The Beach Boys - Break Away (1969)
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 05. 2020
- The Beach Boys are an American rock band formed in Hawthorne, California in 1961. The group's original lineup consisted of brothers Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, and their friend Al Jardine. Distinguished by their vocal harmonies and early surf songs, they are one of the most influential acts of the rock era. The band drew on the music of jazz-based vocal groups, 1950s rock and roll, and black R&B to create their unique sound, and with Brian as composer, arranger, producer, and de facto leader, they often incorporated classical elements and unconventional recording techniques in innovative ways.
A classic which should have been a hit.
It was a hit here in the uk
@@allanarmstrong4333 Got to number 6. Always stick this on the pub' jukebox!!!!
Here in the UK, we never fell out of love with the Beach Boys
Maybe a hit here in Australia, I was only 4 yo but my older brother who was 14 played it a lot on his record player and it stuck in my mind for 50 years. It came to me out of the blue this morning and had to look it up.
It was a hit in South Africa. The Beach Boys were GODS in our sunny country! Still legends.
If this would have been promoted properly, it would have been a hit, I'm sure. But maybe someone at Capitol saw Mike in his monk outfit and quietly closed the door.
None of their get ups looked cool even for 1968-69.
lol
LOL!! Funniest comment. You made my day 😄😁
The Dude on lead vocals 😂
@@kellyweingart3692, Carl. Best
vocalist on the band! Brian will
agree.
I wish Carl Dean was still here!

Mike Love’s doing his best to appear as a Californian version of Rasputin.
A Rasputin version of a Californian?
But, he FAILED at both attempts.
steve
lol
Maharishi Californian 😂
Hilarious?
Yes!!!
It's amazingly funny how Dennis is not able to hit the drums in time, not even ONCE.
I love him
not a single time
haha
I mean this is a studio track overlaid over Tv or gig footage
Rasputin can't hit them, either.
I think it was some bad synching.
Everyone was off, except for Carl
and Alan. You can HEAR the drums,
and Dennis Carl is right on.
steve
It's because they overlayed the actual studio recording over the live performance, so of course it won't match up.
What an amazing song! Such an incredible band, what an era for classic music!
Carl .what a.beautiful voice.
This song transports me back to my childhood bedroom, lying on my bed.....doing homework, while listening to this song over and over.
Good, clean music, and super harmony!
Lovely melody-so sweet!
The most underrated and greatest band of all-time.
Disagree, sorry.
Sorry, but I agree with Bob.
They are not underrated here.
(Well, for the last 55 years.)

@@steveskouson9620 The Beach Boys post Pet Sounds was completely underrated, Steve. They barely sold any records in the States, and yet were producing some of the greatest albums in the history of music.
@@fshoaps No, they weren't "underrated." They just were not very good in the late 60's. Get it straight.
@@mikeymutual5489 Are you kidding me? Have you listened to "Friends", "Wild Honey", and "Sunflower"? Some of the best sounding records they made, and they barely made a dent in the United States.
One of their best, and most underrated, songs
This entire period of the Beach Boys (1967-1972) is very overlooked… or ‘underrated’, to use the parlance of our times. At least in America. They were able to maintain their popularity in other countries during that era. Namely the UK. Youth culture was less dictated by the west coast hippie elite over there. In America they had basically been blacklisted by the end of ‘67 for being a no show at Monterrey Pop, and for not delivering on the promise of the much-hyped SMiLE album. They were deemed ‘uncool’ by the Lou Adlers and the Bill Grahams of the day, and fell out of favor with the American public for about 6 or 7 years. It was ridiculous. They were making some of their best music ever during that period.
it’s crazy how similar Alan Jardine’s vocals were to Carl and Brian’s when he wasn’t related
That's Al lipping Brian's vocal.
@@evanwright9016 *carls vocal
@@evanwright9016 they are lipsycncing in this, but that is Al’s vocal on the original recording
Very useful
Al is originally from Lima Ohio, let alone California.
Very Beatles-esque - reminds me of And I Love Her in parts. Great vocals by Carl and Al.
Nikhil Soneja@ - This tune is more like a song style of The Four Seasons.
