You Still Believe in Me.

I like it, but when I'm in a hurry in the car it tends to be one of the tracks I skip.  Sorry.

That's Not Me

I love that it features the Boys on the backing track but (maybe because of that) compared to the rest of the album, it sounds very sparse and out of place.  Also the ending just kinda goes away (to the city?) and feels kind of weak.

Does anyone think that God Only Knows will NOT be the last one standing?

I Know There's An Answer (though there's probably not a good one as to why this song outlasted "Let's Go Away for Awhile")

Let's Go Away for Awhile is an underrated track IMO.

That's Not Me.

It sounds superb, but it just kinda doesn't really go anywhere (which perhaps was Brian's intention, but still...)

Sad to see so many votes for I Know There's An Answer - that echo-y piano just get me every time. Love it!

Brian on why he loves God Only Knows: "Because Paul McCartney said it was his favourite song"

(NOT A VOTE POST, PIXLETWIN). I realize "That's Not Me" may not be one of the strongest tracks, but I'm surprised to see it getting voted out so early. To me, that is one of those tunes that embodies the "Pet Sounds mentality" - one of the reasons this album changed my life and changed my perspective on other music and society. The instrumentation isn't sparse - I love the abstract floor hits from Dennis, and the way the tambourine alternately contrasts those hits. It's got that infamous plucked guitar and bass sound - the one that everyone goes for when they try to do a PS soundalike. The lyrics! Haven't you ever done something on your own, been scared, and realized it's not for you? You wanna go back to the way things were? Maybe you can, maybe you can't....And finally, Mike's vocals. They might not be perfect, they might not be beautiful - but they are so suited to this song. For a guy who might not have been enthused with the sessions, he puts his heart and soul into it and there's undeniable emotion and attachment in his voice. The harmony swell going into the bridge is sublime, and the vocal take-over from Mike to Brian is a moment of bliss.

Yeah.
