Covers and Reviews

In November 1966 the song was covered by Bobby Vee. In 1998, the song was later covered by Thurston Moore singer, songwriter and guitarist of Sonic Youth on the Beach Boys tribute album Smiling Pets, which was only released in Japan. Recently the song was re-recorded by Brian Wilson and his band in his 2002 live album Pet Sounds Live. Stephen Davis, who reviewed Pet Sounds, stated that "Here Today" "portrays a pessimism and disaffection that jars with the previous optimism. It is the end of the affair..." Donald Guarisco of Allmusic described the song as "a highlight of Pet Sounds" and "one of Brian Wilson's most ambitious arrangements."
