absolutely fantastic rendition . I'm a huge fan of the beach boys. Their songs remind me of my mom who was a fan of theirs, bless her soul. The harmonies in this song are pretty complex so way to go Foster the People
stop it with these comments! my god, if you dont like foster the people then why did you even enter here? im a foster the people fan, and in my opinion this is BEAUTIFUL!
I nearly feel outta my seat after watching the performance at the grammys..... I LOVE FOSTER THE PEOPLE and they will FOREVER be my absolute favorite band
You, this band is good. I grew up listening to the Beach Boys (my father raised me on the music he grew up with), and I slowly developed my own tastes in music. My listening habits span 65 years of music, so I think I can tell a decent band when I see one. FTP is a good band. They can improve, but they have potential. @Miriyam2000 as for you - respect for standing up for FTP, but please don't type like that. It makes it harder to read for the rest of us.
This is around the key the Beach Boys play these days. Not uncommon for a group to do their live act in lower keys. Helps to preserve the voice not going all out at the highest key 200 nights a year for 2 hours.
@missyroxxiee Apparently they have two other guys who tour with them, but I'm not sure he's one of them. And the guy on the left as well could be the other one.
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older? Then we wouldn't have to wait so long And wouldn't it be nice to live together In the kind of world where we belong? You know it's gonna make it that much better When we can say goodnight and stay together Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up In the morning when the day is new? And after having spent the day together Hold each other close the whole night through Happy times together we've been spending I wish that every kiss was never ending Oh, wouldn't it be nice? Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray It might come true Baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do Oh, we could be married (oh, we could be married) And then we'd be happy (and then we'd be happy) Oh, wouldn't it be nice? You know it seems the more we talk about it It only makes it worse to live without it But let's talk about it Oh, wouldn't it be nice? Goodnight, my baby Sleep tight, my baby Goodnight, my baby Sleep tight, my baby
The Beach Boys thought the were good enough to perform this song with them, so as a fan of the Boys I trust their judgement on their music more than you
@natmolffandalexlover i agree with you, its not better than the original, but you have to admit, its pretty damn good. and this is coming from and ftp fan
@LiamCrowley1990 Again Mark Foster did fine and you are entitled to your opinion. This song was arranged and recorded with an orchestra in 1966. How long do you think they had to rehearse this song live? Foster the People was asked to cover this song and they did which was a good job. You didn't like it so move on!
