Sometimes we live no particular way but our own
And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home
Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone
Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own

On top of writing music, here's an example of what Brian Wilson could do with music that had already been written and performed. First is the original Hushabye, by The Mystics in 1959, then is The Beach Boys version in 1964. Quite a difference.
Here's another one. First is Sloop John B by The Kingston Trio in 1958, then is The Beach Boys version in 1966. It almost doesn't even sound like the same song.

No one is better than Dolly
She wrote this song to Porter Wagner when she left his show to headline. It is a love song about filio love of two close friends.

It turned out Boston didn't have a lot of variety and wasn't a kick ass band long term, but that first album holds up very well. All of it AFAIC.
What is amazing is that Boston didn’t even exist as a band when most the first album was recorded. Almost all instruments were done by Tom Scholz, who had a masters degree from MIT. He had a friend do drums and another do the vocals. The demo tapes got attention from the studios but when it came time for a live audition he had to scramble to find guys to play all the instruments.
Interesting read on Wiki.
