Its strange to see this very pretty lady from such long way back still up there after all this time performing that great song, now in advanced age - but her spirit shines through and she is enjoying herself - may she continue to live well in these golden years. This era was something special, it brings back such vivid memories of growing up, these songs stay with you forever!

Michelle Phillips said she wrote some of the lyrics for this song, including the part about the visit to the church. Interestingly, the Beach Boys sing the lyrics the way they are commonly presented: "I pretend to pray." However, Michelle sings them the way she says she wrote them: "I began to pray."
For decades I thought they were singing "I began to pray," but recently I hear I pretend to pray which never made sense. Why would you write it that way, who would stop in a church and pretend to pray, except to impress the priest or someone with you?

@@allphase If I'm the person telling the story I am thinking of California because I hate the cold and the fact that the preacher likes the cold is not likely to influence me to stay. If I have any kind of hope that there is a God I stop at the church to pray sincerely and presumably I am acquainted with the preacher and want to hear his opinion.
Great Sound! It would make sense the Beach Boys would do a version of "California Dreaming. It just seems like it could be a song of theirs. It is great to see Mike Love doing well. He always seemed the healthiest of the group.
@Estaban B - Yes (Bruce is there, too). He's owned the name for touring only since 1998, which was agreed upon by Al Jardine, Brian Wilson and the estate of Carl Wilson. He can record under the name The Beach Boys but only if Brian Wilson is involved. You probably know all this anyway.
I do like the cover from the 80's, but the current line-up of The Beach Boys sucks without Brian. Your better off seeing Brian's band with Al Jardine in it than seeing the Beach Boys. I saw both bands last year and Brian's band blew Love's out of the water.
hardly The Beach Boys; what a joke…odd that Brian, Mike, Al, David Marks, & Bruce Johnston can’t reunite for a valid Beach Boys lineup; maybe Ringo would play drums
+Artsy H. You couldn't be doing her a greater injustice if you tried with such an insensitive, not to mention grossly inaccurate comment. Her voice balanced Cass's and controlled it. It added high range harmonies not any of them could hit and gave songs like Monday Monday and Dedicated to The One I Love their finishing touches. The only time her mic was fucked up was at the Monterey Festival which is sadly their only recorded live concert and by all of their admission, their worst. Do yourself a favour and explore the band's later material if you really want to appreciate her voice and what a hugely important contribution it was to the group.
Love is the only one of the BB's....the rest are his current collection of musicians. Love still plays the tambourine. Noticed he still likes to hear himself talk...and talk. And, by the way, Love and his band destroyed 'California Dreaming'. Needed a Brian Wilson arrangement. Would have thought Brian still owned the name and rights....but guess not. Anyway...great to see Michelle. And Brian's daughters and Michelle's daughter are 'Wilson Phillips'.
She is still so sexy and magnetic, gosh so many memories of the crazy 60's, Michelle yoiu were and still are awesome and beautiful, and so were the Band. RIP< John, Cass, And Denny
Michelle wrote the lyrics about the church and the priest and the kneeling on the his knees, Papa John hated the church lyrics but it was an instant success, the flute solo was never rehearsed, a total improvisation and the flutist nailed it. Barry McGuire's version of this song and his harmonica solo a complete disaster, but thanks to Barry this song became an instant success.
John Cowsill is singing Lead doesnt show John in video He's Playing his Drums & Singing He does With the Beach Boys too he is Thier Drummer & few other Thier Songs Singing Lead & playing his Drums Listen again you will hear John Cowsill Michelle Phillips can't hear her in just the few lines she sings
+Karen Reuter The more legendary a group is, the less of them you need to call yourself by that name. But I doubt if that notion would hold up in court.
I am saddened that Michelle came on stage with these stooges, it’s the worst version of this song I’ve heard thanks to the male singers. And please stop referring to Mike Love and his garage-band backups as “the Beach Boys”
Absolutely. Michelle´s vocals are barely audible in this clip anyway. The female vocal could have been anyone for that matter. Otherwise, a poor version. The Beach Boys do their routine well, but sound nothing like The Mamas & The Papas, whose legacy in music is intact, unlike the undignified cash-in tours of the Beach Boys in recent years.

Holy crap - you can actually hear Michelle singing!

