The Brianista Prayer

Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat

Island Girl. I'm in disbelief that In My Car went before Island Girl and Still Cruisin' Sad

Current lack of votes is possibly less about Ko-Mo being popular and more about how dire the other tracks are.

I think the reason why many Beach Boys fans dislike 'Kokomo' is because it sounds too "plastic" and too, well, 80s. But the same thing goes for every other song on this album. And composition-wise, 'Kokomo' certainly isn't one of the weaker songs on 'Still Cruisin''.

Farewell Island Girl.

Mike's not a Hawthorne boy. The Hawthorne guys stuck together. The Wilsons and I always had a special bond. We felt like we were a team.

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

"New rule: Having anything to do with the creation of a punk rawk version of "All You Need Is Love" (never with the horn part because lol hornz are silly and dumb) gets you the death penalty. No questions, no trial, it's your fault, pick out your coffin." - runnersdialzero

  Island Girl   This song suffers in part because it has the same title as a classic Elton John hit!

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  :D ).... and without further ado...

We won't be including the previously released track on side two.

Quote
Still Cruisin' is the twenty-sixth studio album by The Beach Boys, their thirty-fifth official album (counting compilations and live packages), and their last release of the 1980s. It is also the last album of new material released during a brief return to Capitol Records.
Still Cruisin' was left out of Capitol's Beach Boys re-issue campaign in 2000 and 2001, and is currently out of print.

Island Girl =  Not classy enough for 19 smilers.

FINAL THREE. VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE!!!!!

Tally on April 27th

Still Cruisin'
Somewhere Near Japan
Kokomo

Round#1 - Wipe Out April 19
Round#2 - Make It Big April 21
Round#3 - In My Car April 23
Round#4 - Island Girl

My vote for Survivor has to go towards.... Kokomo. Love it or hate it. It's the perfect party song.... if you are around a bunch of Filipinos.
