Be True To Your School. Way inferior to the single version and sticks out like a sore thumb here, thematically.

The Brianista Prayer

Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat

A Young Man is Gone.

I prefer Their Hearts Were Full of Spring. I think it just sounds silly with the new lyrics.

A Young Man is Gone.  It really bugs me that they rhyme "without a cause" with... "without a cause."  References to Nick Ray movies are always welcome, but not shoddy lyric-writing.

It's league behind in production/performance at this point.

My new vote goes to A Young Man is Gone. I agree that while the singing is great, the lyrics are really dumb.
