I wrote on social media that Brian Wilson's music changed my life. Someone replied that it actually saved their life. I thought about that for a moment. And I realized that Brian's music probably saved my life too. I hope that Brian is experiencing the best the afterlife has to offer. God only knows he deserves it.

Brian, as the leader of the Beach Boys, were the best in American Rock n Roll as John Lennon of the Beatles were also best from England. Your band and his band go hand n hand. Brian may you rest in peace.

I loved his music. They were such an integral part of my pre-teen and teen years. Whenever I went to the beach, I wanted to listen to Beach Boys music.
About a year ago, I watched The Long Promised Road and my heart really broke for him. He was a person I wished I had personally known but feel like I did due to his music, especially In My Room. I would have given him a hug and told him he was loved.

Brian and his fabulous band inspired so much that was to follow with their uniquely sublime music, song, and harmonic performance. To me, Good Vibrations evokes the whole era of joyful awareness and togetherness under the trees beside the beach having a good, peaceful time. Condolences to Brian's loved ones.

I grew up listening to your music-some of the best melodies ever created by any band. As a kid, I loved all of the Beach Boys´ songs, but Wouldn´t It Be Nice was always my favorite.
As I got older, I fell in love with God Only Knows, and to this day, it´s my favorite song of all time.
Brian, you will be forever missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.
> "I may not always love you, but as long as there are stars above you..."
Love & Mercy,

My condolences go out to All the children and grandchildren and family members and close friends who loved him so. Brian leaves behind his greatest legacy which is all his children. He was a wonderful writer and musician. His music will live on for many years for its timeless. He will be remembered for his heart and soul he layed out in every tune he ever wrote . It was his love note left behind to all those who loved him so. He saved many lives. He was always very humble in knowing he did so. He loved meeting his fans though it was over whelming to be on stage . He had such a kind heart. You did a wonderful job here on earth and now you can finally rest in peace Brian. Will always be greatful for your kindness. You were a wonderful friend to all those who knew you. God Speed... May you find peace, love and mercy...

My heartfelt condolences to Brian Wilson's family, loved ones, friends & fans.
Having grown up in the 60's-70's the Beach Boys' songs were on radio. These songs will always be played. The kind of songs We can at times hum, but sing the chorus always...
Brian was always a force to contend with.
I for one, am truly sorry for what he lived through as a youngster.
Out of adversity, Brian came through shining as gold.
He created song masterpieces
Thank You Brian, for having shared Your creative genius, gift, art, talent and everything You were. The world is a better place because You lived and were in it
Bless You Always & forever, the Beach Boys...
