    I was born and raised here in sunny San Diego CA. and witnessed first hand the effect
    The Beach Boys had on the culture of the beach scene in California. They basically froze in
    time the whole attitude and culture and made it their own. Their songwriting and vocals are
    phenomenal and unmatched. They have tons of great songs. Definitely worth a deep dive!

    This may not their best song musically, but still fun & iconic. Their harmonies are always to die for. I love "I Get Around", "Woudn't it Be Nice", "Fun Fun Fun", "Sloop John B", and one that most reactors don't do, "Darlin". Oh, and of course, their "Good Vibrations" really changed things up.

    I grew up with The Beach Boy's music & had a lot of their records. 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", "Help Me, Rhonda", "Barbara Ann", "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "Sloop John B.", "Fun Fun Fun", "Little Deuce Coupe", "God Only Knows", "In My Room" etc.

    This was the song in which Brian Wilson hit his stride, he was no longer making songs, he was
    making masterpieces. The blending of voice and music was unique and original. This is when Brian
    knew how good he was and how good he could be.

    The Beach Boys are a group with so many hits. This is a rabbit hole you need to keep going down. Brian Wilson, wrote the majority of the songs. He is brilliant! The harmonies of the Beach Boys is incredible. The Beatles were huge at the time that the Beach Boys came out and as the Beach Boys became successful there was a competitiveness b/w the two bands but both respected each other immensely. Each drove the other to raise their bar and write songs that took them to new places.

But even Oregon and Washington they aren't rude but they aren't friendly either.... those are just very introverted quiet people who don't like talking to other people.
    Or maybe The Beach Boys could be more specifically spending their time in the LA area and there really are a lot of beautiful people who all end up in LA and Hollywood trying to model or act. They mention the women in bikinis on the beach.... socal has the nice warmer beaches too.
