The Beach Boys Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Feel FlowsThe Beach Boys43rank/position

The Beach Boys – Feel Flows (Visualizer)

Feel Flows, included on The Beach Boys’ album Surf’s Up, is a dreamy, beautiful track that showcases Carl Wilson’s brilliance.

The warmly resonant flute and sax tones, along with vocals that drift as if in a dream, invite you into a psychedelic world like a kaleidoscope.

It draws you in with a mellow, introspective atmosphere that differs from their early, cheerful image.

The song’s somewhat wistful allure was memorably used in the film Almost Famous.

Because the lyrics are abstract, it’s best not to overthink them—just surrender yourself to the waves of sound and immerse yourself in the world the song creates.

Help Me, RhondaThe Beach Boys44rank/position

Help Me, Rhonda (Remastered)

A track from an album released in 1965, right in the midst of a period when they were struggling as rivals behind the Beatles’ global popularity.

It’s a fun, danceable surf rock song with that quintessential Beach Boys feel: lower harmonies, a breezy rhythm, and a powerful vocal repeating the title refrain, all wrapped up in a love-song vibe.

The Beach Boys – How she boogalooed it

“How She Boogalooed It” is a track from the 1967 album Wild Honey.

The album was completed under the leadership of Carl Wilson, who took charge in place of Brian Wilson, who was in a neurotic state at the time.

It’s a fast, upbeat 8-beat number, but because the vocals aren’t chorus-heavy, it doesn’t feel very characteristic of the Beach Boys.

The Beach Boys – In My Room (Visualizer)

Released in 1963, The Beach Boys’ “In My Room” is a gem of a ballad whose introspective beauty overturns the glittering image of surf sound.

The song, which sings of Brian Wilson’s bedroom—said to have been his sanctuary—features the gentle harmonies of the three Wilson brothers that quietly seep into the depths of the heart.

It carries a warmth as if it had captured the very memories of the brothers singing together as children in that room, coexisting with a certain, bittersweet solitude.

Doesn’t it bring back that singular feeling of sinking deeply into your own world when alone in your room? Why not listen closely and experience another profound facet of their music?

“Keep An Eye On Summer” is a track from the 1964 album “Shut Down Volume 2.” It’s a beautifully crafted ballad.

Under the summer sun, memories of falling in love, the blue sea and sky, and the Beach Boys all come rushing back.

It’s a song you’ll want to listen to when you want to forget about time.
