Dennis singing Bruce Johnston's part at the end of "God Only Knows" from the 1972 Carnegie show.

Hell yes at this.

Backing up the Stevie love as well. Such a neat, in the pocket song. I suppose it's somewhat hedonistic origins effectively vetoed it for inclusion in BB's 85.... Crazy bastards.

The "doo-do doo-do doo-do-do fly away" tag at the end of "At My Window." Always ass-kicking and freakin' amazing! It's also somewhat ironic to me that the song that tends to get some of the least overall respect on Sunflower (okay...maybe "Tears" has that honor, too) *might* have the album's greatest single moment.

And at that moment...all is well in the universe.

I don't think I'd be wrong in saying that "Don't Worry Baby" off The Beach Boys in Concert is the greatest live performance of any song ever performed. Every solitary second of that recording is kicking my ass right now.

Aw yeah. One of the few albums I don't own so I find myself listening to it on YouTube pretty frequently.

'Don't Worry Baby' from Concert is a fantastic recording...not my favorite live song by them, but it certainly is beautiful.

Live at Knebworth 1980 is my favorite live album by them - there is so much energy in that recording. I need to get the DVD of that soon.

My reply;  parts of that 93 box set  live tour are the best BB moments for me these days.  Not all of it but there are some very special parts.......
The owners of this material need to package and release it.      Call it the anniversary box tapes.....no need to say WHICH anniv!

I actually went to the trouble of downloading all the YouTube videos and converting them to MP3 just so I wouldn't have to go on YouTube to listen to them.

And the funny part of this all is: this song was released on the "Today!" album.  Smiley

If you like this song by the way, I recommend you to get this album. The whole b-side only contains great ballads (except for the last track which is an interview). I'm pretty certain, you'll love them all. O, and not to forget two Dennis Wilson leadvocals (Do You Wanna Dance? and In The Back Of My Mind).

I never knew Denny was the lead singer of Do you wanna dance until I came here in 2009. I seen the video on youtube. Sounds real good. I have a cd with that song.

If you haven't heard it yet, listen to 'She Knows Me Too Well' (also from Today!). It's my second favourite song on that album (first being 'In The Back Of My Mind').

"Are You Real?" (from POB Legacy). The entire song but especially the frantic coda. Why doesn't anybody ever mention this song??? Hell, the whole 2 cd set kicks my ass anytime I bust it out...

Ive always hated that line in particular, though overall I like the lyrics of that song. Oh, sh*t, I'm being a party pooper, aren't I?

Great song regardless.

Care to tell us what you hate about it? I like that line. It evokes feelings of how great it must be to be on top of the world in good times, but how tough it must be to bear all the responsibility when things go bad.

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.

Good question.
I don't know. I know it doesn't work for me. Oddly, I think it's one of the stand-out lines of that song, meaning, when I think of that song, I find myself singing that particular line, for some reason it really sticks in my head, so in that sense it's successful.--I guess the 'weight turns the smile to a frown' part seems strained to me, and the line in general evokes a rather comical image in my head, which is inappropriate for the song. So perhaps it's my own brain reacting with the line that bothers me.

overall, I think Reilly's an underrated lyricist, albeit with a few tendencies I find grating(too many past participles, maybe). I regret that he didn't write further with the group as I think he would have developed into something even better.

The harpsichord right before Brian sings each 'I guess I just wasn't made for these times' in IJWMFTT.

The entire Surfer Girl album - Brian's falsetto in 'Surfer's Rule' is incredible....what a kick-ass song!
