Released: August 24, 1964

Songwriter: Mike Love Brian Wilson

Producer: Brian Wilson

[Chorus: Mike Love]
She knows me
She knows me

[Verse 1: Brian Wilson]
Sometimes I have a weird way of showing my love
And I always expect her to know what I'm thinking of

[Chorus: Mike Love]
She knows me

[Verse 2: Brian Wilson]
I treat her so mean I don't deserve what I have
And I think that she'll forget just by making her laugh
But she knows me

[Chorus 2: Brian Wilson]
Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her

[Verse 3: Brian Wilson]
I get so jealous of the other guy
And then I'm not happy til' I make her break down and cry
When I look at other girls it must kill her inside
But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys
But she knows me

[Chorus 2: Brian Wilson]
Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her

[Instrumental - Carl's Solo]

[Chorus: Mike Love]
She knows me
She knows me

[Verse 4: Brian Wilson]
When I look at other girls it must kill her inside
But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys
'Cause she knows me

[Chorus 2: Brian Wilson]
Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her

The Beach Boys

The Beach Boys are one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time and the first American pop band to reach the 50-year milestone. Their vocal harmonies are among the most unmistakable and enduring of the rock and roll era.

Formed in 1961 in Hawthorne, California, by Brian Wilson, his two brothers Carl and Dennis, their cousin Mike Love, and classmate Al Jardine, the group’s first single “Surfin'” got them signed to Capitol Records and they quickly became one of the most popular and successful artists of the surf music craze of the 1960s. From 1962 to 1966, The Beach Boys scored over twenty top 40 hits in the US including the chart-toppers “I Get Around”, “Help Me Rhonda” & “Good Vibrations” along with the top 5’s “Surfin USA”, “Fun, Fun, Fun”, “California Girls”, “Barbara Ann” & “Sloop John B”. Several of the band’s singles also found top 40 success in Canada, Australia, Sweden and the UK. In 1965, de facto leader Brian Wilson suffered a mental breakdown due to the stress of writing, producing & touring combined with substance abuse issues, causing him to step down and stop traveling with the band on tour.

Inspired by producer Phil Spector and The Beatles' Rubber Soul, Brian focused on studio work, determined to keep the group relevant as the surf music scene was fading with their 1966 album Pet Sounds. Despite tension between members in the studio about this new direction, lack of faith from the record label, mixed reviews, and comparatively lukewarm reception initially in the US, the album still found massive success in the UK and earned accolades from fellow artists including The Beatles, who acknowledged that the album was their inspiration to further push the boundaries of pop music with their landmark album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Eventually Pet Sounds would be acknowledged as one of the greatest albums ever recorded by several media outlets like The Times, Mojo Magazine, The Guardian, VH1, BBC and Rolling Stone.
