Oh, I didn´t know, may he #RIP. #TheBeachBoys are what we humans call "Kult", one of the most famous 1960s music groups. ❤️❤️❤️

The soundtrack to our summers which never seemed to end. RIP.

SAD

RIP 😔 💔🎶💃🕺🏻😪

Wasn't he heavily into drugs in the late '60s?

🙏

May he RIP. So many great songs to leave as a legacy. My condolences to all family and friends.

😭

RIP enjoyed your music for many many years thank you

Aw hell. RIP sweet Brian.

The Beach Boys' music helped me through the traumatic years of high school, dating, finding a job, getting married and starting a family. Their music catalog was the theme for a large part of my life. Thank you, Brian! RIP

I remember riding in a cab in London when "California Girls" came on the radio. Being from Los Angeles, I was immediately homesick.

Thanks for the GOOD TIMES! 🥀 RIP🥀

Very sad. RIP.

Another creator of the soundtrack of my life. You will be missed Brian, RIP.

RIP Brian Wilson.

A genius who's music reached a 15 year old boy growing up in Wales, somewhere that couldn't be more different to Southern California. Music that stayed with me through my life, the honour of seeing them live in Wembley Arena in the late 1980s I will never forget. R.I.P. Brian Wilson, thank you.

🌹

❤️🙏🕊️

Sad 😔 day, music 🎶 has left the sky for a little while…

Trump kiled him

“Don’t Worry Baby”

RIP no one did it like he did! Some of the best music from my youth!!! 🎶

God only knows what I'd be without him! 🙏😭

If someone asked me to name my favorite Beach Boys song, my answer would have to be "All of them." I can't think of another group where that answer would apply.

Oh wow, you’re right. We’ve lost all the Wilson brothers now. How sad :(

Perfect

I know the lyrics to every one of these songs. RIP dear Brian.

The competition between he and Paul McCartney was to our benefit.

Sad

And what a life!

He gave us great, innovative and fun music even with a troubled mind. Thanks Brian. RIP

RIP…

Good Vibrations is one of the 10 best songs of all time.

😪

Rest in peace, Brian... :(

I live in Cornwall. It's the closest the UK has to California so in a strange way the BeachBoys' music has always meant home to me. God rest this absolute genius..

Battled depression. God bless him.

His music has carried me in my lowest times, a balm on my soul. His music has made the sweet times even sweeter. Just listening to Pet Sounds and Lucky Old Sun was enough to find a path out of sadness. I will be listening today

Another great one gone but never will be forgotten! Being a Boomer The Beach Boys was my first choice for music! ❤️ RIP Brian Thanks for your music as I was a major fan! 🙏

www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6FD... Sound that changed the world!

Brian & Sly…beautiful music

Awwwww....shit. What a life that man led. And the demons he dealt with. A true American legend. And a musical genius. The Beach Boys were my first concert. 14 years old, took a bus and went on my own. It was magic.

The lives his music touched. RIP

The soundtrack of my youth…being an LA girl in the Sixties meant that The Beach Boys were ours. What an incredible talent!

In 1975, I went to the Chicago/Beach Boys concert at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. Beach Boys played first, and then Chicago took the stage. Halfway through their second song. 75,000 fans kept shouting for the Beach Boys, and they came out again and played 2 more songs before Chicago could continue. ❤️

😥

RIP.

Aww, man… a sad day for the world.

Wonderful

🥺😥😢😭😭 maybe you can finally find peace 🥺🙏💔... we'll miss you kind sir 😥💔🎤🎹🎵😘

The underseen & underappreciated 2014 biopic of Wilson, ‘Love and Mercy’ is a highly inventive original work of art itself. With Wilson played by both Paul Dano and John Cusack at different ages, and Paul Giamatti as Dr. Landy, it’s deeply insightful and respectful of Wilson’s art & life struggles.

He died of a broken heart... RIP.

😢

Loving this just doesn't seem right... 😢

RIP Thanks for the music.

