Want to hear a 30-second preview of every track from Brian Wilson's "SMiLE"?

[AKA]

Okay, if you insist!

This album will be nothing short of extraordinary. To my surprise, a lot of these renditions (at least what I heard) trump some of the "SMiLE" '67 versions.

September 28 can't come soon enough.

Last night I heard "In Blue Hawaii" and "Good Vibrations" in their entirety and was blown away.

Here they are, in MP3 form.

"In Blue Hawaii" was known amongst the SMiLE circle as "I Love To Say Dada." It even appeared officially under that title on the 1993 Good Vibrations box set.

The song was reworked in 1970 and became "Cool, Cool Water." The track appeared on the Sunflower album.

Here are the new/old "Good Vibrations" lyrics.

Good Vibrations
(B. Wilson/V.D. Parks/T. Asher/M. Love)

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And she's already workin' on my brain
I, I only looked in her eyes
But I picked up something I just can't explain
And I'm pickin' up...

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's givin' me the excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Ooh bop bop good vibrations bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations bop bop)
Good good good good vibrations
(Bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations bop bop)
Good good good good vibrations
(Bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations)

I, I bet I know what she's like
And I can feel how right she'd be for me
It's weird how she comes in so strong
And I wonder what she's pickin' up from me
And I'm pickin' up...

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's givin' me the excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Ooh bop bop good vibrations bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations bop bop)
Good good good good vibrations
(Bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations bop bop)
Good good good good vibrations
(Bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations)

(Ahhhhhhh)
(Ah my my what elation)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Ah my my what a sensation)
(Ah my my what elations)
(Ah my my what)

Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her

(Ahhhhhhh)

Good good good good vibrations
(Bop bop)
She's givin' me the excitations
(Excitations bop bop)
Good good good good vibrations

Na na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na
Do do do do do
Do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do

Cool, Cool Water (1970)

No need to post the 45 version of "Good Vibrations," as everyone and their dog has heard it.

thank you for posting this!
i really enjoyed hearing the 30 seconds previews.
i loved hearing all of them but i especially loved "song for children"
& "on-a-holiday" they are some of the best music i ever heard.
i just pre-order two copys of "brian wilson presents SMiLE" one for
my house and one for my car.

thanks again for posting these!

i just heard "in blue hawaii" and i was also blown away.
its way better than "cool,cool water" and thats really saying something!
including "our prayer" at the end was a stroke of genius!
"good vibrations" is almost as good as the original and thats really saying something!

i'm really looking forword to september 28th for the music event of alltime!
i would also like to add and i don't say this lightly "SMiLE" blows "SGT. PEPPERS LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND" out of the water and again thats really saying alot!
because "SGT. PEPPERS LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND" is one of my alltime favorite albums.
