It's probably the best Brian moment of the whole TLOS experience.  And Brian's not using a teleprompter (which is probably why he screws upo the lyrics to Calif Girls... only been singing 'em for 43 years now lad, he'll get it right someday soon!).

Greeeeat stuff! Pure magic.

See what I mean about how good Brian still is, rather, how great Brian still is, when he's relaxed?

This really makes me wish they would have included a complete cover of "That Lucky Old Sun" on the CD as a bonus track. The transition from the intro with the stacked vocals to the second up-tempo part of the song is just magical. It sounds as good as anything Brian did during SMiLE, if you ask me. It definitely kicks "Old Master Painter" in the butt, splattering his palette on the ground.

Very cool, nice to see Brian so relaxed and having fun.  I only wish it was longer than 3 minutes!

Brian is singing very well these days.

The song 'TLOS' is in a register that he sounds very comfortable in, and this performance, sitting in the back of a taxi, kicks the arse off his studio vocals on GIOMH.

No joke. He seems much more relaxed.

If he could do something like that on TV, being that relaxed, it'd rule .

This really is cool.   Besides Brian seeming so relaxed, I also enjoy watching his own band mates.  They act like we would.  There's a reverence there, that makes it all even cooler.  Does that make sense??

Yep, they look like they wish the cab ride would go on for a lot longer.

I think the band singing backing vocals on the first verse might've confused him.

I agree, it is. Wish they would put it out as a single just like that. Now why didn't Brian's manager come up with that idea? Smiley

Loved that video, reminded me a lot of the "Lost Hotel Tape".

I don't know...I actually found the clip disturbing.  Brian doesn't look relaxed at all...he just wants to get to the hotel.  My impression anyways...no offense given.
