Is this the worst Beach Boys song of all time?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

10. "Kokomo," a crass, calculating, deliberately commercial piece of crap masquerading as a "hit."

Runs a close second with the John Stamos remake of the Dennis Wilson track "Forever" (from Sunflower) that appeared on the final Beach Boys studio album Summer in Paradise (1992), also the last recorded Beach Boys work from Carl Wilson.

The album also included a whiny Mike Love remake of Sly & The Family Stone's "Hot Fun In The Summertime" and WAY TOO MANY other covers songs. It was a lazy, lifeless album, and I've always considered it their worst all around effort.



Seriously, you want the "worst of the Beach Boys," you'll find it right here. These boys went out with a whimper, not a bang.
