Could someone please tell me who says:

"Not for us now!" on All Summer Long (All Summer Long)

and

"You're under arrest!" in the Cantina section of Heroes and Villains.

Much appreciated.

I just cranked this song up recently and I thought "Why on earth didn't they work on this and release this as a single?!"

It's such a good song and with proper promotion could have full well have hit number 1 somewhere.

I love Soulful Old Man Sunshine (or should I say Shunshine), any reasons why they scrapped this?

IIRC, because of the incorrect saying of word "sunshine" as "shunshine". So Carl asked other bandmates or whomever not to release it in any comp or album but, as you know, it WAS included on Endless Harmony ST.

I myself think the flaw isn't so noticeable and the song definitely was worth releasing in time when it was composed. Very bright & catchy tune indeed! I agree with that it'd be a huge hit single. Who cares about one small word error when the whole song is absolute gem?

If that was the case, wouldn't he have just re-recorded the vocals?

I know, I know. This thread has been made a million times, but I won't bother to traipse through the archives. So, the question(s): What do you think would have happened if SMiLE was released? Would it have been a success? Dawning a new Beach Boys-led era of music?

I'm interested to hear your thoughts. 

I don't know.

haha, you know what? I knew this would happen hahaha

Hi, does anyone have any information on the track "I Don't Know" by Dennis from TSS? I'm really curious about this track and if anyone has any information behind it that would be great.

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows why Dennis wasn't in the Sloop John B/ Wouldn't It Be Nice promotional video?

Thanks

[I'm Waiting For The Day (Pet Sounds)]

1. I'm Waiting For The Day (Pet Sounds)

Probably one of the more underrated songs on Pet Sounds. That Timpani, those strings! But the sincerity of the lyrics just pull at me, Brian's yearning and naive pleading with the one he loves is just transcendent (Even if he didn't like his vocals). The tag at the end is so creative and let me just mention again: That Timpani!

2. Let Him Run Wild (Summer Days (and Summer Nights!!!))

What can I say? Pop at it's finest and the chorus' are just brilliant. Just such a fun song to listen to, Brian makes you want her to leave the other guy so bad.

3. Forever (Sunflower)

Dennis at his best, his vocals are at it's peak and his writing is glorious. Special mention to Carl's falsetto in the outro. Such a sweet and thoughtful song.

4. Slip On Through (Sunflower)

Dennis again. Every time I start Sunflower up and I hear that intro, I realise Dennis' brilliance. Another great, soulful Beach Boys tune which is nailed by Dennis' peak vocals.

5. Darlin' (Wild Honey)

Carl really rips this one and it's one of the greatest vocal performances by one of the greatest and underrated singers of all time.

6. God Only Knows (Pet Sounds)

Another of Carl's fantastic vocals. Tony and Brian have honestly written the perfect song (It's not higher because it's not my favourite). It's bitter/sweet and that outro vocal tag with Brian, Bruce and Carl is one of the pivotal and most recognisable vocal pieces in music.

7. OurPrayer/Gee/]Heroes and Villains (The Smile Sessions)

Yes, I know it's three songs, but I count them as one huge, brilliant and loopy suite of fun and zany mad genius.

8. All I Want To Do (20/20)

No, not the Sunflower one, but another of Mike's fantastic vocals and another of Dennis' fantastic writing and sex (quite literally). This is a real hard rocker and the brass during the "Baby" tag always gets me.

9. Break Away

Aw yeah. Carl's brilliant verses blended with Al's ripping chorus' and matched with equally good song writing by Brian and Murry. It's a terrible shame that it never did well in the charts because, really, it's one of the greatest songs out.

10. Keep An Eye On Summer (Shut Down, Vol. 2)

I don't see why hate is directed at this song, it truly is Brian's genius bursting at the seems, even early on. With fantastic vocals and sentimental lyrics, it's only made better by that godly middle eight with Mike and then Brian's "Waiting... and Waiting".

And there you go. My top 10 Beach Boys songs.

Ahk, Thanks a lot!

I guess this for anyone who knows/ or have been to the reunion concerts (:

But my question is does David Marks sing lead on any songs during the reunion concert?

Thanks!

Is everyone able to see this? Or is it just Australia?
