The song’s early recording sessions were originally named “Let go of Your Ego”…However, Mike Love objected to the possible drug connotations of the title and certain lyrics: “I was aware that Brian was beginning to experiment with LSD and other psychedelics”, explained Love. “The prevailing drug jargon at the time had it that doses of LSD would shatter your ego, as if that were a positive thing… I wasn’t interested in taking acid or getting rid of my ego.” - Wikipedia.
