Brian Wilson - A Friend Like You

In 2004 Brian Wilson -- of Beach Boys fame -- released a solo album titled Smile that was met with critical acclaim. This song is from another, lesser-known solo album Wilson released in 2004 called Gettin' In Over My Head. The album features Elton John, Paul McCartney and Eric Clapton (Paul McCartney specifically on this track). This is yet another song that I thank internet radio for showing me. A fun song that offers tribute to that true friend in our lives for whom we are just so thankful. It's sentimental, sure. And I cannot imagine actually playing it for my friends, but if you read this you can take it as an indication that this song says some of how I feel about having you around.
