In a 2002 documentary about the album, he commented, "It keeps going back to "Pet Sounds" here in my life, and I'm going, 'What about this "Pet Sounds"? Is it really that good an album?'

By 2006, more than 100 domestic and international publications and journalists had lauded "Pet Sounds" as one of the greatest albums ever recorded.
