“God Only Knows”, one of the tracks from one of the greatest albums of all time.
A humble tribute to Brian Wilson, a “thank you” for what he did during the peak of his creative life, the album Pet Sounds.
After watching this eloquent breakdown of how the song was constructed in this video from David Bennet, one should give it even more credit.
God Only Knows is a song that our ears approve regardless, but understanding its layers of complexity make for a more complete experience; also it provides us with a better understanding of the artist and his creative process.
And the icing on the cake, is the two part video from the Youtube channel Behind the Sounds, “God Only Knows Part 1” and “God Only Knows Part 2”
