From the Ken Bruce show - extra Brian overdubs, more instruments, Mike Bridge and more!

EDIT: I ripped it and put it on YouTube for easy listening

One problem - more autotune...

Hmm. Well....it cool.

Autotuned out the wazoo, but I'll get over it. I still think Brian sounds rough on his verse. Was it rerecorded? It kinda sounds like it. The changed lyrics to Al's parts sound weird to me, but it's also because I've lived with the album version for a while, so I'll probably get used to it. Overall, I'm happy to get anything new out of The Beach Boys in 2012, so even if it's a tweaked version of an already released song, I'm ok with that.

Actually it's the correct link - it's Ken Bruce, not Jeremy Vine you want folks.

Many thanks Mr Moustachioto!

The autotune is clearly used for effect like on many modern records. There's a lot of echo added to it and especially the delay on Al's vocals sounds weired. To tell you the truth there's so much echo that it is kinda disturbing. The rest is cool (was it slowed down? The intro sounds like that to me) but it's hard to liste to it. Take that down a bit especially off Al's vocal and it's nice. At this point though I'd go with the album version. And I'd like a little more bass.
The organ is cool

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I think it is a nice improvement on the album version.  It has a "live" feel and I like the changes with the possible exception of the Mike bridge.  I didn't love the Jeff bridge, but wonder how it might have sounded if Bruce had sung the "Jeff bridge" on this version.  Then, it would have clearly featured the 4 primary vocalists.

All in all more single-worthy than the album version. I don't like the lyrics changes though, the bridge featuring Mike pretty much blows (that would have been a nice spot for Bruce), and the backing track now sounds even more 'un-organic' (or is it just my ears?).

Ah, doesn't matter anyway... this one will peter out much like the 1st single, thanks to impressive Capitol promotion.  Undecided I tell you, nobody I know (who isn't a BBs fan) even knew they had a 1st single release in 2012 to begin with. It's a shame..

I don't know about you but that delay on Al's voice hurts my ears. There are other parts that sound like they could use a re-mastering but maybe the radio station only got an early version to promote

Blatant enough to clearly not be there to hide anything imo

This likely went through the same people who were running the show and thought this was acceptable for weeks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZrIyFaPRTE

 Huh
Mike's bridge is poor (he's way too far back in the mix)... Jeff's was better

question is, is he too far back in the mix or is his voice so weak in that range that he can't be heard??

If his voice was that weak (which I doubt) they could easily mix it loud enough so that it can be heard.

Oh boy!   Embarrassed

Oh boy!    Cry


Sorry but this sounds awful.  They changed a fresh upbeat cute song into a wanna-be modern mess.

It's like the engineer wanted to try all the effects he had available..    
Yeah look at this autotune, cool ah?  And listen to this big ass delay!  Let's put more reverb!  
And more percussions! I want 50 thousand percussions!

And yes the bridge is even worse..  no punch at all.


Not impressed.  Will still buy it.

Yerp - the former description is perfect for the song on the album, and the new version indeed strips it of all or much of those things. Thank goodness we have the original.

Not too bad but I really hope that this is an early version and that the actual released single will be much better.
