Brian Wilson was truly inspired by the muse and it is sad that the drugs and demons kept him off the scene for so long but during his time he left us with wonderful music.<br /><br />I have seen various permutations of the Beach Boys perform live about a dozen times over the past 40 years (only once with Brian in the group). Thier music is wonderful and, at least for me, timeless.<br /><br />Like so many of the original artists of that era much of their music was so well fitted to the Beach Boys that attempts to 'cover' their music was rarely successful. I cannot think of any attempts to cover "In My Room".<br /><br />Regards<br />Patscalesmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405121500560615820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-42623764127338724962011-02-08T06:13:37.037-05:002011-02-08T06:13:37.037-05:00I think you are right about that song Stana!I think you are right about that song Stana!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-4477887750974829622011-02-08T01:09:12.496-05:002011-02-08T01:09:12.496-05:00Although I was born too late to listen them first ...Although I was born too late to listen them first time around I always listened to my dad's beach boys records (and got a huge amount of stick from people in school because of it). I love the lyrics, the sound of the vocals and the atmosphere of their songs.<br /><br />This one always get me in a very reflective / emotional mood. Even just hearing the lyrics in hy head as I read your post.<br /><br />IIRC The Wilson boys had a very difficult home life with a very overbearing father. I guess that is the source of the song, but it fits so many people in difficult times...<br /><br />StaceStacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07907346657510908857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-41201115344215711812011-02-07T22:21:38.019-05:002011-02-07T22:21:38.019-05:00I know I, identify with that song.I know I, identify with that song.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
