Description
This is our prototype version of Wonderful, a classic Beach Boys song (written by Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks from the legendary Smile album)

I have been having some trouble getting this to sound how I really want it to, so I got Winston Smith in to help me get the right vibe. (Thank you Winston - you are a life saver)

Its still not quite there....so look out for another version sometime in 2008

Vocals = Cat
Vocals = Bryn
Instruments = particledots
The 'right vibe' = Winston Smith (of The Leonids)

That artwork
borders on the cruel....!

Nice job here, all. Those "vocals up" cuts on the extended 'Pet Sounds' disc make me think of young Brian lying in the dark working out all those parts in his head..... who wouldn't want to cry?
Fine, fun, poignant track. Thank you,
