  1. *Lucas Hamming* was one of the finalists for the Best Singer & Songwriter
    in the Netherlands 2013 and this was his chosen song.
    He clearly has the judges in awe but somehow imho he just lost it
    slightly, by his choice. If he had sung ‘Scratching The Surface’ , he would
    have won. Here is his memorable performance. (Among the judges are 3FM
    djs). The song is ‘ Green eyed man’.

    Green eyed man is walking home
    Waving all the angels goodbye
    No sign of coming back tonight
    Green eyed man is walking home

    His desire let him turn his back
    The angel whispers a gentle hello
    Not thinkin ’bout coming home
    But fighting the desires with his dirty hands

    She got him, and rid his mind
    She says she love him, but she lies
    Now the candle light is slowly fading out

    Collect the courage to bare your dirty soul
    Or are you too scared?
    Are you too scared to bare to the truth?
    Blood stains on the wedding dress,
    An albatross around his neck

    “Have you seen Lucy? She’s waiting for me”
    “No, ’cause she tuned on the lights
    and closed her eyes.
    And let the lies slip through her mind”?

  2. Deze gast is goed, maar hij zou je in je gezicht uitlachen als je zegt dat
    je hem beter vindt dan Jeff Buckley. Op de Muse vergelijking ga ik niet
    eens in, omdat het simpelweg nergens op slaat.

  3. Vijf keer geluisterd. wanneer gaat dit liedje vervelen? Ik heb besloten te
    gaan slapen en dit liedje op te sparen het is te mooi om kappot te spelen.

    SONGWRITER 1962-1969 WONDERFULLY DONE, BUT NO REAL NEW INSIGHTS, October 17, 2010

    Amazon Customer (Michigan) –

    This review is from: Brian Wilson: Songwriter 1962-1969 (DVD)
    Brian Wilson is a musical genius. There isn’t any doubt about this former Beach Boy’s contribution to music during the 20th century. Over the last several years, there have been several DVD releases covering Brian’s work and of the Beach Boys. However, the bulk of these do tend to cover the same exact time period and aspects of his seminal and influential career.

    Where is the definitive documentary? Something comparing to the fascinating Keith Badham book, THE BEACH BOYS: THE DEFINITIVE DIARY OF AMERICA’S BAND ON STAGE AND IN THE STUDIO, or Peter Garlin’s book, CATCH A WAVE: THE RISE, FALL, REDEMPTION OF THE BEACH BOY’S, BRIAN WILSON.
    I’m still waiting for a new documentary, about the making of such under-rated, now – in recent years re-discovered Beach Boy classic albums such as, Friends, Sunflower, Surf’s Up, Holland, and Love You. I’m waiting for a definitive documentary about Brian’s controversial time with now-defunct pyschotherapist, Dr. Eugene Landy. Where’s the documentary, just about the three Wilson brothers?

    This new release, BRIAN WILSON: SONGWRITER 1962-1969 treads NO new ground. It continues with the NOW standard Beach Boy/Brian Wilson DVD formula – covering the exact same time period, as all previous DVD’s.

    Astoundingly ambitious (clocking in at 3 hours), BRIAN WILSON: SONGWRITER 1962-1969 simply polishes up the mythos with excellent technical filmmaking, including Wilson’s essential ‘Smile’ era home demo recording of ‘Surf’s Up’ as the main motif and theme for this release. The film features an almost completely cast of one time Beach Boy insiders and music critics that openly discuss Wilson’s musicianship, songwriting, and personality.

    Quickly, the film does give mention to the production of one of Beach Boy’s most under-rated albums, Friends. It’s just enough to get you interested then it leaves. The key stand-out here is on screen commentary from perhaps, the ultimate Beach Boys expert, Dominic Priore. Beach Boy die hards will appreciate his poignant comments on Wilson’s career. Priore has been writing about Wilson and the Beach Boys for perhaps the longest, with his work going back the late 80’s with his uber important print release covering the lost 1966-67 ‘Smile’ album sessions, buzz, speculation and press coverage, ‘LOOK, LISTEN, VIBRATE, SMILE.’

    The packaging in which the film comes with is wonderful. A gatefold DVD, cardboard print that features classic images of Wilson in studio, during production of the greatest album of all time, 1966’s Pet Sound’s .

    Overall, while this presentation features nothing new, it’s a fresh reminder of Wilson’s enigma that will hopefully keep him on the hearts and minds of his fans. BRIAN WILSON: SONGWRITER 1962-1969 is a great place for Wilson newbies to start their music education, and provide die hard Wilson collector’s another DVD for their Wilson/Beach Boy’s library. Buy it.

    in depth profile of a true musical genius, November 16, 2010

    This review is from: Brian Wilson: Songwriter 1962-1969 (DVD)
    How much of a genius was Brian Wilson? You can hear it on Pet Sounds, you can hear it in all his innovative compositions, vocal arrangements, singing and ambition all the way to the long road to finishing Smile decades after it was due. Another way is to understand the long history of Wilson, The Beach Boys, the record industry and the culture in which they arrived and many documentary programs have tried to do this well. None of them have succeeded as well as Brian Wilson – Songwriter: 1962 – 1969, an exceptional work from the U.K. company Sexy Intellectual

    Running over three hours (and over two DVDs), the makers have dug deep into every archive they could, interviewed as many key figures as they could, gone through every album the band made with Brian Wilson running things along with the results after he handed over creative control to the rest of the band and an exceptional look at American pop culture and overall history that includes rare footage and audio.

    All the original Beach Boys songs have been licensed, as well as other music, including songs Wilson made for other artists. We get more information on the conflict between him and his father, plus more about Capitol Records than you might imagine. Once I started to watch, I could not stop and Beatles fans will want to get this set because there is more Beatles here than usual, but it is the biography of Brian Wilson that is front and center, finally giving the American Treasure his due as the genius he was and still is.
