      I think that's more because artists are often maligned as freaks rather than supported. Brian Wilson never had the right kind of support. If you look at Van Dyke Parks, on the other hand, he's an artist-philosopher-genius and has never been more stable.

That's the laziest take on the story of the beach boys and immediately when you villianize mike love you take away every aspect of their story that makes it interesting and true to human nature. If you're going to villianize mike love then you have to villianize carl, al, brian, and especially Dennis who did things that were cartoonishly evil. Or you can accept that they were all flawed humans like you and I and take it for what it is and realize there was no enemy in their story.

    @MrSpencerMcIntosh 5 лет назад +73

    The key difference here besides the joke in Walk Hard being an exaggeration is that Brian was really going for something musically intuitive. The “helicopter” sounding double cellos in Good Vibrations are not a very extreme idea on the surface of recording music, but the pulsing rhythm they introduced is quite a genius spin on the rhythm section of the song. In Walk Hard it seems that he’s more making fun of the enormous string section in “A Day In The Life” by The Beatles and other unnecessary psychedelic methods of making music that were becoming trendy at the time.

    • @Logan912

      As Brian himself said (paraphrased): "It's just an album. We can make another ones." Brian wanted everything to be as perfect as possible on this album. Mike Love wanted to do surf songs forever, while Brian was evolving as a musician, and because of him, they left all this legacy to the pop/rock culture.

    It seems to me that acting is just like playing around but making music is almost the opposite.Making music is a serious endeavour by various groups of people.It has basic rules and guidelines and it requires the people making music to have skills,experience and an aptitude for it.I think this is where musical bio-pics most often fail.Having said that I believe the movie "Love and Mercy"succeeds about 90% of the time if you can suspend you,re disbelief long enough.The scene in this clip fails and I think it,s because it,s just unbeleavable when viewed out of context.I,ve seen the movie and think,overall it works quite well for a biopic..about 90% of the time.The movie when viewed from beginning to end does work quite well,which is rare for a musical biopic.All the stereotypes are there but the movie still works.Maybe it,s because the true story it,s built on is so good.

    This clip, and I have seen L&M about 40 times, belies the known history of GV.
    At first, Tony Asher took a stab at it, but Brian didn't like his version and he and Tony, once PET SOUNDS was completed were going their separate ways.
    Brian wrote a set of lyrics, very close to what was recorded.
    Mike came up with "I'm picking up Good Vibrations, she's giving me excitations."
    That's it. Brian had already written the balance of the song.
    Mike's claim he wrote ALL the lyrics has been proven false. You can hear Brian's original lyrics on BRIAN WILSON PRESENTS SMILE and on the SMILE SESSIONS outtakes.
    Why Polhad used this version in L&M is puzzling.
