Top Four 4: Worst Weezer Singles
00:00:00
◼
►
let me get up my notes here you have
00:00:02
◼
►
notes what yeah so I actually took notes
00:00:05
◼
►
for this one the top four worst Weezer
00:00:09
◼
►
singles and the reason why I decided to
00:00:13
◼
►
go at this I was a Weezer fan for most
00:00:17
◼
►
of my teenage years from roughly age
00:00:22
◼
►
what 12 yeah when it wouldn't bloom when
00:00:25
◼
►
they blew up and came out I was 12 so
00:00:28
◼
►
roughly from that point through you know
00:00:31
◼
►
most of college and then I kind of fell
00:00:34
◼
►
out a Weezer for a while because their
00:00:36
◼
►
albums I think they took a turn that was
00:00:38
◼
►
not aligned with good so yeah I didn't I
00:00:44
◼
►
didn't care for the much for a while and
00:00:46
◼
►
then they actually came out with what I
00:00:47
◼
►
consider a pretty good album last year
00:00:49
◼
►
after a string of other albums they they
00:00:54
◼
►
came out with a good one wants to hear
00:00:55
◼
►
and I like it a lot so I kind of got
00:00:57
◼
►
back into them and one thing I always
00:01:00
◼
►
thought about Weezer as as a Weezer nerd
00:01:02
◼
►
and we might want to mention that this
00:01:04
◼
►
is kind of how we met I was gonna say I
00:01:05
◼
►
was waiting for an in gonna I was gonna
00:01:07
◼
►
say that Weezer is special to both of us
00:01:09
◼
►
because we kind of met over a
00:01:11
◼
►
conversation about Weezer
00:01:13
◼
►
and it brought us together and it got me
00:01:17
◼
►
into Markos room and he burned a black
00:01:21
◼
►
black CDR yeah of all of his Weezer
00:01:25
◼
►
music and so we started talking about
00:01:27
◼
►
first it the icebreaker was I had an
00:01:30
◼
►
accent in the middle of nowhere
00:01:31
◼
►
Pennsylvania where we went to school and
00:01:33
◼
►
a New Yorker a New York accent so he was
00:01:36
◼
►
intrigued and mystified and then we
00:01:40
◼
►
started talking Weezer so it brought us
00:01:43
◼
►
together and I still have that disc to
00:01:44
◼
►
this day of course well it's like our
00:01:46
◼
►
very first little love note so the
00:01:49
◼
►
problem that we xur has always had for
00:01:51
◼
►
me was that they they always would
00:01:54
◼
►
release what I consider to be the worst
00:01:57
◼
►
song on the album or close to it as the
00:02:01
◼
►
radio single and especially like the the
00:02:03
◼
►
first single they would release off of
00:02:05
◼
►
many of their albums was just some
00:02:07
◼
►
terrible song and I'd be enough of a
00:02:10
◼
►
nerd that I would for many of the
00:02:12
◼
►
album's as they
00:02:13
◼
►
would come out like before they were out
00:02:15
◼
►
I would be I would be getting them off
00:02:16
◼
►
the internet you know getting advanced
00:02:18
◼
►
copies are here in previews so I would
00:02:20
◼
►
already know most of the songs in the
00:02:21
◼
►
album or all them both time they came
00:02:23
◼
►
out and then when I would hear what they
00:02:25
◼
►
picked is the single I'd be like what
00:02:26
◼
►
why that's the worst song that someone I
00:02:28
◼
►
skip every time why why would you do
00:02:30
◼
►
that it's so troll it's it's the
00:02:34
◼
►
original trolling it might be I don't
00:02:36
◼
►
know so that's that's certainly the best
00:02:38
◼
►
explanation well hey mr. deejay you
00:02:39
◼
►
should start playing one of our set one
00:02:41
◼
►
of the songs yes so just get him I'm
00:02:43
◼
►
gonna go in chronological order here I
00:02:44
◼
►
think what what gives Huizar the ability
00:02:47
◼
►
to have a top four worst Weezer singles
00:02:50
◼
►
episode made about them is just they
00:02:52
◼
►
have so many albums I think I have
00:02:54
◼
►
something like eight or nine albums here
00:02:56
◼
►
and really I mean I mean the singles are
00:02:59
◼
►
all rough so we'll start out with the
00:03:01
◼
►
blue album the blue album was a very
00:03:04
◼
►
good overall album this was the one that
00:03:06
◼
►
most people have heard and the but come
