Why does Brian Wilson get praised for this record when it's 90% Mike Love's doing?
No, it isn't.

Mike Love didn't do anything in this album. Why should he be praised or even credited.

He provided amazing vocals, you fag.

Mike had the worst vocal range of any of the Beach Boys, and all the lyrics he wrote were drivel.
Imagine being Mike Love in the Pet Sounds recording sessions and having to be all like "damn, Brian, you fuckin' brilliant, all profound with your pretentious songwriting and horrific cringe-worthy lyrics. I would totally jam this track out with you, both in the studio and in a live show." when all he really wants to do is compose surf rock about babes in your home. Like seriously imagine having to be Mike and not only sit in that chair while Brian sings his disgusting druggy lyrics in front of you, the favorable production barely concealing his high pitch whiny voice, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while he perfected that song. Not only having to tolerate his fat, boy-like visage but his shy attitude as visitors in the studio tells him he's THE MOST TALENTED SONGWRITER OF ALL TIME and DAMN, BRIAN WILSON WRITES LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch his beady fucking aspie face belt out shitty lyrics you didn't even know could be put on paper before that day. You've been creating nothing but a healthy string of surf pop hits with your bandmates and later legal defendant for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the suburbs in Inglewood. You've never even heard anything this fucking artsy fartsy before, and now you swear you can see the sweat that's breaking out on his punchable autistic face as he begins to spew out another verse, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and work with his "provocative (for that is what he calls the song)" masterpiece, the masterpiece he worked so hard for with Wrecking Crew in the previous months. And then the manager calls for another take, and you know you could out-sue every single person in this room before your lawyers could ask for a pay raise, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Mike Love. You're not going to lose your continuing musical career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

This is bait. He was the closest they had to a bass vocalist, while still being the lead singer,
>his lyrics primarily reflected the youth culture of surfing, cars, and romance, which has been described by writers as having helped fashion pop culture's perception of the "California Dream"
His lyrics were perfect for the Beach Boys,
>>60597844
No, his lyrics were perfect for the shitty proto-Beach Boys that Mike Love tried to keep alive so he could rake in more shekels like the greedy corporate kek he is. Fuck off, Mike.
Anyone got that "Mike Love - Shit Sounds" picture?

Wow man nice job

None of them even surfed, anyways. It was just Dennis and that was it. Everybody else clung to the image for a quick buck?

>implying it could ever be good to begin with
THE JOKE HERE IS THAT MIKE LOVE OBVIOUSLY DID NOT DO MOST OF PET SOUNDS, AND THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING ALONG WlTH THIS JOKE ARE PRETENDING TO IMPLY THAT MIKE LOVE WAS UNDERRATED/BETTER THAN BRIAN WILSON
