BRIAN WILSON PICKS HIS FAVOURITE SONG WRITTEN BY JOHN LENNON



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In California, USA, Brian Wilson and his band The Beach Boys popularised Surf music; meanwhile, The Beatles spearheaded a British answer to American rock music, which would burgeon and morph through the decade to bring progressive psychedelic treatments.
In 2004, Brian Wilson described how The Beatles’ 1965’s album Rubber Soul helped him shape Pet Sounds. “Rubber Soul blew my mind. I liked the way it all went together, the way it was all one thing. It was a challenge to me to do something similar. That made me want to make Pet Sounds; I didn’t want to do the same kind of music, but on the same level.”

Following the release of ‘The Little Girl I Once Knew’, John Lennon provided a glowing review of the single for Melody Maker. He wrote: “This is the greatest! Turn it up. Turn it right up. It’s GOT to be a hit. It’s the greatest record I’ve heard for weeks. It’s fantastic. I hope it will be a hit. It’s all Brian Wilson. He just uses the voices as instruments. He never tours or anything. He just sits at home thinking up fantastic arrangements out of his head. Doesn’t even read music. You keep waiting for the fabulous breaks. Great arrangement. It goes on and on with all different things. I hope it’s a hit so I can hear it all the time.

In 2015  Wilson returned the praise to John when tasked with picking out his favourite Lennon song. “My favourite Lennon song is ‘Across The Universe’,” Wilson asserted. “It had a great guitar sound. It flipped me out when I first heard it. And I thought his voice was especially good. He must have either taken some drugs or really concentrated hard because he got a very special vocal sound on that one. The other thing was the lyrics. They were so heavenly [sings the chorus] I thought they were really great. People say that song reminds them of The Beach Boys, but not to me. It’s unique.”
