Does anyone have a video of Mike Love's daughter singing Sail On Sailor? Would like to see that. How did she do, for anyone who was at the show?
I've seen her do that live, she sang it in Sweden two years ago if I remember things correctly. Why not let her sing Rollin' Up to Heaven live?

Some critics dismissed "The Private Life..." as a tropical throwaway, missing the point entirely. The instrumentation used on that track is perfect for the composition. It is not shoehorned in there arbitrarily, swamped with small lizards and tiny umbrellas, like "Island Fever." It fits the song perfectly.
I like tPLoBaS.

It became clear to me tonight. After a bottle of wine. And after listeing to Shelter. It dawned on me. I feel one thing when listening to the new album in all its imperfection - pure love. I've never loved The Beach Boys this much, it feels they are doing is this album for us, not for themselves. They wanted us to have one last gift, one final lingering memory of things that were. After aeons of hardships they got together and put their differences aside to give us something to make us happier than we were before.
It is not a perfect album, but then again we are not perfect. No-one is perfect. Life is not perfect. This album evokes thoughts of things that could have been, but never came to pass.
I will be forever thankful for that.

Who gives a flying oatmeal f*ck if someone disagrees with someone? We're Beach Boys fans...disagreeing is what we do! All I'm asking is that people RESPECT EACH OTHERS OPINIONS . Is that too much to ask?!
I can not be a part of a forum where there is a lack of respect. And I don't respect you other guys.

I know you have all been waiting. Here is my verdict:
1. Think About The Days - 9/10 (could have been written by Benny Andersson) 2. That's Why God Made The Radio - 5/10 (too pedestrian) 3. Isn't It Time - 4/10 (bland) 4. Spring Vacation - 6/10 (great verses, lousy chorus) 5. The Private Life Of Bill And Sue - 8/10 (I am a sucker for this song) 6. Shelter - 7/10 (shows some promise, the chorus is similar to Darlin') 7. Daybreak Over The Ocean - 8/10 (I liked this one on the Mike Love, Not War album) 8. Beaches In Mind - 3/10 (I've got 3/10 in mind) 9. Strange World - 3/10 (Not my cup of milk) 10. From There To Back Again - 6/10 (introspective looking back type of lyrics) 11. Pacific Coast Highway - 7/10 (introspective looking back type of lyrics again) 12. Summer's Gone - 8/10 (introspective looking back type of lyrics again again)
What do you know that the rest of us don't? Are you rating based on the clips at Amazon? Yes. Plus I've heard the full version of Think About the Days God Made Spring Vacation. Oh. Thought you'd heard the whole thing, seems a little strange to give ratings to songs you haven't properly heard yet. You can rate what you've heard.
