HIs voice was already shot at 34. Pretty sad.

Brian on why he loves God Only Knows: "Because Paul McCartney said it was his favourite song"

you're right. that last "together you and I" is classic Brian.
his voice wasn't shot, for the most part he chose to sing that way. he sounds clear as a bell on Matchpoint recorded a year later.

I've always been blown away by how he hits that final "I" that finishes the song. He sings just it perfectly.

I've been listening to that final line, "together you and I", for 37 years now. And every time I hear it, I still wish/expect someone (whoever?) to come in on the "talkback" saying, "Great ending, Brian, let's try another one from the top..."
Always thought Marilyn was an underrated singer. I really like her voice. I think I like every lead vocal she ever did. Can't really think of a clunker...

I do really like LPOHT, but the reason I decided to vote for it so early is because of Marilyn's half-assed vocals. I feel the same way towards It's Over Now.
When I want to listen to LPOHT, I almost always end up listening to the fantastic piano demo that appears on the Brian Loves You bootleg.

No, it doesn't. Listen closely and it sounds like late 70s Brian trying to sound smooth. His voice had changed.

No, it doesn't. Listen closely and it sounds like late 70s Brian trying to sound smooth. His voice had changed.
It wasn't perfect, but it could have been a good starting point for vocal rehabilitation. With proper diet, continued vocal training and controlled drug use, I believe he'd have probably been able to sound close to how he did on the 1974 California Feeling demo.

Welcome back to a new round of BEACH BOYS SURVIVOR. Remember to be respectful of others opinions. Please don't spam the thread with too much opinionating (a little is ok
).... and without further ado...
Quote
Love You (also known as The Beach Boys Love You) is the twenty-first studio album by American rock band the Beach Boys, released on April 11, 1977. Originally conceived as a Brian Wilson solo album entitled Brian Loves You, the album is almost entirely written and performed by Wilson, with the other band members mainly serving as additional lead vocalists.
Penned during a process of mental and drug rehabilitation for Wilson, Love You has been praised by critics for the album's honest, unpretentious lyrics, and has been described as a portrait into Brian Wilson's sense of self in 1977. Heavily reliant on 1970s analog synthesizers, the album has been recognised as an idiosyncratic and creative oddity in the Beach Boys' canon.
Ding Dang Dog Gone it!!!!
As usual vote for your least favorite track. The track with the most votes gets voted off.
Tally on March 13th
Let Us Go on This Way
Roller Skating Child
Mona
Johnny Carson
Good Time
Honkin' Down the Highway
Solar System
The Night Was So Young
I'll Bet He's Nice
I Wanna Pick You Up
Airplane
Round#1 -
Love is a Woman
March 7
Round#2 -
Let's Put Our Hearts Together
March 9
Round#3 -
Ding Dang
March 11
This is probably the toughest album for me to vote things off. There are little things that make me love every since track.
That being said my vote for least favorite goes to Roller Skating Child. It feels the most thrown together of all the songs.

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

Mona. It's the most insubstantial of the songs left.
And since the conversation has continued to discuss Let's Put Our Hearts Together, I think the part that really sells me on it is the wordless backing vocal by what sounds like Mike. Add an old-school Brian voice to the song and it's pure bliss.
