With one eye firmly on the weather I’ll keep the other eye here on myLot and celebrating the music of 50 years ago. Here’s another one of those acts who will show up in the 60-year-old list as well. Surf’s up! It’s O.K. - The Beach Boys If there’s anything the Beach Boys invoke, it’s summer fun. That’s exactly what this song is about. This also has some of the greatest advice ever put in a song: It’s OK to get out there and have some fun By yourself, perhaps, or else with a special one So if you wonder why Looey travels so much, and why I travel so much…. This song wasn’t very successful, barely cracking the top 30. If you remember a Beach Boys song from 1976, it’s most likely their far bigger hit single, the cover of “Rock and Roll Music.” I skipped that one and bought the 45 of this, because I found this song pure fun. I still do. This almost made the top ten, but 1976’s top ten is very full. It’s O.K. Written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love Recorded by The Beach Boys From 15 Big Ones, 1976 Find a ride:

First time I've heard this. I always thought all they sang about was surfing and 2 girls for every boy or some such nonsense.

If this is what I was doing at 16, finding the obscure ones, you understand why I am the way I am!

Of course I knew the Beach Boys but I drew a blank on the song.
