Probably heard but I am always compelled to share it:
Getting lost and confused in the harmony while trying to sing along to their songs is one of the most intimate things about my relationship to the Beach Boys songs that I can describe.
Just listening to Sunflower by the Beach Boys today for the first time and I was STRUCK!!! by how contemporary “All I Wanna Do” sounds.
Really, it’s the stuff of hypnagogic pop–almost an Ariel Pink song like “Feels Like Heaven”–but in 1970
there’s specifically an Animal Collective song everyone compares it to
probably an intentional reference (and the original Beach Boys song is def better)
omg! it really does seem so obviously an homage. I know that song dearly, so this all clicks now.

yeah it’s a very complete gimmick
I have not heard! because this is the first time I’ve ever been in a beach boys phase! I disregarded them for years bc my parents hated them and I only associated them with the scenic waterparks of aurora, ohio.