00:03:11
◼
►
on who you is was not the single right
00:03:14
◼
►
Buddy Holly you mean ya know well it was
00:03:16
◼
►
the second single see and it wasn't the
00:03:18
◼
►
first thing go right and many of these
00:03:20
◼
►
albums have pretty good songs or great
00:03:23
◼
►
songs as their second or third singles
00:03:24
◼
►
but so they started out with undone the
00:03:28
◼
►
sweater song
00:03:35
◼
►
and this is under the sweater song is
00:03:39
◼
►
not a bad song I like it in the context
00:03:42
◼
►
of the album but if it's the first thing
00:03:52
◼
►
I mean I guess it made sense like in the
00:03:55
◼
►
context of the 90s like it this is this
00:03:58
◼
►
was this was 1994 later bro hey man how
00:04:03
◼
►
you do ya know this you know it doped
00:04:06
◼
►
take it easy pal this kind of like
00:04:09
◼
►
grungy I don't care about anything was
00:04:11
◼
►
still parked very much part of like the
00:04:13
◼
►
mainstream grunge culture it was a
00:04:15
◼
►
little late for a like Nirvana everybody
00:04:16
◼
►
but this was still there as like the
00:04:19
◼
►
mainstream like this is what people want
00:04:21
◼
►
was like just not caring being real
00:04:23
◼
►
laid-back everything sucks like that was
00:04:26
◼
►
that was grunge culture in the early 90s
00:04:27
◼
►
so I think that this was not a great
00:04:31
◼
►
song to open up Weezer to everybody to
00:04:33
◼
►
but it wasn't a bad song like III would
00:04:36
◼
►
classify undone the sweater song as
00:04:38
◼
►
decent I don't know if I would put it
00:04:40
◼
►
although I don't think I would put it on
00:04:42
◼
►
my list as the worst for songs I think
00:04:45
◼
►
they have far worse singles yeah girls
00:04:49
◼
►
but it in terms of singles they've had
00:04:52
◼
►
better ones than this one so but I don't
00:04:56
◼
►
think it makes the the four or list yet
00:04:58
◼
►
right and then there was Buddy Holly was
00:05:00
◼
►
the second single and I think that was
00:05:01
◼
►
great I think that might have been maybe
00:05:03
◼
►
their best single ever
00:05:10
◼
►
yeah what do you mean I mean come on
00:05:13
◼
►
that I mean everyone knows that's the
00:05:15
◼
►
thought because everyone knows exactly
00:05:16
◼
►
it was even on the windows 95 plus pack
00:05:18
◼
►
cd-rom well alright anyway so what's the
00:05:21
◼
►
next song alright so after the blue
00:05:23
◼
►
album that they took a couple years off
00:05:25
◼
►
and then Pinkerton came out and I don't
00:05:27
◼
►
wanna get too much into the details of
00:05:29
◼
►
like their personal histories and
00:05:30
◼
►
everything because it doesn't matter
00:05:31
◼
►
Pinkerton was looking back on it it's
00:05:34
◼
►
it's really a fan favorite the fans of
00:05:36
◼
►
Weezer loved Pinkerton now back then it
00:05:40
◼
►
was really a flop it was a massive
00:05:42
◼
►
commercial flop and I I can't help but
00:05:45
◼
►
wonder how much of that is because of
00:05:49
◼
►
their first single that they chose to
00:05:50
◼
►
release off of this which I consider
00:05:53
◼
►
easily the worst song on the on the
00:05:55
◼
►
album and that is El Scorcho I mean it
00:06:00
◼
►
starts with a gargle
00:06:09
◼
►
it's so bad it's really bad I mean it's
00:06:12
◼
►
not even music really offensive also
00:06:22
◼
►
every time this is awful like in so many
00:06:25
◼
►
ways the the lyrics are awful the music
00:06:29
◼
►
the production is awful the singing is
00:06:31
◼
►
awful everything about it is awful and
00:06:37
◼
►
can you imagine turning on a radio and
00:06:40
◼
►
like after hearing but it's like after
00:06:45
◼
►
you know the blue album was kind of like
00:06:47
◼
►
it was like a like a modern Beach Boys
00:06:49
◼
►
record almost it was very like kind of
00:06:50
◼
►
happy surf rock for the most part you
00:06:53
◼
►
know even you know at least musically
00:06:54
◼
►
and then so they had this massive hit
00:06:58
◼
►
blue album debut and then two years
00:07:00
◼
