Terribly boring & annoying. Carl didn't really add anything to save it, he sings too low anyway. 1.

Even though there's a section where they're off-key, it's still a 5 because I've always loved this song.

4.
When it came out I didn’t care for it. Remember thinking, “why do it again” after all the great non beach songs they’d put out the last several years.
Didn’t notice the intro back then, probably because of the little transistor radio I was using.
Finally hearing it was a plus.
I like it more now although it’s not among my all-time favorites. There’s too many better songs they’ve done.

Great song, if only for the weird snare sound at the beginning. And the echo on Mike's voice in the line after the solo. And the solo.

Five.

Do It Again

5 all the way! Strong vocals, catchy as heck, and I love those distorted drums. Love it in the studio, and love it live in concert. One of my favorites of their standard hits. It's a pefect song.

Oh god. The greatest version of "ICHM" by far. Carl's wail in the first verse is to die for. But the whole song is top-notch. Five.

Today's song is Bluebirds over the Mountain.

I know many have an aversion to Ed C's screaming guitar but I think it makes a wonderful foil to a song otherwise pretty well devoid of dynamics.

The clattering "alternate" take is even better to these ears (read: wonderfully over-the-top) but the album version still gets a five from me.

Five from me. I love the energy in it, and of course that awesome hard rockin' guitar playing from Ed Carter. I don't like the split version from 1983's rarities album as much as the 20/20 version due to that loud tick-tock-tick-tock sound which kinda bugs me. The 1968 single version is perfect. Totally rocks!

Wise people gave "Bluebirds" 2 1's. Smiley Add the other "1" to the boredom kingdom. Ta. Smiley

Dennis' dull Friends tracks, then BWM - big step in quality. 4.

Never really a favourite of mine, it seems to fit well enough in the potpourri that is 20/20. A four on this occasion.

I might be in the minority with my opinion....but this song gets a big 5 from me. Hardest rockin' song they ever did, with an X-rated fade-out. Full balls to the walls rock & roll, and I love that kind of sh!t. I for one am glad the Beach Boys have at least one song like this in their catalog.

Absolutely! I've always been impressed by Mike's vocal. It's not easy to pull off a vocal like that. It's kinda their 'Helter Skelter' (but even more uncharacteristic).
