Pet Sounds & Pet Dreams
I had an incredible dream recently. In this dream Brian Wilson was at my place of work, it was one of those situations in a dream that defies all logic but seems completely right...of course Brian Wilson is here at work, it's a monday! He was standing behind a piano banging the keys. He then commenced teaching me these really complicated vocal lines for a new song he'd written. He was laughing at me because I wasn't singing well, I don't have a great singing voice (though I've been told I have a extremely pleasant speaking voice). His voice was Pet Sounds/Smile era Brian Wilson, clear and soaring, like it was before he went on his path of uncontrolled self destruction. It was beautiful, really brilliant and vivid....Then I suddenly awoke to my cat bellowing. I was immediately upset with the cat for waking me up from this beautiful dream. I yelled out, 'Skitty, shut the fuck up!'... I then quickly came to the realization that I had been incorporating Skitty's bellowing into my dream, she was the Brian Wilson vocal parts...sweet irony.
