Brian Wilson originally intended to sing lead vocal on 'God Only Knows' but in the end he sacrificed the lead vocal to his brother Carl: "Well, I thought I was gonna do it. As the song progressed, I said, 'Hey, I feel kind of natural doing this.' But when we completed creating the song, I said my brother Carl will probably be able to impart the message better than I could, so I sacrificed that one. But he had a good time singing it."

MrTomax, why don't you change your comments? This is the version on the record, the only thing unusual about it (to us) is that it's in mono.

The start of the game, before shit starts going down. There'll be an airboat of some kind with a barbershop quartet. "Columbia's gayest quartet" or something like that. Just look for the signs and they'll point you in the right direction.

Possibly the greatest song ever written in history in my humble opinion. And some of the comments on this song defy logic.

Brian is singing lead here. I have this on the Pet Sounds Sessions collection, it's called God Only Knows (Brian Sings Lead). He does sound a lot like Carl here, but then Brian had a surprising ability to alter his voice in unusual ways at this point. I'm almost certain he multi-tracked all the parts for I'm Waiting For The Day himself, and there are other instances where he takes over Mike's parts for a few beats.
