I wish this could get easier
My creative flow comes naturally
But I can't make it flow consistently
Can’t force anything out of me
Watching others grow bigger
How do they post consecutively
I prefer quality over quantity
People who can do both amaze me
Being consistent is the goal I’m trying to reach
They is no magic formula for creativity
This gonna take the fun out of me
Sometimes I forget why I create all this
The vision was much bigger than me
I provide words that someone needs
Just trying to inspire all the people I reach
I would always choose creativity over consistently

"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

I agree with you on creativity over consistency. When I started I was just writing for the sake of writing, because I love to write. Of course I have many (0) reads from then. But that is ok. I was doing me during Corona. It kept me sane. But I read other people's stories and built up a conversation with a few people. Then I took stock and channeled my mind to a higher plane of thinking. So I just wrote from my heart instead of my head. I got better. I encouraged people in their choices and those people have remained my Vocal friends, I think of them as my children. Sometimes I write so many pieces I have to space them over different days. You have to listen to your heart. Sometimes what you think is consistency may turn out to be what people actually prefer to read. So again, listen to your heart and write to your heart's content. You never know when a few gems may surprise you.
