"One For the Boys" gets my vote.  Are you folks serious with all these votes for "Meet Me in My Dreams Tonight"?  Hate it?  You hate Brian Wilson songs?

As heads up to those who mav not have seen:

Mike Love's survivor album is currently in limbo. There is a 4-way tie that needs to be broken before that thread can move on.

If you haven't voted there yet, do it now!

I'd love to play along but I really don't want to have to listen to that album.  Grin

"Little Children" is my least favorite on the album.  It's definitely pure Brian and it's fun but a little too silly and repetitive that it pales in comparison to the rest.

Little Children

Is it just me is more than a hint of "Mountain of Love" in the chorus? (Or do they both rip off the same, earlier, public domain song?)

More than a hint indeed -- it is the chorus to "Mountain of Love." Just with different lyrics (and in one case -- "It used to be" -- the same lyrics).

Always surprised no one sued over that.

Quote
Brian Wilson is the eponymous debut solo album by Brian Wilson released in July 1988 on Sire Records. Working with an array of collaborators including his therapist Eugene Landy, Wilson accordingly themed the album around love and spirituality exemplified by its lead single "Love and Mercy". Although the album's sessions were contentious, where some participants demanded a progressive artistic statement versus conventional pop songs, nearly a quarter of the LP is devoted to "Rio Grande", a piece which was intended to rekindle Wilson's experimental drive from the mid 1960s and early 1970s.
It was voted one of the best albums of 1988 by NME, and as part of its acclaim, garnered the nickname "Pet Sounds '88" among some critics.Brian Wilson has since been reissued on several different formats with bonus tracks, and cited by some as a standout in Wilson's solo oeuvre.

The album is on Spotify!

All the Little Children can just martch strait down to the loser box! (11)

Vote for your LEAST FAVORITE TRACK!!!

Tally on August 26th

Love and Mercy
Melt Away
Baby Let Your Hair Grow Long

Rio Grande

Round#1 - Night Time August 20
Round#2 - Walkin' the Line August 22
Round#3 - Little Children August 24

Far earlier than I had anticipated... this round just got hard for me...

Meet Me In My Dreams Tonight, I suppose has got to go.

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

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

Again, One for the Boys.

Losing Little Children is a crime against all that is good and Wilsonian.
