Thank you! I also like Can't Wait Too Long, but think it has more of a Wild Honey vibe.

I believe Can't Wait Too Long was last worked on during the lead-up to the 20/20 LP, so if it was going to be on an LP, it would be that one. :-)

@@NOWtheband I know. But I think it would fit on Wild Honey better musically. They had already started working on it at in 1967.

@@magictransistorradio4933 - True, soundwise it would fit better on Wild Honey 🙂

Maybe for the front cover

Yes and Mike Love should have been recognized as asshole of the year for that album. Oops I meant artist.

You have lost your mind

Lol

What’s wrong with you. I use my copy coaster

Actually, some of my very favorite songs are Friends, Meant for You, and Country Air. Perhaps one of my least favorite songs is TM (in the Friends album)

I like that you included Adult Child! I really like the songs that were from that project! Hopefully, there will be a 50th anniversary release in a few years!

Speaking of which, the next 50th sessions release will hopefully give us a 'complet' version of Adult/Child!

It was also done by the Ronettes, which is probably the version that inspired Brian.

@@magictransistorradio4933 I don’t think he was inspired by the Ronnettes version. I am a few years younger than Brian and I first heard the students version, and probably so did Brian and Mike. They were well versed in the old doo-wop songs which they eventually recorded like student demonstration time, come go with me etc. I’m so young is in that category.

@@dadaveda He probably knew both versions. But I do know Brian was obsessed with Phil Spector and the Ronettes. Not sure their version sounds like either one. Perhaps the vocals of the Students and the production style of the Ronnettes version.

I am not making any money on this. KZfaq will give me a strike or block the video if they see fit.

🤣

I am going back and reading these. I have no idea why I responded with a laugh! I completely agree with you that the Beach Boys, or any artist should have the freedom to do different kinds of music. I am one who actually enjoys the disco version of Here Comes the Night or being involved with rap, like Wipe Out with the Fat Boys, or Smart Girls by Brian. Just fun. Not meant to be taken too seriously. 85 is an album that also explores different styles of music they rarely did. New wave and 80s r&b. I would argue that Love You was a precursor to new wave. So, Male Ego could have been a new wave hit, in my opinion.

I think Heroes and Villains is solid. But I like Good Vibrations, Vegetables, Wind Chimes, Cabinessence and Surf's Up better. Of course if it was on any other album, would be 1 or 2.

​@@magictransistorradio4933 All incredible pieces, with their own incredible level of musical invention, its just to me nothing has consistently stayed so out there and experimental as HV. I get the inflluences for those other pieces, no matter how much of a stretch a lot were, but for Heroes & Villians it's truly just a song from another planet to me. I showed a stoned friend HV, and he actually got creeped out by the song it was that weird and different to him. At the same time, I understand why you place all of those so high, I would have to place Wind Chimes as my second favorite... those vocals in the choatic section, then followed by the simle piano groove is really moving. Either way I am so happy you placed SMiLE as number 1, and Holland and Surf's Up as high as you did, for me this more pyschdelic experimental music is where it is at. I love Pet Sounds, but SMiLE is several levels better to me.

@@graham2014 The recent 50 year anniversary box sets have been awesome! Blows me away how many great songs were left unreleased!

If you make a list, sure!

Just my opinion. Not the 4th best album, just my 4th favorite. 😁

@@magictransistorradio4933 that’s fine you probably have just overplayed it.

Party is a very 'meh' album. Calling it "Way better than any of the 80s albums" is like saying that canned spinach is way better than canned asparagus.😄
