Just had to get these off my chest… Please don't throw vege-tables at me.

- "Mike's hands have rings all around them"

- Was the reason for the extreme multitude of "Now"s in "Fun Fun Fun" a subliminal promotion (2 years early) of the National Organization for Women by the Lovester?

Altogether the Beach Boys just HAVE to be the band with the most lines ending on now. Here Today comes to mind, and there are many others.

It's merely a songwriting tool.  You need one more syllable to fit the melody so you throw in a "yeah!" or a "huh!" or a grunt or whatever.  The BB's favorite in that era was apparently "now".
