Good Vibrations
This redhead’s knee-length dress has an unusual pattern that has an interesting vibration-like effect. Her stockings continue the theme. She finishes it off with shiny black patent-leather stiletto heels.
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
She’s giving me excitations
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
She’s giving me excitations
Good good good good vibrations
–by Brian Wilson, Good Vibrations, recorded by the Beach Boys (1966)
Good Vibrations was a pop hit by The Beach Boys 1966. When Brian Wilson was a child, his mother told him that dogs could pick up “vibrations” from people, so that the dog would bark at “bad vibrations”. With Mike Love, this led to the concept for the song. The youtube is a live performance from the Good Vibrations Tour in 1976 with footage from a birthday party with Paul and Linda McCartney.
The Beach Boys: GOOD VIBRATIONS
I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
She’s giving me excitations
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
(oom bop bop good vibrations)
She’s giving me excitations
(oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations
(oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations
(oom bop bop excitations)
Close my eyes
She’s somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
….
(ahhhhhhh)
(ah my my what elation)
I dont know where but she sends me there
(ah my my what a sensation)
(ah my my what elations)
(ah my my what)
Gotta keep those lovin’ good vibrations
A happenin’ with her
