Who doesn’t like the Beach Boys? Ruby is a serious fan. When her mom asked Google Play to play the song, the box made the announcement. At that point, Ruby said, “Listen.” When the song started, she turned and made her way to the center of the dance floor. And there she danced and sang her little heart out.
The comments section is lively, with people remarking about this being a pick-me-up. 80sDad19 says, “Music teacher here! She’s learning early!! Her brain is on fire and she recognizes the syllables, melody, and tempo!! She’s on her way to greatness!!” At one year, Ruby has already mastered things that some five-year-olds have difficulty with.

Even though the Beach Boys were from a different era, their music remains popular today. Some of the members have changed, but the band remains very active, touring extensively throughout the United States. They will be traveling overseas to perform concerts for the last two weeks of July 2025.
If you’re like this baby and can’t get enough of the Beach Boys, follow the band on Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram. They are still “The Inventors of Summer Fun.” Follow Ruby’s mom on TikTok to watch this little dynamo grow up.
Ruby isn’t the only fan of this song. Molly, an African Gray parrot, has learned how to make Alexa play “Barbara Ann” so she can bop along to the music.
