(But not like THAT)

Cool Head, Warm Heart - sounds like scrapped session material from Summer in Paradise (which I actually kind of like.... :X). I bet Mike thought this was a real jam when he was recording it.

Anything for You - I thought Mike Love hated Love You?

Pisces Brothers - Barf. Happy birthhhhhhhhh-days back in time. Rewrite lyrics. Then he sings about the maharishi....okay, skipping the rest of this one

Everyone's in Love with You - coming from Mike Love, this is a gross title because you know he's singing about some chick who's 1/3 his age. Atrocious synths and surprisingly low key. Get Mike a cup of coffee.

10000 Years Ago - Mike Love does Funkadelic. Or is it Savage Garden? "Ohm, shantih shantih" - WTF.

Glow Crescent Glow - zzzzzzzzzz

Too Cruel - more anachronistic '90s drum loops and reggae sounds though quite a decent groove as it is sung by his son. Fun fact: Christian Love wears a hat too: http://www.dahoovsplace.com/Events/Concerts/BeachBoys/ChristianLoveGuitarist7.jpg

Brian's Back - not any more he's not

I Don't Wanna Know - sounds kind of like Fastball, or Carl Wilson. It sounds like they picked up their backup instruments at a church that went out of business.

Love Foundation - terrible lukewarm pap

Only One World - this would be impressive if it had been written by a nine-year-old

Main takeaway: Christian Love is kind of a good singer?

He re-recorded this? Jeeeeeee...

Three Christmas songs and a Springsteen cover. Nicely done.
