Neeko Speaks - Tumblr Posts
Alright people, this is me being desperate and calling out for The Beach Boys fanartists, I need y’all. I need art to devour.
Got tagged by @androcola (thank you btw :) )
Last Song: Getcha Back by The Beach Boys
Currently watching: Just finished It’s Ok! (1976) Beach Boys musical documentary, show wise is Little House on the Prairie
Spicy/Savory/Sweet: Really all depends on what mood I’m in but, generally I go for sweet
Relationship status: Single
Current Obsession: currently juggling between the Monkees and The Beach Boys (as if The Beach Boys thing wasn’t obvious)
I tag @autisticneilperry , @chillinwithivy , @starspangled-monkees and that’s all I got :)
@wheresthewater I just want you to know, you got the EXACT track that sparked the whole Borrowers AU :)
When I first listened to that track all I could think is of Brian being a Borrower who fell in the piano Al has laying around the flat. The whole premise of it was Brian wants to move into the piano but he’s got to convince his brothers that it would be a great place whilst also trying to prevent Al from selling it :) So.l nice catch on that one, you’re basically spot on :)
… how angry would we be if I drew Herman’s Hermits fanart? I’ve just finished watching Mrs. Brown You’ve Got A Lovely Daughter and have a desire to draw them now-
Who wants to sit on a grassy knoll at sunset with me and have “Beyond the Blue Horizon” playing in the background. Feeling slightly forlorn as we listen to it, as if we somehow missed someone and watched them drive away never to return…

Neeko meeting Micky in 19 days.. the wait is arduous and I’m also excitedly nervous about it all…
best beach boy?
To make me pick one is torture (simply cause I love the Wilson brothers as a whole, and I also love Al and Bruce for everything they do) . I love them all minus Mike Love.
We shall not speak of him here.
I never showed you guys I got my postcard signed when I went to see Micky- Maybe I’ll post some pics from the meet and greet too-
What do I have to to get the deluxe version of Smile Sessions.. preferably without saying goodbye to a whole paycheck-
Well I ended paying the money so I better get some Smiles out of this Session

Looking for requests for cartoon Beach Boys shenanigans :) Don’t be a stranger!! Send some in!!
best beach boy song?
AGH there’s literally so many?? It’s so hard just to pick narrow that down 😭 I’ll at least give a top five of my personal favorites (since I don’t think I could simply just pick one):
Vega-tables, Hushabye, Car Crazy Cutie, God Only Knows, and Good Time-
Once again there’s literally SO many I could list but here’s some of my top ones atm…
What if I did a redraw on this beloved post? >:3
How am I supposed to tell my coworkers that I have nothing but the Monkees living rent free in my head-
Back when I saw Micky last month 💕 Words can't even describe how nervous I was but man, I wish I can do it again sometime. It was such an amazing experience (even if my heart wanted to shoot out of my chest in the process)
Have you considered participating in ArtFight?
Yes! For two years actually! One year I wasn’t quite sure of how to do it and this year I was just a tad too busy to do it. But hopefully next year I’ll be able to participate! So we shall see how that goes :)
Hey! I've been following for a few months and it's always a pleasure to see your posts on the dash. Your art is so warm and comforting!
Just wanted to ask what your favorite Michael songs are, whether it be from the Monkees or his solo stuff.
Thanks again for all the beautiful art (especially love the Beach Boys and Monkees stuff <3)
Hehe thanks! I’m glad people like what I do (taking anything and turning it cozy lol). I shall make everything fluffy and wholesome >:3
I feel bad cause I know I say this A LOT to the point where I sound like a broken record but- it’s so hard to pick one. But.. if I was limited to just one I would probably have to say Beyond the Blue Horizon, as basic as that answer might sound. It’s hard to explain but every time I listen to it I just get hit with the BIGGEST wave of familiarity when I listen to it. It makes me feel like I was there, as if I was trailing behind him on the job and in the truck beside him- and as the song ends I feel as I watch him drive away drifting off and it hurts cause I never truly got to know him. I never met him or anything but- the song just makes me feel like I was there and as if I did! I did a wip animatic awhile ago but, it’s just so hard putting the feeling into actual substance-
For his solo works I particularly love everything in Magnetic South, And the Hits just Keep on Comin’, and Infinite Rider on the Big Dogma (don’t get me started on Tonite and Magic 😭). They are practically the three albums of his I generally loop through on a frequent basis.
As for his Monkees songs.. hmm.. I’d probably have to say the Kind of Girl I Love. It’s definitely in the top of some of my fav Monkees songs as well :)
