"Don't Back Down" is a song written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love for the American rock band the Beach Boys. It was released as the final track on their 1964 album All Summer Long. In the lyrics, the narrator references a group of surfers who "don't back down from that wave", explaining that they "gotta be a little nuts" to show the girls "who's got guts". It was the group's last surfing-themed song until 1968's "Do It Again". In 1990, an earlier version of "Don't Back Down" was included on a reissue CD that compiled Little Deuce Coupe and All Summer Long, and in 2014, a new stereo mix was featured on the archival release Keep an Eye on Summer 1964. In 1996, punk rock band the Queers recorded a cover version of the song that served as the lead single for their album Don't Back Down.more »
