Brian was trying something that didn't work, is all. Plus, you're hearing Mike's vocal in isolation, unprocessed: Brian's solo lead on "YSBIM" isn't pristine.
Also, does he sound like someone really pissed off with the lyrics ? Or pissed at all ?

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

Shelve waterboarding completely-they want answers from the guys at Gitmo?? Myke's unprocessed vocals for Caroline,No, Don't Talk or God Only Knows should get it done.

Has anyone transcribed all the talking in the backgrounds?
I try and try, but can't hear everything that's said, and it seems it would be cool to know what Brian was saying.

He's just playing the producer, telling Mike to do this, do that, try this...

Curious about this, has it been said/written that it was Mike that wanted the lyrics/name of the song changed? I honestly don't remember what the deal was. He sounds like he was having a regular ol time...

Allegedly, he wouldn't sing the "hang on to your ego" lyric and demanded it be changed.
Allegedly.

After that, I found this, an alternate "We're Together Again", well ,the track is alternate with the familiar vocal 'fan-dubbed' on. Can anyone shed any light on this backing track, sounds pretty good to me.

That "country" version of WTA is pretty good. All it lacked was a lead vocal.

Allegedly.
With some of those allegations coming from Mike Love himself.
From Mike's interview in Goldmine, Sept. 18, 1992...
That brings up the song "Hang On To Your Ego," which was going to be on Pet Sounds.
That used to be "Hang On To Your Ego" and then it became "I Know There's An Answer." I changed the lyrics because I thought it was too acid for me. That was those guys doing acid, Van Dyke Parks, and Brian and Tony Asher.

Nice. I could see that being the final product.

Yep. Mike sounds really good here. Very Wilson-y and Jardine-y in his way. Too bad he didn't sing like this on record more often.

At the beginning of the recording it sounds like Brian is pissed about something,but i'm pretty sure he's enthusiastically saying "We're fucken off"
It's also interesting, near the end of the recording when Mike has finished his part, Al comes to the microphone and pops down his "Milk crate"- he often used -to stand on, because he was to short to reach the mic.

Agreed - he could sing really well when he wanted to ("well" meaning like a singer who doesn't sound like their nose is being pinched). Not sure why he thought nasal was the way to go as opposed to this approach.

Unfortunately I've voluntarily deleted this and several other videos due to apparent copyright infringements, after warnings by Youtube & Brother records.
Sorry about that guys!!

That simply means you should transfer them to cds/dvds and sell them on ebay as "yugoslavian" or "east european". Nobody really knows what was legitimately released there.

It wasn't so much that he couldn't reach the mic, but they'd have a better blend if his voice were as level to the mic's capsule as the taller members of the band when they stood around it. You also don't really get to see how close or far away they were from the mic in most of the staged photos we've seen: They'd step back or move closer depending on the blend they wanted and balance themselves naturally.

Maybe the producer chose the approach.
