it's doctor landy. he did the experiment with the dog to see if the dog
would salivate with just the prompting of a bell after the bell and food
had repeatedly been associated with each other in front of the dog.
hmm, that made no sense; anyway, hence "ring a bell and i'll salivate
how'd you like that? / doctor landy, tell me you're not just a
pedagogue"

It's Dr. Landy. He's Brian Wilson's former psychiatrist.

Pavlov did the expirment with the dog, Dr. Landy was Brian Wilsons
doctor and the guy that took over and kept Brian away from his family
and friends.

Elizabeth, that's Pavlov. Landy was (is?) a psychiatrist.

ROTFL.

I knew that was wrong. I'm on school vacation and my brain hasn't been
in thinking mode for quite some time; and just after I replied to your
post about the idiots!

Oh boy..

Eugene Landy was Wilson's pyschiatrist (some have argued brainwasher)
and sometimes producer...

Speaking of BW lyrics, I've seen 2 bands cover BW and say "Tell me this is not
just a creative DOUBT". I questioned both bands afterwards and found combined,
they all only had stunt and RS, with only one guy even hearing of gordon.....I
think we she lay the smack down my friends.

Nope - the dog bloke was Dr. Pavlov. But apart from that,
all correct. :-)

Almost, but the dog doctor ws Pavlov. Landy was Brian Wilson's
infamous shrink. He practically held Wislon captive and took
total control of him.. as well as making him hand over huge
amounts of money so that he could continue Wilson's 'treatment'

have a look at:

Straight from Webster's...

a teacher, especially a pedantic one.

And if you don't know what "pedantic" means (I didn't either, when I first
looked this up)...

making a vain and pretentious show of learning

So in other words, a pedagogue is a teacher, especially one who's a
show-off. Yay.

It's Dr. Landers......He was the real Brian Wilson's therapist or
teacher of some sort, I believe.

Ann Landers? No wonder Brian Wilson was so messed up.

Actually I heard it really was Dr. Landy. At least my sister's husband said
that he had studied him once for psychology. I figured that he wouldve studied
Pavlov but he said Landy. And he said they (the class) mentioned that he was
the one who helped B Wilson. He didn't say Landers but Landy like the song
says. So now I'm just confused.

People, it's Landy. Eugene Landy. Now you can all sleep better.

Sheesh.

It *was* Landy. I was just making a joke.... obviously it didn't come off
very well.

Actually, you might both be wrong. I don't know much about the real Brian
Wilson, but the lyrics for the song say:

"Dr. Landy tell me you're not just a pedogoguge"

That's what it says in Gordon. :)
