Nice one, Alan.  "I'm gettin' bugged always voting off the same old stuff I gotta find a new track where the vocals sound rough" Yes, even the Brian-sanctioned mono version of "Noble Surfer" sounds iffy at the word "sea" etc... That said, I wouldn't change a darn thing.  |

Beetroot Ooh Your’s Cool gets my vote. Always found it too gung-ho and threatening in its nature. It’s the school bully song.

“Bugged” has been bugged orf, Brian’s comedy ditty that has delighted armchair psychologists for many a decade is OUT! Get ova it!

Another tough round of BB Survivor is upon us, but there's still some stubble to shave off the list of Car and Love songs from the lion's share of vintage albums.
I'm going In The Parking Lot - nice enough, some humorous lyrics and an interestingly different time signatured intro and midtro group vocal (as revealed once the verse starts), but Brian's falsetto seems a bit strained and the bulk of the tune is a solid album track as opposed to a wow!

I voted for In The Parking Lot, it is probably one of the only Beach Boys songs, that upon looking at the title I don't remember how it goes at all.

I love In The Parkin' Lot - a nice slice of American teen/high school life sandwiched by a great intro and outro.

I like "In the Parking Lot", but picked it. No way it lasts long with all the Hits left on this list.
It will be tough to get this down to just ten songs.

That was my issue too until it got the accapella airing on the Keep An Eye On Summer CopEx release. And now I know it and love it… can’t underestimate the effect of the CopEx releases. |

I listened to it again last night, and remembered it, but for some reason, I always forget about it. I do like it when I listen to it. |

Although I like it, I'm voting off Your Summer Dream just so In the Parkin' Lot hangs around at least one more round. It deserves it for the vocal intro and outro alone, and I actually think it's a better song than some of the 1965 candidates.

Just got enough time to park a vote in the lot before heading off for more looney tunes with some of my loved ones. And if it keeps Your Summer Dream in the game a while longer then I'll sleep happy tonight. |

But, sadly, I must dash Pete’s and mine hopes of a respective happy slumber, as Your Summer Dream gets the gong!
But wait, In The Parking Lot has garnered the same amount of votes - so to then, it’s outta here!
Whoa! Be back soon as we resume with another round of Car and Girl songs!

Favorites will fall, and it bugs me, baby! Larry Williams performs this great 1957 classic - the flip of "Bony Maronie" Written by Larry and Sonny Bono: |

Ok, we should try and get a round in before the BIG ONE flows upon us very very very soon!
These guys wrote way too many love songs (LOL) and we need to chip away at the remaining tunes.
I'm going Wendy at this stage, because it's arguably the least accomplished track within an embarrassment of riches, as they say. Sorry to see her go, but that's the brief.
Go hard, friends!

We certainly should.  I voted out "Rhonda" simply because I heard it far too often at the time (and prefer the mellow, h-less album version). |

I went with Keep an Eye on Summer, but may need to change in order to save Farmer's Daughter if it looks like that song is going to be voted off.
