    When Brian closes his eyes I bet he sees their harmony in colors.
    He certainly gets more than 99% of us do..

    For a man who has difficulty showing emotion towards others, when he sees those children walk out his eyes light up and he smiles a very real, very big smile. He can connect with children since he is, in the best possible way, just a grown child at heart himself. Just wonderful.

    I've just watched "Love and Mercy" the film last night and I cried when Brian sang this at the end. I searched every version today and I couldn't keep my eyes open with this version. Love was pouring everywhere.
    I feel grateful to be alive here and now. It's an honor to spend some time with you Brian. Thanks Brian and everyone who made this event possible. Thank you for your services and love.

    Just realize that Brian's obsession was make music that sound like an teenage celestial arrangement....well Mr Wilson, this is a perfect example that your legacy always will be in our hearts...❤...and I forgot...the child is the father of the man...😊

    I love the reaction of the audience to the beach balls. Instead of grabbing them, they all smile and playfully hit them back up into the air as if they were all children again with their friends at the beach, keeping the magic going. Appropriately, Diana Ross did catch one and then give it to Brian Wilson.

    This was such a wonderful memorable occasion, sung from the heart by Libera and the accompanying choir in presentation to Brian Wilson of his own lyrics the Beech Boys would sing. I did see another liken video take of this some years back, whereas this is the original I have not before seen. Brian made comment after, I think back stage…that Libra sung so well, they could have easily sung the whole album of the Beech Boys.

      if you only knew how difficult the beach ball effect was to orchestrate as the producer wanted the effect to be "ethereal" and a classic beach ball falls like a rock...one of the greatest shows/effects I ever had the pleasure of working on...