Drove downtown in the rain....9:30 on Tuesday night.....

Even Brian had enough of Trump and checked out early to have some fun fun fun again.

And his greatest song, Good Vibrations.

Sad news. Loved the man.

The best memory, my very first concert as a ten year old with my big brother at Long Beach Arena. We loved The Beach Boys!! May he rest in peace. 🙏

We need our artists more than ever now, the light-bringers, the unifiers: and the work is still here for us. compulsivereader.com/2012/05/28/s...

RIP Brian, thanks for all the music

All the great ones are dying on us so quickly

RIP..Brian youtu.be/apBWI6xrbLY?...

“Pet Sounds”

❤️😢🌺

Ah, shoot!

Music that made you smile. Made you think of summer, the beach, and hanging out with your friends. Makes you think of good times and good memories. Thank you, Mr. Wilson. R.I.P.

This year really sucks

Fantastic song, timeless

Go fuck yourself Washington Post.

Summer is canceled this year. RIP Brian Wilson. Long live the Beach Boys.

RIP Brian Wilson. You've earned it. Thank you for your contributions to my early life.

Rest in Peace 💔💔 !!

💔

😢

Oh no, how sad. I met him once nice guy. 💔 I'm getting old all the people I grew up with going to shows are leaving.

❤️‍🩹

What a body of work!! Timeless classics his music resonates with me everyday. A true legend and pioneer. Thank you Brian for making me sing along

Imagine the Music in Rock and Roll Heaven! Rest in Peace Sly and Brian💐

"I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" came up on shuffle for me last week. Beautiful song. I remember listening to it and Pet Sounds a lot in college, walking between classes in the snow.

The Beatles considered him genius.

Playing Pet Sounds now….

Perfect metaphor for California today. The end of a unique time.

R.I.P. Brian.

He was a master at producing feel good music.

So sad. Brian was The Beach Boys. Don’t let those posers using the band name fool you.

The creator of the most influential album of the 60s... Pet Sounds.

Fuck the Washington Post and their dick headed owner.

I liked Sloop John B, purportedly based on a Bahamian folk song from Nassau.

Soundtrack of summer. 😢

Did he have the misfortune to meet JD Vance?

RIP

😢

Very talented man! RIP!

😢

PET SOUNDS !

RIP Brian. Legendary is not enough to describe this guy. Songwriting, singing, generational star. He did it all and was the best at it. He defined the modern musical process. Those songs will live forever.

Good music for the time!🎵🎶

😿💔

Very sad indeed!

My very 1st concert it the age 12 without my parents looking over my shoulder was The Little Rascals and headliner Beach Boys. (I went with my older cousin. Dropped off by my mom.) Tickets cost $3.50 ea. At age 13 I started surfing. Like a Flintstone took 3 of us to carry the board to the water.

❤️❤️❤️

All of the icons for the 1960s are fading into history. We had some great music back there. People actually played instruments and sang with their own voices who knew

😢😢

That's pretty sad... Pet Sounds is some kind of masterpiece, and the movie they made about him called " Love and Mercy" explains him well. See it and listen to Pet Sounds , they will change you somehow..

Ohhhhh no

The world lost a great talent. Rest in peace Brian and keep those Sounds of Summer coming wherever you are! 💔

What a legend. RIP Brian Wilson. Your legacy will remain timeless.

RIP

😢😢😢

What sad news. Thanks, Brian, for your incredible body of work.

I thought he had been dead for a while.

Me too ...

I wonder if every generation has seen the deaths of musicians in the same way. I like to believe that this was something special.

Went to see The Beach Boys in 1973 the opening act were the Eagles. Ripped Brian

Jesus H! It’s God Only Knows and Good Vibrations that head the MF list

Saw the group at Saratoga Performing Arts Center years ago. He is at peace now. So much suffering and such a musical genius. Gifted, talented and creative. In My Room is my favorite Beach Boys song. Thank you, Brian, for all you gave us. RIP

I loved them!

😢
