"Do It Over again" is a song by the American rock band the Beach Boys that was released as single on July 8, 1968.[3] [4] Information technology was written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love as a self-conscious callback to the group'southward earlier surf image, which they had non embraced since 1964. Love and Wilson as well share the lead vocal on the song.

The song was issued only ii weeks after the release of the band's album Friends, with the anthology runway "Wake the World" equally its B-side. It reached number 20 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and became their second number 1 hit in the UK. A slightly edited version of the song, using an excerpt from the Grinning outtake "Workshop", subsequently appeared every bit the opening track on the Embankment Boys' 1969 album xx/20.

"Practice It Again" has been rerecorded once by the band (in 2011), once by Wilson as a solo artist (in 1995), and twice by Love as a solo creative person (in 1996 and 2017). The song was an influence on Neil Sedaka'southward "Beloved Will Keep United states of america Together" (1973), Eric Carmen'due south "She Did It" (1977), ABBA'southward "On and on and On" (1980), and Hall & Oates' "Did It in a Minute" (1982).

Background and recording [edit]

"Practice It Again" is a self-conscious callback to the ring'due south earlier surf-based fabric. Originally titled "Rendezvous", the lyrics to the song were inspired afterwards a day Mike Love had spent at the beach in which he had gone surfing with an quondam friend named Beak Jackson.[five] Mike then showed the lyrics to his cousin Brian Wilson, who proceeded to write the music to Mike'south lyrics of nostalgia. Brian stated that he believes the song was the best collaboration that he and Mike ever worked on.[5] Beloved commented, "He remembers it beingness at my house. I recollect it as being at his house. He starts pounding at the piano, I was summoning upwards the words and we got a chorus together, which was basically a bunch of doo-wop inspired harmonies. We created that whole vocal in fifteen minutes."[vi] Other inspiration came from Hank Ballard'due south & The Midnighters 1960 song "Finger Poppin' Time".[7] Carl Wilson recalled in Melody Maker:

Yes, I suppose it has got the one-time Embankment Boys surfing sound. Information technology's back to that surfing idea with the voice harmony and the simple, directly tune and lyrics. We didn't plan the tape every bit a return to the surf or anything. We but did it one twenty-four hours round a piano in the studio. Brian had the idea and played it over to us. We improved on that and recorded it very quickly, in nigh five minutes. It'due south certainly not an sometime rails of ours; in fact it was recorded just a few weeks before it was released. We 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's underwhelming opinion of the vocal. "I don't like information technology etiher. I don't think that the group were entirely happy with it, only everyone else was going back to basics, so I suppose information technology was inevitable that we should."[8]

During the mixdown, engineer Stephen Desper came upwards with the pulsate effect heard at the beginning of the rail. He explained that he had "commissioned Philips, in Holland, to build 2 record filibuster units for employ on the road (to double live vocals). [he] moved iv of the Philips PB heads very close together so that one drum strike was repeated four times about 10 milliseconds apart, and blended information technology with the original to give the effect yous hear."[ citation needed ].

Promotional film [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 shop. The band then drives to the embankment in their van and begins surfing. The first screenings of the promotional film were shown on BBC One's Top of the Pops during broadcasts of the testify on August 8, 22 and 29. In Germany the promotional film was shown in September during broadcasts of the Hits A Go Go show on ZDF Television receiver. The clip was later featured in the 1969 Peter Clifton Australian surfing motion-picture show Fluid Journey.[iv] An alternate promotional film for "Do It Again" was planned with the idea to feature special guest, Beatles member Paul McCartney as a clerk. However the idea was abandoned due to his busy schedule.[9]

Release [edit]

Released on July 19, 1968 in the Uk the single, forty days afterward its release, peaked at No. 1 on the United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland Singles Chart on August 28, 1968, and thus condign the band'south second number ane hit in the United Kingdom afterwards "Good Vibrations" two years earlier.[three] Dearest remembered thinking that the song'south 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, "Practise It Again" was included in its track listing.[10] In U.k.'southward Disc & Music Repeat, Penny Valentine praised the single:

This is a vast comeback on The Beach Boys' last single, and thank goodness for it. It sounds like bees humming on a summer breeze and is so completely solid; there isn't room for a fly to creep in. It goes on very gently and easily and is very, very pleasant. In a way it reminds me of one of the tracks off Pet Sounds, which is nice to say the least, and a hit it will near certainly be. I can imagine a few people volition exist muttering, "Well, she said they were finished," but I didn't. I said they should get back to their competent, commercial sound and they take. So there.[4]

"Do It Once again" remained at the acme position for simply one week, after which it was supplanted by the Bee Gees' "I've Gotta Get a Message to You lot".[3]

Influence and use in media [edit]

Neil Sedaka borrowed the main riff from "Do It Again" for his own song "Love Will Go along The states Together," a striking for the Captain and Tennille.[11]

Eric Carmen credited the "did-its" in this song with existence the initial inspiration for his 1977 Top 40 hitting, "She Did It".[12] Bruce Johnston of the Beach Boys likewise participated in the product and vocals of Carmen's song. "Did It in a Minute", a 1982 hit by Hall & Oates, was in turn inspired by the 'did-its' in both songs.[xiii] [14]

ABBA's "On and On and On" (1980) was also influenced by "Do It Again", and in response, Mike Love recorded a embrace version of the ABBA song for his 1981 album Looking Dorsum with Dearest.[15]

The opening pulsate line of "Do It Once again" was sampled for "Call back" by French electronic duo Air on their album Moon Safari (1997).[16]
