Today's song is Our Prayer.
One of the most astonishing achievements in pop. I prefer the slightly filled-out 20/20 version but that's just nit-picking.  |

Well I figured we'd discuss Smiley Smile & TSS would be when we get to it. Paging Watamushi.

Yes but why is such order? TSS was official in 2011. That's very long path to get to Smiley Smile.  |

Then we would have had to discuss songs like All Dressed Up for School and Trombone Dixie after Still Cruisin'. It'd be so confusing, so I decided to go the later basically. |

Superb. One of my favorites, from the "Rock, rock and roll/Plymouth rock, roll over/Rock, rock and roll/Plymouth rock, roll over…" to the chants. It is really an epic trip.

It's hardly a song, more an introduction to a song. As such, it works perfectly. 5. |

5! The vocals are perfect, so many layers in so little time. And I'm a sucker for those pa-pa pa-pa-pa-pas....

Today's song is I'm in Great Shape. There can't be many pop songs whose melody descends more than two octaves in eight bars! Stunning stuff. |
