New poll! "A Day in the Life" vs. "Good Vibrations"
Added 2026-01-18 18:04:14 +0000 UTCOkay, no more Gen Z crap. We're going to back to those Boomer classics, baby. You know them, you love them, vote now on the psychedelic masterpieces of the late '60s, The Beatles' "A Day in the Life" or the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations"!

I saw the music video for Day In the Life on TV as a kid and it stuck in my head instantly. Hard not to love a song about being traumatized over the news in Current Year. Pet Sounds is an amazing album too!

2026-01-25 21:18:16 +0000 UTCOnce upon a time, I made a short film in college, in which I was heavily influenced by American Psycho, and like Patrick Bateman, my character had music playing in the background, but unlike Bateman, in which he was shown dancing before murdering Jared Leto's character, I was singing along to my song instead as I was suffocating another character with a plastic Walmart bag, played by my college roommate. Good Vibrations was that very song. Anyways, A Day in the Life is the better song.

2026-01-24 13:34:31 +0000 UTCI never remember that’s the name of the Beatles’ song, but I definitely know the song very well. Other than Beatles vs Beach Boys, I didn’t really understand why these songs were going head to head. After listening to both and seeing when in their careers they were released, I kind of get it, but still think they’re not very similar songs.
