Transcription

Origins

Brian Wilson wrote the song in early 1965 while on honeymoon with Marilyn. He recalled that "a whole song came to me. It was 'Girl Don't Tell Me.' I didn't have any way to get it down. But I just heard the whole thing up there, from start to finish, and I remembered it well enough to go later and write down the lyrics on a piece of paper."[2]

Recording

The Beach Boys recorded "Girl Don't Tell Me" on April 30, 1965, at United Western Recorders. Chuck Britz was the engineer.[3] It was one of the first songs to feature Carl Wilson as lead vocalist[4] and is one of the few Beach Boys tracks from the era to feature no backing vocals.

Beach Boys biographer David Leaf has likened "Girl Don't Tell Me" to the Beatles' 1965 single "Ticket to Ride", in terms of its guitar breaks, drum fills and vocal delivery.[4] Brian Wilson cited this as an example of how each new Beatles release over this period inspired him as a songwriter, and how, with "Girl Don't Tell Me", "I even tried writing a Beatles song."[5] He said that Carl's drawn-out phrasing over the words "you'll write" was taken from "Ticket to Ride".[5] It has been claimed that Brian intended to submit "Girl Don't Tell Me" to the Beatles.[6]

Reception

Cash Box described it as a "pretty, medium-paced tale of remorse."[7]
