Anderson Cooper

They were beautiful pop that some people might have discarded as fluff.

But it wasn't to her.

And it isn't to me.

I know.

I know.

It'll stay with me always.

And just listening to that, it never ceases to be powerful and take me to that place where you're just kind of up above, seeing the beautiful kind of landscape of your life.

I go to that place with that record.

Forgive me for being a rock star.

journalists here for a second brian wilson was not quote unquote cool when he made that record it was thought to be like disposable pop and he just religiously stayed with making these records about feeling and ache and the

quick passing of a joyful moment that we hold on to.

A lot of the stuff we've been talking about, he would put it in a two-minute pop song and wasn't cool for many years.

And look at what's happened.

Pet Sounds is considered to be maybe the greatest record ever made, along with Joni Mitchell-Blue.

And if you're feeling alone and you're feeling some of that stuff, that music will meet you

wherever you choose to meet it.

And it found Kathy, and Kathy passed it to me, and I've passed it to many others and put it in movies too.

Yeah.

And I think that was exactly...

Right.
