The Smiley Smile Message Board

A fine thread indeed, but I see a number of things that folks seem to have changed their mind on in the last five years, or things that have come to light since then. For instance...

Debate over the prominent "Not for us now!" line in "All Summer Long" appeared recently.

More than just Brian's vocal for "Hang On To Your Ego" has been officially released, I believe with the same vocal parts in the final "I Know There's An Answer" version but with the "Ego" lyrics.

"Do You Like Worms?" - shouldn't the verses be listed as "group"?

The Tony Asher lyric on "Good Vibrations" is sung by Carl, not Brian.

Most folks concluded that Brian and not Dennis sang the "Close your eyes and lean back now" line of the Smiley "Wind Chimes" (needs further discussion)

Several Smile-era tracks were released on The Smile Session that are worth evaluating - the Brian/Mike tradeoff verses of "Heroes", the Carl-sung "Rock With Me Henry" "Wonderful", Mike sung "Vege-Tables" demo, "Teeter Totter Love" (o god), etc.

Also, what about noting alternate mixes that have gotten out from non-official sources? The Mike sung "Please Let Me Wonder" or the version of "Do It Again" where Brian sings the bridge, for instance? How about unreleased tracks, sorted era?

Also, I will fight to the death on the issue of Brian, not Mike, doing the bass vocal on "I Love To Say Dada" >;(

Yay? Nay?

Yay - That was/is my favorite thread on this board. I would love to see it reopened for further fights/debates/contentions.  :lol

YAYUH. Muthafucka had RANGE back in the day.
