Title: Mike's new song Post by: Lonely Summer on March 27, 2013, 10:47:38 PM (sung to a Kokomo/Summer in Paradise style melody/production) Back in the year of twenty twelve, I got the old band off the shelf, thought it would be fun, fun, fun to reunite, all shake hands and no more fight; spread the good vibrations all across the land, to surfer girls and boys and all shake hands, sing the old songs and do it again, SMiLe onstage and pretend we're friends; did a new album successful show after show, and that's why god made the radio, but when the tour was over all the fights resumed, and our p.r. wasn't autotuned, cause it's not.....(chorus) paradise, paradise, no, it's not so nice, cause we ended, we ended our summer in paradise......the fans wanted us to stay on tour, forever and ever now that's for sure, keep on singing songs of yesterday, songs of summer nights and summer days, but the mike and bruce show couldn't wait, Rhonda and wendy at the seaworld gate, gotta get back to anytown usa, all the casinos we have yet to play, instead of (chorus) paradise, paradise....etc

Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Iron Horse-Apples on March 28, 2013, 02:12:49 AM Writing parodies is fine but its hard to read when its all on one line, every so often you should press enter, maybe set the text to centre, Mike would tell you "don't be a fool", setting out rhyme needs basic rules, even when writing Good Vibrations, Mike used basic punctuation, I'm sorry if you think I'm being a nag, 'cos doing things properly can be a drag, but I'm no stranger to the pen, just press "modify" and try again.

Superb Song/ With Great Intelli-gence Lyrics/ Were By/ My Buddy Pa-arks Our Band/ Sang-Em Like La-arks Can we get that in somewhere? Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: The Shift on March 28, 2013, 03:48:35 AM A resonance chimes within my soul,
Enlightenment is my spiritual goal, Emotions arise, my aura is flowing, Pastural fields of Elysium glowing, Nothing can sooth me, Karma 'yond reach Til me n' my girl make out on the beach… Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: The Heartical Don on March 28, 2013, 04:15:45 AM Excellent thread, this.
Bit of a literary exploration of the mind, soul, and true persona of Michael Edward Love. Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: SMiLE Brian on March 28, 2013, 04:26:28 AM Mike is sooo easy to make fun of..... :lol :lol :lol :lol
Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: The Heartical Don on March 28, 2013, 04:54:06 AM Mike is sooo easy to make fun of..... :lol :lol :lol :lol I am still looking for his opus magnum, the never-released 'Levitation Song'. The central chant is rumoured to be: "Hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop hop" which is pretty adventurous to these ears. Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: SMiLE Brian on March 28, 2013, 06:34:11 AM What ever happened to the follow-up to SIP called "masterpiece" that Mike told goldmine about in 1992?
Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: The Heartical Don on March 28, 2013, 06:42:21 AM What ever happened to the follow-up to SIP called "masterpiece" that Mike told goldmine about in 1992? I guess a release would have brought Mike many lawsuits from real BBs fans, on the grounds of violent physical abuse (e.g. tinnitus). Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: urbanite on March 28, 2013, 07:33:08 AM Didn't Brian also write a song called Forever You Will Be My Surfer Girl?
Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: The Heartical Don on March 28, 2013, 07:41:37 AM Didn't Brian also write a song called Forever You Will Be My Surfer Girl? Hm. Yes. McCarney never wrote: Yesterday I Was A Day Tripper. (I mean: the originality factor is about the same.) Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: JohnMill on March 28, 2013, 08:25:11 AM Didn't Brian also write a song called Forever You Will Be My Surfer Girl? Hm. Yes. McCarney never wrote: Yesterday I Was A Day Tripper. (I mean: the originality factor is about the same.) Yeah but Hari wrote "This Guitar Can't Keep From Crying" and "Here Comes The Moon". Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Rocker on March 28, 2013, 08:31:57 AM Wasn't there a "Return to Pepperland" ?

Superb Song/ With Great Intelli-gence Lyrics/ Were By/ My Buddy Pa-arks Our Band/ Sang-Em Like La-arks Can we get that in somewhere? Thank you! I made an effort to update Mike's revisionism on 'Brian's Back' ('not to mention ole' Pet Sounds'), with a much more improbable storyline.

Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: pixletwin on March 28, 2013, 01:06:21 PM Wasn't there a "Return to Pepperland" ? I think that was an incidental music track by George Martin for the Yellow Submarine movie. Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Banana on March 28, 2013, 05:36:11 PM Yes, incidental music written by George Martin.
Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Lonely Summer on March 28, 2013, 11:24:10 PM IIRC, Return to Pepperland is an unreleased song from Paul, mid-80's. I think Phil Ramone produced it.

Yes, that's the one I was talking about Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Summertime Blooz on March 29, 2013, 12:01:20 PM Since someone brought up the topic of Mike Love lyrics, I was reminded of this rare find that I uncovered some time back, the proposed lyrics for Smile's uncompleted 'The Elements' track:
THE ELEMENTS Music by B. Wilson Lyrics by M. Love Fire, water, earth, and air, Elements are everywhere. On the beach, your car, and pad, They’re not just a passing fad. All around the world you see The Elements in harmony. The wind blows through her long blonde hair, I smell her perfume in the air. A girl like her is cool to find- Mother Nature blows my mind. Old Yeller is my shovel ride. We’re tearin’ down the countryside. Like Mother Earth, it moves my soul, When I’m moving the earth, and digging a hole. Fire hot as the summer sun, Makes me think of fun fun fun. Here comes that shiny red fire truck, Guess that flame’s run out of luck. Like waves that come a-crashin’ down, Near sunny Honolulu town, Water’s cooling down the heat, A glass of it just can’t be beat. Fire, water, earth, and air, Elements are every where, At the local high school hop, The drive-in and the record shop. All around the world you see The Elements in Harmony. Coulda been a hit. Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Aegir on March 29, 2013, 01:24:02 PM A resonance chimes within my soul, Enlightenment is my spiritual goal, Emotions arise, my aura is flowing, Pastural fields of Elysium glowing, Nothing can sooth me, Karma 'yond reach Til me n' my girl make out on the beach… I actually really like this!

M & L: Mike Love Little Bruce Coop You don't know what I got I aint braggin babe so don't put me down He's got the tightest pair of shorts in town When they ride up his ass, man, he don't even cry Cause if he had a plugged-in keyboard, you know he could fly He's my little Bruce coop. You don't know what I got Just my little Bruce coop with a baseball cap He'll fiddle with that mic while he's standin still Gets a lady backstage and she's so damn board She does a hundred out of there with the top end floored He's my little Bruce Coop You don't know what I got He's got a Grammy at home and a solo album And he purrs like a kitten over a Pa-ci-f-ico And if that ain't enough to make you flip your lid There's one more thing: I write his paychecks, daddy And comin off the stage with the lights all green I pull them out of the crowd like you've never seen I get them back to my trailer and it's hard to steer cause Bruce hides my rubbers year after year..... He's my little Bruce Coop You don't know what I got Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Gertie J. on March 29, 2013, 04:17:22 PM ;D

Title: Re: Mike's new song Post by: Lonely Summer on March 29, 2013, 10:37:15 PM I am seriously thinking about recording some of these! Honestly think "Mike Loves You" is a great album title....but alternate title might be T.T.P.O.O.M. Album (Taking the Piss Out of Mike Album).

Make it double! To protect the environment from devastation, To stop cursing in music within our nation. To denounce the evils of the Stones and LSD. To levitate above to the stars we see.
