and he deadass talk-sings gibberish over the melody completely out of tune. Its just him saying shit like "key bla bla" to the melody of Kokomo, and they didn't edit it out. There's even a point where the rest of the band looks visibly thrown off. He's also wearing a shirt that says "California for Dukakis", an obvious middle finger to Mike Love. I hurt myself from laughing so hard. Long live the legend that is Brian Wilson

It was also the site of the last hangings in canada which happened in december of 1964 in which an armed robber who killed his victim and a serial killer were hanged back to back and one of them was partially decapitated during the execution.

But then you look at how defining lushly orchestrated harmonies were for Queen and realize that when they scrapped them for News of the World the result was anything but a trainwreckord by any measure. In fact it combines the lack of harmonies with CCRs method of trainwreckording in that it has more creative input from the bass player and the drummer and more lead vocals not sung by the usual lead vocalist.

Recently I read a Rolling Stone interview with Mike Love from a few years ago. It doesn't really do anything to dispel the notion that his entire career was built around bitterness and jealousy towards Brian (even his wife thinks he's taken it too far), but there is one part that I found pretty interesting. Early on there's a paragraph or two talking about his life before the Beach Boys. He was 19, working at his dad's car dealership, and he just got his girlfriend pregnant. One particularly scathing comment pointed out out that if Mike Love never joined the Beach Boys, he probably would've had a pretty humble and decent life as a family man, and Brian Wilson would still be Brian Wilson.

@shawnfields23694 жыл бұрын
@@DStecks Yeah, I know, right? By stamos years, I also thought it was a synonym for the late 80's/early 90's too, dude. And although I grew up watching Full House, reruns, because I wasn't born when Full House was new on tv, I was born in 1993, specifically, September 15th, 1993. So I just saw the reruns. I thought it was pretty good back then, but I don't remember it fondly now. I've said this before, but stamos is also a preppy douche, and also a mike love in-training. They're both unlikable, and maybe stamos has also, never not been a douche, but I'm not too sure on that. I've heard stamos is a creep, like mike love. Creeping on women, and even told someone who wanted an autograph from him, that he only gives out autographs to "pretty women", or something. Not sure if it's true. But, you never know. He may also be a racist too, I don't know... just a vibe I get from looking at Stamos's face. Like he probably hates anyone who's not a pretty and white lady. When I saw stamos performing "Forever", with the Beach Boys, I also didn't expect him to be an actual "member" of the band. But, he's basically nothing more than a mascot, and a touring member, but, like Todd said; "he's barely even a Beach Boy". He's still nothing though. And as for "Forever", just listen to the Dennis Wilson original version. Ignore Stamos's stupid bryan adams power ballad cover version, or the shitty rap cover he did on Full House. Sure, stamos doesn't sound that bad on the karaoke cover of the song, but he still sounds like a douche, despite being accompanied by actual members of the band; and playing the guitar ok, Stamos is still kind of a douche. But yeah, even at it's best, the cover of "Forever", is just that, a shit karaoke cover version of a classic song. And that's all it'll ever be, at best. At worst, it's just stamos stroking his ego, trying to be something he's not, a rock star. Sorry for the long message, I'll end it here by again saying, just listen to the Dennis Wilson version of "Forever". There's no reason not to, just like there's no reason to listen to stamos's karaoke version of it. It's garbage, and the rest of the album's garbage.

Mike wanted this franchise to be a huge deal to mark the Beach Boys' revival. And thankfully, all of those plans came crashing down when this album bombed spectacularly.

Dee Snider of Twisted Sister managed to get an angry look from Mr, Boring Future VP Al Gore himself during his testimony. During his questioning gore asked snider about the name of the band's fanclub which annoyed snider before gore brought up the lead single of their album Under The Blade and asked snider to explain to him how a song about sado masochistic sex could be appropriate for children. Snider got really annoyed and explained that the song was about their guitarist fearing being sedated for a throat operation and then accused tipper of "having a dirty mind" to al's face which resulted in al gore trying to intimidate him with a "death stare" before someone else stepped in and asked another stupid question.

