Title: Best BB Song NOT Included on a Boxed Set/Greatest Hits/Rarities Collection Post by: Pet Sounder on May 17, 2012, 04:31:28 PM For me it's either Wild Honey's "Country Air" or Sunflower's "All I Wanna Do". At least far as I know these have never appeared on anything but the original albums. If the "career spanning boxed set" coming out soon includes the stereo version, vocals only or stereo backing track of either of these songs I'll by it just for that alone!

I can see that it never shows up on the greatest hit comps but for heaven's sake not even on the GV Box??? I don't get it, either. It's one of the most simple and beautiful pop ballads I'v ever heard. It's haunting. And the spoken part is great, too. I'd love to see the 1963 video clip of Brian "singing" this at the beach in remastered quality on a DVD someday...Title: Re: Best BB Song NOT Included on a Boxed Set/Greatest Hits/Rarities Collection Post by: hypehat on May 17, 2012, 05:12:28 PM For me it's either Wild Honey's "Country Air" or Sunflower's "All I Wanna Do".

Country Air appears on The Greatest Hits Volume 3, but you're right - hasn't been put on a comp in the CD era.

Also, amirite in that "Your Summer Dream" was only featured on the original album, too? One of their absolute best early songs imo Title: Re: Best BB Song NOT Included on a Boxed Set/Greatest Hits/Rarities Collection Post by: Phoenix on May 17, 2012, 05:46:09 PM It's About Time
How was this not on the box set? Title: Re: Best BB Song NOT Included on a Boxed Set/Greatest Hits/Rarities Collection Post by: Dead Parrot on May 17, 2012, 06:09:26 PM "Where I Belong"

One of their absolute best early songs imo "Your Summer Dream" finally appeared on the "Summer Love Songs" compilation from 2009. Agreed that it's one of the best early songs. Beautiful. Like the rest, I'm also completely flabbergasted "All I Wanna Do" has never appeared on a compilation. It's an elite song that ranks with the best songs the band ever released. From the writing to the production, it's just about perfect. It's criminal so few have been exposed to that song. Hopefully that will change soon.

Title: Re: Best BB Song NOT Included on a Boxed Set/Greatest Hits/Rarities Collection Post by: Eric Aniversario on May 18, 2012, 01:11:33 AM The first songs that popped into my mind were already mentioned above..."Your Summer Dream" and "It's About Time". I agree with those who mentioned "Lonely Sea". I'd also add "It's A Beautiful Day", "Farmer's Daughter", and "Keepin The Summer Alive".
