Beach Boys - I can hear music 1969 (a new upload in better quality) Original by the Ronettes 1966. This is a cover by the The Beach Boys. They released it on their 1969 album 20/20 with Carl Wilson on lead vocals, and was their first single released in stereo. With Brian Wilson losing more and more interest in producing for the Beach Boys, younger brother Carl "stepped in" as the role of producer and lead Beach Boy. This song is considered by many as Carl Wilson's first taste at being the "leader" of the group. The song is also notable for being the first Beach Boys song that Brian did not sing on. 'I can hear music' reached #24 in US and #10 in UK. Ahhhhhh oooooo This is the way I always dreamed it would be The way that it is, oh oh When you are holding me I never had a love of my own Maybe that's why when we're all alone I can hear music I can hear music The sound of the city baby seems to disappear I can hear music Sweet sweet music Whenever you touch me baby Whenever you're near Lovin' you It keeps me satisfied And I can't explain, oh no The way I'm feeling inside You look at me we kiss and then I close my eyes and here it comes again I can hear music I can hear music The sound of the city baby seems to disappear I can hear music Sweet sweet music Whenever you touch me baby Whenever you're near I hear the music all the time, yeah I hear the music, hold me tight now baby I hear the music all the time I hear the music I hear the music (baby) Ahhhhh I can hear music I can hear music The sound of the city baby seems to disappear I can hear music
