God Only Knows is one of The Beach Boys' masterpieces, featured on the album Pet Sounds in 1966.
It was written by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher. Carl Wilson sings the lead vocals, with Brian and Bruce Johnston providing harmonies.
The lyrics speak of an unconditional and vulnerable love: only God knows what life would be like without the beloved. It was groundbreaking in 1966 for openly mentioning “God” in the title and lyrics.
Brian recorded it with about 20 session musicians (The Wrecking Crew), using unusual instruments such as the French horn, accordion, and harpsichord. The arrangement stands out for its complex vocal harmonies and the ending with overlapping rounds. The instrumental session took place in March 1966 in Hollywood.
Although it was released as the B-side to “Wouldn’t It Be Nice,” it became a timeless classic.
Rumours is one of the most iconic albums of all time.
It was recorded amid tremendous personal turmoil. The marriages of John and Christine McVie, and Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks, were falling apart. Despite the fights, tears, and breakups, they transformed that drama into a brilliant album.
It has sold over 40 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.
