The Beach Boys - Sandy She Needs Me [AI]

No copyright infringement intended. This is an AI creation.
Backing track originally recorded in 1965, weeks after the backing track for "Sherry She Needs Me" was recorded.

[@Official_KC]

This is probably the best AI thing I've ever heard. Which ironically shows how much it matters who the human producer is

[@Shikta-poobah67]

Definitely, hands down the best A.I. thing I’ve ever heard. It’s kind of scary how good this is actually. I mean, we’re talking Brian Wilson here. I almost feel guilty for liking this as much as I do.

[@phariomarelle631]

should have been on Summer Day and Summer Nights

[@heinkle1]

It would be an absolute classic now as a result. It just perfectly captures that mid-60s Beach Boys peak

[@Shikta-poobah67]

This is light years better than at least half the songs on that album. I could make a list of all the songs that I’d happily get rid of to make room for this one, but it would take too long. Let’s just say I’d start with “I’m Bugged At My Ol’ Man”.

[@Mark-x7k]

An incredible job! This is so authentic and what a wonderful song! This should permanently replace ‘Bull session with Big Daddy’ on Beach Boys Today.

[@hahahayess]

Woah! This one was well worth the wait. Dae Lims is back and this is one of his best! 👏

[@jamie.lennon1]

Nice touch adding the fade-out tag that Brian does for Jeffrey Foskett's version of "Everything I Need". Works really well! I never realised Brian was pulling from Sandy in that song but it's so obvious to me now that he was!

[@hahahayess]

Thanks for pointing that out. I never heard it until now. Gorgeous fade-out. 🥰

[@DavidJoyce-nb4vd]

Phenomenal choice for a Dennis/Brian duet! As always the harmonies are spectacular and beautifully mixed! I always enjoy when your new tracks drop, such a pleasure 🤙

[@BehindTheSounds]

This is awesome, but I would still love to hear a version of "Sherry She Needs Me" using the 1965 wrecking crew backing track with Brian's '65 voice. Hopefully that can be made someday, though I realize the available sources for that aren't great.

[@trystero1729]

dude i didn’t know you were still around!! i studied your videos all the time as a kid when i was first getting into pet sounds

[@TBMono]

Please post more behind the sounds videos

[@JonasEurich]

I love this song, thank you. What a shame the boys didn’t complete it back in 1965.

[@teneb99]

It's completed now! 😊

[@andrewtownend4511]

Brian did finish this tune on his Imagination album but called the tune 'she says she needs me'.

[@timsmusicstuff]

Holy smokes this is what I've been waiting for since you started your projects. Nailed the vocal choices and arrangements. Blown away. I'm in Beach Boys Fan Fiction Fantasy Land. I did feel that the chorus vocals were a touch too loud, but it's a minor point. Keep doing your inspired work!

[@palamabron2481]

I'd love to hear a 60s version of Marcella.

[@78zappaf]

I just love it. Mind you I've never heard this track before (yes, I do have some Beach Boys official and unofficial discs), but you are introducing me to tracks and getting me to search out for more of their records! You are possibly THE best in these AI mixes, I can imagine people requesting you to work on other artists with their unfinished music.

[@danerd8978]

Not a bad rendition! We had the boys playing on the track and now we have them singing on it! That right folks, there are no Wrecking Crew members on this song. It's just Carl, Brian, Bruce and Ron Swallow.

[@funcamp_ltd.]

Was just listening to other AI versions of this yesterday, wishing you'd make a version. Needless to say you hit it out of the park again!

[@Woodehat28]

Bro whatttt. I recommended this to you months ago. I’m so grateful thanksss

[@paulharvey7223]

Brian ….. and Dennis!! Excellent work, sounds great,love the organ and Mike sounds great as well. I’ve been a Beach Boys fan for a very long time and I completely agree with what you are doing. Meanwhile this is another treat to play and play 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤

[@MrTony.S]

Stunning beautiful. I'm sure Brian would be touched by this.

[@wobbadubbs5747]

I have been wanting to request this song.......this is literal gold.

[@Esskaa68]

Another masterpiece 👏👍. I can almost hear Dennis, Brian and Mike. The outro is beyond beautiful 😊.

[@vKarl7]

The “said goodbye” lines in the outro aren’t AI, however. Those are the only vocals recorded for the 1965 backing track.

[@JeffreyDahmenator]

@@vKarl7and Mike’s “Sandy baby”

[@michaelhiggins-jz2cg]

Spectacular job…This was one of the most sophisticated pieces of music Brian had written back in 1964, and to hear young Dennis’ voice on it in place of Brian’s’ gruff mid 1970’s voice is fantastic and only makes one wonder why this very sophisticated piece of music was left unfinished until the Imagination album came out thirty five years later…This piece is right there with it…

[@Fagnertube]

Brian reused this melody in the song "She Says That She Needs Me" from his 1998 album, "Imagination".

[@StratocastRS]

The vocal models are fantastic on this one. Love it. Great track all around, excellent work as always.

[@tf2fanboy]

This is amazing, it sounds just like something Brian and the Boys would have recorded and released in 1965. Great work as always.

[@thebottomband]

Nice to give the drummer some!

[@jacksonrogers6751]

Another fantastic job. You're doing incredible stuff

[@eratic0311]

omg i've been waiting for this when you released the Guess I'm Dumb video.

[@pakovitz4088]

I'm loving to see a active community of Beach Boys fans here in your channel, thanks for all your work! ❤

[@Zenron9000]

Thank you Dae Lims!

[@DanimalistBoot]

You, sir, have brought a great deal of joy to my life over the past year.

[@ricomerrell]

YOU ARE ON AN ABSOLUTE ROLL!!!

