What does "life in prison as a ladies' man" even mean?

Fun fact: "Surfin" was actually written as an assignment for one of Brian Wilson's high school music classes. He was given a failing grade, because he was supposed to write a classical-style piano sonata. In 2018, as recognition of his contributions to popular music, his high school retroactively changed his grade to an A.

@shawnfields2369

I don't blame you, dude/lady. Stamos is a preppy douche, like his idol, mike love. He's a "Mike Love In-Training". He also ruined one of the best songs of all time, (even though the original came out decades before I was born), (I was born in 1993), but it's still a great song, and seeing stamos using it to gain 15 minutes of fame, by stepping over poor Dennis Wilson's legacy, by turning "Forever", into a shitty karaoke version of itself, and a bad rap cover on Full House, a sitcom which I didn't think was any good in the first place. If you told me stamos was as genuinely creepy as mike love, I'd believe you. He wasn't happy enough, being close friends with mike, but to see him ruining a classic song like "Forever", makes me genuinely sick too, dude/lady. I'm sure stamos also makes everyone sick, and I'm willing to bet, he's also more than likely, also as unlikable as mike too. Someone tell john stamoa to go to hell.

Brian just pretends to look busy the first two times, but the last time they play it in front of a crowd, and he deadass talk-sings gibberish over the melody completely out of tune. Its just him saying shit like "key bla bla" to the melody of Kokomo, and they didn't edit it out. There's even a point where the rest of the band looks visibly thrown off. He's also wearing a shirt that says "California for Dukakis", an obvious middle finger to Mike Love. I hurt myself from laughing so hard. Long live the legend that is Brian Wilson

There's a fantastic video of Brian at the piano asking (I think) Al Jardine to pinch his nose, and then immediately launches into "WeLl, EaSt CoAsT gIrLs ArE hIp..." while the other guys laugh their asses off. He gives zero fucks and that's why he's a legend.

Recently I read a Rolling Stone interview with Mike Love from a few years ago. It doesn't really do anything to dispel the notion that his entire career was built around bitterness and jealousy towards Brian (even his wife thinks he's taken it too far), but there is one part that I found pretty interesting. Early on there's a paragraph or two talking about his life before the Beach Boys. He was 19, working at his dad's car dealership, and he just got his girlfriend pregnant. One particularly scathing comment pointed out out that if Mike Love never joined the Beach Boys, he probably would've had a pretty humble and decent life as a family man, and Brian Wilson would still be Brian Wilson.

As a compromise they made it the b-side to their god awful cover of Bluebirds Over The Mountain.

Fun Fact: The bar scenes in Cocktail were all filmed at The Don Jail in Toronto Ontario. The Don Jail was infamous for being the site of most of the executions of people convicted of murder in the toronto area which included a botched hanging in which the rope broke and the hangman had to climb down into the pit where he manually strangled the condemned to death with his bare hands and the last public execution in canadian history which occurred in 1898. It was also the site of the last hangings in canada which happened in december of 1964 in which an armed robber who killed his victim and a serial killer were hanged back to back and one of them was partially decapitated during the execution.

The real kicker was that this album was part of a planned multimedia franchise formed by Mike Love called Camp California. Meaning he wanted to push this shitty music onto kids (on top of exploiting the oldies). There were huge plans supposedly, including video games (that eventually came out on the Turbografx-16, one of them called Yo Bro, not a good sign), albums featuring the bear mascots for this franchise, merchandise up the wazoo, and a full-blown cartoon. Mike wanted this franchise to be a huge deal to mark the Beach Boys' revival. And thankfully, all of those plans came crashing down when this album bombed spectacularly.

I thought it was pretty good back then, but I don't remember it fondly now. I've said this before, but stamos is also a preppy douche, and also a mike love in-training. They're both unlikable, and maybe stamos has also, never not been a douche, but I'm not too sure on that. I've heard stamos is a creep, like mike love. Creeping on women, and even told someone who wanted an autograph from him, that he only gives out autographs to "pretty women", or something. Not sure if it's true. But, you never know. He may also be a racist too, I don't know... just a vibe I get from looking at Stamos's face. Like he probably hates anyone who's not a pretty and white lady. When I saw stamos performing "Forever", with the Beach Boys, I also didn't expect him to be an actual "member" of the band. But, he's basically nothing more than a mascot, and a touring member, but, like Todd said; "he's barely even a Beach Boy". He's still nothing though. And as for "Forever", just listen to the Dennis Wilson original version. Ignore Stamos's stupid bryan adams power ballad cover version, or the shitty rap cover he did on Full House. Sure, stamos doesn't sound that bad on the karaoke cover of the song, but he still sounds like a douche, despite being accompanied by actual members of the band; and playing the guitar ok, Stamos is still kind of a douche. But yeah, even at it's best, the cover of "Forever", is just that, a shit karaoke cover version of a classic song. And that's all it'll ever be, at best. At worst, it's just stamos stroking his ego, trying to be something he's not, a rock star. Sorry for the long message, I'll end it here by again saying, just listen to the Dennis Wilson version of "Forever". There's no reason not to, just like there's no reason to listen to stamos's karaoke version of it. It's garbage, and the rest of the album's garbage.

Even if they weren’t, it’s a way to eliminate competition, so to speak. Oops, can’t see Madonna or Prince? Hey! There’s always The Beach Boys.

This album coming from the same band that produced ‘Pet Sounds’ without *entirely* changing the lineup is maybe the most brain melting thing I’ve ever bore witness to

His entourage all looked like a bunch of douche canoes, to my recollection.

If I might add a correction. In the early 1970's it was Carl Wilson and the band's then-manager Jack Rieley who were the main force of the Beach Boys records and their live performance. Rieley pushed for the Beach Boys to write more socially-conscious material, which resulted in the wonderful albums Surf's Up (which, it's worth noting, includes a couple songs with environmental themes), Carl and the Passions and Holland. Carl, as live musical director, helped make the band a respected and highly regarded live act in the early 70's that played a range of material that included a couple of their older surf songs, with much more Pet Sounds era music and their more recent work. Also, Dennis Wilson was writing some of his best material during this period. It wasn't until 1974, in the aftermath of the American Graffiti film and soundtrack causing a nostalgia boom for the Beach Boys early 60's surf music, that Mike Love began to more vocally promote the idea of them capitalising on that nostalgia and play mostly their older, pre-Pet Sounds stuff. Sorry for rambling on, but I'm just an absolute nerd on Beach Boys stuff.

In grade 8, our music teacher made us create 80s style music videos to 80s songs and a group of boys did Kokomo and it was one of the funniest things I had ever seen. They went all out with the tiki theming, except what made it funny was that it was January in Canada, so they were outside in the snow in their shorts and Hawaiian shirts

I've been trying to nail down exactly why Stamos's version of "Forever" is so god awful, and I think I figured it out: The original song is very low key and sensitive. The lyrics aren't exactly mind-blowing, but there's a heart-breaking sincerity to them that's impossible to ignore. Dennis Wilson's voice is very quiet and remote, like the end of a movie where the quiet nerdy kid gets to pour his heart out to his love interest. There's real emotion behind it. Stamos's version, on the other hand, is a bloated piece of early 90s adult contemporary garbage that even Bryan Adams would consider 'too cheesy'. It comes off as a completely insincere piece of vanity fluff that stomps all over the things that made the original good.

By the 1990s, they would've gone power pop Jellyfish-style and in the 2000s incorporated more neo-psych qualities and hire Panda Bear from Animal Collective as producer.
