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?

wow... I didn't know until I read this :(. Rest in peace, Brian

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!

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

A music video could be cool.   Could we get a proper solo albums of originals from Billie one day?   

  And it's totally normal to have a variety of opinions on one person.   When I was watching the Coverups perform with a member of Van Halen, my mind instantly went to how Billie basically only loves one album by them and think the rest are kind of garbage.  But there they were, sharing the stage together and having a blast.   So what if you're crazy or some of your music sucks?  I'm nuts and my music sucks, but people are always wanting to hang out with me, lol.

It was his insta and it was a picture of Brian with “you’re fuckin’ nuts.” As the caption. And yes. I’m sure. Why would I say it if I wasn’t?

Post is looooong gone. Probably deleted after Joey decided to be a creep. But I’ll post the picture if I can find it. Billie was just being a prick

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.

Doesn’t mean you have to make a shitty instagram post about someone?

Because it seems strange if it was meant with actual bad intent towards a Beach Boys member of all people for no apparent reason. Can't really judge without knowing what he meant/what he was referring to, I don't know enough about Brian Wilson to know. He was sometimes rude on social media just curious why he would be in this case so wanted to find it. Not sure what Joey has to do with anything.

 

Bro I promise you, it was right as The Beach Boys were getting back together and He posted a picture with Brian and the caption “you’re fuckin’ nuts.” Why would I make that up? Why is it hard to believe he’s a prick sometimes? He attacked the Gangnam style guy for no reason either sooo…
 

Dude scrubbed his profile after it came out his son sucks. Idk what more to say about that one.
