Marilyn McCoo Carl Wilson God Only Knows SOLID GOLD

[abata15]

Beautiful

[aimeemannfan2010]

Such class and elegance. Wonderful duet!

[Wolfsky9]

Total-Class--ladies & Gents, we'll not see or hear the likes of this--ever again. Wolfsky9 

[Wolfsky9]

Watching this brings me to tears--the finest duet ever.  Wolfsky9

[larrystarstruck]

Carl had said that he thought at was one of the most beautiful songs he had ever heard and was glad that he got to sing it.

Paul McCartney has said the same on this song's beauty.

[lockwpa]

I saw Carl at a "Solid Gold" taping in 1985...he sang "Hold Me" with a new band. I was the biggest fan in the audience, and he acknowledged my cheers at the end! Love the real Beach Boys.....

[jjs499]

Brian was Trying to outdo his own Pet Sounds and mabey Sargent Pepper... Thats a lot of pressure..... but it all ended well, he did "THe Smile Concert in England, and recieved his accolades... Just My Opinion... But On Some of his music, Its almost like listening to something Miraculous....And there is a lot of Hate for Mike Love, but Mike was perfect for the beach boys, not a sensitive bone in his Body, Perfect Front man for the Group....Id love to see all of them together again..Just Once...

[MoogerTuber]

@jjs499 Zoltar says: Your Wish Is Granted.

[jjs499]

Yes, Carl sang it On the 45, Obvoiusly Brain Wrote it. My opinion { I love the beatles] But Brian Wilson was Just as good if not better. Really all the beatles could write and did write Not Just John And Paul, But Brian was almost, All By Himself.. Mike Love chipped in here and there, and Of course Van Dyke Parks came in 67 and helped with the Lyrics, But Brian was almost peerless, as far as singer, songwriter, Producer, Also, I think smile was to complex... and rejected by the B Boys

[jjs499]

Wow Two great voices, wow what a beautiful moment....

[Sheepbone]

Carl is amazing

[CeeRoyJenkins]

Carl's voice is smooth as butter

[aimeemannfan2010]

Incredible!

[Nobama0000]

Marilyn's voice is incredible!

[Wolfsky9]

Simply stated, THE finest duet, ever. EVER. Wolfsky9 

[Wolfsky9]

This still brings tears to my eyes, RIP Carl.  The Best duet ever. EVER. Wolfsky9.

[BeachBoysJanDean1]

This video proves once again just how underrated Carl Wilson is in the music world!

[Verniegirl9]

Happy Birthday, Carl... R.I.P.

[snoops71]

Their voices sound beautifully together :)

[coolsweetgroovy]

Anyone here think Marilyn McCoo lookslike another famous Marilyn the still fabulous Marilyn wilson? both are still awesome

[3dogdog]

God bless Carl..The "gentleman" Beach Boy. From The Beach Toys we love you all Wilsons !

[kevlength]

What a great version! Memories of a fabulous time in my teens.....

[Helen25243]

Anyone else think Marilyn looks a lot like Marie Osmond?. No offence intended!!

[coolsweetgroovy]

@Helen25243 she does

[Helen25243]

Carl Wilson was MUCH more handsome than many of today's stars, from film and music, and he was such a gentle soul, never a tantrum when things didn't go his way, unlike some could mention!!God rest your soul, beautiful man.

[74LesPaul]

He played with the group sitting on a stool when he was too tired to stand up. . kept it going to the end. Such an amazing voice. .

[BeachBoysGuy1]

GOD ONLY KNOWS why Carl had to pass away so early

[supergolfdude]

I met Carl working out at Bally's in Akron in the late 1980's. He couldn't have been nicer.

[TheWhofan62]

Carl Wilson was always my fave beach boy lead. I thought his voice much better than Love's

[pilesovinyl]

WOW, two of my all time favorites singing one of the most beautiful Beach Boys songs ever. I miss Carl and his tender vocal style. Marilyn can sing anything......

[oldbag699]

a classy woman a great song and what more can u ask for ty mccoofan

[4902STEVEN]

Yah, of all of them, he had the voice that could melt......

[Wolfsky9]

Carl, we miss you more as the years go on & on.  all-time class & classic, duet. Wolfsky9

[coolsweetgroovy]

Should not beconfused with Marilyn Wilson although they do look alike. Carl and Ms. McCoo make a nice pair

[HaliB75]

Who the hell is Marylin Wilson??? I know a Mary Wislon from the Supremes and Mary and Marylin look NOTHING alike. Please tell me who Marilyn Wilson is.

[coolsweetgroovy]

@HaliB75 Marilyn Wilson was Brian's Wife i'll send you a recent video of her

[tiger7128816]

wow.... amazing... I'm speechless, didn't think it was gonna be that good but... wow!

