One of Bri's best unreleased songs.

@Stumptacular - I completely agree, in so many pictures/footage of Landy with Brian. Landy's physically all over him, hanging off his neck, like a slimy little limpet, it's so disturbing.

[JuxtaposeMystery]

AHHH ive never heard this

[coolsweetgroovy]

Of course Brian sleeps alne has anyone ever seen Melinda?(Barf) can't blame him 4 liking to sleep alone now Brian and Marilyn Forever

A real nice BW composition. Should've been released in one of Brian's later solo albums somewhere .. maybe Landy got in the way ..damn him.

@ricfl10137 Perhaps so...but there still should have been some balance of what Landy did do for Brian and where he is today in terms of being a performer. He's nothing today compared to what he is in this video..just seems strange...he should be the better performer today with Landy gone..but he's not.

@musicmatty67 well he also was losing half of everything he made to him. and was living in a rented house while landy was in his mansion. all interactions videotaped and surveyed not allowed to talk to his daughters, family or band, so landy could keep taking complete advantage of brian. and overmedicated to not be able to make his own decisions and brainwashed. the way he performed has nothing to do with allowing an evil man like that to stay around.

@AlohaMike why brian would have stayed in bed a little longer. he got him to lose weight and off drugs. landy is a complete leech did you see the barbara walters interview. he was taking half of everything brian earned and was living in his mansion while brian was sleeping in a rented house and wouldn't let him speak to any of his family, daughters included. i think the damage done to brian from the overmedicating is pretty obvious, just song writing credits alone on this song is creepy.

[InsanEssence]

I want the lyrics of the song...!

[paul7703]

Mysterious indeed. Cool looking piano!

@clibinarius Yes, that was what prompted the glasses discussion. However, I once saw a pic of him in high school wearing glasses. We were just wondering if he was really WEARING them then, or just goofing off again. :-)

@Okiemom50 There are a bunch around the time of Pet Sounds with Brian in the studio wearing the exact same type of glasses as here-if not the same pair.
