But... making decisions on the quality of the album because you heard a staged 10 second clip on youtube.... probably makes just as much sense logically as what I supposed. EXACTLY. A few damn seconds...I mean, really?! I agree, it is absurd to freak out over this - but the fact that a random ten second snippet of the album features lyrics calling back to "I Get Around" does not bode well for Mike having learned the hard lessons of "Summer In Paradise." Still, let's reserve judgment for a listen of the full song/album. The track does sound cool, and this could be one of only a few cheesy references - or the lyics could be totally different from what we saw. Time will tell |

It's good that the band all seem to be getting along and relaxed and enjoying themselves. Gives me hope that they might want to record another album after this one if it does well.

(just a joke. I'm optimistic that the album will be listenable.)

Exactly. I think music wise (forget about the staged singing) it sounds nice but how big is the chance that there's just one piece of this kind of lyrics on the whole album and they would show these seconds ? Not that big I'm afraid. When Mike said he was really working on the lyrics I hoped for something better. But let's wait. Maybe it is the only part on that record. TWGMTR showe how nostalgia can be done tastefully and I hope Mike won't throw that overboard and go with SIP-type lyrics. Mabe it's all just a coincidence. I could imagine that this is "Spring vacation". Though that title sounds more like a rocking tune "get up" "every hotspot in town" would fit lyrically imo |

it would be great if this was "Spring Vacation" because then we could combine the expect ick, with the already heard ick  |

Honestly, maybe it wasn't a reference. "Getting Around" is really a normal motif in music haha

I know it's only 10 seconds, but who the hell is exercising quality control here? Let the finished work speak for itself, but what was profiled really DID sound like two old guys @ the karaoke bar. Someone definitely slipped up here.
Ultimately, the proof is in the recording. Or in the grooves, for the vinyl collectors.

Karaoke = singing along to the track
Vocal recording = singing along to the track.
How do you think they get the vocal sound on there? Osmosis?

As a veteran host of numerous karaoke shows back in the day, I can unequivocally say that the term 'karaoke' is somewhat of a pejorative. All you need is a crowd of frat boys singing 'Margarittaville' to tell you that... |

it would be great if this was "Spring Vacation" because then we could combine the expect ick, with the already heard ick I'll bet 'Spring Vacation' will be an uptempo rock 'n roll song. The title seems like a bid for a party anthem. My guess is that the clip is from 'Think About the Days'. Since it's the lead-off track on the album, it's logical they would want to feature it for a news crew like that. It sounds promising to me although very rough. I have faith right now this album is a winner. |

But those lyrics.... Oh I know. I'm being positive until I hear the full song (on the full album). But just from that clip, I'm bummed that such cool chord changes were sort of wasted on typical cheese lyrics. |

Yes, the lyrics seem simplistic and insipid, but I don't want to panic. There are plenty of good Beach Boys songs that have poor lyrics.

I'm just hoping/praying that all of Mike's Beach Boys song references are relegated to this song and this one alone. Let him have this one...but let's not spoil the rest please!
