I know this isn't possible, but some of the Wilson/Paley era songs would have been cool. I'm thinking new backing tracks and new vocals.
"My Mary Anne" would be soooo cool as a BB track - picture Mike doing the opening bass vocals. Although Melinda doesn't like it when Brian sings about other girls nowadays (this peeves me a bit).
"You're Still A Mystery" obviously would have been a cool canidate - and also "It's Not Easy Being Me" could have worked in the context of the suite.
I don't know, these songs are so great that they would make the rest of the album...kinda suck.

Paul McCartney's Good Times Coming-Feel The Sun (Press To Play) - it's very catchy and so good, specially 2nd song! I thought I was alone! Such a great song, I actually think Paul were a little depressed when he wrote that song. To forget his problems he wrote this mantra,"Good times coming, laughing at the good times coming in". Thats how I Imagine it anyway.

It seems like Brian wrote The Private Life of Bill and Sue in 2009. This is a translation from a 2009 swedish interview:
Is it easier for you to write music today? - No, it's really not. I wrote the album That Lucky Old Sun, but nowadays it's a little harder for me.
Why? - I don't know... I'm not sure I can do it anymore.
Not sure you can? - Maybe if I really wanted. I have tried my best. By the way, I wrote a song last week called The Private Life of Bill and Sue. It goes like this: "The private life of Bill and Sue. It does not matter what They do." I havn't finished the lyrics yet, but the melody is done.
Brian Wilson begins to sing: - "The private life ..." I can't do it by heart, but I have it on tape.

Just out of curiousity, has Brian ever had live autotune on his voice before, and did anybody notice anything weird about Brian's leads from last night?
No, he hasn't used autotune live before based on everything I've seen/heard. And if he were to start, well, that would suck. Especially if it was obvious. Only TWGMTR sounded like Brian had some crazy live autotune on his voice. Listen to the ending of Heroes & Villains, "I'm fit with the stuff to ride in the rough". It sounds like some badly tracking vocoder jittering back & forth between two notes. Yeah, that was horrible.
