Best one thus far. Recording sounds slick, and your interpretation is fantastic. Really loved the tag. Thumbs up all around.

Kayla,
  Do you write your OWN music?  I've been watching your stuff for a while now and you're extremely talented.

  Have you thought about forming your own group?
  I especially love your version of "Let The Wind Blow". That song has always been one of my favorites. Especially the version off of "In Concert 1973".

  Keep up the excellent job that you're Passionately enjoying!

Cheers,
 Big Bri

I thought the arrangements on the verses, in particular the 2nd verse (was that a harpsichord?) sound much better and fully realised than the Beach Boys version. I'll maintain always that Wild Honey is a collection of demos for a great album, nothing more.

[Menace Wilson]

I like how you left in those extra beats at the beginning of the "bahh..ba ba ba..." section (which I always suspected was a bad edit in the original) and the false start in the bass coming out of it.

Thanks for your comments and everyones, I really enjoyed making this one!

Yesssss! That was another excellent cover of a wickedly fun track -- and I think I like your arrangement more! I would definitely bake you a pie too, haha -- alas, I don't think Canada Post appreciates foodstuffs being mailed coast-to-coast. Figures all the Beach Boys fans are in Vancouver!

Kayla:

For a one woman do it all singer/instrumemtalist you are really nailing the essence of Brian's music and your videos are polished with your own unique style.  Best of all you have the pipes to make any song you do worth hearing again and again.  Many thanks and congrats for the well-deserved praise coming your way!

This is a song that was written as a tribute to the BB. I liked it and lended my vocals - enjoy!

Another great one, Kayla!

[GLarson432]

It sounds great but I'd like to know the lyrics.  There is so much reverb or whatever that I can make out very little of what's being sung.  Google was no help.

[Andrew G. Doe]

Most songs that comprise of lists of song titles aren't very good, but this is fun. 

[markcharles75]

Really excellent cover Kayla.  This girl is so damn talented.  Fun song, yet strangely, I was getting emotional listening to it!

I would agree with you here, but I thought it was pretty cute

It sounds great but I'd like to know the lyrics.  There is so much reverb or whatever that I can make out very little of what's being sung.  Google was no help.

Here are the lyrics:
 

God only knows how many tunes
I´ve listened to in my room
Songs of endless summer
And the Surfer Moon
Made me cuddle up with a surfer girl (Surfer Boy )
In the California Sand
I caught a wave while I fell in love to
The rhythm of a steel drum band


Chorus:
The First American Band
From Southern California
A Cousin and a Friend
Along with three brothers
They made their Mamas cry
With every single song
Their story isn´t over
As long as their music plays on

 

Verse:
Caroline my little girl
Oh, where did your long hair go?
You are no longer the sweet thing
That I used to know

I will pick you up in my 4-0-9
We’ll cruise the hamburger stands
Because, everything is just fine
When they play “Do you wanna dance”


Chorus:
The First American Band
From Southern California
A Cousin and a Friend
Along with three brothers
They made their Mamas cry
With every single song
Their story isn´t over
As long as their music plays on

[Surfing Moose]

Kayla, I enjoy listening (and watching) your songs and I can't wait to hear your next cover. I'm excited to see, what song you will choose next.

Keep up the excellent work!

How dare you take a cheap shot at "Smart Girls" like that! 

[GLarson432]

Kayla -- Thanks very much for the lyrics.  I've printed them out and will 'learn' them upon a few more listens.

Good job!
