Not only do I dislike the Beachboys, I am also at a total loss as to why anybody likes them.
Furthermore, Liam Neeson agrees with me.

Same. It's contrived, shallow nonsense.

Good artists borrow, great artists steal.

Everyone loves the Beach Boys, I have seen them in concert many times. Members of the band have included Glen Campbell and the Captain & Tennille. I have seen them share a stage with the Boston Symphony and with Chicago.
Except, of course, President Ronald Reagan’s Secretary of the Interior James G. Watt.
The Beach Boys had marked Independence Day at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., in 1980, 1981 and 1982, performing to large audiences each time, and it had been expected that a fourth appearance would take place. Watt, however, had other ideas – without naming the band directly, he announced that no more rock acts would take part on July 4, saying they attracted “the wrong element.” “We’re not going to encourage drug abuse and alcoholism, as was done in the past,” he said.

I would agree.
But then I have never liked Van Morrison either.

OMG, YES!
Never understood the attraction.
Years ago, I saw Michael Feinstein do a big band version of "Moondance," and it was quite good.
Good song, questionable artist.
