Macca must have been busy.
He was pissed off they didn't choose "the frog chorus"

I must be an old grouch, because to me it's just cheese. But if people are liking it, great.

Yeah they really ran Brian's vocal through the machine.
But it was great to see him end the video.
Love Brian!!!!
Actually , no. This thing has been in the works for about four months...Brian doubled his vocal with echo becasuse thats the way he recorded Carl on the original. Tottaly agree on both counts. Super to catch this on bbc3 as a total surprise ...? Wife..wife.... Look ! She said ' Oh' I agree that Brian sounded like a Beach Boy ...... more than anyone else. In 2014 !! Also , he is singing it really high ; different sound, at least to me

Lovely...and thank you for pointing it out. Is that Brian's original production patched-in at the 1-minute point (when he appears)? Or a reproduction.
Actually no, not the original. Brian played the piano, doubled the vocals and mixed it.....I think he did it three times before he was satisfied

Thank you for posting this. I enjoyed it very much. I wish they would've included the final verse after the bridge, though. I like those kind of montages, like they did with this and "Perfect Day" a few years ago. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Elton John was on that one, too.

John, have you tried to get your daughter to like the BBs instead? Oooooh yes. She LOVES H&V – dances to it – and IGA. Both she and 2yo Jack dig Rhonda and Steph gets very pissed off when they refuse to go to sleep unless she's sung the Ba-ba song. "Ba Ba Black Sheep?" says she? "No, BARBARA ANN!" they chorus… Just doing my bit…

this is just awesome! Brian must be feeling pretty f*cking great right about now. God only knows he deserves this kind of honor and attention.
wish I recognized a few more of the artists, but it's great to see the youngsters getting involved and paying tribute.
Ray Davies would have been really good to see... maybe Chrissie kept him away?
as always, thank you Ray Lawlor for your knowing posts!

My only very small complaint is that they left the snare hits out of that part at 1:20

Like the way that the stage Brian's "sat" on could be a tip to the Smile smile cover. But I'm worried that he was not concerned by the tiger and fear that he is vulnerable to big cat attack.

Very, very cool to see this and I have big hopes it may even send the original back into the charts. The absolute icing on the cake was to see Brian himself on it.

This has been a lovely evening. Many thanks to Buddhahat, Lowbacca, & Pretty Funky for the heads up and the links to the vids and thank you Smilers for your company. Very, very cool to see this and I have big hopes it may even send the original back into the charts. The absolute icing on the cake was to see Brian himself on it.
Very nice thought, Tablevega, though I don't think the original will chart. This new version is a very serious contender for a Number One though – so many stars old and young and from different disciplines, so much BBC airtime, Children In Need charity angle – and will probably be on the charts overnight – it goes on sale midnight tonight. I can see Pet Sounds selling a good few copies on the strength of it, and "Best Ofs… " will probably fly off the shelves* again. What will Mr Wilson make of being at Number One again, at last, I wonder? And will he rush out a Still Cruisin'-type album to cash-in quick? Probably (hopefully) not. Good night everyone!** * = servers. ** Steph doesn't sing Barbara Ann to me…

Holy crap! Well, I'd say Capitol has its act together. No doubt the album/single plans were put on hold until this could be out there. An amazing thing for Brian to be part of -- and it wouldn't be BW if it didn't look a just a little uncomfortable.

This very thought. It's a charity single and deserves some air before NPP is out there. Wise move all round.
