Another New Brian interview

[hypehat]

we really need to start putting these into some sort of rolling thread, people really wanna talk to him for some reason.

His assessment of the keys in songwriting is wonderful 

[buddhahat]

That is great - one of the funniest I've read for a long time.

Scott Bennett's comment is dead-on.

[Ron]

The absolute, absolute best part of the interview is the guy asked him two different times what color "a" is, and both times Brian said "Red".  LOL.  Oh my my my. 

[Cam Mott]

What an arrogant, self-centered prick! I wrote this and that was my idea and everybody's against me and everybody says I am the one who makes everybody happy and my music is the bomb and GV is TOO ARTY! Hello?

How dare he go on and on about himself and his accomplishments. Let's hate him.

[Chris Brown]

First I've heard of the Theremin on "Good Vibrations" being Carl's idea.

Do you have favorite songs of your own?

“God Only Knows” and “California Girls.” I like “Good Vibrations” but it’s too arty, it’s not rock and roll. It’s pop.



So Brian changed his mind then since his amphetamine days of TV interviews where he desperately says that Good Vibes IS A ROCK AND ROLL RECORD - IT IS!

Now what? It's not? Brian has lost his mind. He's talkative here about the music, keys, colors, etc though... seems strangely talkative here. What's he on? He mentions drugs and drug records quite enthusiastically. Hmm.

He's eating 

[Mr. Wilson]

Very good interview.!! Maybe people should talk to him about music more and leave the BS + down stuff alone.. Lots of musicians  talk about music in colors.. Never seen BW do it tho..I like that..Bw was very expressive in that interview..

Ohhhh, strawberries were in the bowl...

What a wonderful interview!  It makes me wonder if Brian has synesthesia...

Since when is Brian consistent?
As for being talkative, supposedly when he's comfortable he's the old 1960s talkative Brian. And he loves talking music. I love how he says A is intense and E is happy, and then we get: What color is A? Red. What color is E? Red.

Coming soon...the new Smile Twister Game!  Where each song represents a new colour!

Not necessarily Brian, but it certainly suggests that the interviewer might well have synesthesia. Brian could just be playing along.

[Ron]

They can clear that up for him down at the clinic.

Fun stuff!

LMFAO

FYI...the guy interviewing him was the same guy who interviewed him back in 1999....upon which Brian  basically admitted to not liking Imagination and that it wasn't his kind of music ("...well, vocally it is")

[puni puni]

gla to hear that i hope he thinks the oher albums beside smile arent his kind of music

Yeah that is interesting. If it is true, that's an angle to Brian's musicality which isn't touched on much.
