Desper on December 20, 2012, 11:48:35 AM The song is a Dennis co-write anyway... ;) COMMENT: I got mixed up on my initial post because the first time I recorded this song it was with Dennis singing the song. We worked on it for some time, always with him singing. Nothing came of the recordings that Dennis made, only that they were stuck in my memory, along with hearing him sing it many times in concert. But this production with Brian and Carnie, used for this video setting, brings out the qualities that IMHO Dennis was trying to accomplish. So when I found this video, I thought I would share it for what it is and for how it makes me feel. Whoever made the video was right on.~swd Title: Re: Carnie & Brian Wilson -- A dog lovers must see Post by: punkinhead on December 20, 2012, 11:53:47 AM awww, that was really sweet.
I started training as a therapist a month ago for ABA therapy, I can really appreciate this video. Title: Re: Carnie & Brian Wilson -- A dog lovers must see Post by: KittyKat on December 20, 2012, 02:32:36 PM awww, that was really sweet. I started training as a therapist a month ago for ABA therapy, I can really appreciate this video. Animals are good companions for that use because they don't judge. When people see someone of "limited ability" when they see a kid who looks like that little boy in the video, the dog just sees another friendly kid. I also think the Brian/Carnie version of that song works well with the subject of that video. When Joe C. sang it (or even if Dennis Wilson sang it), it seems like a love song to a woman. When Brian and Carnie sing it, it's a love song from father to daughter and vice verse, but it's also two people who were outcasts at times (Brian and his afflictions, Carnie and her weight problems) singing to each other. It's vulnerable and moving and their voices fit that sweet little video.

I like Carnie & Brian's version, too. I believe it was on her "Lullaby"-CD along with "Forever" featuring Marylin but I'm not totally sure. Thanks for the link! Title: Re: Carnie & Brian Wilson -- A dog lovers must see Post by: Don Malcolm on December 27, 2012, 09:49:49 AM Beautiful, Mr. Desper...it's these straight-ahead, human moments that make the BB's music stand out from everyone else's by touching reservoirs of emotion that are rarely tapped by anyone else. As you note, a wonderful job by the videographer in matching the music and visuals. Thanks much for sharing with us, and we are all anxiously awaiting the second edition of your book!

Video >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA8VJh0UJtg ~swd This articulates some of the contradictions of the United States quite well - a nation capable of stomach-turning mawkish sentimentality, but also genuine compassion and creativity. As the other poster said, 'Nice video with unnecessary text. I would have just let the images speak for themselves.' |
