Paul McCartney took some time to honor late Beach Boys founder and music legend Brian Wilson this morning. “Brian had that mysterious sense of musical genius that made his songs so achingly special,” McCartney wrote in an Instagram post. “The notes he heard in his head and passed to us were simple and brilliant at the same time. I loved him, and was privileged to be around his bright shining light for a little while.”
“How we will continue without Brian Wilson, ‘God Only Knows,'” he concluded.
