God Only Knows - remake by BBC Music

God Only Knows by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys - featuring Brian Wilson, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Dave Grohl, Lorde, Pharrell and Brian May. This is beautiful. Even has a lady playing a tiny Bach trumpet. If it sounds familiar, it's the same kind of trumpet that was used for the solo in "Penny Lane".

This was posted yesterday, the 7th, and now has over 2 million views.

Daily Mail article with pictures. Brian May looks sharp in a white waistcoat with black shirt and black jacket. Even looks like he brushed his hair (((snicker))):

Always kind of bugs me that Wilson, who wrote great music, is always credited alone when the truth is he seldom wrote the lyrics.
