My nephew likes Bells of Christmas..

[Newguy562]

I played it a few times on X-mas eve around my family and they thought it sounded pretty silly/corny but he actually enjoyed it.
Should I keep an eye out for him? (He might be a little crazy ?) lol jk It just goes to show there's a beach boys song for everyone in your family whether you/they know it or not.

It always sounded to me like Al had a sore throat on this one...the kind where it hurts to talk, like strep throat.

Strep throat is the fucking worst :/ (Ouch!!) It sounds decent and is one of their better X-mas songs but it just caught me off guard that anybody else would like this song.

I like it a lot myself. Much better than the abysmal Belles Of Paris version.

[Zargo]

I like both versions. The France version benefits from Mike Love's more convincing vocals.

[Sheriff John Stone]

Love "Bells Of Christmas", the melody, arrangement, feel. I think Al's vocal is fine, but they could've used some "work" on Brian's high part, especially the a capella part at the end.

[Aegir]

who knows if the version we have is the intended final lead vocal? the song sounds unfinished, the mix is really weird.

[SMiLE Brian]

My dog like kokomo. Now that would make a great thread in the newguy tradition of inane threads.
