The Beach Boys are not a superstar group. The music is the superstar of the group.

If there wasn't The Beach Boys and there wasn't music, I wouldn't even talk to them. But through the music I fell in love with my brothers.

... only love begets love.

I love you for all that you are, all that you have been, all that you're yet to be.