►
later the first thing you hear on the
00:07:02
◼
►
radio from them is that I think El
00:07:09
◼
►
Scorcho might be on the list for the top
00:07:11
◼
►
four worst top four worse yeah I think
00:07:12
◼
►
it's my number one really because it's
00:07:15
◼
►
we'll go through the rest and we'll see
00:07:17
◼
►
but I think what makes it probably my
00:07:20
◼
►
number one is that this was before we
00:07:22
◼
►
knew that we sure could make terrible
00:07:24
◼
►
albums so like we we had the greatest
00:07:26
◼
►
vacations from blue and Pinkerton by
00:07:29
◼
►
modern by modern evaluation is actually
00:07:32
◼
►
a good album but to have this come out I
00:07:36
◼
►
think this I think
00:07:37
◼
►
else work show being released as the
00:07:38
◼
►
first single was critical to the failure
00:07:43
◼
►
of Pinkerton I think it contributed
00:07:45
◼
►
heavily to the failure of Pinkerton and
00:07:47
◼
►
that contributed heavily to the Weezer
00:07:50
◼
►
we have the reason we got from from then
00:07:53
◼
►
for the next like ten years of making
00:07:55
◼
►
really shallow quick production albums
00:07:58
◼
►
because I think I think you know Rivers
00:08:00
◼
►
is a complicated person the lead singer
00:08:02
◼
►
and songwriter he's a complicated person
00:08:04
◼
►
and he took the failure of Pinkerton
00:08:07
◼
►
pretty hard by most accounts and because
00:08:09
◼
►
he like he thought he was getting really
00:08:11
◼
►
personal on it and then then you know it
00:08:14
◼
►
failed commercially and so he kind of
00:08:16
◼
►
withdrew for a long time after that so I
00:08:18
◼
►
would put all that on El Scorcho well
00:08:20
◼
►
what was the next single on El Scorcho
00:08:22
◼
►
well so that's every non Pinkerton
00:08:24
◼
►
ignorance so after El Scorcho was a
00:08:27
◼
►
really good song it was the good life
00:08:37
◼
►
oh I love this song right it's catchy
00:08:40
◼
►
it's upbeat it sounds the way you'd
00:08:42
◼
►
expect Weezer to sound after hearing the
00:08:44
◼
►
Blue Album like I would call this one of
00:08:47
◼
►
their best single releases ever but it
00:08:49
◼
►
wasn't the first release el Scorcho and
00:08:51
◼
►
this wasn't until I don't know a month
00:08:53
◼
►
or two later well let's get to some of
00:08:55
◼
►
the worst yeah and then oh and also I
00:08:57
◼
►
should point out after this is pink
00:08:59
◼
►
triangle that was the third single which
00:09:01
◼
►
is another great song this is a good
00:09:11
◼
►
if they would have made the good life
00:09:13
◼
►
the first single and Pinkerton the
00:09:15
◼
►
second and just never really tusks work
00:09:17
◼
►
Joe that would have been so much better
00:09:19
◼
►
than what actually happened I think I
00:09:21
◼
►
think the album would have done way
00:09:22
◼
►
better I think they would have been
00:09:24
◼
►
rivers would have been more encouraged
00:09:26
◼
►
to keep writing songs that way by
00:09:28
◼
►
putting more emotion and instead else
00:09:30
◼
►
cork sure ruined the entire universe and
00:09:33
◼
►
then they also gored showed it oh my god
00:09:37
◼
►
my number one so then then they took
00:09:42
◼
►
because of the discouragement from this
00:09:43
◼
►
he was drew for a few years and he wrote
00:09:46
◼
►
it he brought some pretty good songs in
00:09:48
◼
►
in the meantime between that and the
00:09:49
◼
►
next album and then he threw them all
00:09:51
◼
►
away like a couple months before the
00:09:54
◼
►
album was to be released rewrote a whole
00:09:56
◼
►
new album basically from nothing and
00:09:59
◼
►
seemed to put very little into it and
00:10:01
◼
►
that became the green album and and
00:10:03
◼
►
that's where I like the green album to
00:10:04
◼
►
me it's like a collection of like almost
00:10:07
◼
►
like two minute demos like it's a very
00:10:08
◼
►
short album they I think there were a
00:10:10
◼
►
couple good songs on there that would
00:10:13
◼
►
have been better debut singles than what
00:10:17
◼
►
