Brian Wilson's Saddest Song? (Beach Boys - Til I Die)
Brian Wilson wrote Til I Die for the Beach Boys in 1969, but the song wasn’t released until 1971, on their underrated album Surf’s Up. One of my favourite Beach Boys songs, with possibly their best lyrics, Til I Die has a unique chord progression and is beautifully produced. Some people think that it’s the most depressing song they ever recorded, others think it’s at least a bit uplifting: either way, it’s beautiful!
It was also released as the B-side to the single Long Promised Road, which was one of the Boys’ least commercially successful singles ever. A shame, becase both songs are fantastic!
In this video I analyse and review Til I Die, looking at the lyrics, the chords and the history behind it, exploring potential links with the Beatles’ ‘You Never Give Me Your Money’ and with Irvin Berlin’s ‘How Deep Is the Ocean’. Think of this video as something of an informed reaction to a song I’ve listened to a million times.
