    Love that these two got together. I've been a Carole fan since I was a teenager. Deserved to be more than one of the Target Special extras. They sold them for $10. Glad I got one. 4/5, 8/10. "I'm Into Something Good" has become part of my That Lucky Old Sun play-back, even when I don't play the other two.

    This song is interesting but it just goes on and on and on. I feel like the melody doesn't really warrant 3:50. 2:50 might have been good. The sound is an interesting sort of Brian Wilson Band upgrade of Love You (synths and all.) I feel that after the synth solo one or two verses would have been enough, and end it. We don't need two verses, another chorus and the final verse would have done nicely.

    A potential 4/5 but it drags so 3/4

    I think this is the strongest of the outtakes, and I like the wacky synths, but it's still only worthy of a 3.

    I dont like this song. Especially the lyrics. He lifted it from Murry so maybe it's not his fault. 2/5

    It’s the worst on Carole’s voice. Interestingly, whoever mixed That Lucky Old Sun used it judiciously.

    Isn’t Van Dyke credited with the lyrics? Very atypical for him if true. Just an OK song that overstays it’s welcome. 2/5

    Why isn't Murry credited? Can his estate/ghost sue Brian?

    Brian struggles vocally with the key and tempo changes here.

    A rather forgettable track.

    2/5.

    Can anyone post the Murry tune? I'm in for 4/5, 8/10, as I like it, and the lyrics are fine with me. Sounds like Van Dyke was going for a nursery rhyme type deal.

    Don't think his ghost can sue but maybe Mike Love will take up the case :D

    Just Like Me and You

    Not sure I'd ever heard that one before. Pretty energetic performance by Brian. A little corny and too long, as Lance said,.

    I'll give it a 3/5.

    "Just Like Me and You" could definitely be reworked into a great track. It has a lot going for it, so it wouldn't take much. It reminds me a mid-60s, Today-era style of song. If this is his throw away "bonus track" material, I'm beginning to think this Brian Wilson guy has some talent.

    A strong 3/5. But could easily be more.

    This should have been in the movie "Grace Of My Heart"!

    I really think the band arrangment is pretty great; Brian's vocal not so much. Brian cared enough to write his own middle 8 that was pretty cool but not enough to produce it well.

    Eh, 3/5.
