The workshop sounds on "Do It Again" are from "I Wanna Be Around."

There's a section of "Look" in "Good Vibrations," but I'm not sure if that would be included since it was done before SMiLE was scrapped.

Do You Like Worms?:
Inspiration for "Little Pad"

This ever been confirmed? I don't know if I agree with it, nor the claims that "Whistle In" was based off of part of the song.

SMiLE References and Releases  (Original Catalog Only!)

Do You Like Worms?:
Inspiration for "Little Pad"

And arguably alluded to in "Whistle In" -- compare "Remember the day..." to "Wahalaloolay..."

Quote
Child Is Father Of The Man:
Musically Related to "Little Bird"

Specifically the end: "Little bird up in a tree looked down and sang a song to me, a trout in a shiny brook..."

Quote
Holidays:
Nothing.

Except the tail end, which was used as the "whispering wind" portion of the Smiley Smile version of "Wind Chimes." Also possibly used in the beginning of "Happy Days" on Imagination.

Quote
Love to Say Dada:
Water Chant Used in "Cool Cool Water"

Aaaaaaaand....also in the full "Cool, Cool Water." It's the same chord pattern, with some of the same musical orchestration.

Oh...and the piano riff in "Wind Chimes" was later recycled in "Can't Wait Too Long."

The G minor -> C7 motif in Do You Like Worms which is commonly called "Bicycle Rider" was changed to the key of C# (D#m -> G#7) when it was incorporated into Heroes and Villains for its chorus.

“For me, making music has always been a very spiritual thing, and I think anybody who produces records has to feel that, at least a little bit. Producing a record . . . the idea of taking a song, envisioning the overall sound in my head and then bringing the arrangement to life in the studio . . . well, that gives me satisfaction like nothing else.”

On his '95 "I just wasn't made for these times"-soundtrack, Brian recorded "Wonderful" in the Smile arrangement.

Was the "whispering winds"-part written during/for Smile or for Smiley Smile ?

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I'm not sure when the vocal part was written, but even though it's a capella it fits on top of the end part of Holidays perfectly, so it's Brian reusing that same melody or whatnot.

Nice catch. I never thought of "Remember the Day.." as being a derivitive of "wahala lul lei".  3D

I don't hear the worms/little Pad connection - what is this? Somebody recently suggested that the chorus melody of Little Pad sounds like an offspring of H&V, specifically the western theme melody, which I can hear.

The Dada intro is also a reworking of the wahalaluley melody from Worms, but obviously Dada wasn't from a later album so doesn't qualify for this thread.

Heroes and Villains:
Released on Smiley Smile

Also, the "Heroes and Villains" theme/chants inspired the organ part on "Gettin' Hungry."

Yes, the "Hawaiian" part of "Worms" is the vocal melody of "Whistle In" (with some adjustment), but it's also laid over the chorus of "Look" (which answers your question about "Look"), which provides the music for "Whistle In."

Similar rhythm, but the melodies/chords aren't similar at all. I would chalk this one up to coincidence, as I would "Worms" being related to "Little Pad".

They're much closer than "Worms" and "Little Pad."

Remember the day (Wahala loo lay) / Remember the night (wahala loo la) / All day long (Keenee waka poo la)

Play them back to back.

All "Pad" has in common with Smile is woodshop sounds, the mention of Hawaii, and a title similar to "Cabin Essence."

That vocal line in "Vega-tables" with the top ascending and the bottom descending later was reworked to become "Going On" from KTSA.

Actually, the melody is pretty much exactly the same and given how close they were recorded and that Brian was recycling or reworkng much of Smile on Smiley, it's difficult to suggest that this is a coincidence.

"Pretty much exactly the same"? You lot tone deaf?

"Worms?" has nothing to do with "Little Pad" or "Whistle In". The "Worms?" section with the Hawaiian chanting is slightly similar to the "Remember a day" melody in terms of rhythm, but only about half-similar, and the melodies themselves are almost completely different.

Not everything on Smiley Smile was recycled, keep in mind. I don't hear the "Tones" and "Little Pad" similarities, either, and I'm not sure why anyone would just pull it out of their ass that Carl wrote "Tones" considering Brian wrote basically everything in those days.