we got which was hash pipe
00:10:34
◼
►
don't they say like wipe in the song
00:10:39
◼
►
I thought it was at wife and then I
00:10:42
◼
►
don't think it's wipe I mean maybe you
00:10:44
◼
►
could be like ash something that makes a
00:10:46
◼
►
lot more sense I'm gonna lick this
00:10:47
◼
►
sucker up I hold I think this is wipe
00:10:52
◼
►
this site says it's wide I don't think
00:10:56
◼
►
that's correct I got my app wide that's
00:10:59
◼
►
what what what is that so I'm not a
00:11:03
◼
►
lyrics person but I don't think that
00:11:05
◼
►
makes a lot of sense either I got my
00:11:07
◼
►
eyes wide eyes wide I got my eyes wide
00:11:12
◼
►
you got go back and play that that
00:11:14
◼
►
doesn't sound like eyes wide eyes whoa I
00:11:19
◼
►
hear it now I guess I all these years I
00:11:23
◼
►
thought it was a boy and I was wondering
00:11:25
◼
►
how they could not bleep it uh well it
00:11:27
◼
►
cuz maybe that's why I said I thought it
00:11:29
◼
►
was ash white yeah that that is the most
00:11:32
◼
►
plausible eyes wide cuz you would wipe
00:11:34
◼
►
your ash from your hash pipe would you I
00:11:36
◼
►
don't know enough about pot to know well
00:11:38
◼
►
you would want to you know or maybe ash
00:11:41
◼
►
white I don't really know if that's a
00:11:43
◼
►
thing I don't know anyway so hash pipe
00:11:49
◼
►
and the funny thing is hash pipe
00:11:51
◼
►
actually did really well commercially so
00:11:54
◼
►
it served the purpose I still think it's
00:11:56
◼
►
one of the worst songs on the album I
00:11:58
◼
►
like El Scorcho better than hash pipe
00:12:00
◼
►
yeah of course there's kind of a deeper
00:12:02
◼
►
I mean because the problem with the
00:12:03
◼
►
green album is like all the songs are
00:12:04
◼
►
just completely forgettable I think I
00:12:06
◼
►
like El Scorcho because it's really
00:12:07
◼
►
funny and it's fun to sing it stupid
00:12:10
◼
►
lyrics oh it's so bad so alright so then
00:12:13
◼
►
after hash pipe they released island in
00:12:20
◼
►
see they're so good at picking the
00:12:22
◼
►
second single on the album so bad at
00:12:24
◼
►
picking the first so all seconds the
00:12:27
◼
►
'single is good yeah all first singles
00:12:29
◼
►
bad mostly yeah like in my list here I
00:12:31
◼
►
that's mostly the case so then so this
00:12:33
◼
►
is a pretty decent song and then the
00:12:35
◼
►
third one they released was photograph
00:12:36
◼
►
and I don't know how much it matters
00:12:37
◼
►
like how what singly released third I
00:12:40
◼
►
think at that point the album's fade is
00:12:41
◼
►
pretty much decided
00:12:46
◼
►
I think photograph is a very typical
00:12:48
◼
►
song on this album which is like a short
00:12:50
◼
►
fluffy song that's completely
00:12:52
◼
►
forgettable I like it yeah it's not bad
00:12:54
◼
►
it's just completely forgettable it's
00:12:56
◼
►
better than hash pipe but I don't know
00:12:58
◼
►
so maladroit was it was one of those
00:13:01
◼
►
albums where like they released kind of
00:13:04
◼
►
on the internet ahead of time and so and
00:13:06
◼
►
I was following this very closely at the
00:13:07
◼
►
time so this was pretty good I would say
00:13:09
◼
►
malodor it was one of their better
00:13:11
◼
►
releases during their like medium median
00:13:15
◼
►
years they're like it was it was a
00:13:17
◼
►
pretty good album it wasn't great it
00:13:19
◼
►
didn't set the world on fire there
00:13:20
◼
►
weren't a ton of amazing song tonight
00:13:22
◼
►
but it was pretty good overall however
00:13:24
◼
►
the song they chose to be the first
00:13:26
◼
►
single was dope knows
00:13:39
◼
►
I ranked it as good not great good it's
00:13:44
◼
►
a keeper yeah it's a keeper and then the
00:13:46
◼
►
second single was keep fishing which i
00:13:48
◼
►
think is a much better song
00:13:56
◼
►
I would say keep fishin is actually a
00:13:59
◼
►
great song for that for them and they
00:14:02
◼
►
should have made this the first single
00:14:03
◼
►
