Possibly the least likely BB seasonal song - "Bells Of Christmas".

I have a Pandora christmas station that I've been listening to throughout the holiday season, and since I gave a thumbs up to a couple of the Beach Boys christmas songs they started giving me some of the rarer christmas songs like Bells of Christmas and Kona Christmas

Very cool. I have a Pandora channel I like called Rockin Holidays, and I've heard the Brian Wilson version of Little Saint Nick on there a couple times.

I heard good ol' "Frosty The Snowman" at Rite Aid last week. The BB take on it is my favorite version (of course).

BW's version of "Deck the Halls" was playing at Goodwill a few weeks ago. Having never listened to his Christmas album, I thought to myself "This sounds like sh*t" right until I realized who it was.

On our way through this "backstage" maze, Bruce joined up with the group and said hello, singing "It Never Rains in Southern California" and joking with some of the older ladies. I'm not sure if they knew he was a Beach Boy or simply an enthusiastic elderly gay gentleman.

I love Brian's Christmas album. Maybe it DOES sound like sh*t in reality and we only like it because we like Brian?

I agree. What's the point of starting new one? Just post there. Anything to get attention, I s'pose.

I thought the point was to draw attention to Christmas tunes in particular...sadly enough, I've only heard Little Saint Nick countless times this season...nothing else yet!

What the difference? There is thread designed to talk about BBs tunes heard in public places. If this thread was for Christmas tunes *only*, then it has very generic title. Re-name or post in the old topic.

The thread I linked to could also accommodate the "The Voice…" thread and the "Big Bang Theiry…" thread. We've also got two George Fest threads… no doubt others could be combined…

Thanks for telling. I'll address the 2 George Fest threads. Time for me to check the board around. Hang on! Beware!

Also "A new (and legitimate) live release" and "1965 archives" which cover the same stuff…

When I used to work at Lowe's Home Improvement, they played Brian Wilson's first #1 single over the PA many times during the summer - that would be Jan and Dean's Surf City.
Also, when Christmas time came around, they played quite a few tracks from The Beach Boys Christmas Album.
PS - I don't really understand what's so wrong with the conversation in a thread veering slightly off topic. It's stream of consciousness, and it's common to everyday conversation. So, what's the big deal?

Black Friday, Nordstrom Rack. I'm standing in line and Frosty The Snowman comes on, so I'm happy. Meanwhile, I spot the eye shadow primer I use for half as much as I usually pay for it at Sephora and then the handful of gifts I was buying were all covered by the leftover balance on a gift card I had at the bottom of my purse from last Christmas. A great two minutes for me.
