It is pretty tough, especially since quite a few of the songs (or at least especially notable ones) are from the Smile sessions.

Whatever appeal the Beach Boys have, whatever emotion their music has, I'm completely blind to it. They really are one of those bands I just don't get. So, yeah, Beatles. Hands down.

I did a whole days worth of listening to The Beach Boys, and I will say I used to think the same as you, but I actually really got into them, like big time. Definitely worth your time if you're willing to do it.

The Smile Sessions are my antidote for such silly ideas, but some people are more into Pet Sounds. Smiley Smile is pretty neat too if you want to hear a more stripped down, drugged out Beach Boys.

Silly ideas? Come now, I didn't say they were sh*t, I said I'm blind to their qualities. And I am.

I haven't yet. But I will. I'm determined to get to the bottom of this Beach Boys love.

Oh, and I have a question. And I ain't taking the piss. But does the lead singer ever smile? I've seen him on TV playing live shows, gigs, festivals, what have you, and man he looks so miserable. The rest of the band are all chirpy, but he always looks proper down in the dumps.

The BB's have two lead singers - Mike Love and Brian Wilson. Not sure which one you're talking about.

In one of my "comparison" pages I've got concert footage of both bands. Might want to look for smiles (or lack thereof) in those.

And BTW, if you want to skip to what I consider to be The Most Important Comparison Of All, go to the one at the top of page 64.
