sgoodcore Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 suzanne = best weezer song ever? there's none better that i've heard. though i would consider that weezer's more poppy side. its hard to compare suzanne to tired of sex or pink triangle.

hootenanny Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 tired of sex is the best. still think its cool the whole rivers was getting one of his legs stretched out during the blue ablum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I think "No One Else" and "No Other One" are probably the two most perfect Weezer songs in terms of accurate representation of their sound and skills. They're not my personal favorites, but I think those songs sum up the band (pre-Green Album) musically and lyrically rather perfectly.

jhulud Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 My brother just got me this week the Deluxe Edition of 'Weezer' (blue) with the extra disc with live and demo tracks...it is so damn good... I can't wait to hear this compilation. Thanks for the info Kirby and Scott! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadetapplesauce Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 oh and has anyone else noticed that the green b-side "Always" sounds SO FUCKING MUCH like "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 oh and has anyone else noticed that the green b-side "Always" sounds SO FUCKING MUCH like "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles? TOTALLY. It's basically "Here Comes The Sun" + KISS's "Beth." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbypuckett Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'm still wetting myself over this news. If "Blast Off!" is on here I'll be finished listening to music, because it will have peaked for me. What's everyone's favorite b-sides? I'm think I'm going to go with "Devotion," maybe. Also, most of the b-sides from Green are really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest scriptedrain Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 When I think of Weezer b-sides, I think of "Suzanne" because of Mallrats. - Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadetapplesauce Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 when i think of Suzanne, i think of Midtown cuz they covered it or about how Mallrats made the song about a chimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