[dandeexxxx]

could you imagine an album by these two? god bless you carl

[dimebars]

Carl , wonderful Carl.....he was an amazing singer

[pilesovinyl]

I miss Carl. He was the sweet vocal of the Beach Boys. If you get a chance to see the Beach Boys now, skip it. To parade around the survivors without Carl and Dennis, will its not the same band is it? Lovely Marilyn can sing anything with anybody, nice clip.

[cheesemoth]

Carl really awesome voice live or on record. Just great x

[laflex]

Marilyn adds a truly beautiful counterpoint in the ending. Bravo!

[Wolfsky9]

It just makes me cry to hear and to see this. That ending is just timeless.  Wolfsky9

[Wolfsky9]

The most perfect duet ever done on " Solid Gold"; Carl as always, had such total class, and that voice--no one else ever did this like he did. Wolfsky9

[BB45s]

Brian's song and Carl's voice will be listened to 50 years from ow - Timeless beautiful music!

{Click BB45s for rare Beach Boys video archive playlist}

[TheRippper]

I love the Beach Boys but Damn she's HOT. I'd like to pound that ass 30 years ago!!

[coolsweetgroovy]

@TheRippper Hey cool it kids are on youtube you know that?

[coolsweetgroovy]

I love this too. Plus I love The 5th Dimension.

[jurneynut]

WoW!Solid Gold!I thought this was Great!Miss McCoo didn't diva this or other duets with other singers.Simple IS better.I really miss those days when people respected each others art.Now its about showboating with the absence of talent.

[Wolfsky9]

I started singing along, and then the tears came. What a beautiful, beautiful, duet. Carl, Marilyn, you two were magic together, God Bless you forever. We miss you Carl, more and more as the years go by.. Wolfsky9

[BeachBoysGuy]

I taped this off of TV years ago and still love it. Only one thing : the keyboard plays the wrong kind of diminished chord at the intro. God Bless Carl Wilson

[musicmatty67]

Two legends sounding great!

MusicMatty67 on Youtube

[DrHogfan]

I remember seeing this on TV! I never dreamed I'd see it and all these groovy Videos again. Thank you GOD for UTB.

[BeautifulPast]

Carl - my favourite Beach Boy - beautiful, gentle soul with an angelic voice.

May he rest in the peace of heaven ... where perfect music will be made!

Carl's voice was complimented nicely by Marilyn's ... another great talent!

[vinylmorpher]

Carl.. I love you and the music you and Brian gave us.. thank you and god bless :)

[Wolfsky9]

I saw this when it came out, and was just in awe; they were a great duo, complimenting each other wonderfully.  Carl, you are so greatly missed. Wolfsky9

[chandalyda]

I am so glad this video was put back. I love how it ends. Carl Wilson is one of my favorite singers. He was a beautiful man with his angelic voice. I wish I could still go and see him in person.

[philip0460]

Marilyn has a beautiful voice. She never riffs or oversings! Love her!

[coolsweetgroovy]

Wow Marilyn Wilson still looks great. sorry about the joke, but really look a t a picture of both Marilyn Wilson and Marilyn McCoo they look like twins.

[knightsaber67]

weird to see Carl without his guitar on this song...miss him though.

[ncarolinaluv]

Love Carl so much!!!!!!!!!! Miss him sooooooooooooo Much

with love

[jpe19940]

All Class!!!

[vdubmovieguy]

It's funny how Carl's voice is SWEETER than Marilyn's. Such a talent. Now he's entertaining the Angels in Heaven. I wish we had better sound quality on this video. You can hear it's a bit warbled. Still, I absolutely love Carl's change on the end of the song with the long .."God only knows......" Wow, gives me goosebumps! Thanks for posting!!

[rarebirdproductions]

I'm sorry, but I think it doesn't hold a candle to the original version. To me it almost sounds like something James Last could have done.

[yomamadontdanz]

rip carl..this was beautifulllll

[highflyer68]

I thought this might suck and BOY WAS I WRONG.

I forgot that Solid Gold was a good show when she hosted.

Marilyn did a great job making it her own without over singing.

[markflem]

What an absolutely beautiful woman with a gorgeous voice to match

[sargeanthulka]

There isn't television & talent like this anymore. Compared to this, anything on MTV is a dumpster of manure.

[linda164]

What a treat!  Thank you for postingthis!

[rasputin63]

Sir Paul McCartney has adjudged this to be the "most perfect pop song ever".

[hamevans01]

I loved this so much...I loved Carl Wilson and I have always loved Marilyn (What a treat to have them both doing this song) THanks for posting...

[Museumtvholder]

I really wish Marilyn had the power to put all of these wonderful duets and solo songs she sang on Solid Gold on a CD. I would purchase it in a heartbeat.

[vdubmovieguy]

Carl Wilson had the voice of an Angel. God rest his soul. Thanks for posting the video!

[philipjlaws]

Actually that's the late great Carl Wilson with Marilyn here. Thanks again for posting these fantastic Marilyn clips.

[mccoofan]

thanks! duly noted and video details now edited...!
