Today I was thinking about how I admire the complexity of music by The Beatles, but I am more emotionally affected by The Beach Boys' music, and that matters more to me. The Beach Boys make me nostalgic for a life I've never had.
If I had to evaporate one band or the other, I'd rather evaporate the Beatles because I prefer the sweetness and emotional purity of The Beach Boys' songs to the bitter, intellectual coolness that I sense in many songs by The Beatles. I'd like to live more lives beyond my own, and the Beach Boys' music gives me the sense that I am. The Beatles' music, in contrast, leaves me being who I am, but shifts my state of mind and not always for the better.
i don't think the Beatles ever did anything as complex as The Beach Boys' Don't Talk (Put Your Head on my Shoulder).
Inversely, the Beach Boys never hit me as emotionally as this song:-
