Yes, I would rather you dug up Carl and had him just lie there then here this horrible vocal. The worst performer in the Beach Boys was always Mike Love too.
John does a very good job singing this but I must admit the band's performance is lacking...compare this to Darian Sahanaja singing it (also on youtube) with BW's band and you'll see what I mean.
Hey! We ALL love Carl. But what do ya wanna do? Dig him up and try to get him to sing?! John Cowsill's vocal on this tune is f**kin great, so don't tell ME it sucks! Carl could not make it to this gig. OK? Be glad that Mike and the guys are keeping the music alive. Ya wanna hear Carl, play the f**kin records. Don't search for video's of today's Beach Boys just to come out and diss cool people who love Carl as much as YOU do!
@DeconPossessed Gotta agree with you. Peoples' love for Carl, Dennis or anyone else should not come in the form of attacking these guys. No one is trying to replace anyone, I am sure and the Beach Boys noble fight must go on. People die and it really sucks but what else is new. Great comment man.
@deweypug Well, John Cowsill can never be another Carl Wilson and he's not trying to be. He has the range for the song, that's all. God Bless Brian, but you know some of his current covers can't compare with the group's former glory either.
I totally agree all this bashing of the current line up I see now a days is not going to do any good. It's not going to bring Carl and Dennis back to life. What were Mike and Bruce supposed to do stop doing the job they love and giving this great music to the fans? No! I am darn glad their still out there keeping the music alive. As Dennis said "the Beach Boys created the first big wave surfs up and were around"! This line up deserves the Beach Boy name for sure!
I`m sorry but this rendition SUCKS! This song should be retired as NOBODY can sing it like Carl Wilson. OMG that S U C K E D!!!! Listen to Carl singing it and then try to listen to that again...OMG
sad. Before the name and legend was driven into the ground by the profit motive. The original, with at least Carl and Al, was a great artistic effort. Time marches ona dn now we are stuck freakin' Lady GagMe With A Spoon " lol

Dreadful version. Mike Love should quit and stop touring with these imposters, all they are doing is ruining the memory of Brian's work...

@DeconPossessed Mike Love is not keeping Brian's music alive, he is slowly killing it. As an example, this torturous version.

that's because it's John Cowsill.If they did have a full fledged reunion,he would fit into
Carl AND Dennis' slot quite nicely!