I personally think it sounds more like the Bee Gees
I personally think it sounds like late 60’s Beach Boys. I guess that’s just me. 🤷♂️
Wonderful song ! Incredible group!
This song was a huge hit back in june 1969 when it reached no 6 after huge promoting on radio one with kenny Everett 👏 🙌 😳 👌 💔 🙏 👏 😊😊❤❤
I Love how Dennis doesn't even try to drum in sync with the track. He even makes a funny face when he's completely out of sync 🙂
he was definitely too stoned to try & play in sync lol. Good ole Dennis the menace
Plus he didn’t even play on the actual song.
@@SlickNickVids he likely did. They weren't using the wrecking crew or other studio musicians anymore by 1969.
Dennis looks at the drums and the drums play
Well, that's because they're just lip syncing to their record. How would you feel if it didn't matter what note you played or sang, or whether you kept time on the drums? Kind of silly, right?
So good!!! Dennis was playing another song 😅
As always...
No. Someone overdubbed the original studio recording to the televised performance, and not very professionally I might add. This kind of thing happens a lot on YT uploads.
If this was the actual audio from the original Beat Club televised performance, it would be much lower sound quality, albeit visually synced up.
Mike Love, don't you just not love him.. probably my favourite Beach Boys single, it pips Good Vibration for me with it's soaring harmonies & Carl Wilson main vocal. Can't be bettered. Perfect.
Mike was heavily influenced in the drug culture of that time...I think he saw himself as John Lennon / Charles Manson..😅😂😊
Mike and Al weren’t into the drug culture at all. Mike was into TM.
Thank you Beant Club, best german TV Show ever...
One of the Gallagher brothers from Oasis, the sauncy one, dismisssed the Beach Boys as "barber shop quartet bullshit." I submit this song to the Gallagher brothers. They never came close to writing a song as good as this one, let alone the other Beach Boys songs.
oasis were derivative clones while The Beach Boys were pioneers and innovators who at one point rivaled the Beatles. Noel Gallagher is a clown
I love The Beach Boys, but I love Oasis too. Both are two of my favorite bands... Calling The Beach Boys "barber shop quartet bullshit" is just his stupid opinion, but Noel is a great songwriter too.
"Barber shop quartet bullshit" sounds hella good compared to that godawful grunge rock.
Liam. Who cares what he has to say about, oh I dunno… *ANYTHING?* All that guy has ever done, besides playing in the most derivative and mediocre band of all time, is talk smack on just about everyone else.
I have no problem with Noel, however.
@@jonathanbirch2022It was Liam who said that.
One of Carl’s best vocals!
I agree 100%.
Can you post one of Carl's bad vocals?
Didn't think so!
steve
I love Carl singing this song and the other song I love to this day is God only Knows, his vocals just touch my soul.R.I.P. Carl and Dennis...🙏❤🙏❤🇬🇧
@@Irene-qe5hu Dennis Carl, and Carl Dean. I miss them both!
Saw Brian, first show of his last concert tour, here in Phoenix.
Played with some group from Chicago. Miss Terry Kath as well.
Oh, listen to Darlin.

Superb song superb band love it
Long live the memories of Dennis & Carl Wilson. xoxo The Clarences
Best band ever out of the U.S.
One of there best in my opinion 😊
I don't understand why this wasn't bigger; it has become my favorite by the Beach Boys!!
Old man Murry wrote the lyrics, under a pen name. Since this would have been after they fired him as their manager, Brian, Dennis, and Carl probably weren't too keen on promoting it, and giving their abusive father claim to co-writing a big hit.
Thanks one of my favorite songs
Some of these boys are really high
Dennis @ 0:56 👍
Love this song❤
This one took awhile to grow on me but grow on me it sure as heck did.
Decent song should have been somewhere in the Billboard top 40
It probably would have, had it been promoted (here in the states). It did very well in other countries where it was actually being promoted and played on the radio. In America during this time (late 60’s), the Beach Boys were blacklisted by both the industry and the hippie elite. I know how crazy that sounds, but it’s true. Those were very different times. The Beach Boys had fallen from favor during those heady days in their home country, for a number of reasons. The biggest reason being that they bailed last minute on the generation-defining Monterrey Pop festival, where they were scheduled to be the headlining band. There were also other reasons why they were excommunicated by the countercultural cognoscenti, but mostly it was because of their being a no show at Monterrey Pop.
