Are you sure it was about him and the context was definitely seriously insulting him? Pretty sure he's always respected the Beach Boys. Would it have been on GD's twitter? I can't remember for sure what social media he was posting on at that time but if it was twitter should be able to find it. If it was Instagram probably not as his posts were deleted a few years ago But also because he criticised someone doesn't mean he didn't love their music, it's clear he'd be a Beach Boys fan and influenced by them. Plus he recorded this cover several years ago so it isn't "trying to act like he loved people after they died" either way. Edit: Psy thing was on his Instagram so if he said it was probably there. I'm trying to check the old GD Instagram thread but it takes forever to load Edit again: oh the link to the pre-2014 thread doesn't work so maybe it no longer exists . That thread would be the best bet to find it

I thought it was an accepted fact that Brian Wilson was “fucking nuts”, maybe not always expressed that way though 😂. I like Billie’s cover but was never a Beach Boys fan, I like this better as it feels more organic to me. Didn’t like their silky smooth type of sound.

People can be fans of someone and not like an act plus it’s not like Billie wrote out a statement acting like they were friends or anything

i honestly feel like they might do this cover (or at least tease it) at Download/sometime in the future

Solid cover! It sounds like the drums are programmed and pat of the more subtle harmonies aren’t dialed in yet, but would have been a fun Saviors deluxe inclusion! Go Billie Joe!

You have to remember what state he was in at the time of the making of the Trilogy with his drinking problem, which came to a head at the iHeart Radio thing!!

I’d be curious to know more about the context of this?

Leaves a bad taste in my mouth because I vividly remember him calling Brian “fucking nuts” on social media accompanied with an unflattering photo. Maybe around when the trilogy came out. Same time when He attacked the Gangnam style guy. I hate when people try and act like they loved people after they die…

i think the only reason why this wasnt a bonus on No Fun Mondays is due to it not being an 80s song

I'd love it if he made this a bonus to No Fun Mondays.

Don’t stop there! The rest of Pet Sounds is amazing (especially the stereo mixes) and they have a lot of other overlooked great albums after that like Sunflower, Friends, Smile, Smiley Smile, wild honey, surfs up, 20/20, Holland, The Beach Boys today, all summer long and more!

For those who want a download of the cover

I didn't know until after I posted, lol that makes sense now RIP Brian Wilson! Will listen to "God Only Knows" today in honor of the man!

Woow i love itttt wow... I didn't know until I read this . Rest in peace, Brian

God rest ya, Brian.

Brian Wilson’s passing has me pretty emotional today. Any band that plays with vocal harmony has been influenced by The Beach Boys and Green Day is no exception. Finally having this makes me feel the tiniest bit better. Does anybody know how to save this for download?

RIP Brian. Beach boys are the GOAT

Oh wow! He teased this years ago, glad he’s finally released it

SO good! What do yall think? I love that he just drops it on insta. Billie's Post

Thank you

I can’t find that one but there is this photo https://imgur.com/a/x2ZZMsW I actually can’t tell if it is the download dog as it’s too small but looks like it could be