This is why I always had mad respect for John Denver. His music may be considered soft rock, he worked with The Muppets AND George Burns in the 70s, but he was a badass telling Tipper Gore and her fellow Stepford Wives that a stupid warning label is censorship. R.I.P. John Denver

Honestly, yeah. He wrote a pretty decent psychedelic song for them called Never Learn Not To Love, from their 20/20 record. Dennis Wilson gave him $200,000 worth of stuff in exchange for the rights to the track, hoping to make it a hit, but the record label refused to issue it as a single. As a compromise they made it the b-side to their god awful cover of Bluebirds Over The Mountain.

If I might add a correction. In the early 1970's it was Carl Wilson and the band's then-manager Jack Rieley who were the main force of the Beach Boys records and their live performance. Rieley pushed for the Beach Boys to write more socially-conscious material, which resulted in the wonderful albums Surf's Up (which, it's worth noting, includes a couple songs with environmental themes), Carl and the Passions and Holland. Carl, as live musical director, helped make the band a respected and highly regarded live act in the early 70's that played a range of material that included a couple of their older surf songs, with much more Pet Sounds era music and their more recent work. Also, Dennis Wilson was writing some of his best material during this period. It wasn't until 1974, in the aftermath of the American Graffiti film and soundtrack causing a nostalgia boom for the Beach Boys early 60's surf music, that Mike Love began to more vocally promote the idea of them capitalising on that nostalgia and play mostly their older, pre-Pet Sounds stuff. Sorry for rambling on, but I'm just an absolute nerd on Beach Boys stuff.

The Beach Boys have a pretty unique story, and Love's role is a big part of it. It isn't unusual for frontmen to have huge egos, believing that their status makes them the only important member, and it also isn't too uncommon for lesser talented members of the band to resent the member(s) who become critical darlings; both of these are common reasons for bands to start collapsing in on themselves. However, BB has an interesting case where the untalented member was also the egotistical frontman, leading to a truly toxic combination of resentment, pettiness and selfishness. You can tell Love one one level despises the Wilsons and Pet Sounds because they ruined his status as the cool guy with the band, but on the other he can't downright condemn them because they're the reason the band gets critical love and most of its latter day fandom. So instead he's this lame figure who takes credit and is constantly rewriting history to stress how important he was while bullying everybody else.

The Beach Boys will remain to be one of the most polarizing acts of the last century, Mike Love stood in the way of The Beach Boys making a sonic jump bigger than The Beatles post Rubber Soul records with Smile, it is great to see Brian Wilson receive the credit he deserves after all these years.

Me: Ummm The Beach Boys, I vaguely remember the name. What was their deal? “John Stamos” ...what? “Do the Bartman” What? “Charles Manson” *WHAT?*

I feel you, I had no idea about the whole Baywatch music video, so when Todd first broke it out at the intro, my reaction was several "What the fuck?!"

@@artemiswolf4508 Dennis Wilson covered Mansons song "Cease To Exist" with the Beach Boys, but changed a few of the lyrics (it's not AS dark as I expected from a song by fucking Charles Manson but it's still much darker than a BB tune), and that REALLY rubbed Manson the wrong way so he broke into Dennis's house, pointed a .45 at him, and threatened to kidnap his son you know, as one does

Everybody LOVES to remember the 90s like it was all grunge/Nirvana and then it turned into legendary gangsta rap as soon as Cobain died. But lots of people forget about the 'shiny pants, MTV, U2' side of the 90s that a lot of people dipped into

Honestly, U2's work in the 90's (Achtung Baby, Zooropa, the ZooTV tour) is arguably the best stuff they've ever made. Bono going through his post-Rattle & Hum identity crisis and completely satyrizing himself through his "personas" is arguably the only time in history he was actually kinda cool, and, when they tried to tackle some real-world issues, they dropped the messiah complex and dealt with some smaller-scale stuff (talking about post-Iron Curtain Europe in "Zooropa"), and, for the first time in forever, it seemed like the band *actually* had something meaningful to say. Shame that "Pop" came along and resoundingly took a massive shit on ALL of that newfound identity, though.

And once Biggie and Tupac died, dance pop became the biggest thing on Earth. This is a big reason why I'm not in love with the '90s as a lot of people are. The decade suffers from a very inconsistent identity. Like the '50s-'80s all felt very cohesive and distinctive as time periods. The '90s is all over the place.
