Why the bad words?  Is it necessary?  You mad?

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 don't see the "megacreepiness" in it. Only thing I see weird about it is that somebody's trying to get 400 smackers for it. The service at the chapel in Inglewood Cemetery lasted about 30 minutes. Shawn and Jennifer read a passage from the Corinthians and they played "End Of The Show" from P.O.B. A few days later he was buried at sea.

I heard all of this in my head like it was from a Wesley Willis song. I was also inspired to write a Wesley Willis-styled song in response to this post, but it would be in poor taste to post it.

I wonder who the person is that put it up for sale? Whoever it is attended the service. Yeah, nothing creepy about that at all.  Roll Eyes

No way would I pay $400 - or $4 - for that without a family member OKing it. Looks very dubious to me.

Didn't they play "The air that I breath" by the Hollies? I thought I read that somewhere (unfortunately I don't remember where). Shawn said it was Dennis' favorite and that's why they played it. And while he was buried "Farewell my friend" was played. Again, this is all just a shady memory from where I read it and I don't know if I recall it correctly. Of course "The air that I breathe" although being a beautiful song (that the Beach Boys themselves sang backing vocals to a few years later for Enrique Iglesias) could be interpreted as being in bad taste when played at the funeral for someone who drowned.

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I thought Dennis' middle name was " Gage "..... I could be wrong though.

You are entirely wrong: Dennis' middle name was Carl (after his grandpa Korthof). Murry's middle name was Gage.

The story I read in the Gaines book was that Dennis' favourite current song was "Every Step You Take" by Police.  Apparently Shawn wanted it played but the exes wanted "Farewell My Friend".

Actually the title would be "Every Breath You Take" -- which would be in poor taste for a drowning victim IMO.

I thought I read somewhere that the Beach Boys sang something a cappella.  I've never seen a title listed anywhere, only that it was "an appropriate choice" IIRC.

Denny liked "Every Breath You Take"? Cool.

Also, I don't think it's inappropriate at all. Just because a song mentions "breath" or "the air I breathe" etc. doesn't mean it has to be in poor taste.

I guess we'll never know if the exes vetoed it because of the title as it relates to Dennis' cause of death -- or just because Dennis' own song was more poignant and appropriate.  I would guess the latter.
