  • %22Little Honda%22 is a song written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love for the American rock band The Beach Boys. It was released on their 1964 album All Summer Long, and featured on their EP, Four by The Beach Boys. The song pays tribute to the small Honda motorcycle and its ease of operation, specifically the Honda Super Cub. Carl Wilson recalls:[Brian] does exactly what he wants to do. I remember [sits back and laughs] — this is so funny — when we did %22Little Honda,%22 Brian wanted me to get this real distorted guitar sound, real fuzzy. %22This guitar sounds like shit,%22 I said. %22Brian, I hate this.%22 And he goes, %22Would you fucking do it? Just do it.%22 When I heard it, I felt like an asshole. It sounded really hot. That was before fuzz became a big deal.It was covered by The Hondells, whose recording produced by Gary Usher peaked at #9 on the U.S. Billboard 100.
