I like "Moon Dawg" for how it's the only surf "instrumental" they did which features vocal harmony.

It was the second most voted for track in round one, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it voted off this round.

It's just a vote. It's not like we're expelling it from the album forever. As is any other thread here discussing songs, we are not all in perfect agreement about what is good and not so good. It's just for fun.

With this particular slate of songs really anything could go at any time. I personally think 409 will stand as the sole survivor here. That and County Fair are about the only tracks without votes yet, I think....

Man, I do not understand how "Ten Little Indians" can get so many votes. It's both cute coming from a group of kids and also possibly the most hilariously inappropriate song in their released catalog. Coming from the band who put out "Hey Little Tomboy", that's saying a lot. So, so much charm on that song. BREAKS MAH HEART Cry

Same goes for "County Fair", except it's not inappropriate, just a cute, loveable little song. SO LOVEABLE. Did you guys even notice the seamlessly applied organ part in the chorus is actually playing "Over The Waves" in 4/4 instead of waltz timing? That's so clever! Well, for their age. But come on! Even when Brian's ruthless father had a knife in his back and said "Dance, monkey!", Brian was putting a lot of thought and effort into this stuff. Folks are so ready to write this album off, but damn it, the early signs of genius are all over the place. Maybe not fully there yet, but certainly implied or in some kind of embryonic form.

I'm just glad nobody voted for "Chug-A-Lug" because "wat the fuck who writes a song about root beer i only like serious music, man" or I might have to really go fucking apewaste on you all, here.

Charm, man. This album haz it.

Changed my stance on Cookoo, that nifty organ break...

Hard decisions -these songs are all a good time.

You answered your own question. "Cute" from a group of kids. Teenagers in a Rock & Roll band singing a kiddie song. It's too cute. Doesn't belong on an album with surf and Rock & Roll originals and covers. It had no business being a single. It didn't promote the band or do them justice in the Surf/Rock culture. Ever hear a garage band cover Ten Little Indians?

If I sang this song at work I'd be called into HR for harassment. Lot of East Indians in my company. Grin

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

I like all the songs too. Also all the recordings, which I can't say of all BB albums.

Chug-a-Lug, as it is basically a re-write of Surfin', which isn't very interesting to begin with.  I like root beer, but I don't care about lyrics.

idk, man, idk. I usually agree with you on most things but "Ten Little Indians"... i can't runnerz, i can't  Cry

It's not even the political correctness. I mean, maybe a little, but I understand there's a huge difference between "Ten Little Indians" and something like "Blurred Lines" since the former wasn't written by a 36 year old dude in 2013.

I think my main problem is that it has too many clashing ideas. Native American chanting, surf guitar, nursery rhyme melody. It sounds ambitious on paper but the execution is lacking. Too busy an arrangement and too rushed a performance for my liking.

*flips off negativity switch*

"County Fair" gets me rly hard and is totally brainz wilson in a nutshell!!!

That's something I can fully agree with you on. Love the melody, love the lyrics, love the spoken parts, love the organ, love all of it. Great Mike vocal. Not among his technical best but I just can't imagine anyone else singing it.
