Title: In My Childhood lyrics? Post by: Jarethon on November 05, 2009, 04:55:41 PM Hello all.
I was wondering if lyrics have ever been seen for In My Childhood. From what I read in Peter Carlin's (awesome) book, Brian had the song pretty much done, and even sent Tony Asher a demo of the song. I am only assuming it had lyrics with it. Based on the sessions I have heard (the official release and the incredible Sea of Tunes) the song was still In My Childhood when the tracking sessions began. Although, now that I think of it, the vocal sessions have the new lyrics... Has anyone seen the lyrics anywhere? Thanks!!!! Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics?

One of the very first questions I asked Tony - nope, no lyrics that he knew about. Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics?

See: I happen to have an album by the Beach Boys bearing just that title. Sort of a test copy. It is quite good, I must say. On a par with SMiLE, but certainly better that the awful Pet Sounds drama. So it does not exist? OK, I will get a lighter then and turn it into a nice ashtray. Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics?

It's pretty cool- it's got a group photo on the back (featuring Brian, but oddly not Mike Love), and says 'produced by Mike Love' on it. Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics?

Or crazy. Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics? Post by: Alex on November 12, 2009, 10:50:34 AM I loooove Remember the Zoo!!
Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics? Post by: punkinhead on November 12, 2009, 05:05:57 PM Remember the Zoo is a great concept for us BW fanatics...it's the pre-show of Pet Sounds, which we all pretty much believe to be Today!/Summer Days...but this is even closer. Some compare the 'Little Girl I Once Knew' single to the Strawberry Fields Forever/Penny Lane single because it's a precursor of what's to come for the next album. Remember the Zoo (wonder who came up with that) seems even more quirkier than any of Brian's ideas pre- GV...I believe it would still be rock-symphonic related.

Sadly ....... :-[ ....... it's horrible ....... :afro Title: Re: In My Childhood lyrics? Post by: pixletwin on November 13, 2009, 12:43:08 PM It was always my impression that the name "In My Childhood" was just a working title Brian gave it because that was feeling it gave him.. not because it went with a coherent set of lyrics.
