Listening to it for the second time. The first time brought me to tears of joy. No kidding. Loved it, this will most likely be a great album. So happy

I like the Beatles a bit more than the Boys of Beach, I think Brian's band is the tops---really amazing. And finally, I'm liberal. That's it.

Listened to it about 4 times already. I feel this is going to be one of the biggies on the album and possibly one that will reach high on the Adult Contemporary charts.

Permission to say, "told you so" ?
There's a Smile-like warmth about it, and damn isn't that a sweet vocal from Brian ?
Major props to all concerned.

Oh god that's awesome. This is one of the collaborations, isn't it?
His voice is possibly the best I've heard his 'old' voice. He hits HIGH NOTES!
I really can't wait for this now.

Correct - lyrics by Scott, I believe.

You reached into my heart And found the music of my soul The melodies unfold For you
I've never danced before Until you asked me Then magic lights lit up the floor
Gliding in a starlit/less sky Until we found the inner light Now we can duplicate the universe
The pain in painting The muse in music The like in I love you
When you connect the dots I see your picture coming through The story's always you
It's more than harmony When you sing with me It's an entire symphony
(Chorus)
Don't be afraid, love We can take it from The happy ending
The great in grateful The faith in faithful The like in I love you

"Because of the attitude of a few mental dinosaurs intent on exploiting our initial success, Brian's huge talent has never been fully appreciated in America and the potential of the group has been stifled.... If the Beatles had suffered this kind of misrepresentation, they would have never got past singing 'Please Please Me' and 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' and leaping around in Beatle suits." -Dennis Wilson, 1970

Interesting ... looks like one of the reasons the album was delayed from spring/early summer was that Disney hired a mixer from outside the BW circle. Scott B. had said Disney wanted to tweak some things.
I wonder if that means there's going to be an alternate (BW/Linett original) album mix leaking out at some point ...

Granted, one track isn't much to base any observation on... but it sounds like a BW production to me. I doubt much was tweaked. I'm sure will find out in the fullness of time.

The most amazing thing I can think of is that Brian co-wrote this song (finishing Gershwin's bits and structuring them), sang a real good lead vocal, produced the sessions...and he was 67. Who would've thought he still has it.

This is absolutely incredible. Brian just totally knocked it out of the park with this one. As has been said, it definitely has a "SMiLE" vibe to it; sort of sounds like the mature "Wonderful." His voice sounds about as smooth and as pretty as I've heard it in a long, long time.
Outstanding. A+.

Wow. Very impressive. The amazing thing about this and TLOS is my favorite thing about them both is Brian's lead vocals. Never thought I'd say THAT again.

I want to hear the Gershwin bits! It sure sounds like a Brian song, perhaps with a Gershwin fragment as the core melody line? But we won't know until we hear the Gershwin piece.
AGD -- I agree, it doesn't sound like it was messed with much. It sounds a bit like one of the Phil Ramone co-productions from the Target CD -- in other words, BW and BW band arrangements and vocals with a slightly more polished sound and vocal production. And there's nothing wrong with that for a project like this.
(I only bring it up because the page that plays the song makes a big deal about the mixer -- the "legendary" 15-Grammy winning Al Schmitt. Doesn't sound like something Brian's camp would come up with on their own.)

I love this. Scott's (presumably) lyrics aren't as sophisticated as Ira Gershwin's, but it's a different era. I love the arrangement.

I think the song is very good, but the lyrics are a little too schmaltz-packed for even for me. I would have liked Brian to handle those as well, as I think he is more than capable of writing effective, simple lyrics ("The Night Was So Young", "In the Back of My Mind", "Time to Get Alone") that are still substantial. But, whatever, this song still made me even more excited for the album!
