I have to admit, I've wondered if demons have tried to keep Brian Wilson down, because he is so talented and could do so much good. I don't know -- there's a fine line where illness stops and evil influences begin. However, I don't think that Brian Wilson is at all Satanic or anything -- if anything, he's tried to escape the darkness and reach the light. Besides, anyone who recorded such a beautiful version of "The Lord's Prayer" and opened SMiLE with "Our Prayer" is OK in my book...
Yup. Great post, Mike.
