}} "Brian Wilson" is a song by the Canadian musical group Barenaked Ladies. It was released as a single from the band's debut studio album, ''Gordon''. The song was written by singer/guitarist Steven Page in his parents’ basement on his twentieth birthday, in 1990. The first lines of the song chronicle one of his many late-night journeys to the Sam the Record Man on Yonge Street. The song tells the story of a man whose life parallels that of Beach Boys member Brian Wilson, particularly during his time spent with psychologist Eugene Landy after Wilson was diagnosed with mental illness, and, more generically, with lyrics about suffering from comorbid mental illness and obesity. ==Alternative versions== Steven Page stated in the liner notes for ''Disc One: All Their Greatest Hits'' that the song has more "official" recordings than any other song in their repertoire, saying that there are at least five. The song was first recorded for the never-released 1990 BNL cassette, ''Barenaked Recess''. After Tyler Stewart joined the band in 1991 as a drummer, it was re-recorded for the band’s platinum-selling ''Yellow Tape'', in 1992 for ''Gordon'', in 1996 for the live album ''Rock Spectacle'', and again in 1997 for a version which was called "Brian Wilson 2000" and was released as a single. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brian Wilson (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