but in this case in the case of
00:14:05
◼
►
maladroit dope nose wasn't that bad
00:14:07
◼
►
keep fishin I think is better but oh
00:14:09
◼
►
well alright so then after maladroit
00:14:12
◼
►
they went to make-believe and
00:14:15
◼
►
make-believe has all the winners on here
00:14:19
◼
►
this this is something this one these
00:14:21
◼
►
are my favorite this is something so my
00:14:23
◼
►
least favorite favorites make-believe
00:14:25
◼
►
starts with Beverly Hills
00:14:32
◼
►
I love that his rapping doesn't even
00:14:37
◼
►
rhyme no it's not even good rapping but
00:14:39
◼
►
maybe that's why it's really funny and
00:14:52
◼
►
this was another song where it
00:14:54
◼
►
commercially it was a success I think
00:14:56
◼
►
but it's so bad this might be my
00:15:00
◼
►
favorite best worst single it's so bad I
00:15:04
◼
►
know because I like the wrapping is so
00:15:06
◼
►
bad right alright so after this they the
00:15:10
◼
►
second single was we are all on drugs
00:15:18
◼
►
I mean this is this is a really really
00:15:25
◼
►
terrible song they wanted people to play
00:15:27
◼
►
this on the radio there's really not
00:15:29
◼
►
much you can say about it except for
00:15:30
◼
►
like just your mouth of Gabe with aw
00:15:41
◼
►
okay this one's my number one worst
00:15:44
◼
►
number we are all on drugs yep this is
00:15:47
◼
►
my number one number one we are all on
00:15:50
◼
►
number two Beverly Hills and really I'm
00:15:54
◼
►
still deciding el Scorcho because I just
00:15:56
◼
►
find that so funny okay
00:15:59
◼
►
but it's up there they also again I
00:16:01
◼
►
don't know how much the third and fourth
00:16:02
◼
►
singles matter but they also released
00:16:04
◼
►
perfect situation which again this is
00:16:08
◼
►
like this is like a green album song
00:16:09
◼
►
there's not much content it's it's a
00:16:13
◼
►
pretty shallow song it has rivers going
00:16:14
◼
►
whoa a lot like that's like the chorus
00:16:17
◼
►
is rivers going whoa like it there's no
00:16:21
◼
►
words right there's not much again
00:16:22
◼
►
there's not much content here
00:16:36
◼
►
and again this was on the radio yeah
00:16:39
◼
►
this was a third single add this if at
00:16:40
◼
►
least is a little more catchy I mean
00:16:42
◼
►
there it's at least musical you know
00:16:44
◼
►
they like it's not a great song I don't
00:16:47
◼
►
think they should have released that as
00:16:48
◼
►
a single but I mean it's better than the
00:16:50
◼
►
first two right and then this is such a
00:16:53
◼
►
pity was that was the last one again
00:16:55
◼
►
fourth single how much does it matter
00:16:56
◼
►
but this again is also not a good song
00:17:03
◼
►
but not a terrible stuff but now
00:17:05
◼
►
compared to the rest of the album are
00:17:06
◼
►
these songs equal and the rest of the
00:17:09
◼
►
album or is the rest of the album better
00:17:18
◼
►
oh this is pretty bad yeah this is
00:17:21
◼
►
pretty bro this is really bad yeah I
00:17:23
◼
►
mean for me I think perfect situation
00:17:24
◼
►
with the chorus of woe is the most
00:17:28
◼
►
accurate representation of this album
00:17:29
◼
►
because it's an album of no content like
00:17:31
◼
►
it's like they made an album with
00:17:33
◼
►
nothing to say and so that's why rivers
00:17:36
◼
►
just going whoa for so many of the songs
00:17:38
◼
►
like that's in a lot of the songs on
00:17:40
◼
►
this it's like you need to fill time
00:17:42
◼
►
yeah I didn't like this album at all
00:17:44
◼
►
really I thought this was the album that
00:17:46
◼
►
made me stop buying Weezer albums for
00:17:47
◼
►
like ten years alright so next up is the
00:17:50
◼
►
red album this was 2008 this album
00:17:53
◼
►
begins the first single here is a song
00:17:56
◼
►
entitled the greatest man that ever
00:17:59
◼
►
lived in parentheses variations on a
00:18:02
◼
►
shaker him so it's a pretty long awkward
00:18:06
◼
►
title that does not make me want to play
00:18:08
◼
►
it at all so this song begins in I think