Like I said, they remained extremely popular in most other countries.
Love this song 🎵 ❤
Absolutely loved this tune. Learned to play it on guitar Buzz!!!!!
Seeing Carl Dean bouncing like that,
and his AMAZING voice, just awesome!
I'd LOVE to see Carl bounce again!
Now, can we do something about
Sasquatch? Sorry, Sasquatch the
Monk! (I'm pretty sure you know
what Little DOUCHE Coupe I'm
talking about.)
steve
Poignant and introspective, at least for me. Beautiful song!
The Beatles were great no question, but the Beach Boys were every bit as good. They could even carry on without Brian Wilson. The Beatles couldn't carry on without John Lennon. And Dennis Wilson, the only BB who could actually surf, delivers arguably his finest performance on this song.
Also Dennis was a fantastic songwriter in his own right. So was Carl, Bruce and Al. The early 70s is just them flexing that.
It looks like made in 2009 with black and white filter, i really love German's technology
Working outside in the pouring rain. Playing this on loop. Stay positive.
Carl Wilson sings like an angel.
He was cute who is doing the singing.
Carl had one of the best voices you’ll ever be privileged to hear.
Great Song. Great Band.
Yes breakaway with a splif ..mike love showing the way ..great stuff ...
I love it just as it is.
Made it to No. 1 on Radio Luxembourg... Love this song.
CARL DEAN WILSON!!!!!!!!!!!💖💓❣️💕💝🌸
Mike Love, the lovable Californian druid.
German beat club...often live...love it
These old TV performances! The wobbly mics, the wireless (unplugged) electric guitars (no kids, these were not a real thing until the 1980s), the often not-quite-right miming and slightly embarassed looks of the artists, it all looks kind of odd now. But, sadly for a lot of this old stuff, these are the best quality surviving visual "performances" of these classic hits. So much concert footage from those days was done on the cheap and looks very poor now.
"Breakaway" is a BB classic and - as I recall - it was their last single for Capitol (which fed into the song's sentiment no doubt). That might also explain why it was not a success in the US, as I doubt Capitol were much inclined to put much marketing and plugging into it. Nonetheless - as noted elsewhere in these comments - it was a big hit in several European geographies - and in many other places - so, clearly, most of Capitol's overseas affiliates (EMI in the UK for example) did work hard on it.
A on this essay.
1:57 I had no idea Rutherford B Hayes could sing.
I always thought this was their best work
Live brilliant
I've searched for cover versions of the beach boys !!!! Only beach boys can be beach boys
Tatsuro Yamashita actually does quite an admirable job of it on his 'Big Wave' album which is a mix of originals and covers
- but yes no one does it quite like them
Mike Love, Earth calling.
Alan does an AMAZING job, with
his falsetto voice. Matt Jardine
should be so good. Dennis, well
he is Dennis. Wish I had 10% of
his singing skill. I have zero% of
his drum skills.
Carl, I think I've said enough. BEST
voice I've ever heard!
steve
Hey where's love haha!
Al’s not singing falsetto. He’s also the one 60 years later who sounds closest to what he did when they were young.
Without question THE most influential, innovative band of the 1960's. Everything began with them
no
Such a beautiful song! But I still don’t know what The Beach Boys ever saw in Mike Love…such a silly guy..
in those days I was madly in love with Uschi Nerke.
Such a sweet voice al jardine has. On this and esp cottonfields i thought it was a lady singing!!
Damn D.J.'s wouldn't play their records or this song would have been big!
0:01 very cute hair style like "ronettes" !
Mike Love wearing a robe, so silly.
Great song which was a hit in the UK along with a number of others at that time.
Something, no massive underrated this tune, no play at any radio station. Awesome. Did they play it live, too?
