"Help Me, Rhonda" is a song by American rock band the Beach Boys, appearing first on their 1965 album The Beach Boys Today! (where it was spelled "Help Me, Ronda") and subsequently in re-recorded form on the following 1965 album Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!). It was written by Brian Wilson, with additional lyrics by Mike Love. Unlike many other songs by the band from this period, "Help Me, Rhonda" features a lead vocal sung by Al Jardine.

According to Wilson, "Help Me, Rhonda" was not based on a real person. After being released as an album track on Today!, Wilson revisited the song, feeling it had commercial potential. This new version, featuring a different arrangement and slightly different lyrics, was released as a single in April 1965 and appeared on Summer Days later that same year. It topped the Billboard Hot 100, making it their second number-one single following "I Get Around" (1964). It remains one of the band's most acclaimed singles commercially and critically.

"Help Me, Rhonda" was written by Brian Wilson with additional lyrics by Mike Love.[1] In his memoir, Wilson claimed the song was inspired by Bobby Darin's "Mack the Knife", which he was playing on the piano when he came up with the music for "Help Me Rhonda".[2][nb 1] He has also cited "Fannie Mae" as an inspiration.[2]

The lyrics tell a story of a man who was attracted to a woman who then found another man; to aid the healing process, he begs a woman named Rhonda to help him get over her. According to Brian Wilson, "Rhonda" was not based on a real person.[4] The song's lead vocalist Al Jardine confirmed that Wilson had told him the song was fictional, though he commented, "I'm sure there was something down there in the psychology of it. ... We didn't really get into the meaning of the lyrics. They spoke for themselves."[2]

Mike Love cited the song as one where "maybe he [Brian Wilson] had a chorus idea" and Love would "come up with the lyrics to help finish off and complete the song."[5][nb 2] Of the lyrics, Love joked, "There are a lot of people, a lot of girls named Rhonda out there who have gotten remarks related to that song all their lives."[5]

Though Brian Wilson initially intended to perform the lead vocal for the song himself, he instead assigned the part to Al Jardine.[6] Brian Wilson later stated, "I'd heard Al sing a lot and liked his voice and wanted to write a song for him that showed off the quality of his voice and sure enough I did."[7] Jardine, who had only sung one lead vocal for the band up to that point,[nb 3] struggled with his vocal, recalling,

The vocal overdub session for the second version of this song was notable for resulting in a particularly heated confrontation between Wilson and his father Murry, who at the time had been dismissed as the group's manager for nearly a year but was still present in the studio on occasion. After Murry continually critiqued and ridiculed the group's singing throughout each take, Brian complained and got into a tense argument which ultimately led to a physical altercation over control of the soundboard. The unedited session tape has been extensively copied and shared.[9][10]

Two versions of "Help Me, Rhonda" were released commercially in 1965. The first version, recorded in January 1965 and featuring a ukelele-driven arrangement, was included on the band's The Beach Boys Today! album under the title "Help Me, Ronda". Jardine characterized this version as "more of a laid-back shuffle" and said it "definitely wasn't a single."[8] Mike Love similarly recalled that he "didn't anticipate" the song would become a "breakout hit".[11] Brian Wilson, however, felt the song had hit potential and the band rerecorded the track in 1965 with a punchier, guitar-led arrangement and some minor lyrical tweaks.[8]

The song would also appear on several compilation albums, among them 1967's Best of the Beach Boys Vol. 2[11] and 1974's Endless Summer, with the latter featuring the original recording from the Today! album.

"Help Me, Rhonda" continues to attract critical acclaim. Writers from Paste Magazine and The Guardian included the song on their lists of the best Beach Boys songs, with the former publication calling the song Brian Wilson's "finest pre-Pet Sounds track."[17][18][nb 5] In a retrospective review, William Ruhlmann of AllMusic said of the song, "It remains one of the best examples of [Brian] Wilson's ability to turn the turmoil of his life into stirring music."[19]

Lyrics: "I got a magic johnson. It's like a magic wand that allows me to not let a blonde arouse me; even if ronda rousey was on the couch with the condoms out holding a thousand magnums at once to pounce me."

The close friendship between Falla and Lejrraga led to important works, such the already mentioned El amor brujo and the ballet El sombrero de tres picos. There were also smaller collaborations of art songs, including the one below, "Pan de Ronda que sabe a verdad", which ended our recital in Madrid's Ritz Hotel. A brief andalusian style song, it tells the story of a short visit to the town of Ronda, in which Mara was inspired to exclaim about the goodness of the bread; bread as a symbol of the land, which also becomes part of a sentimental memory, of a trip that they both undertook in April of 1915 to explore The Alhambra in Granada. I hope you enjoy the video! The score is available via the Manuel de Falla Archive editions, as part of a printed edition called "Dos canciones de Mara Lejrraga"

Here is another beautiful song from my book Love songs in Spanish for Enjoyment and Learning. Follow the words as you listen to the music. If you like Noche de Ronda you probably will like some of my previous blogs: Granada (Feb. 6, 2016); Angelitos Negros (Feb. 6, 2016); Y (April 14, 2016); Siboney (May 22, 2016); Caminito (August 2, 2016); Hey!

Before you listen to this blog I suggest you find the song on Youtube, choose a version you like, and listen to it while you follow the words below. If you do this many times it will help to improve your accent; it will also give you cultural insight.

Noche de ronda is one of the most poetic, suggestive and elusive songs that I have ever encountered. Lara creates the magic, both the music and the words, and how well they fit together! As you listen to this song it is amusing to let your imagination wander and see where it takes you. The connotations of las rondas are rich: a sentry does his rounds, a child sings and dances a ronda (Is it suggested that love is often but a childish game?), people in a bar offer a round of drinks. And so on. Luna is rich in associations: lunacy, lunatic, etc. To carry a torch for this woman, is it not folly?

How is it that a difficult, womanizing, lounge-lizard like Lara can write songs like an angel? Who knows? Salieri wondered the same thing about Mozart in the movie Amadeus. People have wondered for years about that arch-moocher, Richard Wagner.

Throughout this song there are many verbs in the present tense: pasas (line 1); cruzas (line 2); hieres (line 3); lastimas (line 4); se quiebra (from quebrarse, line 5); also: vas, vas, est, son, hacen, dan. This song would make a good exercise on verbs in the present tense.

On the afternoon of February 24th, the Beach Boys laid down the song's backing track at Western Recorders in Hollywood with the help of bassist Carole Kaye, pianist Larry Knetchel and guitarist Glen Campbell, who was then touring with the group, having replaced Wilson on the road the previous December.

Although Al Jardine sang the lead on the single and usually sang the song in concert, over the years both Carl and Dennis Wilson temporally took over lead vocals on the song, with Dennis always leaving his drums to play the grand piano.

There has been much talk online about Ronda Rousey's theme. Many thought that it did not befit her persona, and would have preferred something darker and heavier. Before we discuss the song, let's find out what the theme was.

'Bad Reputation' is a classic by Joan Jett and was ranked as the 29th 'Best Hard Rock Song of All Time' by VH1. The song was released in 1980 by Jett, from an album of the very same name. The song has been used extensively in popular culture.

And yes, the most memorable use of the song in popular culture was by Ronda Rousey. The UFC legend used it during her entrances, as she trod to the octagon. In many ways - 'I don't give a damn about my reputation', was her slogan, her mantra about everything in life.
