I have actually 'written' this song in my head, strangely enough. I keep toying with the idea of actually figuring out what I'm hearing, but I'm not near a musical instrument atm..... but it sounds good to me - lyrics like Add Some Music with soft verses and a stomping chorus. Am I going mad?

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

So what was the reason for God to make the radio, then?

To allow Kokomo to reach #1 on the charts.

God must’ve smiled the day Brian Wilson was born!

By now this thread may be seen as historic.
I mean, there's this single that no one has heard. There was speculation on the basis fo some interview quotes. On who wrote it. On when it actually was written and composed. We got to 10 pages by now and there certainly will be more. There was, um, 'an incident'. A poster got banned. We did extensive research on the antics and whereabouts of the Mob, in Las Vegas and elsewhere. We are none the wiser.
Speak for yourself.
Given the co-writers involved, I'd guess it dates back to the
Imagination
period, or maybe slightly after, as with "GIOMH" (the recording thereof, of course).

The thread certainly did take an odd, odd turn. Usually, when you start seeing posts referencing Neville Chamberlain (on a, um, a Beach Boys board), that means things are getting wacky........
SO, now we are back to speculating about. Not. A. Whole. Lot.
But that's ok!
Cos this whole Celebration thing is gonna knock our socks through the roof!

So, when could be the release date of the single? Sometime in late May ahead of the album?

I like the points of reference so far - something along the lines of Imagination meets Add Some Music, with Sunflower-era production sensibilities, and you can colour me happy. I don't like much BB-stuff from that late-80s/early 90s era, but I looooves me some Imagination. I almost like the heavy tinsel production....

Looks like Heinrich Rudolph Hertz first demonstrated the existance of radio waves with Gugliemo Marconi developing it and Nikola Tesla getting the first patent for a radio transmitter.
I wonder if these guys are mentioned in the lyrics.
