Good one.

Note/chord analysis videos are always interesting to me.

@tablejockey: I love the Virgin Rock woman, I’ve watched a lot of her videos (though I missed the one you posted a link to. Thanks!). A classically trained musician’s reaction to Pop music can be very interesting.

From one of the comments to her video I learned that George Martin cited "God Only Knows" as his favorite non-Beatles Pop song of the 1960’s. I’ll up him one by including The Beatles. I don’t think John, Paul, or George wrote a song as good as GOK. Or many other Brian Wilson songs for that matter.
