With the couple of good recent interviews posted here recently, it got me thinking. If you had the chance to ask Brian one question and one question only, what would it be? I'll start:
"Brian, you have stated that when you write a song, you hear the different vocal parts in your mind. When you write a song today, do you still hear the voices of Mike, Carl, Al and Dennis in your mind, or do you just hear the various ranges?"

As best as you can remember, what the closest final sequence for SMiLE in 1967 (i.e. What was the opener, closer, The Elements, etc.)?

First question that comes to mind:
Looking back, who would you rather have been in this life: Brian Wilson, or some average Joe who never acchieved anything noteworthy but has always been happy?

Can you get me all the Smile era acetates in your and Marilyn's possession and play them for me, and sing the vocals over the top of the instrumental tracks?

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.
What is this "life" thing you speak of ?
Syncopate it? In front of all these people?!

Following up on my question, I think it would be fun if somebody did a real in-depth interview on food with Brian. Next to music, food seems to be one of biggest loves. There's probably a lot of weird things you could learn indirectly through food-related anecdotes...

Brian: Summer In Paradise is the worst album ever. Period. I've never listened to it. |
