Mike Love disliked twice.

Does it get any better? Does it?

This album was kicking about my house for a while and I never thought to have a listen but, yesterday I was getting sick of Simon & Garfunkel and Bob Dylan so, I put it in and now I can't stop playing it: its just addictive. This song is the best in it followed by ''Song for Children''. Pure genius!

@ddr122 yes the SMiLE Sessions version is even better :)

i think this is better than the beatles.

Just discovered this album today. Oh my! Dare I say I like this better than Pet Sounds.

the title says it all really.

Now, how did he know that when we listened to this we would smile.

[mursemitch]

I listen to this cd all the time. Don;t know if that means I want to kill myself or not. It fails in making me think anything but "Damn."

No he isn't. He is talented... but he's not an artist.

[LakewooodWestPark]

Dear God but if this isn't beautiful, nothing is.

Simply and purely superb. Wonderful.

Not many people realise it but THIS was a demo version intended as a guide for Carl Wilson. It is not what Brian would have arranged in 1966.

We will never know how this or any unfinished smile song was intended to be arranged by Brian. The amount of interest and speculation has coloured every aspect of the project so much that we will never know what his vision was. Ironically, the intense speculation has allowed Brian to continue to leave his masterpiece unfinished.
