I was against the baby boomer canonization of Brian Wilson, but it's been like 3-4 weeks since J so thoughtfully took us to the biopic "Love and Mercy", which is amazing, and goddamn, all I have to do is think of it. Is there no more timeless melody than this? There's just something about it. It's glorious and uplifting and yet slightly unresolved. The kid hit it out of the park. So canonize away. He deserves it.

Agreed! I played God Only Knows for a friend the other night.

And, just because on account of because it perfectly came up as the next track on the CD in my car at just the perfect moment for it to come up, without me having a clue it was coming...this has been on my mind:

God only knows= what a great tune.

When the Beach Boys were all over the radio, I always welcomed their songs, usually humming along. I figured it was because they weren't whining about true loves hit by a train or teenage angst... plus they had so many car related songs.

Later, when I started hanging with musicians, I began to understand why they were so ear worm worthy, and how some were so ground breaking they were teaching the Beatles, et al, their trade.

A great parody/tribute to the Beach Boys where drag racing strollers take the place of cars.

Good grief.

That's the worst Jonathon Coulton song I've ever heard.

It was great.

As someone who drove two different strollers for a total of about 5 years I can attest to the accuracy.

Forever in my head! So catchy.
