The Beach Boys (L-R: Brian Wilson, David Marks, Mike Love, Dennis Wilson, Carl Wilson) with two very lucky girls!
I went to see The Beach Boys on July 3, so I thought I would put up a little review with some pictures and such for my followers who are also Beach Boys fans! Long story short: go see them if you can!
I’m actually really excited, which may be kind of dorky! Has anyone else seen them?
The Beach Boys - I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times
Sometimes I feel very sad.
This was the song planning while Roger was straight trippin’ on Mad Men Sunday night. It’s one of my favourite Beach Boys songs - so melancholic!
The lyrics were written by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher about the ruminations on romance and the loss of innocence involved in growing up. Wilson stated in his autobiography that I Just Wasn’t Made for These Times was telling a self-portrait of his troubled psyche and that he was too advanced for his time. Wilson stated “It’s about a guy who was crying out because he thought he was too advanced, and that he’d eventually have to leave people behind.”

Song of the Day: I’m Waiting for the Day by The Beach Boys. One of my favorite songs off of what is my favorite album right now. I don’t know how in the world Brian Wilson composed this. The flute section kills.
If anyone has not listened to the album Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys, do it right away!! It is a wonderful album and you will not regret listening!

Gotta love a young and thin Brian Wilson! Haha :)
