The music I have created, along with the other Beach Boys, has taken me all over the world. For these past 50 years, I guess you could say, 'I get around.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm the lead singer of the Beach Boys and an ambassador of this amazing music that touched a generation.
We've had hassles, ups and downs, ins and outs, failures and triumphs. We're human beings, and we're not perfect. And we're mortal. But the Beach Boys is musically a tremendous body of work that transcends individuality and time and national boundaries.
I think the Beach Boys' legacy is 'Fun, Fun, Fun,' you know? We're calling our next tour '50 Years of Fun, Fun, Fun.' By and large, the Beach Boys' legacy is about incredibly positivity. We've traveled around the world and uplifted the spirits of hundreds of millions of people. Our sound is one of the most recognizable in all of music.
Music has always been around with me.
My music is my way to rearrange the world according to my own hopes.
I think I got turned onto The Beach Boys for the first time with the 'Endless Summer' album in 1974. The power of that music still, to this day, bypasses the brain and goes straight to the heart. You don't have to think about it; it's something that you feel.
I was a beach boy, and I believe I learned my songs from the birds of the Brazilian forest.
There's the historical part of The Beach Boys' music; it's pretty incredible, pretty vast and pretty varied too.
My best songs come from a place outside myself.
Certainly, the Beach Boys and the early Beatles records were a huge influence on me lyrically.
