RP has only two Weezer songs? Somebody's gotta upload more!

 

well, I just checked...a lot of uploaded weezer songs didn't make it in the rp library, because they got rejected. I don't know if they got rejected because of a poor bitrate / wrong encoding etc. or because of the songs themselves?

i'd love to hear "say it ain't so". i remember spending a complete day with this song on "single repeat" ;o) but maybe other weezer songs aren't "even-tempered" enough for RP?

Someone could try and upload "My Name is Jonas" - that song hasn't been uploaded (and rejected) so far...as far as I can see...

Damn people.  This is a very good point.  In the Garage, Say it ain't so, My name is Jonas, Pink Triangles, El Scorcho are all very worthy.  How do other people sample stuff at the right bitrate to submit it?
 

Yes.  5 awesome songs noted by Sloggydog.  Come on you uploaders.....

Need more Weezer on RP — They are one of the most important bands of the 90s.  Love this song, this album, the Blue Album and Pinkerton.

This song is awesome.  Although, there was some of this album I was a bit chagrin to be exposing to a minivan full of kids.

Its an Empire 698 Turntable I bought new back in '77 and the receiver is a Sony STR-7055 I bought new a few years before that. This is my home "office" system.

just saw a Weezer concert in Japan on Paladia - pretty entertaining - especially this and the last song when they have this giggly young lady come out of the crowd and play guitar with them - it must have been a set up, but she sure looked blown away to be up there with them.  A fun concert to watch.

Heresy, maybe - but I think I agree with lemmoth. Maybe not this particular track, and certainly not when compared to the whole body of work, but there are times...

It's probably good that you're "inclined to agree" with your own conclusion.  I like the contradictory wordplay: "grown two sizes too small" and "aggressively lame" - good stuff.  I could see why some people wouldn't care for this tune; it's kind of silly, but I don't think it means that your heart has gotten smaller.
