"Exercise Information technology Again" is a vocal by the American rock band the Beach Boys that was released every bit unmarried on July 8, 1968.[three] [4] It was written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love as a self-witting callback to the grouping's earlier surf image, which they had not embraced since 1964. Love and Wilson also share the lead vocal on the vocal.

The song was issued but two weeks later the release of the ring's album Friends, with the album track "Wake the Earth" equally its B-side. Information technology reached number 20 on the U.Due south. Billboard Hot 100 and became their 2nd number 1 hitting in the U.k.. A slightly edited version of the song, using an excerpt from the Smiling outtake "Workshop", subsequently appeared as the opening track on the Embankment Boys' 1969 anthology twenty/20.

"Do It Again" has been rerecorded one time by the band (in 2011), once by Wilson as a solo artist (in 1995), and twice past Love as a solo artist (in 1996 and 2017). The song was an influence on Neil Sedaka's "Love Will Keep Us Together" (1973), Eric Carmen'southward "She Did It" (1977), ABBA's "On and on and On" (1980), and Hall & Oates' "Did Information technology in a Minute" (1982).

Groundwork and recording [edit]

"Exercise It Again" is a self-witting callback to the ring'due south earlier surf-based fabric. Originally titled "Rendezvous", the lyrics to the song were inspired after a mean solar day Mike Honey had spent at the embankment in which he had gone surfing with an old friend named Bill Jackson.[v] Mike and 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] Love commented, "He remembers it being at my firm. I recollect it every bit existence at his house. He starts pounding at the piano, I was summoning up the words and nosotros got a chorus together, which was basically a bunch of doo-wop inspired harmonies. We created that whole vocal in fifteen minutes."[six] Other inspiration came from Hank Ballard'southward & The Midnighters 1960 song "Finger Poppin' Time".[7] Carl Wilson recalled in Melody Maker:

Yes, I suppose information technology has got the old Beach Boys surfing sound. Information technology'southward back to that surfing idea with the voice harmony and the unproblematic, directly tune and lyrics. We didn't plan the record every bit a return to the surf or anything. We just did it one mean solar day circular a piano in the studio. Brian had the idea and played it over to the states. Nosotros improved on that and recorded it very quickly, in about five minutes. It's certainly non an old track of ours; in fact information technology was recorded only a few weeks before it was released. We liked how information technology turned out and decided to release information technology.[5]

Conversely, Bruce Johnston told a reporter in September 1968 that he shared the reporter's underwhelming opinion of the song. "I don't similar it etiher. I don't think that the group were entirely happy with information technology, but everyone else was going back to basics, then I suppose it was inevitable that nosotros should."[8]

During the mixdown, engineer Stephen Desper came up with the drum outcome heard at the beginning of the runway. He explained that he had "commissioned Philips, in Holland, to build two tape delay units for use on the road (to double live vocals). [he] moved four of the Philips PB heads very shut together then that i drum strike was repeated 4 times about 10 milliseconds apart, and blended it with the original to give the event you hear."[ citation needed ]. Drums were played by Dennis Wilson and session musician John Guerin; tambourine and wood blocks were likewise played by Guerin.[9] [10]

Promotional film [edit]

A promotional pic, directed by Peter Clifton, was shot in Los Angeles. The film, shot in color, features the group pulling upwardly in a van and visiting a surfing store. The band then drives to the beach in their van and begins surfing. The commencement screenings of the promotional film were shown on BBC I'southward Tiptop of the Pops during broadcasts of the testify on August 8, 22 and 29. In Germany the promotional pic was shown in September during broadcasts of the Hits A Go Become show on ZDF Idiot box. The prune was after featured in the 1969 Peter Clifton Australian surfing motion picture Fluid Journey.[iv] An alternate promotional moving-picture show for "Do It Once more" was planned with the thought to feature special guest, Beatles member Paul McCartney as a clerk. However the idea was abased due to his decorated schedule.[eleven]

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 It Once more" was included in its track list.[12] In Britain'southward Disc & Music Echo, Penny Valentine praised the unmarried:

This is a vast improvement on The Beach Boys' last single, and give thanks goodness for it. It sounds like bees humming on a summer cakewalk and is and then completely solid; in that location isn't room for a fly to creep in. Information technology 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 volition most certainly be. I can imagine a few people will exist muttering, "Well, she said they were finished," but I didn't. I said they should become back to their competent, commercial audio and they have. So there.[iv]

"Do It Again" remained at the tiptop position for but one calendar week, after which information technology was supplanted by the Bee Gees' "I've Gotta Become a Bulletin to You".[3]

Influence and utilize in media [edit]

Neil Sedaka borrowed the principal riff from "Practice It Again" for his own song "Love Volition Keep Us Together," a hit for the Captain and Tennille.[13]

Eric Carmen credited the "did-its" in this song with being the initial inspiration for his 1977 Top xl hit, "She Did It".[14] Bruce Johnston of the Beach Boys also participated in the production and vocals of Carmen'due south vocal. "Did It in a Minute", a 1982 striking by Hall & Oates, was in turn inspired by the 'did-its' in both songs.[xv] [16]

ABBA'due south "On and On and On" (1980) was besides influenced by "Practice It Again", and in response, Mike Love recorded a comprehend version of the ABBA song for his 1981 album Looking Back with Love.[17]
