My question is what happens if Surfs' Up or Good Vibrations win twice.

The more unfinished tracks have an unfair disadvantage to me (I'm not much a one for listening to backing tracks, I do love to have a lead vocal), so i'm abstaining from this round. I'd vote if it were the Brian Wilson Presents... version.

Yep, me too I've decided. There's just too many extra issues involved outside of the songs here... I mean, I love Cabin Essence but I hate the production on the Smile Sessions version etc.

Dahhhhhhhhhhh this is too hard. I think I'll go with Look, especially if we're talking about the Smile Sessions version (those "child" fly-ins are horrid)

"Gee", I guess...not a lot there compared to some other tracks.  I expect the shortest and the most unfinished bits will be the casualties in the early rounds.

Edit:  changed my mind.  "I Wanna Be Around/Workshop."  I appreciate the audacity and humor of using power tools, but as is, it is to me the most extraneous and least well integrated piece of BWPS and the 2011 BB version.

WOAH! what's with all the dislike for Fire/Mrs. O'leary's Cow? It's the most legendary tune from Smile. It's also one of the most bizarre tune for the Beach Boys' catalog. It's also one of the only tunes I can play when I'm angry and feel the anger with the song. There's so much more that can be said. I just can't believe it. I figured Look or Friday Night or Holidays would be high on the list, I can understand Gee.

This is a hard one for me to pick- I Wanna Be Around or Gee

Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.

I like this round cos by the end of it we're going know which tracks were meant to be links between other tracks and which tracks shouldn't have been on the album in the first place.  I'm gonna abstain again and just sit back and learn, if that's okay… It's like having Brian in the room!  :D
