"That's Why God Made The Radio" Single!

[The Shift]

OK its the 18th but still no single 

Don't tell Phil… he'll put it down to an outbreak of bubonic plague…

[Runaways]

It's 4:40 am in california, nope, not todayb

[Mikie]

Hey, it's Wednesday.   Is the new single out yet??

I think I liked this thread better when it was all about cement shoes and people asking about other peoples' health.

Maybe it's time for another of your sonnets then.

Gladly. File this one under "diminishing returns..."

I put in a call to Capitol Records to axe them about the single.
The lady who answered wanted all kinds of personal
information from me, like my name and
which artist and single I was calling about.

I said, "that's personal information. Next,
you are going to ask how my health is,
and tell me how it would be a shame
if anything happened to my health."

The lady laughed at me, and said
"Let me transfer you to Scott."

"Scott as in Scotti Bros??"

There was no reply, as I
was on hold.
I was nervous, excited and
A little bit hungry - I had
Cracked the code of the
New Beach Boys single.
The Scotti Bros. are
Holding it hostage.

Scott answered.
I begged him
Not to hurt me
and told him to
Go after my
Loved ones
Instead.

He said "quit wasting my time,"
I said "that's verbal assault,"
And we parted ways.

So, my takeaway from that conversation is that the single is not going to come out
Until the Beach Boys pony up the necessary protection money.

[Runaways]

I wonder what the beach boys contract with capitol is right now

"When it's done" HAHA my favorite part!

[Heysaboda]

"AUSGEZEICHNET!"

[Heysaboda]

"Bugger me", aye, an English term, but used in the sense of "by crikey old chap" or "by jove" or "flippin' 'eck".

Here in the States we say "by cracky", a mild oath, often used to express surprise or approval.

Used mainly by people 75 years and older!

Jaco's mock-up was along the right lines then, eh?



Such powers of premonition!   

[Lowbacca]

Well, the vintage radio motif was to be expected.  But yeah, nice foresight.

Ahah came here to post this when i found the picture, but had to wait to get my account activated.

Looks like it's gonna be quite summer/surf-esque! hope it won't be too ridiculous and that they'll let Brian do some stuff, like Midnight's Another Day, would love that yeah.

Allegedly they are trying to emulate the Beach Boys formula circa '65, at least that's what the Boys hinted at in interviews. But certainly everybody involved will make sure it comes across as somewhat mature, not ridiculous. The whole reunion's been pretty tasteful so far.

Welcome to the board, anyhow!

[Ziggy Stardust]

One can only hope!

Thanks, yeah i'm pretty bad/shy when it comes to introduce myself.

only on a beach boys message board would there be a 24 page thread about a tune that no one has heard

WE RULE.

[Rob Dean]

Ah just like the vintage and rather desirable 'Roberts' Radio , is it a code that only Roberts or a derivative of that name i.e Rob / Bob etc will get the first chance to hear this damn song ? I hope

Nice. I didn't even see the Jan & Dean 'possibility' there. Good to know the young folk is keeping their spirit alive.
