Description
When Brian Wilson heard The Beatles Rubber Soul album, it inspired and challenged him to create an album of his own that would stand as an equal. And he pulled it off. Universally considered one of the greatest albums of all time, Pet Sounds is a testament to Brian's genius as a songwriter, arranger & producer.
The album includes some all-time classics like "God Only Knows" and "Wouldn't it Be Nice", but on this episode, I'd like to focus on one of my favorites on the record-- "You Still Believe in Me".
Like most of the songs on Pet Sounds, this is a very personal song, a confession of a young man who knows he's failing as a husband, but can't help himself. Brian's vocal is pure, honest, and perfect. And when those harmonies come in... I melt. Let's listen together.

Starz - "She": A great hard rock & power pop band that somehow fell through the cracks in the late '70's, Starz had all the ingredients to make it big-- a band of seasoned professionals with a charismatic frontman, a big-name manager, and a record deal with Capitol Records... but while bands like Foreigner, Styx & Boston sold millions of records, Starz just couldn't break thru to a larger audience. Too bad, because these guys had some great rock tunes. Here's one of their power-pop tracks that serves as a great example of how to write a catchy, memorable song. by I'm In Love With That Song Podcast
