A new answer for Brian's favorite movie!
"The Birds by Alfred Hitchcock because it had a sense of humor. Some guys car blew up and he got killed and it made me laugh for some reason running from the birds."

QL: You had a very well publicized battle with depression for a part of your life. What do you credit with helping you break out of it and getting your drive to make all that great music back?
Many thanks for all that music, Brian.
A:
My doctor turned me on to exercise, running was what helped break me out of my depression and get me back to songwriting. That among other things.

What advice do you have to offer to new songwriters? And do you have a favorite Bob Dylan song?
officialbrianwilson 4 points 5 minutes ago
Blowin' In The Wind i like the lyrics. I met Bob Dylan in an emergency hospital in Malibu..he accidentally had his thumb broken. It was a cool place to meet him. I'm a fan of his for sure

Talk about a goldmine interview. A goldmine for Brianisms, that is. The weirdness of the internet and Brian's natural sense of humour mix like gin and fizz.

Q. Could you describe your most vivid childhood memory? Musical or otherwise?
A. The first time that my brothers and I saw the ocean. My dad brought us there. That was the most memorable part of my childhood.

Hey Brian, what made you make the decision to get back in touch with Blondie Chaplin? Personally I think it's a great reunion and I can't wait to hear all of "Sail Away" and see you guys on tour!
officialbrianwilson 2 points 3 minutes ago
Blondies voice was the only decision we needed he adds so much to the songs he's on. Can't wait to go on tour with him!

Q. Mr. Wilson, are you a TV game show fan? Which one would you like to a contestant?
A. Wheel of Fortune I love game shows. I watch Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy everyday. I would love to go on but I don't think I'd be very good haha
Q. How was it filming with the cast of Full House? For some reason that's one of the only episodes I remember!
A. I've never been on Full House
Q. What's one little-known fact about you or your life that you'd like people to know?
A. That I'm deaf in my right ear and that I used to do transcendental meditation at my house. Most people don't know that.
Q. What makes you cringe when you hear a bad tune? Any cliche's that bug you?
A. It bugs me when people sing flat

I didn't think there was an overlap between Wheel of Fortune fans and Jeopardy fans.
Also, I think there were two Full House BB episodes and Brian was in one of them, correct?

Watching Brian’s 1989 appearance on “Full House” will now be infinitely more amusing. I’ll now watch it assuming the experience was so cheesy and traumatizing that Brian blocked it out of his memory.

"Hey Brian! What is your favorite song from the Love You album?"
""Ding Dang" because I like my brother Carl's vocal"
Different answer to what he said here.

It’s sad that I know this, but I think there are three or four BB appearances on “Full House.” There’s the first one (DJ wins tickets to the BB show and doesn’t know who to take) with all five BB’s. Then Mike made an appearance on an episode singing “Be True to Your School” a year or two later. Then there are one or two episodes in the SIP/Forever era with Mike and Bruce (and also Carl in the “music video” for “Forever”); these are the ones where Bruce makes the decision to “allow” Uncle Jesse to cover “Forever”, ignoring that anybody can cover any song as long as they pay royalties.

The *best* part of these interviews is when we get a different answer. Seriously. Brian does seem to still have an affinity for “Ding Dang.” He abruptly started playing it when he did that QVC live show back in 2000.

Oh, I didn't see that.
Good Q&A. He sounded like he was having fun.

What's under Mike Love's baseball cap?
officialbrianwilson 1 point just now
A bald head.
How do these things work? Someone is reading him the questions and skipped all the previous music-related questions to ask him this one? Lol.
That was my favorite one. Hilarious in its honesty.
