bate of the year right here oh boy

I'm Waiting For The Day is one of the creepiest songs I have ever heads

>>68537121
Tony Asher didn't know what to say because he "couldn't relate to it". Still the best song on the album, lyrics aside.

>>68537121
Pet Sounds has the best lyrics

They are sad, yeah, but not pretentious in any way

Kinda sad that Asher didn't stay for Smile

i love the simplicity of it desu
the "sometimes i feel very sad" isn't the only thing thats being said, its just the base, theres multiple other things being sung over it
in my mind "sometimes i feel very sad" is what brian is vocalizing and the other voices are all the other thoughts going through his head

>Kinda sad that Asher didn't stay for Smile
kys pls

>>68537493
ehh I don't think his lyrics would've fit smile

van dykes words align perfectly with the grandiose arrangements of smile

Serious question here how much involvement and lyrical writing did Brian have on Pet Sounds and smile

You are like a little baby.

Poor Brian just couldn't find nuthin' to put his heart and soul into when he wrote the song. You should feel pity not cringy.

Not much. He wrote the music and had either Asher write the lyrics on Pet Sounds or Parks on SMiLE

it's actually great
just realize it's great because of it's melodies/harmonies, don't expect anything flashy
if you dont like it after your first listen, revisit it every once in a while
take your time with it and it will eventually be one of your favorites, i promise

/mu/ loves it because /mu/ is made up of young, lonely white males who resonate with the melancholy nature of Brian "Autism" Wilson's music

But the instrumental of this song is one of the greatest in pop music history.

Well, you did it, faggots. Love and Mercy comes out and every millennial white boy feelsfag fuckwit comes along and dickrides this album because muh sad lyrics and muh tortured artist without actually understanding the immeasurable harmonic complexity nor the sophistication of the vocal or instrumental arrangements, and now this is one of those albums people trash on because you dipshits inundate the board every single hour on the hour with the most inane, cursory praise the likes of which not even this trash board has previously been able to match. Now I can't talk to the four people on this board who know anything about music theory about this album without some jaded, mouthbreathing degenerates trying to derail the discussion.

For the love of christ, PLEASE just go make some infested plague ship of a containment thread called "surface level appreciation of Pet Sounds general" and worm your way over there and stay there, you inbred buttfuck whorespawn. I IMPLORE you: act like the subhuman parasites of society you are and quietly flock to the hovel in which you fucks may waste your life without bothering others. Have the decency to do that, rather than let the manic obsession of an unrealistic impression of "muh troubled artist ;_;" clog every struggling channel of your mental processes, leading to your fervent and unrelenting shilling of this album, which in turn is only making people turn against it like the sweaty kneejerk contrarians they are.

I swear to god I want to find you uneducated shills in real life so badly. I doubt I'd even punch you or anything. I'd see your faces, I'd see the empty mechanics of your eyes and know that your animalistic, fevered middle finger to god of a brain deserved nothing more than pity. I'd walk away knowing that to beat the shit out of you would do nothing.

Just do me a favor and fuck off. I'm sick of this album getting the ITAOTS treatment.

this is what makes brians music so great
even after years of listening to it theres still little pieces you havent picked up on
keeps it interesting even when its your 100th time listening

I saw Brian Wilson live and he changed the lyrics to "sometimes life is very sad". I freaked out for a moment and thought I had been listening to the wrong lyrics the whole time.

>>68539222
damn...

>>68539492
Is Brian laying down, cause this image is confusing me?

>>68542552
>tfw he changed sloop john b "worst trip" to "best trip" on tour

>>68542679
yea. theres a bunch over pet sounds records on the floor and hes lying in the middle

>>68542693
i feel like that almost makes it a funnier line in some ways

>>68539222
succ

>>68537202
it's a song in two perspectives, the harsher voice in the verses are the abusive ex, the softer chorus voice is the new man (e.g. brian) who just wants to care for her

>>68544524
Where do you get this idea from? Its a song about a guy trying to help a girl take down her walls. And theres no mention of abuse...just that she was in a past relationship she still thinks about. Hence Brian is waiting for the day she csn love again so she can give him a chance, or so he hopes.

>>68545196
I suppose I hear his shift in voice, as in in the first verse he sings softly, next he has a much harsher tone. maybe I'm just inventing something for myself, but the tone seems so different between "I'm waiting for the day" and "I'll make you feel glad/that you belong to me" in a completely posessive manner.

>>68544524
Are you sure you arent thinking of Today Love Is Here?

>>68545213
I think hes just really enthusiastic about proving to her he feels he knows whats best and can promise her happiness. Ots not meant to be aggressive, but reassuring.

>>68545224
Nah, do you not hear the difference between:

I came along when he broke your heart
That's when you needed someone
To help forget about him
I gave you love with a brand new start
That's what you needed the most
To set your broken heart free
I know you cried, and you felt blue
But when I could I gave strength to you
I'm waiting for the day when you can love again

And

I kissed your lips
And when your face looked sad
It made me think about him
And that you still loved him so
But you know that pretty soon
I made you feel glad
That you belonged to me
And love began to show

>sometimes I feel very sad
>people I know don't wanna be where I'm at
>que sera sera
>I can put my heart and soul into

The 4 layer harmony is incredible

>>68545515
>que sera sera

it's un dia sere

>>68545545
never even heard that part lol

>>68547301
It's pretty hard to hear in the final mix but if you listen to the sessions or alternate takes you can hear it better. It's the falsetto vocals in the back of the mix during that part

>>68545255
He literally says in the first line I came along when he broke your heart. Where are you getting the notion its two different guys? Its one guy speaking to a girl who was in a bad relationship that has ended, yet she still has feelings for the guy. She isnt ready to love again because shes thinking of the past, hence the second verse. He kisses her lips and tries reassuring her that she is the only one for him and that this relationship and himself are completely separate and new from her last.

>>68540396
Mike you are just jealous no one wanted to make a film about you.

But he's saying he was born too soon, not too late. It's the exact opposite of "le wrong generation" idiots who wish they had been born decades ago.

>>68540781
When you come back to this tune (or just any tune that you love) you notice the smallest details in the instrumentation.

Me and a friend tried to transcribe the vocal acapella for shits and giggles. Ended up being insanely hard listening to every individual voice.
anyway i think youll appreciate this as well.

>don't expect anything flashy
Nigga it's got some of the best instrumentation ever. It's incredibly flashy. Unless you're just talking about the lack of effects.

>>68549087
i'm just saying if i used the word "mindblowing" then people tend to expect more of a psychedelic/jimi hendrix/pink floyd type of thing
it's not a shocking album, its just amazingly good

>>68549189
It's shocking if you pay attention to chord progressions, but that's more subtle I suppose. Plus, there are definitely some surprises like the fake out ending in You Still Believe in Me, the Hawaiian slide in Let's Go Away For A While, and the interlude in Here Today, but I guess I see where you're coming from. If you're looking for rapid changes to shock yourself, SMiLE would probably be closer.

>>68549339
exactly, smile is more of the "shocking" type of album i had in mind
its like how rubber soul is mindblowing in its own ways, but most people would only think of sgt pepper as special
