About "That's Not Me"
"That's Not Me" is a song by the American rock band the Beach Boys from their 1966 album Pet Sounds. Written by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher, it is distinguished for its sophisticated harmonic structure and its sudden shifts in mood and instrumental textures. Owing to its relatively sparse orchestration, it is the track on Pet Sounds that most closely resembles a conventional rock song.The lyric illustrates a young man in his path toward self-discovery and independence, ending with the realization that he is better living with a lover than pursuing a life of solitude in service to his dream. Wilson felt that the song revealed "a lot about" himself. Other writers speculate that the song may have been inspired by his use of psychedelic drugs or his withdrawal from regular concert appearances in the year prior.
Wilson produced "That's Not Me" at Western Studios in February 1966 with the aid of his bandmates alongside percussionist Hal Blaine, record producer Terry Melcher, and the Wilsons' cousin Steve Korthof. Mike Love shares lead vocal with Wilson, who plays the track's prominent, buzzing organ. Brian's brothers Carl and Dennis also contribute guitar and drums, respectively.
