The Beach Boys - Here Comes the Night

[gemear2]

I love WILD HONEY... I love Brian's detuned piano combined with Carl's 12 string.... in this song it combines so well!

[memejawd]

the disco version is more polished vocally

[MrYuriFerro]

Here comes the su... night!

[plxton]

i prefer pink floyd 

[clw4200]

Ever hear the disco version?

[Animainiac85]

Sounds like Brian to me...pretty clearly.

Then again, I thought Brian sang the SMiLE version of Wind Chimes but that's Carl.

[onlinemonikers]

Come on, people--lead vocal: Brian

[jwild611]

@onlinemonikers Thank you

[dumbangel75]

The Beach Boys go Motown, love that boogie woogie piano.

[gto66solstice08]

Bought this album not knowing what to expect in 1967......I'm still undecided as I pass my 6th decade..

[uncccut23]

Miraculous melody in the verse

[kevyrob13]

What a great melody!. Great album too. My fav!

[Quizcoot]

Wonderful! Gee whiz, it's been a long time since I heard this song!

Now I remember what happened to my original Wild Honey LP. I wore it out playing it!

The sound of the LP could do some digital touching up. It sounds pretty murky, but that's pretty well what it sounded like originally.

[serenagel]

knocks the socks off the LA disco version.

[rainriders]

Brian takes the lead vocal. 

[silat13]

@rainriders I think it is Carl.

[rainriders]

@silat13 I think so too. Brian took the lead vocal away from Dennis and gave it to Carl.

[GeminiOsirisDream]

The Beach Boys made fools of themselves when  they did a disco remix of this song 12 years later.

[jwild611]

This is Brian singing no doubt.

[silat13]

@jwild611 I think it is Carl.

[jwild611]

@silat13 nope. It's obviously Brian

[dumbangel75]

@jwild611 You are correct, it's in fact Brian.

[spurtfather]

ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo

[bevanne12]

is this in mono? isn't there a remastered edition?

[shanehenning26]

happy birthday brian wilson

[RowBadMovies]

I remember learning the bass part for this song - simple, but I was so new to it back then.

[BucketFurter]

You hear that angry-sounding (intentional) electric-organ bass here, which would fully blossom in the Love You album...

[sallyragdoll13]

I love the violent-ish feel that Brian Wilson has when he sings! It makes it seem more classic, yet people can relate to these songs these days.

[Karateworm]

@sallyragdoll13 I think it's actually Carl, although I'm not sure.

[SmileySmileAM]

I love the bass.

[sallyragdoll13]

I love this song! It's somewhat hard to sing along with lol! I love singing it! :D

[robotwookie]

Sorry y'all. This was the perfect example of Beach Boys weakness. Many songs they just made sound. Essentially just went through the motions. That or the creativity ran dry a bit to fast. They have these on every album. and for the record, I adore the Boys. I know, begin the vote down. Feel free.....

[mahkindofmusic]

Love this song so much ! Wild honey is one of my favorite albums !

[runemartinguldberg]

After he got to knew manson and the girls the first he did was to pay for a huge medical bill. All the girls was full of VD.

[Huddiethegreat]

Dennis

[33luna]

This song is INCREDIBLY GOOD

[789pequignot]

happy birthday dennis wilson

[Slopies]

No no.

This album as been released in 1967. Abbey Road in 1969 :)

Hey. This album's name is Wild Honey. Remember you something else? :P

[ChristForte]

I know. Honey Pie and Wild Honey pie.

[runnersdialzero33]

ORLY? So you're saying Brian somehow stole a track that he'd never heard and that had never been released, reversed it and came up with this? Makes sense.

[runnersdialzero33]

Lawl, except this sounds absolutely nothing like "Here Comes the Sun".

Also, the Beach Boys >>>> the Beatles, although the latter are certainly good, too.

[ChristForte]

Alright then I made that comment 8 months ago and I didn't know. And you are open to the possibillity that Here Comes the Sun could've been written before Abbey Roads production correct? And also that The Beatles and Beach Boys were friends and therefore can share ideas with one another. So do what I didn't do 8 and 6 months ago and examine what you say before you say it.

[himself801]

I don't hear it.

Anyway, Paul and Brian were/are friendly, but "Here Comes The Sun" is a Harrison and Paul isn't likely to be showing off John's or George's songs when he was writing so many songs of his own.

The song is usually quoted as Harrison having written it in 1969 in Eric Clapton's garden.

[skane01]

great track even if one of the licks sound like the Sesame Street intro

[anchoragemark]

If there's any similarity, then it would be Sesame Street that borrowed the lick. :P

[newowned]

@skane01 If you want a Beach Boy's song that sounds like the Sesame Street intro, listen to 'Carl's Big Chance'
