Sheesh. All this time I thought Mike Love was Satan.
I couldn't get the video clip to open. I'll check back later.
I am certainly not an authority on Brian Wilson or the Beach Boys, but FWIW, my take on this is, Brian Wilson has been controlled by many things in his life; mind crippling drugs, a psychologist who literally held him captive for years, drug induced paranoia, etc., but I don't for a minute believe that he is "Satanic". Is it too simplistic to conclude that the hell he lived through for so many years was the consequences of drug abuse, pure and simple?
Now I have an overwhelming feeling of sadness for him and what he has lived through, even if it has been self-inflicted.....still, it's very sad.
He has an amazing talent and I am happy he is writing music and performing again, and that he finally won his Grammy. You are right, tame, it was long overdo.
