I thought Edgar Wright put this song to good use in that parkou-ey chase scene in Baby DriverThis track is absolutely wild. You can occasionally hear it on classic rock radio stations. A lot of their stuff is real chill, but this is a banger.

Like the song and the 25th anniversary of the album is in a month or two. I think R.E.M have a few Beach Boys influenced songs across their catalogue, but this one they're clearly leaning into it. The most blatant example I can remember of someone trying to do the Beach boys is the band the Explorers Club. They are to the Beach Boys as Greta Van Fleet is to Led Zeppelin.More experimental feel for sure.
You an REM guy?
UP was a great and very underrated album by them. Can’t help but think At My Most Beautiful was inspired by Feel Flows. It’s like a part 2.
Full Wall of Sound effect.
Out of all of the great Beach Boys songs, I think this is the best written and connect the most with it. Really good one.

That version is massively sped up from the studio version. The background is that the show only gave them 4 and a half minutes (all they ever have anyone) for a song that went nearly seven normally. So rather than cut out more than two minutes, they said "fuck it - we'll just play really, really fast.". Pretty hilarious result.
Jan Akkerman was a hell of a guitar player, and singer/keyboardist/classically-trained flautist Thijs van Leer also is very talented. I used to have one of his flute albums that I used for studying. Pretty cool guy.
I had that album awhile back. Warren G had some good stuff in the 90s besides the ubiquitous "Regulate."
More experimental feel for sure.

The whole Genesis album Trick of the Tail is very underrated. I find a lot of people don’t even know it existed.
You Genesis fans might appreciate this. One of my favorite Yes tracks, on probably my favorite Yes album...
