Al looks like a corpse. Poor guy.
I love Al but I have to agree. He hasn't come off all that well in the recent SMiLE interviews or this and I'm not talking about his appearance either. I don't get wrapped up in stuff like that but he just seems very awkward up there. Maybe interviews aren't his thing which is more than understandable.

Getting off the topic of looks (who cares anyway?) the harmonies are so beautiful. Just to have the chance once again to listen in who'd have thunk it?

For me, not an instant favorite but really quite pleasant. Most importantly, it doesn't sound too forced (except maybe for some of the lyrics).
Sounds kind of retro without reverting to the fun-in-the-sun stuff, which is quite an accomplishment considering this is their 50th-anniversary single.
I don't expect this new album to be anywhere near as good as their 60s and 70s output but maybe we'll get another TLOS!

Considering this is the group's first true collaboration in a very long time, we are really off to a great start.

Absolutely.
I I think it's a good vocal blend, and Thomas has done a good job production wise, i.e it doesn't sound like the Imagination LP to these ears
It is also as far removed from Summer In Paradise as we can get.

If this comes anywhere close to TLOS I think we'll honestly have that classic album that we all wanted The Beach Boys to go out on. It's a lot to ask for a band cruising towards seventy to be able to match the output of what they were capable of in their twenties but as it's been mentioned many times over there is virtually nothing the group can do in 2012 that can disturb their rich legacy of music from the sixties.
There will be those reviewers and critics too myopic to appreciate what is truly going on here and I guess some fans will fall in that vein as well. The thing that will always hit home for me is that my other favorite band (The Beatles) never got and will never get the opportunity to do something like this. There are also numerous other groups that never had a chance to have one more go around either. I think with the anniversary, the album and the tour this has the potential to be something extremely special and if nothing else I hope the band has a great summer performing around the world together one more time.

You can never do better than the closing medley of Abbey Road, though. I think the fact that they did that made any post-group reunion irrelevant. They wrapped it up better than perfectly -- they did it
iconically

I think JT is involved, but I've begun to doubt that he's actually producing the record. Probyn -- and then, most importantly, Al -- have both called him an executive producer.

To me it sounds very much in line with Brian's solo stuff from the last decade, with one BIG difference -
those Beach Boy harmonies
. It turns a good song into a great one. Looks like we're getting the real deal here.

I'm a bit out of the loop with this BB 50 thing and have to say I have pretty low expectations when it comes to new material however this song is a pleasant surprise. The chords and complexity of the harmonies have Brian written all over them - I'm looking forward to hearing this properly.
Listening again, this is really impressive, even if the production is a little polished for my tastes. Beautiful stuff.

Who's voice is it after the first chorus before mike starts talking how the song is an accolade?the one singing "that's why god made the radio".
I'd say Al...or maybe Brian.
Seems like Bruce, and he sounds soo great!

Offensive and disrespectful, indeed.
Plus Al does look great these days. Just look at the clips from the record store the other day. But I guess the original poster does not care.
