This ranks right up there with "Warmth Of The Sun".

“God Only Knows.” The perfect marriage of beautiful melody and sublime lyric:
I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it God only knows what I'd be without you If you should ever leave me Though life would still go on, believe me The world could show nothing to me So what good would livin' do me God only knows what I'd be without you

From "Pet Sounds", God Only Knows... one of the most perfect and beautiful songs ever written and sung.

Til I Die
I love all of the songs mentioned up to now so it is hard to pick just one. I have been a huge Beach Boys fan since 1971 when I first heard the Surf's Up album. I will mention a song from that album that I don't think anyone has mentioned. One of my favorite songs from Surf's Up is Til I Die. The music is beautiful and the lyrics capture Brian's inner turmoil very well. This song is really in contrast to the summer feel good music the Beach Boys are mostly known for but this song always gets me when I listen to it, especially the extended version that surfaced later.

For anyone interested, check out the group "The Four Freshmen" and you will discover exactly where Brian Wilson got The Beach Boys' vocal style and even some of his musical influence. While this is a reincarnation of the original fifties group it is very representative of what Brian was drawn to and in fact, copied.
This is worth watching if you are a Beach Boys fan.

Good Vibrations and California Girls. As a kid, I loved the melodies and vocal harmonies. With Good Vibrations, I was fascinated by the different movements and most mystified by the sound of the Theramin. There just wasn't anything quite as exciting for me on am radio at the time.

I'm another "can't pick just one." Lovely harmony, cadence and arrangements on so many. And Brian Wilson had some kind of knack for pulling out great work from lyricists, or framing their contributions, or something.
In terms of arrangements, on their more complex ones, I'm often struck by how many movements can be stuffed inside a sub 3 minute song without seeming unnatural or manic. Good Vibrations, Heroes and Villains for example. Just since it hasn't been mentioned yet I believe, I'll thrown in "Surf's Up." Does anyone else remember seeing it on a Leonard Bernstein hosted "Inside the Rock Revolution?"

I always liked their music but I never associated them with playing guitar. Odd, I know. Great stuff though.

Wish I could hear this with just Carl and not the nasty sounding percussion.

Little Deuce Coupe. Best car song ever. Surfer Girl, because I've liked it since it came out when I was seven.
There are only a few Beach Boys songs I don't like.

The "Party" album (the original "Unplugged") was inspirational to me for showing how acoustic guitars + no drums could actually rock. Find the 2015 "Uncovered And Unplugged" edition which presents the tracks without the party noise overdubs. Carl and Al were some pretty good beaters.
