SMiLE- It's "Wonderful"

There have not been that many albums released in 2004 that I've enjoyed, to be quite honest there have only really been 3; "You Are The Quarry" by Morrissey, "Franz Ferdinand" by Franz Ferdinand & the work of art that is Brian Wilson's "SMiLE".
The Reason this is my favourite album of 2004, and quite possibly ever, is that it has such an interesting history of being aborted and restarted so many times.
I'm only 13 so I didn't have to wait for this album for a very long time but I've read about it's history and it's quite remarkable.
I think that this album is a timeless classic and has anyone really been able to match the brilliance of "Surf's Up", "Good Vibrations" and "Wonderful"?
I love this album and predict I'll be listening to it for years to come. Brian Wilson is simply a genius.
This is Rockgenius, signing off for another day.
