I'm the lead singer of the Beach Boys and an ambassador of this amazing music that touched a generation.

I learned that when you do the best job that you can do, some people will idolize you, others won't care, and some will vilify you. I believe it is important to remain humble and thankful for the blessings in our lives, for the tremendous opportunities that are a result of our musical success.

Some people are denizens of the studio. I'm more of a denizen of the live appearance. I love the live thing.

You can't sustain a fan base on a great catalog alone. You must take your music directly to the people.

There's the historical part of The Beach Boys' music; it's pretty incredible, pretty vast and pretty varied too.

Keep a cool head and a warm heart. A mantra that became a song, inspired by the wise words of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. If we all take the time to listen and love each other, this world would be a better place.

There is so much to life; my heart breaks watching someone held captive by addiction.
