• Omar from NhI don’t believe the Charles Manson statement here is at all accurate. This song was written and recorded YEARS before Dennis began interacting with Manson. The song in question Manson claimed was stolen was called “Cease to Exist” which The Beach Boys allegedly used and titled “Never Learn Not to Love.”
• Jennifur Sun from RamonaA lot of us felt the same way Brian. Wonder who did that pretty sound that sounds like a Harp?
• Dan from IdahoThis song was used to great effect in the movie "We Need to Talk About Kevin" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1242460). It's quite an intense drama.
• Sabrina from Corvallis, OrSuch purity and innocence in this song. I could completely identify with the lyrics because when I was a teenager (and even today) my room was my sanctuary...a place to get away from the craziness of the world as it were. I dig the original but there's a also a nice instrumental rendition on the rockabye baby lullaby CD of Beach Boys music.
• Stormy from Kokomo, InThis song brings back my memories of when I was in the 8th grade and we had "sock hops" at the Kokomo Y.M.C.A. This was always a great slow dance and then we would always sneak off to the handball courts to "make out" with our girlfriends! God! Youth was great!
• John from Tiptonville, Tnin my room is my all time favorite song.
• Asef from Silkeborg, DenmarkOne of my favorites. A very sensitive song which almost makes me cry. This song and "The warmth of the sun" are two excellent ballads from the boys.
• John from Millersville, MdAweaomw song. Not my favorite from the Boys, as they have numerous absolutely genius compositions, but this song certainly displays their sheer talent. Excellent harmony, as always. One song that stands out as maybe having better composition is Heroes and Villains.
• Charlie from Cape Girardeau, MoThis song shows Brian Wilson's genius not just as a composer but as an arranger also. Can't think of any other song before or since that starts a line with a melody, then two part harmony, then three part harmony, all in the same line. Brilliant and hauntingly beautiful.
• Aiedail from Carnation, Wathis song is awsome
• Martin from Paisley, ScotlandThis is my mum's favourite song ever. Sadly, anytime she's been at one of Brian's concerts, he'd never played it. Aww, shame.
• Erik from Lund, SwedenDavid Crosby (of Byrds and CSN&Y fame) has stated that when he first heard this, he literally "gave up", stating that he then realised he could never produce something this good.
