I'd say VDP because no one else could've written anything like what he did and it was absolutely perfect for the project. Unlike Tony Asher (2nd choice) I think he also had a big hand in determining the thematic drive of the album--IE we wouldn't have gotten those songs without his input, where an Asher-less Pet Sounds probably maintains the melodies and angst just inferior lyrics. Van and Brian, in another lifetime, could've been a McCartney/Lennon caliber team, methinks.