Mike Love looks like he wearing the drapes from his room at the hotel where they're staying
these guys had the most amazing sense of harmony. If Bach were alive today he's be a Beach Boy fanatic. Bach, Beethoven, Beach Boys the 3 b's
Youre forgetting Brahm.
But yea, I think Bach wouldve had a soft spot for the Beach Boys had he been alive in the late 1960s.
Our song in 69. We weren't ment to be. Still think of you.
Mike Love always looks at the cameras, ready for his closeup 🙄
Who is the ID10T that looks like he escaped
from a weird monastery?
Alan, can you hit those notes? Can Matt?
You guys were AWESOME June 7th. (My
birthday present to me.)
Still miss Dennis Carl, and Carl Dean!
(Who named those Boys?)
steve
God bless the Wilson Brothers. I was crushed when I read about Dennis' drowning in December of 1983. I had the opportunity to express my feelings about Denny to Carl in 1985 and his brother's passing was devastating to him and Brian.
❤❤❤❤
How did the Beach Boys get such good harmony? Did they take some kind of lessons or something?
Brian Wilson learned it from the Four Freshmen
An american treasure
Why Mike Love look like dat
‘That,’ not ‘dat.’ Grow up!
@@heli-crewhgs5285 thanks dad
He was into fake woke shit during this period. Like enlightened and what not. Basically hippy
Mikey, Notre Dame wants their Quasimodo back!
To misquote the Beatles, "Get Back."
steve
Seriously, wtf was Mike Love playing at in those days? He’s the most square guy ever, extremely conservative… and from what I understand, a lifelong teetotaler. So, what was with all the heavy duty counterculture imagery? Especially here. Holy moly… he’s really pouring it on thick with that monster-sized mumu. Giving us some serious cult leader vibes. I wonder what his angle was.
What was the point of Mike Love ?
I will say it again ..Mike was the easiest one to replace in the group and was incredibly fortunate that he didn’t get canned around this time when he was far past his usefulness.
עוד שיר מקסים משנות השבעים העליזות.
What the hell does Mike Love look like FFS?
MiKe Nobi Love
Mike was so goofy, hehe
Love the beach boys…but why was Mike there?
i need to break away. but the scariest part is will it be better or worse than now?
You won't know unless you try, it could be the best thing you have done in your life so far and if not.. it wasnt meant to be ...make a complete new start....what is for you, won't pass you by... good luck.,💯🙋🏼♀️👍🙏🇬🇧
@Irene-qe5hu weird coincidence, got a girlfriend with the name Irene half a year ago. and she has helped me out that way
Damn this is the type of music they should’ve went for through the 70s. If they would’ve done this sort of thing consistently it likely would’ve caught on. I cannot for the life of me understand how a band with so much talent even other than Brian floundered around so much and made so many terrible creative decisions
👍❤🏄♂️
Brian was on a different style, without support.
Did Mike realize how foolish he looked?
I'm surprised he can even stand up. He probably doesn't even know what country he's in. :?
Narcissists never do see themselves as others see them. They are so in love (no pun intended) with themselves that in their minds they are the center of the universe. Mike is the poster child of true self involvement. His name should have been Richard because he was, and is, a total DICK!
Nice hooded sacrificial robe, Mike!
I sometimes feel Mike let the band down…might be me ,,
@Fs1e, Your intuition is right on target. It's not just you. 99% of true Beach Boys Fans would agree with you. The only person impressed with Mike...was, Mike!
@@timford3599 hi ,,I suppose he contributed either vocally,,,but definitely not visually,,,
Harmony
Mike Love left his Gandalf Wizard hat backstage..... Dude was a good singer, but such a Tool...
Maury's last chance to have a hit. I like it despite it only made it to #63. Unfortunately it was the Swan Song at Capitol Records.
Where’s Brian?
Carl had the voice of a choirboy; But Swami Love looks the fool here.
Dennis's synching is so far out as to be funny.
Mike Love is so creepy. Has he always been this creepy? dennis keeps f'n up the part. I wonder if he drunk. This song is one of thier best. Great tune. great lyrics.
lol dennis
Haha 0:52
Mike love is a fool
Amen
Too much LSD all round 🌈