Yes, it was always Mama Cass you heard.
I love this The Beach Boys and The Mamas and The Papas Forever
Michelle Phillips must've been quite a nice surprise for the crowd. The sole surviving member of the great Mamas and the Papas.
sad

so cool. thanks for sharing.
Que bella mujer Michelle 💚💚💚💚
As I understand it, John was stumped on the ending and Michele came up with "If I didn't tell her, I could leave today"
Steve Chapman ..in interviews she has said she wrote the second verse.
looks like michelle was really into it,that was great
She prolly sang it thousands of times 😊 not so much with out cass
Great Sound! It would make sense the Beach Boys would do a version of "California Dreaming. It just seems like it could be a song of theirs. It is great to see Mike Love doing well. He always seemed the healthiest of the group.
私も昔カリフォルニアに住んでいたこともあり、この歌〽️もアメリカに住んでいた時、今も聞いています。皆さんに面白い話しますが、ＬＡとかに行きますと、また違う魅力が感じますし、女性や人達も他のアメリカ人地域に住んでいる人と違って、独特の個性のようなものをもっていますが、その反面嫌な話になりますが、犯罪も多くてタフな気持ち持たないと住むことが出来ない都市でもあります。私は別の場所で車で2時間かかる場所に住んでいて、よくサンタ🎅モニカビーチとかチャイニーズ・シアター・ビバリーヒルズ、ウェスト・ウッド、リトル東京とロスの名所と言われているところ何回も行きました。しかし他のカリフォルニアに比べ、🎅最初にLＡ

is it really The Beach Boys ?, I see Mike love but I don't recognize the other musicians
2 of the original 6, Bruce Johnston took Brians place on the road. Still Ain't the same without a real Wilson, Not Cousin mike!
Mike’s boy Christian Love sings the second part
@@davehollamon1985 Only one original here: Mike. Bruce didn’t join until 4 years after their first album.

You probably know all this anyway.
1:11 is when the song starts
I think California Dreami n should replace the Stars n Stripes as the National anthem
This band should be called Wilson Phillips
lol 😂
thank god for young musicians who know how to play and sing your songs long after you've forgotten them
🥺🥺💗
I just wish the right channel audio didn't keep cutting out.

Thanks never kne the connection of Wilson and Phillips ???
ua-cam.com/video/EOFnrB9Sv-I/v-deo.html
the music is too loud and the voice is too tiny i cant hear anything
Iriina Zoueva turn up your hearing aid
sound is dropping in and out through the song.
We've yet to hear Michelle Phillips' voice (solo) live. (sigh)...She's holding the mic a foot away from her mouth here.
Noticed that too. I wish we could have heard her better
Que lastima 😢,que música!

That was fucking atrocious.
They were like 70 I dunno why loads of people was expecting it to be good
OMG. Why did Michelle let herself gain all that weight !!
it,s hard to belive that she was the best looking woman on earth
Michelle Phillips and Mike's cover band. There is no such thing as The Beach Boys without the Wilson brothers!
ok
Amen!!!
Love is the only one of the BB's....the rest are his current collection of musicians. Love still plays the tambourine. Noticed he still likes to hear himself talk...and talk.

My guess is, this was one of best days of her life. God Bless you Michelle !!
ua-cam.com/video/EOFnrB9Sv-I/v-deo.html
I celebrate the survivors; I lament the loss of the departed. But their beautiful music adorns BOTH worlds.
This version by Mike Love's Beach Boys' tribute band doesn't touch the version the Beach Boys recorded in the 80s.
Didn't really like the Boys singing it,plus my left ear hurt..but Michelle is still beautiful
Good version, the best I have heard since the original. Michelle Phillips sounds good.❤
ua-cam.com/video/EOFnrB9Sv-I/v-deo.html
Great song, love Michelle, crappy arrangement by the "Beach Boys."
Michele looks great here at 68!!
Yes!!!
she really is beautiful, her daughter seems to adore her.
How magnificent was that !!!!!
Quelle femme fantastique, je l'adore, longue vie Michelle!
nice to see michelle still has the same mic phobia she had in the 60's :P thats ALONG time michelle
She can't sing is why she has mic phobia!
Love michelle!!❤❤👏👏👏

exuse me but since when is mike love the beach boys?

+Karen Reuter The more legendary a group is, the less of them you need to call yourself by that name. But I doubt if that notion would hold up in court.
+ggjohnson THe name is owned by 4 people all offically beachboys.Brian being one of them.
since Mike sued couson Brian, & Brian said take the name!
Karen Reuter Bruce is there too

The 1960s wouldn't be the 60s if The Beach Boys and the Mamas and the Papas never came along.

Very nice John Cowsil is good on Al Jardines vocals and Christian Love is good on Carl’s vocals.
It's amazing how that wouldn't work without Michelle Phillips. ❤
Not a good audio recording, but loved to hear it all the same.
