    That a song this old is so beyond powerful proves Brian Wilson was years ahead in how music is created...That was superb....Brian, your work will never be equaled.

    Brian Wilson said he wrote this with Ray Charles in mind. Darius Rucker provides that soulful delivery here. Perhaps the highlight of a tremendous evening of music from top talent.

    You wouldn't think these guys would go together...but man, the smooth, clean vocals of Sweet, mixed with the raspy voice of Rucker...a match made in heaven.

    One of my all time favorite RUclips videos always go to it when I am surfing. Read some posts about who does it best. Sweet and Rucker hit it out of the park..Everybody who attempts to sing this song must ask themselves what in the fuck do these lyrics mean. Its a difficult song to sing. I just read recently that Brian Wilson did not write the stupid lyrics and because of that he never liked the song.......

  • @shirleypena4133
    @shirleypena4133 4 года назад +2

    Sadly, Brian played almost no part in writing the lyrics to this song. That's why many of the lyrics don't flow well together in sound or ideas, sound choppy and predictable where one lyricist ends and another begins. It was a case of too many cooks spoiling the pot=too many people contributing lyrics. The best crafted songs always avoid having too damn many people helping to write the song. When I listen to this song I can easily tell what Brian Wilson, the great Van Dyke Parks ('Heroes & Villains') and Tandyn Almer ('Along Comes Mary') composed and wrote, because it demonstrates genuine song crafting ability. What was done by Jack Rieley (the band's manager) and Ray Kennedy doesn't merit inclusion in this song. I wish this song had been written and composed primarily by Brian Wilson, with marginal assistance from Van Dyke Parks and Tandyn Almer. I think it would have been vastly superior to the end product that made it to the recording. As for the lead vocal, I think that Matthew Sweet really hit the ball out of the park with his performance here; actually delivered a much better vocal performance that Blondie Chaplin did on the studio recording.
