The song of the day is Friends. This song is written by Brian, Carl, Dennis Wilson and Al Jardine. It was released on their 1968 album Friends. It was also released as a single, with the B-side of the single being Little Bird. The single peaked at #47 in the U.S. and #25 in the U.K. The song was recorded in March 1968. The song was recorded in 4/4 time for its first take. Immediately after, Brian rearranged the song after realizing that there werent many waltzes on the radio. Brian Wilson once stated, The cut Friends was, in my opinion, a good way to keep waltzes alive. Carl had sung...before and now he spearheaded this cut with a heavy vocal performance. As Peter Reum, a Beach Boys historian, stated Friends is a waltz, and its been used at the Berklee College of Music to teach students how to write in 3/4 time. Brian has since claimed that the song was his favorite from the Friends album. https://youtube/watch?v=45LpOzVcKYw
