The philosopher Michel Foucault wrote in praise of curiosity, calling for "a readiness to find strange and singular what surrounds us; a certain relentlessness to break up our familiarities...; a fervor to grasp what is happening and what passes; a casualness in regard to the traditional hierarchies of the important and the essential."

Interview: Taylor Mills of the Brian Wilson Band :

Wow. The Brian Wilson thing was just so... wonderful. How lucky you are to be a part of such a great guy that made some really good music that got into your bones. Fun great music, that well was unbelivable against the other music at the time. His music was honest and heart felt. You could hum a tune and get happy real fast. What more is there. rythims and beat that made a grey day really good. What a story you can share with your kids some day...

ALLMUSIC BLOG "As a thematic topic, 'That Lucky Old Sun' is ripe for integration into Brian Wilson’s California myth-making. A Tin Pan Alley chestnut from the ’40s, it contrasts the ease of the sun’s transit each day with the hardship of human toil on earth, a sort of 'Ol’ Man River' set in the sky."