00:18:13
◼
►
the least compelling way for what's
00:18:16
◼
►
supposed to be a radio single
00:18:30
◼
►
so the point of a single is I think to
00:18:32
◼
►
be catchy to to get in people's head and
00:18:36
◼
►
to make them want to hear the rest of
00:18:37
◼
►
the album so if you heard this like
00:18:41
◼
►
would you even pay attention would you
00:18:42
◼
►
even like would you know if you're on a
00:18:44
◼
►
stream you should probably skip it if
00:18:45
◼
►
you're in the radio you probably change
00:18:46
◼
►
the station or zone out like
00:18:53
◼
►
now you think you're getting pulled over
00:18:55
◼
►
if you're listening to it in the car
00:18:56
◼
►
again there's no this isn't even musical
00:19:08
◼
►
maybe this is my number one it's really
00:19:17
◼
►
how is this a variation on a hymn I
00:19:19
◼
►
don't know the back story but I don't
00:19:22
◼
►
think I want some of the back story
00:19:23
◼
►
sounds like he's in pain I think he's
00:19:26
◼
►
always in pain what is this okay this is
00:19:35
◼
►
my worst one this is number one I think
00:19:36
◼
►
it maybe not my number one well I
00:19:38
◼
►
thought I'll score show with my number
00:19:39
◼
►
one but this is no this is my number one
00:19:41
◼
►
if there's drums like that like little
00:19:44
◼
►
drummer boy drums
00:19:45
◼
►
number one out for me it is just who can
00:19:49
◼
►
you imagine you can you read back that
00:19:51
◼
►
tremendous title well with a greatest
00:19:53
◼
►
man that ever lived and then in
00:19:55
◼
►
parentheses variations on a shaker him
00:19:57
◼
►
I'm just making a big scribble I bet he
00:20:00
◼
►
and I scribbled next to it just the red
00:20:02
◼
►
album I mean this that's my number I I'm
00:20:05
◼
►
stunned at how incredibly inappropriate
00:20:09
◼
►
this song is to be released as the first
00:20:11
◼
►
single of an album
00:20:19
◼
►
oh stop playing it I'm kind of want to
00:20:22
◼
►
hear the rest of it which maybe it's
00:20:23
◼
►
serving its purpose I want to know how
00:20:24
◼
►
bad it gets I mean I think I've heard
00:20:26
◼
►
how bad it gets but it keeps changing
00:20:28
◼
►
there's all these different variations
00:20:30
◼
►
on different songs in the same there's a
00:20:33
◼
►
lot of variations on this hymn
00:20:40
◼
►
now what are we listening to this is
00:20:42
◼
►
still the same trick oh my god
00:20:44
◼
►
too many variations
00:20:52
◼
►
nope this is number one there's no
00:21:02
◼
►
God is there more there's still another
00:21:05
◼
►
two minutes I think it's a six minute
00:21:08
◼
►
long song pretty long for a radio single
00:21:09
◼
►
this is their first single from this
00:21:11
◼
►
album yes this is blowing my mind this
00:21:15
◼
►
is a stage in each of us is a play stop
00:21:22
◼
►
it stop the music I thought the only
00:21:24
◼
►
fair that we have to hear the whole
00:21:25
◼
►
thing if we're declaring it our number
00:21:26
◼
►
one I think we have to hear the whole
00:21:27
◼
►
song I mean but are people really gonna
00:21:30
◼
►
be able to listen to us listening to the
00:21:31
◼
►
whole song and complaining about it
00:21:33
◼
►
somebody has to but they can't hear the
00:21:35
◼
►
song themselves not the whole thing I'll
00:21:37
◼
►
put in clips if you don't like it if you
00:21:42
◼
►
don't like it you can shut it this is
00:21:56
◼
►
oh my god that's all I can say it's
00:22:04
◼
►
we have to make michaelis no those no no
00:22:07
◼
►
one should have to listen to this
00:22:18
◼
►
it's finally over that was horrendous
00:22:21
◼
►
i I'm shocked at how bad that song is oh
00:22:28
◼
►
my god Ida there's just so much
00:22:35
◼
►
happening there Wow there were so much
00:22:38
◼
►
happening that was supposed to be sick I
00:22:42
◼
►
mean yeah I understand if it's like a
00:22:44
◼
►
song kind of like shoved in the album
00:22:46
◼
►
because they wanted to be like a little
00:22:47
◼
►
artsy or you know throw in something
00:22:50
◼
►
