美國搖滾樂團，成立於加利福尼亞州洛杉磯縣霍桑市，是衝浪搖滾音樂的經典代表樂團。該團以精準的合音，以及反映著加州青年文化、關於車和衝浪的歌曲著稱。布萊恩·威爾森充滿野心的創造與想像力，使得海灘男孩成為一個更創新的團體，並獲得了極高的讚譽，甚至影響了許多後來的音樂人。beach boy
“海灘男孩”對樂壇的貢獻，並不在於他們創造的以描述美國黃金時代奢侈生活為內容的浮誇的衝浪音樂，而在於他們完成了一個和諧完整的男聲和聲體系，這對以後的樂隊和聲組合影響深遠，樂隊在這一方面的集大成之作，當屬《寵物之聲》專輯。專輯中優美整齊到天衣無縫的和聲極具欣賞價值，專輯中的代表歌曲也是最流行的歌曲就是這首“豈不更好(Wouldn't It Be Nice)”。
代表作品
豈不更好(Wouldn't It Be Nice)完成於1961年，卻一直傳唱不衰。它描繪的是少男少女希望與自己的戀人相依相慰，白頭到老的這種純真情感。不僅曲調清新，歌詞也讓人充滿暢想。亞當.桑德勒的新片《初戀50次》中取起作為貫穿全片的主題曲，也顯得十分優美動人。
豈不更好(Wouldn't It Be Nice)歌詞
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong
You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through
Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was never ending
Wouldn't it be nice
Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
