Google is an algorithm, and most people know the Beach Boys version, so that’s what they’d search for.  Google knows this...

At least it doesn’t claim every parody song (no matter how crude) is by Weird Al.

A ctually, the Beach Boys version is very obscure. The original is the popular one.

Im old, so I don't believe you, or agree.  I also grew up in California.  But if I say that title, I will always hear someone say Beach Boys

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever heard the Beach Boys version. It was only recorded once, live. Any studio version you hear is Jan & Dean, although it’s often misattributed.

I could be wrong, but that's what my research tells me.