different or try something new but not a
00:22:52
◼
►
single no no no no that's exactly my
00:22:55
◼
►
point like who picks these things you
00:22:56
◼
►
know what I mean like do the producers
00:22:58
◼
►
pick these things or do they pick them
00:22:59
◼
►
it seems I get some kind of like
00:23:01
◼
►
collaboration between the record label
00:23:02
◼
►
in the band I mean you know Weezer has
00:23:04
◼
►
enough clout that I think they can
00:23:05
◼
►
pretty much can dictate them I don't
00:23:07
◼
►
know it's from their record singles but
00:23:10
◼
►
it's I mean this is a it's the best
00:23:13
◼
►
example I think of like an album that
00:23:14
◼
►
like well I think it well and maybe it
00:23:17
◼
►
doesn't have better song so the same the
00:23:18
◼
►
second here's the second thing we called
00:23:20
◼
►
dreamin I'm bored well after the first
00:23:27
◼
►
one of me I'm bored already
00:23:41
◼
►
this is really rough there's not enough
00:23:44
◼
►
slots in top four for all the worst
00:23:50
◼
►
this whole album just needs to be set on
00:23:52
◼
►
fire yeah else is on here well the next
00:23:55
◼
►
single was pork and beans
00:24:08
◼
►
I like that it has got a like back to
00:24:11
◼
►
their quirky weird roots it's like the
00:24:13
◼
►
modern sweater song and this was
00:24:15
◼
►
actually a hit
00:24:24
◼
►
oh I know this song yeah you've heard
00:24:26
◼
►
this before yeah this isn't as bad as I
00:24:29
◼
►
remember this this is actually in the
00:24:31
◼
►
list all right so this is actually a
00:24:32
◼
►
decent song I'll put that that is decent
00:24:34
◼
►
then they had a fourth single called
00:24:37
◼
►
troublemaker I'm bored I'm doodling it's
00:24:46
◼
►
not as bad as the other ones I wouldn't
00:24:48
◼
►
put it on the list alright so now we go
00:24:51
◼
►
to rata tube
00:24:53
◼
►
which I'm not even sure I've heard this
00:24:55
◼
►
album all the way through can we really
00:24:57
◼
►
talk about it then well let's hear the
00:24:59
◼
►
single this has what might be the second
00:25:03
◼
►
worst title of the single which is
00:25:06
◼
►
called in parentheses if you're
00:25:09
◼
►
wondering if I want you to and
00:25:11
◼
►
parentheses I want you to know starts
00:25:14
◼
►
with the parentheses yeah and it's
00:25:17
◼
►
called if you're wondering if I want you
00:25:18
◼
►
to I want you to which is weird really
00:25:21
◼
►
creepy and probably should not be a
00:25:24
◼
►
message that we are telling people so
00:25:26
◼
►
here's what that song sounds like
00:25:38
◼
►
I don't read it I don't hate I don't
00:25:40
◼
►
hate it yeah it's not bad I kind of want
00:25:43
◼
►
to like jump and snap that's getting
00:25:56
◼
►
worse hmm yeah it's I wouldn't say this
00:25:59
◼
►
is an awful song it's not a good song
00:26:00
◼
►
but it's not a bad song so then the
00:26:03
◼
►
second song the second single off this
00:26:05
◼
►
within almost as bad title I'm your
00:26:15
◼
►
I like this one too yeah this is
00:26:18
◼
►
actually a decent one I'll put the
00:26:19
◼
►
Senators decent what else we got
00:26:22
◼
►
this early the next album is Hurley
00:26:25
◼
►
which actually has the guy from lost the
00:26:27
◼
►
character Hurley on the cover so the
00:26:29
◼
►
first single off Hurley is memories
00:26:38
◼
►
well they're just really into lost I
00:26:40
◼
►
don't know maybe or maybe there is this
00:26:43
◼
►
album is about lost I think I think
00:26:45
◼
►
Hurley was the best part of lost you
00:26:46
◼
►
talk about lost some time no we have to
00:26:50
◼
►
re-watch it that would be unbearable I
00:26:51
◼
►
think yeah I don't think I could we
00:26:53
◼
►
watch it I can tree watch the first two
00:26:54
◼
►
seasons maybe until they find the others
00:26:56
◼
►
yeah even after they find the others
00:26:59
◼
►
until things start getting weird in time
00:27:00
◼
►
shifty well yeah that was yeah I think
00:27:02
◼
►
the hatch and everything that was good
00:27:04
◼
►
