[BeatlesForever]

I need to add three honorable mention songs that did not make my list, they are:

(1.) Wouldn't It Be Nice
(2.) Sail On Sailor
(3.) Kiss Me Baby

P.S. If Brian would have sang "Still I Dream Of It" much better, I would have included the song on my list. Take care. 

[Joost]

I think his voice fits the song perfectly. I always though the song was about a damaged, depressed man trying hard to think happy thoughts. And that's what he sounds like.

[Ovi]

Songs:

01.Surf's Up
02.Good Vibrations
03.I'm Waiting For The Day
04.God Only Knows
05.Caroline, No
06.Sloop John B
07.Forever
08.Heroes and Villains
09.Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder)
10.In My Room

As for albums, I've only listened to "Sunflower" and "Pet Sounds". I like them both, but I prefer the latter.

Hi Joost! I never thought about it that way Joost! There are some photographs of Brian in the studio during the recording of the "Still I Dream Of It" sessions, one photo shows Brian sleeping at the piano. Brian really looked out of it during those moments but he did get through it. This was also one of the first songs that Brian sang without his infamous trademark falsetto voice. I take it that you know that Brian originally wrote "Still I Dream Of It" for FRANK SINATRA to record? Take care Joost.

[Joost]

I used to date Wendy in the early 80's, she is such a sweetheart. She caught me with another woman and dumped me. MY LOSS! Take care Joost.   

Are you sure it was in the early 80s? As Wendy Wilson was born in 1969, she was in her early teens at the time.

2. Good Vibrations
3. I Get Around
4. Dance, Dance, Dance
5. California Girls
6. Sloop John B.
7. You Still Believe In Me
8. Help Me, Rhonda
9. Don't Worry Baby
10. Here Today

Hi Joost! I was a very bad boy at the time. Wendy was 14 years old going on 20 and I was 22 at the time. If you thought this was bad, Denny, at age 38, asked out my 14 year sister which she accepted without my mother knowing of course. Take care.

Joost, did a Wendy figure significantly in either Brian or Mike's life in 1964?

Hi BeatlesForever, I'm fine and you? You may have noticed that my list mostly includes well known songs. I know I must listen to more Beach Boys records.

Greetings to Babara Ann (was she named after the song?).

I'm doing great Hombre_de_ningun_lugar, thanks for asking. Its the well known BEACH BOYS songs that draws you in and makes you want to listen to more different BEACH BOYS songs. Yes, my Girlfriend was named Barbara Ann after her parents heard THE BEACH BOYS' version. The original version was by THE REGENTS. Take care.

I absolutely love Pet Sounds. I gave a listen to other albums like Today, Friends and Sunflower, but I should go deeper into their stuff.

I feel confident that you are going to love THE BEACH BOYS' music when your mind expands further and deeper into their music. You're really off to a great start. Take care.

I guess you're right since I really love what I know now.

[KelMar]

I love Pet Sounds too and I probably wouldn't have ever listened to it if not for the things I've read about it here on the forum.

There's always curiosity about THE BEACH BOYS' music especially after you hear the band's more popular songs. How's the weather in Argentina? Take care.

Hi In My Life! I'm very thankful that Joost wrote a thread about THE BEACH BOYS here on the forum. PET SOUNDS is ranked as one of the Top 10 all-time greatest masterpieces ever! Take care.

Today is a sunny day here, thanks God. What about your place?
