You should hate the guy who wrote it. Some guy named Brian Wilson.

Obviously a big part of Smile was its use of humor. Its interesting that as the project turned 'dark' so did the humor. This is the most obvious example, but it runs through out Smiley Smile.

Thanks for posting a link to this... it has been years since I've heard it. Does anyone have any info as to when this was recorded? Was this part of the Hawaii concert re-creation sessions?

Yes it was, and it was just a joke.

Well I don't think Mike has ever specifically commented on it. I wonder if it was hard for him to do, or if he wanted to do it. But like everyone said, Brian wrote it.

"Mike Loves To Say Dada" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTFqiQa2Wrc'Ultimately the Beach boys meant so much to so many people because (edit) me'. More or less sums it up. 'Me'. 'When you've grounded yourself in yourself'. 'Me'. 'Me'. 'The Smile'. 'Me'.

I'll never buy into that. The humor is pure Mike Love, dripping with resentment. And I have to admit, it's too funny to be Brian's.

I just saw Myk Luhv being attacked for this in another thread in a post today. I think we should make a sticky entitled "Brian wrote the Mike Love H&V rant on Endless Bummer, okay."

If you hate him, then you better not go see the tour. You'll have a terrible time. Mike Love is up front all the time.

Oh, and one suggestion: with all the concert threads and info on the C50 coming all the time, perhaps it's not a good idea to start a thread to comment on topics that can be discussed elsewhere. There's like 98 "is Mike Love a villain?" threads, you can use one of those. Bottom line is that there's never been as many active threads as now and unnecesary new threads like this end up sending new topics to the second page of the board.

Mike and the "Beach Boys" entity have been faced with some pretty difficult and/or "interesting" situations over 5 decades. Decisions had to be made, choices selected etc. Not every one might have been the best choice or perfect or one that some fans agreed with - but who hasn't made a mistake? And, there's plenty of blame to be shared, it all doesn't resst with 1 guy. Bottomline, the "Beach Boys" have been around for 50 years in large part because its about the music (including the great harmonies) (thank you Brian!) but also to an extent because Mike Love kept the brand (and band) going as well as being a very good frotman.

The music track sounds great as did many others from those sessions. If Smiley Smile would've sounded like that, it might've been a better seller.

Where can you get the portion of the tape where Brian coaches Mike? Who here has actually heard it?
We've all heard about it, but few of us have actually heard it. WE WANT PROOF!
