Hi Gary, Oddly enough, I heard it for the very first time this 
morning on the way into work! It a very cool song. Beautiful really. 
It's off of "little red riding hood". The living room show host gave 
me this tape per my buying a couple CD's.  I've only heard one side 
of the tape but several songs sound very good, but this was clearly a 
stand out. One disc I bought that is more recent, is called "gift 
horse" and it has some very good songs on it too.  "Ditto" could do 
many pop types proud.
  Oddly enough Gary, I listened to the song and was struck by how 
cool it sounds.. But the lyrics were both fun to listen to per the 
subject but also bugged me a bit.  They tend to fall into the 
converting thing/having THE answer for someone else (which, for MY 
head is problematic). That said it's a beautiful sounding song 
(whether one relates to the lyrics or not).  
They still are kind interesting given they are about "our" 
Brian ...see below.
Best, Steve

Jesus, Loves you Brian Wilson



When I first heard you
Well, I was just a kid
And you sang "doo-wah doo-wah"
Every note from you was
Like a letter from home
When you went "doo-wah, doo-wah"
But for too many years
It's been sounding pretty weird
When you sang "doo-wah, doo-wah"
It made me feel so bad
I had to find out what happened
To your "doo-wah, doo-wah"

I paid the price and leafed
Through every book that I could find
About your "doo-wah doo-wah"
I found a soul on ice
A broken heart a broken mind
Trying to "doo-wah doo-wah"
Felt helpless when I knew
That you weren't in control
Of your "doo-wah, doo-wah"
But there's a guy I know
And he's waiting here to
Help you with your "doo-wah, doo-wah"

Oh won't you pray
(Jesus loves you Brian Wilson)
That's what I say
(Jesus loves you Brian Wilson)
You're a crazy man
(Jesus loves you Brian Wilson)
He understands
(Jesus loves you Brian Wilson)
Come on and pray
You've nothing to lose
And everything to gain
You're already insane
He's right there to love you
He's so proud of you
You know that he'll place
No one above you
His love's gonna heal you
'Cause he made the real you
No way he could steal from you
Reach out and you'll feel it too
