"Chapel of Love" by The Beach Boys



With a gig in Columbus, Ohio coming up next week, Mike Love, Brian Wilson, and Al Jardine of The Beach Boys will have been entertaining audiences for an unreal SIX consecutive decades.

Over those sixty years, they have sold hundreds of millions of records, and recorded some amazing and timeless tunes.

This cover of "Chapel of Love" by The Dixie Cups is not one of them.

Help me, Rhonda, this sucks.

The bow-bow-bow-bow "lyrics" that are charming in other tunes of theirs fail miserably here.

Then, there's the guy in the back crooning "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" and "Sky is blue!" like a wave riding Flavor Flav.

This one is basically a bloated whale carcass.
