"Heroes and Villains" and "Good Vibrations" are being saved for a future poll. The rest of the Smile related tracks are in drastically different form here, so they'll remain.
Voting is open!

These songs, from three of my favorite, most listened to Beach Boys albums, will make my choices difficult. I could easily pick 20. 🤷‍♀️

Well, no surprise here -- most of my votes are from the Wild Honey album. I also voted for "Vegetables" and "Wake the World."

I love Wild Honey. It's one of those albums where every time you listen to it you think, "this is even better than I remembered!" Every time. And you remembered it as a favorite! I just never tire of it, I guess. It always sounds fresh.

OK, this actually wasn't too tough. My favorites, and how I'd rank them, just happen to be clearer for whatever reason. I ended up with 6 tracks from Wild Honey and 2 each from Smiley Smile and Friends.
1. Wild Honey 2. Let The Wind Blow 3. Little Bird 4. Aren't You Glad 5. Here Comes the Night 6. Darlin' 7. Little Pad 8. Anna Lee, The Healer 9. Country Air 10. With Me Tonight
Next up would probably be (in order) "Wind Chimes", "Wake the World", and "Friends".

Little Pad, With Me Tonight, Whistle In, Aren't You Glad, Let the Wind Blow, Wake the World, Passing By, Country Air, Darlin', Here Comes the Night. Very joyful music. It always feels like a warm summer night to me.

It's hard to rank these. I'm finding them similar in quality.
1. Darlin' 2. Let The Wind Blow 3. Wake The World 4. Busy Doin' Nothin' 5. Aren't You Glad 6. Here Comes The Night 7. With Me Tonight 8. Be Here In The Morning 9. I'd Love Just Once To See You 10. Transcendental Meditation
Almost Made It: 11. Be Still

Oh that was hard! So many good songs left off. Just had to go with my very favorites.
1. Darlin’ 2. Wake The World 3. Little Bird 4. I Was Made To Love Her 5. Let The Wind Blow 6. Be Here In The Morning 7. Wind Chimes 8. Friends 9. Aren’t You Glad 10. Country Air
I like “Wild Honey”, but prefer Blondie’s vocal. “Busy Doin’ Nothin’” is a great song and came in at #11. “Wonderful” is so much better on Smile. For some reason I prefer Disco “Here Comes The Night”, but I like the Wild Honey version as well. Like I said - I could easily voted for 20 songs here.

I wound up with an even split between Wild Honey and Friends.
Aren't You Glad I Was Made to Love Her Country Air Darlin' Let the Wind Blow
Meant for You Friends Wake the World Little Bird Be Still
I considered the title track to WH, but I'm really not too wild about the studio version.

Your list is very similar to mine! Glad to see someone pick “Meant for You” and “Be Still”, even if I didn’t, because they really add to the chill vibe of Friends.

I didn’t, but it’s probably because I can’t stop singing the chorus after I listen to it. The first time I heard it I thought it was the stupidest song I had ever heard, then my Step Son had his son and all of the sudden it seemed to make sense.

I agree on Meant for You and Be Still. I'm a little surprised I was the first to pick the title track from Friends. I would've thought the harmonies alone would've gotten it a vote or two.
