"Do Information technology Over again" is a song by the American stone band the Beach Boys that was released as unmarried on July 8, 1968.[3] [4] Information technology was written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love as a self-conscious callback to the group's earlier surf image, which they had not embraced since 1964. Honey and Wilson also share the atomic number 82 vocal on the song.
The vocal was issued just two weeks afterward the release of the band'due south anthology Friends, with the album track "Wake the World" as its B-side. It reached number 20 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and became their second number one hit in the U.k.. A slightly edited version of the song, using an excerpt from the Smile outtake "Workshop", subsequently appeared every bit the opening track on the Beach Boys' 1969 album xx/20.
"Do It Once again" has been rerecorded in one case by the ring (in 2011), once by Wilson equally a solo creative person (in 1995), and twice by Love as a solo artist (in 1996 and 2017). The vocal was an influence on Neil Sedaka'southward "Dearest Volition Go along Us Together" (1973), Eric Carmen'due south "She Did It" (1977), ABBA's "On and on and On" (1980), and Hall & Oates' "Did It in a Minute" (1982).
Background and recording [edit]
"Practice It Again" is a cocky-conscious callback to the band'due south earlier surf-based fabric. Originally titled "Rendezvous", the lyrics to the song were inspired after a day Mike Love had spent at the embankment in which he had gone surfing with an old friend named Beak Jackson.[v] Mike then showed the lyrics to his cousin Brian Wilson, who proceeded to write the music to Mike's lyrics of nostalgia. Brian stated that he believes the song was the best collaboration that he and Mike ever worked on.[5] Love commented, "He remembers it being at my firm. I recollect it as being at his business firm. He starts pounding at the piano, I was summoning upwardly the words and nosotros got a chorus together, which was basically a bunch of doo-wop inspired harmonies. We created that whole song in fifteen minutes."[half-dozen] 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 it has got the old Beach Boys surfing audio. Information technology's back to that surfing idea with the phonation harmony and the uncomplicated, direct melody and lyrics. Nosotros didn't plan the record as a return to the surf or anything. We just did it 1 twenty-four hour period circular a piano in the studio. Brian had the thought and played it over to the states. We improved on that and recorded it very quickly, in well-nigh 5 minutes. It'south certainly not an onetime track of ours; in fact information technology was recorded just a few weeks earlier information technology was released. Nosotros liked how it turned out and decided to release information technology.[5]
Conversely, Bruce Johnston told a reporter in September 1968 that he shared the reporter'southward underwhelming opinion of the song. "I don't like it etiher. I don't think that the group were entirely happy with information technology, just everyone else was going back to basics, and then I suppose it was inevitable that we should."[eight]
During the mixdown, engineer Stephen Desper came up with the pulsate issue heard at the commencement of the runway. He explained that he had "commissioned Philips, in Holland, to build two record filibuster units for employ on the road (to double live vocals). [he] moved four of the Philips Atomic number 82 heads very close together and then that one drum strike was repeated four times near 10 milliseconds autonomously, and blended it with the original to give the effect you hear."[ commendation needed ].
Promotional motion-picture show [edit]
A promotional motion picture, directed by Peter Clifton, was shot in Los Angeles. The film, shot in colour, features the group pulling up in a van and visiting a surfing shop. The band then drives to the beach in their van and begins surfing. The starting time screenings of the promotional motion-picture show were shown on BBC One's Tiptop of the Pops during broadcasts of the evidence on August 8, 22 and 29. In Germany the promotional moving-picture show was shown in September during broadcasts of the Hits A Go Go show on ZDF Television receiver. The clip was after featured in the 1969 Peter Clifton Australian surfing film Fluid Journey.[4] An alternate promotional motion picture for "Do It Once more" was planned with the idea to feature special invitee, Beatles member Paul McCartney as a clerk. However the idea was abandoned due to his busy schedule.[ix]
Release [edit]

It showed how many fans we had there and how attractive the whole California lifestyle is." When Friends was issued in Japan, "Do Information technology Once more" was included in its rails list.[10] In Britain's Disc & Music Repeat, Penny Valentine praised the single:
This is a vast comeback on The Beach Boys' concluding single, and thank goodness for it. It sounds like bees bustling on a summertime cakewalk and is so completely solid; at that place isn't room for a fly to creep in. Information technology goes on very gently and easily and is very, very pleasant. In a manner information technology reminds me of ane of the tracks off Pet Sounds, which is nice to say the least, and a hit it volition most certainly be. I tin imagine a few people will exist muttering, "Well, she said they were finished," just I didn't. I said they should get dorsum to their competent, commercial sound and they have. So there.[four]
"Do It Again" remained at the meridian position for only one calendar week, later on which information technology was supplanted by the Bee Gees' "I've Gotta Become a Message to You".[3]

Neil Sedaka borrowed the principal riff from "Exercise It Over again" for his own song "Love Will Keep Us Together," a hitting for the Captain and Tennille.[11]
