Heroes and Villains
Today I have for you a masterpiece of harmonies, vocal composition, key changes and tempo changes. This is a rare live rehearsal recording of one of the Beach Boy's most underrated songs. It has quite a different feel from their other songs, and also a very different feel than the studio version. Don't get me wrong, their early surf bop is great, but songs like this really show off their compositional genius and depth.

I highly recommend watching the music video of the song as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptxwWt2JeGQ
Very different than this live version. I'm not sure which I prefer, I like them both for different reasons.

Song Prompt: "Heroes and Villains" by the Beach Boys



By the way, this one was a specific request for the Beach Boys. As a native Californian, of course I couldn't say no.

Now, go forth and write!
