Wouldn't It Be Nice To Live Again

[Sunflowerpet]

I wish that I could spread the wealth but I promised that I would not share. 

Thank you! I don't regret to have sent you this sample for free. I realize that 30 seconds is really short but I sent 1:30 to people who accepted to sell me a CD from their collection. Hope you understand.

I expect to make more deals in August since WIBNTLA won't be on MIC.

Regarding the length of the track, my version is about 4:30 minutes long with about 3:30 minutes which are the song in itself and the last minute which is a jam. Where the information about a 7 minutes version come from?

The really truth is that when MIC is released in August you won't feel so "special" anymore.
"DEAL" with it.

A degree of reconciliation... new Beach Boys album... 70+ date world tour... live album.

Totally agree with you but Dennis is still dead, no? And if I'm not wrong, the problem is with Dennis?

[Iron Horse-Apples]

Some people refused to deal with me because they expect that it will be on MIC.

Even if it's not, I still won't trade with you for a incomplete MP3 song. That's like swopping Mayfair for Old Kent Road.

This is because you don't really want the song... And the track is in WAV...

I do want the song. Its just if I traded one of my CD's, I'd want the whole song, not half of it.

When did this guy turn into a troll?

Who wants half or a bit of a track? It'd be worse than having the full thing. I'd rather wait til my deathbed to hear it than have an incomplete track.

You are entirely wrong. Just about everyone around here knows why it wasn't on TWOTS... except you, evidently. Nothing to do with Dennis or his estate (who, as you may, but likely don't, kniw, have no vote in the BRI setup). Plus, it's a Beach Boys recording, not a DW solo track.

Listen, I'm trying to be a little sunbeam for Jesus, but you spouting nonsense like this, and hawking snips of the track to improve your CD collection (which BTW is illegal unless you have a clearence from BRI), is making it a bit difficult. You evidently don't know much the (non-) release history of the song and you're making totally unsupported definitive statements from a position of almost complete ignorance. You have to be some kin to Eeyore.

Do you think someone fro BRI might come over and play you the song if you said you were dying? It's worth a try.

I can feel your restraint. Maybe go and have a cup of tea and enjoy one of those CD's beachboysfrance doesn't have

I've got a pretty bad case of the manflu- surely that's worth a blast down the phone?

Deep breath, c'mon man, you CAN do this.

are you saying you sent people 1:30 of the track for an entire CD for you to add to your collection? so no one else has the full version track?

Yes and Yes. Don't forget that I paid for the CDs. The sample is only a gift. I don't want make money with the track. And I've sent only a sample because I want to keep the control of the track. I mean, I want to be able to identify the source if the track surfaces on the Internet. Also, if I have problem with BRI, I want to be able to say "hey, I didn't share the whole track!".

He has nothing I don't have (except the tea; I hate this)!

Wrong again - that settles it, you ARE Eeyore !

Love to see you try that defence in court - it's copyrighted material, which means all or any part of it. You don't have a clearence from BRI, you're infringing that copyright. Lennon got done for, what, two lines in "Come Together".

Oh, and conducting such 'transactions' on a forum that BRI are known to monitor might not be the smartest move.

Who the hell said WIBNTLA wasn't going to be on the set?! Source, please.

[Steve Mayo]

the last 3 pages of this thread have gotten rather lively! the board is becoming alive again & i'm enjoying the hell out of this! 

[Andrew G. Doe]

Who the hell said WIBNTLA wasn't going to be on the set?! Source, please.

Dude who wants to be able to keep building his CD collection by hawking 30-second clips illegally.

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

I can't believe I let this go on this long... those who cannot wait until August please conduct transactions through pm or email rather than the board.

[Iron Horse-Apples]

Sorry Billy, but I just want to see who wants to swop me a slap up meal at the Savoy for my half eaten sandwich.

[Freddie French-Pounce]

I've got time now I'm alive...

But in seriousness, this is a great read. beachboys_fr seemed so innocent to what he had, now he seems to be to leading man.

[Andrew G. Doe]

Which side ?

Wow you just went from "understandably opportunistic" to "gigantic smelly douche bag" in a lot of people's eyes .

The eaten side

[SMiLE Brian]

All this back and forth over one song is driving me nuts. Its one DW song that is probably great, but nothing magnificent like BW's best works. If people agreed to the offer by beachboys_fr, so be it. If others are waiting for MIC set to have it, thats the way to go in my opinion.

[BergenWhitesMoustache]

Fixed.

Brian couldn't touch Dennis, post 'til I die', in my opinion. Ridiculous as this thread is, from what i've heard (an apparently faithful cover, LOTS of high praise from those who've heard it), and the context of the time (DW at his peak), I'd bet money this track is pretty fucking great.
