The song evolved from "Love to Say Dada", an unfinished composition from the band's cancelled Smile album. Earlier versions of "Cool, Cool Water" were recorded during sessions for the 1967 albums Smiley Smile and Wild Honey. At the insistence of A&R man Lenny Waronker, the song was completed for Sunflower, with Moog synthesizer contributions from Beaver & Krause.
Brian Wilson described "Cool, Cool Water" as "one of my very, very favorite songs that we ever did."[3]