[@zzbzq1]

Brian Wilson "finished" this song in 1998, reworked as "She says that she needs me." Though a bit overproduced and doesn't have the charm of 1960s recording quality, it's nonetheless the best song on that disc. This is the first AI version where I'm not sure it's the superior version, but it's good to hear what could have been.

[@spookybathtub7006]

Brian really did not need that much auto tune on imagination at that time. It's fascinating because of how much superior material he was coming up with in the 90s that mostly never saw the light of day commercially.

[@peterjoslyn1]

Yeah also there’s a great 60s version on the Made in California box set, more or less complete.

[@boscotheman82]

@@peterjoslyn1 That's a mix between the remaining pieces of Sandy mixed with Brian's 70's vocal from Sherry

[@davidfriend4328]

@@spookybathtub7006 I didn't know they used auto-tune on Brian's voice on Imagination. I just assumed they had layered it in a lot of harmonies to cover the deficiencies in his voice.

[@peterwoodward540]

Dae you're bringing a lot of joy into the world making stuff like this. The verse voice sounds like a Dennis Brian hybrid, AI Brenny perhaps?

[@jamie.lennon1]

I think he deliberately made it Brian and Dennis singing together. A double-tracked Dennis just doesn't sound right. I'm not the only one who thinks this apparently!

[@MonotoneTim]

You’re a wizard, the fidelity of the vocals and strength of the composition is truly impressive.

[@JS-ej4lb]

Best version of this that I've heard

[@JacksonBetz]

This gorgeously and lovingly rendered rendition of one of my longtime favorite unreleased Beach Boys gems is the best birthday present I could’ve asked for!! Thanks Dae Lims :)

[@AprilShowers1955]

Magnificent! Love this! Please keep them coming just like this!😊❤

[@ronharper9084]

Awesome as always , the Beach boys sound great in Ai mode well done.

[@maitlen4021]

Nothing less than sublime!

[@ChessMess]

Thank you for the beautiful music.

[@intheTRAFFIC]

Art. I would love to hear That’s Why God Made The Radio next.

[@timsmusicstuff]

I love that one, too. I also really like "Isn't It Time," although Al's vocal doesn't need to be changed because his voice remained ::chef's kiss::

[@jackdaniels6531]

The outro is so good I wish it was extended.

[@jimmast09]

Wow! Please don’t stop! This is amazing!

[@Larce89]

Been waiting for this one. I like Sherry with 76' Brian, but this is like a time machine. Thanks for doing it!

[@jamesdean9183]

You should do Brian Wilson’s “Love And Mercy” as a 60s Beach Boys song!! 😁

[@SoulArrow.]

so damn impressive how you blend so seamlessly between those ai vocals and the real ones at the end

[@jeffprata7047]

Amazing as usual!!!

[@singtogetheryoutube]

awesome, I love your work!

[@zedxxx9]

Wow!!! I missed the notification for this one. Just hearing it now. Fantastic!!

[@AbananaPEEl]

One of my favorite Brian wilson solo songs. I was actually looking around the other day to see if anyone had done this one yet.

[@patrickdykes9709]

This is great

[@tf2fanboy]

2:04 god this part is SO COOL! I love the harmonies and the vocal arrangement, it sounds just like something they actually would've done it's insane.

[@ThePokeMasterN12]

It is, most of those at that part are real vocals from the instrumental. Most of the outro and all of Mike's lines at the end of the choruses are authentic vocals.

[@tf2fanboy]

@@ThePokeMasterN12 that explains it then lol, now I feel dumb

[@ThePokeMasterN12]

That's not to downplay Dae's ability, just wanted to clarify. And fairly enough, Dae did add like, two harmonies to the end. Some other commenter suggested it's a reference to another song Brian worked on, very neat if true.

[@krismerzoian7313]

I covered this song 2 years back and it’s crazy how similar our vocal arrangements turned out. I would love to have heard what my take would sound like with your production

[@Studioscot57]

Whenever another Dae Lims ‘jewel’ lands and no matter what I am doing, I just sit back and let the waves of aural bliss wash over me on repeat. Joy. Thank you man.

[@oliverlearmonth]

These AI beach boys are so well done

[@Shikta-poobah67]

There’s more? From the same source?

[@aceven2raa]

I've been waiting so long for this and it was absolutely incredible, thank you, Dae Lims!!! Is there some more Dennis coming in the future? A 1960's version of Mona perhaps?

[@benoitbrohet4957]

Wonderful !!!! Great job !!!

[@ServocityLevelsHigh]

Murry Wilson VS Ike Turner, Street Fighter 8

[@LegenGary69]

Yes.

[@superpretend]

Wow Dennis on lead is an interesting choice! Thank you for your work as always! It’s baffling that Brian re-recorded the backing track with the boys when he already recorded a superior version with the Wrecking Crew. The timing on this one is so loose, kinda sounds like the demo to the earlier recording!

[@darinhughes7798]

Been way too long/Can't wait too long please!

[@DanimalistBoot]

Playing this at 106% speed makes it even better. Kind of like the way groups used to speed up singles.

fargin amazing

[@artapollo3367]

Dennis on the verses and then Brian ?

[@GoodGamer3000]

Legendary. This is one of the perfect songs for this. Is that Dennis? Some of those parts sound a bit like older Brian haha

One of the greatest songs that never was

[@SonnyWilson1967]

Had done a take on a finished version of this song, think I will have a go at it at some point. Model I made at that period isnt exactly all that good personally. I like that you used the 1964 version, wondered how somebody would go at it. :-)

[@josephsebring7903]

I remember your take on this. With this technology having exponentially advanced even within the time frame of your initial take, I'd be very curious to see how another go at this would turn out for you!! BTW, I love the first part of the singles collection that you've thrown together!! I can't wait to hear more

[@SonnyWilson1967]
