"Do It Again"
I listened to the two-albums-on-one-CD re-issue of Friends and 20/20 this morning and noticed that, appropriate for the retrospective theme, the lyrics of "Do It Again" contain the titles of a couple previous Beach Boys songs: "California Girls" in the second verse ("With sun-tanned bodies and waves of sunshine / California girls and a beautiful coast line") and "Lonely Sea" in the bridge ("And with a girl the lonely sea looks good with moonlight").

"Lonely Sea"
In the line "It moves along from day to day" in "Lonely Sea," "along" is sung with a melisma (C Bb A), musically giving something of a sense of movement.
