10. South American- from the Imagination CD. Jimmy Buffett co-wrote. Buffett deserves some credit for helping Brian's renaissance for giving him a three song slot at a few of his dates the summer Imagination came out.
9. Melt Away- BW88. One of my favorites. The version on IJWMFTT has a much warmer feel to it than the BW88 one.
8. Cry- Another one from Imagination. Simple but powerful lyrics.
7. Meet Me In My Dreams Tonight- BW88 Brian/Andy Paley/Andy Dean. Very car radio friendly song. My favorite on BW88.
6. Gettin' In Over My Head- Wilson/Paley song with a cool Righteous Brothers feel. I prefer the piano intro on the Wilson/Paley tapes but I like the version on GIOMH too.
5. City Blues- Perfect for Brian's post 1980 voice. Nice little rocking tune with Eric Clapton's guitar providing a good counterpoint.
4. This Song Wants to Sleep With You Tonight- Wilson/Paley. The music is exquisite. The lyrics evoke the perfect mood. I love this song. Very underrated in Brian's catalog.
3. It's Not Easy Being Me- Wilson/Paley- why hasn't this song hasn't been formally released. The best song of the Wilson/Paley collaboration.
2. Love and Mercy- Brian's anthem song. BW88. Simple lyrics, heartfelt message. The best version is on the Live at the Roxy CD.
1. The Spirit of Rock and Roll- Brian and Gary Usher. it's a crime this song has never been given a proper release. Another song just right for Brian's post 1980 voice.
