''Gettin' In Over My Head'' is an album by American artist Music/BrianWilson. It was his first album in six years after 1998's {{Music/Imagination}}.
This album is a compromise for people who were already in the knew about projects such as ''Music/SweetInsanity'' and ''Music/ThePaleySessions'' (the first one being a recorded album which didn't get released and the second one being a large amount of recorded songs for a Brian Wilson/[[Music/TheBeachBoys Beach Boys]] album which didn't come to fruition. It includes rerecorded songs from those projects (as well as songs which were recorded in the early eighties, including the ''Cocaine Sessions'' he made with Music/DennisWilson) and one new song featuring Music/PaulMcCartney. Other guests include Music/EltonJohn and Music/EricClapton. This is the first album Brian recorded with a new lineup (notably consisting of The Wondermints, a power-pop deeply inspired by Brian's work) which would stay on over his following albums.
Reception to the album was mixed whether it came from critics or fans of the original bootlegged recordings.

--> ''Then a dragon came, cast a spell on you''
--> ''Stole your heart away''
* DesignStudentsOrgasm: The cover art is designed by Peter Blake (of ''Music/SergeantPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand'' fame) and has that same concept of putting the artist in a complex setting.

* KnightInShiningArmor: "Fairy Tale".
--> ''This knight in shining armour's gonna set you free''

* SpecialGuest: Elton John sings with Brian on "How Could We Still Be Dancin'" and Eric Clapton plays guitar on "City Blues".
** Paul McCartney sings on "A Friend Like You", however this isn't the first time a Beach Boy collaborated with a Beatle (Ringo Starr played drums on The Beach Boys' [[Music/TheBeachBoys1985Album self-titled album]]).
