Yes, and I believe the name of the bootleg is "The Cocaine Sessions" or something like that. The song is a real stinker. No offense to Beach Boys fans. I love them, especially Brian.

Wait. What?! Stevie and Brian Wilson!?! Eww! Who hasn’t she laid down in the tall grass and shown her stuff!?

Not many roadies or stage crew get to shack up with the band. DO TELL.
I would love to know his feelings on You Make Loving Fun. I cant imagine a song like that written for me ;)

possibly more than one....

whoever posted this, thanks ,this was great.

Who organized that whole meet up? Fantastic.

I want to know if Frozen Love was recorded at any of those early shows that they say it was done live at. They all said it was incredible.

I want to hear it, since it is the only way we'll ever hear those two do that song live. :mad:

Yes in the Destiny Rules doco they refer to this song as Monica (Lewinsky).... But my thoughts have been that this may have been a bit of a smoke screen to cover up lyrics that were semi-autobiographical :shrug:

Yes. She referred to it as Monica in the Destiny Rules documentary. There are refrences in the song though that seem to be drawn from her own life.

OMG, it's like The Ledge has finally reached the peak I've always dreamed of.:]

She(and Mick) will always be the ones who killed it. I hope that it haunts them to their graves. Self absorbed, delusional asses, they are.

If anyone is curious: the lyrics to Brian Wilson's "Stevie" (apologies for the antiquated site design)
