"Do Information technology Again" is a song by the American stone band the Beach Boys that was released every bit unmarried on July 8, 1968.[3] [4] Information technology was written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love every bit a self-witting callback to the group'south earlier surf image, which they had non embraced since 1964. Love and Wilson besides share the lead song on the song.
The song was issued merely two weeks after the release of the band's album Friends, with the album rail "Wake the World" as its B-side. Information technology reached number 20 on the U.Due south. Billboard Hot 100 and became their second number 1 striking in the UK. A slightly edited version of the vocal, using an excerpt from the Grinning outtake "Workshop", afterwards appeared as the opening track on the Beach Boys' 1969 album 20/20.
"Do It Once more" has been rerecorded once by the ring (in 2011), in one case by Wilson as a solo artist (in 1995), and twice by Dear as a solo artist (in 1996 and 2017). The song was an influence on Neil Sedaka's "Love Volition Go along Us Together" (1973), Eric Carmen's "She Did Information technology" (1977), ABBA's "On and on and On" (1980), and Hall & Oates' "Did Information technology in a Minute" (1982).
Groundwork and recording [edit]
"Do It Again" is a self-conscious callback to the band's before surf-based fabric. Originally titled "Rendezvous", the lyrics to the song were inspired after a day Mike Dear had spent at the beach in which he had gone surfing with an onetime friend named Beak Jackson.[5] Mike then showed the lyrics to his cousin Brian Wilson, who proceeded to write the music to Mike'due south lyrics of nostalgia. Brian stated that he believes the song was the best collaboration that he and Mike ever worked on.[v] Love commented, "He remembers it being at my house. I retrieve it as beingness at his house. He starts pounding at the piano, I was summoning up the words and we got a chorus together, which was basically a bunch of doo-wop inspired harmonies. We created that whole song in xv minutes."[6] Other inspiration came from Hank Ballard's & The Midnighters 1960 song "Finger Poppin' Fourth dimension".[7] Carl Wilson recalled in Melody Maker:
Yes, I suppose information technology has got the sometime Beach Boys surfing audio. Information technology'south back to that surfing idea with the voice harmony and the uncomplicated, direct tune and lyrics. Nosotros didn't plan the record as a render to the surf or anything. Nosotros just did it ane day circular a piano in the studio. Brian had the idea and played information technology over to us. We improved on that and recorded it very rapidly, in about five minutes. It'south certainly non an old track of ours; in fact it was recorded merely a few weeks before information technology was released. Nosotros liked how it turned out and decided to release it.[5]
Conversely, Bruce Johnston told a reporter in September 1968 that he shared the reporter'due south underwhelming stance of the song. "I don't like it etiher. I don't think that the group were entirely happy with it, but everyone else was going back to basics, so I suppose it was inevitable that we should."[8]
During the mixdown, engineer Stephen Desper came up with the drum effect heard at the beginning of the rails. He explained that he had "commissioned Philips, in Kingdom of the netherlands, to build 2 tape filibuster units for use on the route (to double alive vocals). [he] moved 4 of the Philips Lead heads very shut together so that one drum strike was repeated iv times about x milliseconds apart, and composite it with the original to requite the effect you hear."[ citation needed ].
Promotional motion picture [edit]
A promotional film, directed by Peter Clifton, was shot in Los Angeles. The film, shot in color, features the group pulling up in a van and visiting a surfing store. The band then drives to the beach in their van and begins surfing. The first screenings of the promotional film were shown on BBC Ane's Top of the Pops during broadcasts of the show on Baronial 8, 22 and 29. In Germany the promotional moving picture was shown in September during broadcasts of the Hits A Go Go show on ZDF Telly. The clip was subsequently featured in the 1969 Peter Clifton Australian surfing picture Fluid Journey.[iv] An alternate promotional pic for "Do It Once more" was planned with the idea to characteristic special invitee, Beatles member Paul McCartney as a clerk. However the idea was abased due to his busy schedule.[9]
Release [edit]
Released on July 19, 1968 in the United Kingdom the unmarried, forty days after its release, peaked at No. ane on the UK Singles Nautical chart on Baronial 28, 1968, and thus becoming the band's 2d number one striking in the United Kingdom after "Good Vibrations" two years earlier.[3] Love remembered thinking that the song'southward success in Britain "was unbelievable. It showed how many fans we had there and how attractive the whole California lifestyle is." When Friends was issued in Nippon, "Do It Again" was included in its track listing.[10] In Great britain's Disc & Music Echo, Penny Valentine praised the single:
This is a vast improvement on The Embankment Boys' final single, and thank goodness for information technology. Information technology sounds similar bees humming on a summer breeze and is so completely solid; at that place isn't room for a wing to pitter-patter in. It goes on very gently and easily and is very, very pleasant. In a way information technology reminds me of ane of the tracks off Pet Sounds, which is squeamish to say the least, and a hit it will most certainly exist. I can imagine a few people will be muttering, "Well, she said they were finished," but I didn't. I said they should get dorsum to their competent, commercial sound and they have. So in that location.[four]
"Do It Again" remained at the height position for only one week, subsequently which information technology was supplanted by the Bee Gees' "I've Gotta Get a Message to Y'all".[3]
Influence and use in media [edit]
Neil Sedaka borrowed the chief riff from "Do It Again" for his ain song "Love Will Keep United states Together," a hit for the Captain and Tennille.[11]
Eric Carmen credited the "did-its" in this song with being the initial inspiration for his 1977 Top 40 hit, "She Did It".[12] Bruce Johnston of the Beach Boys also participated in the production and vocals of Carmen's song. "Did It in a Minute", a 1982 striking by Hall & Oates, was in plough inspired by the 'did-its' in both songs.[13] [xiv]
ABBA's "On and On and On" (1980) was besides influenced by "Do Information technology Over again", and in response, Mike Love recorded a cover version of the ABBA song for his 1981 album Looking Dorsum with Love.[15]
The opening drum line of "Do Information technology Again" was sampled for "Retrieve" by French electronic duo Air on their album Moon Safari (1997).[16]
