100% agree that more promotion would be nice; the "McCartney Archive" model of pushing a song or two to YouTube (and as downloads for purchase) from the collection and maybe even a few tidbits *not* on the set as exclusive downloads on the official website would be cool.
Though, that brings up an interesting question in that the band doesn't really seem to have a full-active, BRI-toned official website. The "official" site at "thebeachboys.com" seems to be a promo fluff website that mixes press releases for Capitol product with random bits about Mike's touring band. Brian's tour dates aren't listed, and they should be right alongside Mike's. It's basically reads more like an official site for Mike's touring band along with some promo for Capitol product, and an occasional story about Brian. And of course, after all these years "beachboys.com" still leads to that fan website.
That all being said, this new set is streeting in 8 days, so we'll hear it all soon enough.
I do hope that *if* Capitol/UMe isn't putting even the minimal level of promotional push into this set, it might motivate BRI to start opening up their archives and releasing the stuff themselves online, and/or shopping the stuff to another label.

Was it an upload related to the record company or a leak?
Did anybody make a copy?

It was posted by the official Beach Boys YT channel. I suspect they accidentally posted it earlier than they wanted to. These kinds of early streaming releases are often tied to articles on the web “premiering” the songs. Maybe we’ll get it back soon. If not, it’s really not too long before we have everything on CD anyways.

The best recording of Aren't You Glad is the live version on the Beach Boys Live In London record, the song has so much more life on that recording than the studio version.

Wow.
They really just chucked away any chance of getting people aware and excited for this release, didn't they? Unless they decide to reupload at a later time before release (then why did they even upload it in the first place?), they will have continued their long streak of "blowing it".
The odd thing about this video's history is that it was put up on youtube around 1 a.m. EST a couple days ago as a public video, I found it in my subscription box and posted the link here soon after. When I went to listen to it again the next morning, it had turned unlisted so you needed a link to see it. Then before the day was done, it was gone permanently.
Who knows what kind of behind the scenes stuff went on here, because the powers that be squashed a nice little opportunity for themselves. Every single comment on youtube was positive, with many of them as glowing and joyous as they were here. It was so great to see some of the widespread excitement for this, I just hope it doesn't go away before June 30.

A bit of an overreaction, if you ask me. I'm sure it was posted accidentally. They likely published or listed it earlier than they had planned. I guarantee that video and others reappear in good time, likely on the promotional schedule they had previously planned.

Mike, Mike, Mike... why didn't/don't you sing more vocals like that? This was a really cool voice of Mike's that he almost never used again. You might hear a tiny bit of this type of phrasing on the bridge of Oh Darlin', but other than that, I can't recall another song in the ENTIRE catalog where he sounds like this.
Not whiny, not overly trying to sound young or cocky... just nice, simple, and sweet. A killer vocal.
I wonder if Brian coached Mike to sing like this as part of an overall plan to make all the band members sound drastically different (and less like what the public expected the BBs' voices to sound like) on this one particular record. After all, Carl sounds near unrecognizable (in a way unique to this album) IMO on some of his leads on the WH album.
It seems like this LP was a very deliberate attempt to sound NOT like "The Beach Boys", and I can't help but think that Mike succeeded with flying colors.
For the longest time, before I studied the credits and did online research on who sang what... I used to think the lead vocal on this song was Bruce.

I think his lead on 'Meant For You' is fairly remeniscent of this. In fact, I thought it was Brian singing that lead for a time.

I love Mike's lead on MFY, totally. But I think that's a very different sounding voice too. Different from his "usual" voice in a very different way than this song, IMO. I think it's a true bummer that Mike didn't sing more like AYG and MFY throughout the catalog, and instead kept on trying to mimic his 1963 voice for decades.

He had a great range that really worked with many styles. I think he has tried to vary his voice even up to recently (Pisces Brothers is a good example of this), but I think him being guided by nostalgia and less by a genuine artistic muse has kept that variation mostly tucked away.

All good points. Add Cool Head, Warm Heart to the list of solid vocals that show his non-nasal side.
But Aren't You Glad... this one's just particularly special.

Wow, this sounds great! Love how they kept it dry like the original. Can't wait to hear the whole album.
BTW - was the general consensus that it's Carl singing lead in the chorus?
Seems pretty clear now that it's Brian, just slowed down!

Is that confirmed? I always thought it was Carl until the brief falsetto bit made me wonder.
