I thought you guys were just memeing when you said this was good. Holy shit it blows Pet Sounds out of the water in every conceivable way
yeah, it's pretty good
>mfw taking a beach boys class next semester that focuses on pet sounds/smile
hopefully i'll meet a beach boys qt
>>60335296
yo, iub? i took that class last semester, probably the best class i've ever taken. andy is a great teacher. no qts in sight but gl on your quest senpai.
>>60335296
>tfw college doesn't offer any Beach Boys classes
>tfw nobody in your pleb city knows about SMiLE
>>60335643
yeah! I have some friends in the beatles class rn and they said its great, I'm really excited
>>60336811
I'm taking that next fall, my friend's in it right now and loves it.
It's certinally got the potential to be brilliant, and the MQR version (once all the stupid bits are taken out) is probably getting close to pet sounds.
However, the fact some songs (like Holiday) are missing vocals is an issue.
The Childhood Suite is 10/10, the rest of the album has amazing moments too
>>60338282
nice, I'm hyped for beach boys. what major are you?
>>60338405
I'm a comp sci major, I'm getting a minor in music because it's the easiest thing in the world. Over half of my credits are just jamming out to artists I already liked and getting a free A, it's good shit. Just curious, do you know a kid named Joseph in the Beatles class?
>>60338461
Nah, thats not who I know. I'm Informatics but have thought about doing comp sci as a minor
>>60338481
Damn, would have been hilarious if we both knew him. Nice though, that's a really good call because it'll strengthen your marketability. I think you can even get a cognate in CS rather than minor in it. I don't think it'd be that difficult either, most early CS classes are fairly digestible

>I thought you guys were just memeing when you said this was good.
Why the hell would we be memeing about one of the most famous unfinished creative works in popular music?
>>60338596
yeah I meant go for the cognate. I'm targeting business right now, gonna take A200 next semester and see how it goes but just not 100% yet, just how it be haha
>>60335296
You are gonna make a beautiful couple
You won't even have to wait to get married
Because it's legal for you now
>>60339042
SOOO YOUUUNG
CAN'T MARRY NO-ONE
>>60338931
Business too? You're shooting for the big money, fuck
also
>mfw i'm shitposting on /mu/ while in the Frank Zappa class
i dont think it's better than pet sounds but holy shit it's fantastic
>>60338403
Honestly I like that some songs are missing vocals. It makes them feel like intentionally more sleight transition pieces in between the more major compositions (Wonderful, Surf's Up, Cabinessence), which just gives those songs more impact for me.
>>60339333
What I do like about SMiLE being unfinished is that so many of the songs may never have seen the light of day, and the songs which appeared on Smiley Smile may never have ever been written.
I get what you mean about the transitions, the intro to Love to say Dada is so much better as just the ghostly, abstract harmonies, than the shite which was on the BWPS.

>beach boys class
>beatles class
what
>>60339224
yeah next semesters gonna be tough, wanted to throw in Beach Boys as a breather
>>60339731
yea, at IU Bloomington. Its a huge school so theres tons of neat music classes, theres Zappa, Dylan, Hendrix, Beatles and Beach Boys classes
>>60339116
WOULDN'T IT BE NICE IF WE WERE OLDER
THEN WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT SO LONG
>>60339795
That's exactly what I did, yeah. I brown nosed the entire class because I've been a Brian Wilson cultist since high school. Chillest class I've ever taken.
>>60339731
IU Bloomington has one of the best music programs in the country. It has the sort of funding that allows for classes like these.
>>60339795
>>60339963
yeah but you have to go to college in indiana and that is not a fate i would wish on anyone
>tfw we will never hear smile as 1960s brian wilson envisioned it
life would still go on believe me
the world could show nothing to me
so what good would living do me
>>60340127
>tfw Brian is getting old
"God only knows what I'd be without you..." ;_;
>>60340061
Bloomington isn't too bad tbqh family. Then again I grew up further south in Indiana so Bloomington is like a fucking oasis. Still though. Great music scene, good food, lots of record stores. 9/10
>>60340061
>>60340268
yeah Bloomington is not the typical Indiana city, clearly because of the university. Great music scene
