Title: "Live Let Live" (Arctic Tale Soundtrack) Post by: Rocky Raccoon on July 31, 2013, 03:13:58 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNPa7BEPN6s
Anybody else think this is one of the best post-Beach Boys songs Brian has written? I know there's another version on That Lucky Old Sun which I personally don't think is as good but this one, wow, this is a fantastic song. It's got Brian singing every part very impressively, probably one of his most enthusiastic vocals with great Van Dyke Parks lyrics. It's too bad it's one of those songs that just kind of got lost as an obscure soundtrack cut because I just think it's brilliant.

They should have taken a lot more care with them.

Van Dyke's words are beautiful and spot on, too.
The Arctic Tale version is nice, but to me, the execution is nowhere near as good as the TLOS version.

You don't listen to a Brian Wilson song for the lead vocals.
