"I'm Waiting for the Day" is a song by the American rock band The Beach Boys, taken from their 1966 album ''Pet Sounds''. It is the fifth track on the album. The song was written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love with Brian also acting as producer of the song. It was copyrighted in February 1964, indicating that the song's composition predated the album's sessions by some years.〔 ==Background and recording== When asked about "I'm Waiting for the Day," Brian Wilson said that "there really was no specific inspiration for () song."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.brianwilson.com/news/2014/1/29/brian-answers-fans-questions-in-live-qa )〕 The instrumental track (including string overdubs) was recorded on March 6, 1966 at United Western Recorders. Vocal overdubs finished the track on March 10, 1966 at CBS Columbia Square. The track, a vocals only mix, and highlights from the tracking session can be found on ''The Pet Sounds Sessions'' boxset, released in 1997. Carl Wilson has stated he loved the dynamics, saying, "The intro is very big, then it gets quite small with the vocal in the verse with a little instrumentation and then, in the chorus, it gets very big again, with the background harmonies against the lead. It is perhaps one of the most dynamic moments in the album."〔Jim Fusilli, Pet Sounds,(Continuum International Publishing Group 2005), ISBN 0-8264-1670-5, p.92.〕 The lead vocal was sung by Brian Wilson who thought his performance was inadequate, explaining, "Vocally, I thought I sounded a little bit weird in my head. That's the one cut off the album I didn't really like that much. But, you know, it's okay, it's not a case of liking or not liking it; it was an appropriate song, a very, very positive song. I just didn't like my voice on that particular song."〔〔''The Pet Sounds Sessions: "The Making Of Pet Sounds"'' booklet (1996)〕 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「I'm Waiting for the Day」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
