Sherry She Needs Me
Song written by Brian Wilson and Russ Titelman
"Sherry She Needs Me" (also known as "Sandy" or "Sandy She Needs Me") is a song written in 1965 by Brian Wilson and Russ Titelman for the American rock band the Beach Boys. The recording was not released until decades later. As a solo artist in 1998, Wilson completed the song with lyric changes by Carole Bayer Sager; it was renamed "She Says That She Needs Me" and released on his album Imagination.
A tender and poignant love ballad, AllMusic cited "She Says That She Needs Me" as one of the finest tracks on Imagination, writing: "this song captures Wilson's unique and heartfelt balladeer style with extreme effectiveness. The melody is one of Wilson's most beautiful, and this arrangement (loaded with tasteful yet dramatic horns and strings) clearly bears this out. A dramatic, minor-key bridge only adds to the lushness. Lyrically, it's also a great example of Wilson's literate, artless style."[1]
