this song is a dream for joe thomas/adult contemporary fans.

"hey, little tomboy"

some of you make me wonder if humans are still the most intelligent mammals on the planet.

this article was pretty much a bore.

Rule #1: Do NOT criticize the use of autotune on any BB song.   

anything Joe Thomas is involved with.

Here's a question:

How much does Joe Thomas know about Brian and The Beach Boys' history, and their catalog of music? I'm geniunely interested.

A great deal. His favorite album of theirs is Surf's Up, followed IIRC, by Sunflower.

+1 for Joe in my book.

"It was during this period that Brian was being coerced away from Andy Paley (by wife Melinda, according to observers), toward Joe Thomas, a former WBA wrestler, co-founder of the Adult Contemporary stronghold, River North Records, and producer of, as O'Hagan puts it, "real right-wing country artists." Wilson's lack of interest in the O'Hagan project manifested itself at dinner that night.

"I could already tell it was never going to happen," says O'Hagan. "The whole thing was absurd. As far as I can see, Joe Thomas hasn't got a clue about Brian Wilson or his legacy. It's all just 'Little Deuce Coupe' to him. He wanted Brian to make a big Eighties ballad record, all cavernous snares. He kept referring to Brian's potential as an Adult Contemporary crossover artist. I sad, 'Don't you realize Brian Wilson is essentially a 20th-century avant-garde pop genius?' And he went, 'Avant-garde? Not the Brian Wilson I know' "


f*ck u and f*ck joe too.

Joe Thomas +1000

O'Hagan's account should be taken with a grain of salt. Brian did not care for him at all.

And he had a strong bias against the lead singer of the band he was supposed to produce.

Brian wasn't interested in working with a knock-off artist like O'Hagan, and was creeped out by him personally.

Bruce Johnston: "Brian was a little intimidated by Sean, in the same way that Gershwin may have been intimidated by Oscar Levant."

Oh, and in regards to having a 'strong bias' against the lead singer, maybe this had something to do with it: "Mike Love was less than hospitable. "He called me a f****t straight away, because I'm from England. 'You're all f*ggots,' he said. I was stunned. "

f*** u and f*** joe too.

debatable, but the harmonies brian wrote post 65'  were so much more advanced and complex than their predecessors. imo.

runnersdialzero should be a mod, imo.
