He reminisces about their friendly rivalry during their careers, referencing how each artist pushed the other creatively. McCartney's reflections underscore the impact Wilson's innovations had on his own musical development.
It's one of the few songs that reduces me to tears every time I hear it. It's really just a love song, but it's brilliantly done.
Brian Wilson sort of proved himself to be a really amazing composer. It's nice - it's like me and John. You know, you kind of try and top each other all the time.