yeah I think the others were season 3
00:27:06
◼
►
maybe and then the time shift II wasn't
00:27:09
◼
►
until like what four or five I just got
00:27:20
◼
►
again don't hate it this is completely
00:27:23
◼
►
forgettable it's not bad but it's you
00:27:26
◼
►
know there's nothing really grabbing me
00:27:27
◼
►
I'm dancing it doesn't make the list
00:27:32
◼
►
you're not awful enough all right and
00:27:34
◼
►
then next is hang on
00:27:43
◼
►
yeah all right not bad yeah not in the
00:27:45
◼
►
list nope so it seems like they're
00:27:47
◼
►
getting better over time
00:27:48
◼
►
at choosing their singles so R attitude
00:27:51
◼
►
and Hurley both had decent singles yeah
00:27:54
◼
►
next all right so next was the most
00:27:57
◼
►
recent album everything will be all
00:27:59
◼
►
right in the end which i think is a very
00:28:00
◼
►
good album for them I like it a lot
00:28:02
◼
►
I like the art you have the big monster
00:28:05
◼
►
thing in the mountain mountains - pretty
00:28:06
◼
►
cool yeah so and this again I think this
00:28:08
◼
►
is a pretty good album like overall I
00:28:10
◼
►
think this is the best album they've
00:28:11
◼
►
made in years and I like it a lot and
00:28:14
◼
►
it's gotten me back into them so let me
00:28:17
◼
►
see the singles on this were back to the
00:28:21
◼
►
shack which is get you back get you back
00:28:24
◼
►
to the Weezer Shack yeah that was the
00:28:26
◼
►
worst that was a horrible joke cut that
00:28:41
◼
►
I like this song I don't think it's
00:28:43
◼
►
great but it's decent
00:28:45
◼
►
it's Rocking see now you like Weezer and
00:28:49
◼
►
I like Weezer but they're pretty lyrical
00:28:51
◼
►
and I'm surprised you like them usually
00:28:54
◼
►
you like much more musical than lyrical
00:28:57
◼
►
people like I don't really care that
00:28:59
◼
►
much about their lyrics but they know
00:29:01
◼
►
how to make catchy music also and that's
00:29:03
◼
►
what I think that's why I think they're
00:29:05
◼
►
so popular and they were so popular you
00:29:07
◼
►
know for so long because they do know
00:29:09
◼
►
how to make catchy songs even when
00:29:10
◼
►
they're bad they're often catchy like
00:29:13
◼
►
this is this is a decent song this is
00:29:15
◼
►
again I don't think this is a bad choice
00:29:16
◼
►
I think that's decent not amazing well
00:29:19
◼
►
cuz it seems like that the lyrics and
00:29:21
◼
►
every in the music it's much deeper it's
00:29:23
◼
►
more personal to rivers like he's
00:29:24
◼
►
actually writing stuff again well he's
00:29:27
◼
►
not writing like his throw away garbage
00:29:29
◼
►
songs right and I think lyrically this
00:29:31
◼
►
song holds up pretty well to that yeah
00:29:34
◼
►
tells a nice little story it's all about
00:29:35
◼
►
like how much cheese is gonna do what he
00:29:36
◼
►
wants and doesn't care anymore right
00:29:38
◼
►
yeah it's about which is great because
00:29:42
◼
►
that's kind of like the coming home of
00:29:44
◼
►
this album and being good yeah exactly
00:29:49
◼
►
alright so second single was Cleopatra
00:29:56
◼
►
I like the way it starts we've heard
00:30:01
◼
►
this album a couple times around the
00:30:02
◼
►
house now you can tell me no more
00:30:11
◼
►
I like it it's building it's good it's
00:30:14
◼
►
too good for our list yeah this is a
00:30:16
◼
►
good song I still don't think that shows
00:30:18
◼
►
the best singles but this is I can't
00:30:21
◼
►
complain about these choices really like
00:30:22
◼
►
they're not that they're not bad they're
00:30:23
◼
►
decent choices yeah it shouldn't be a
00:30:26
◼
►
single yeah especially that like it's
00:30:28
◼
►
the second single so that the second
00:30:30
◼
►
single I think is pretty important to
00:30:31
◼
►
kind of like like it's it's supposed to
00:30:34
◼
►
hook anyone who didn't get hooked by the
00:30:35
◼
►
first single I think see it's you know
00:30:37
◼
►
alright the second single gives you a
00:30:39
◼
►
reason to buy the album I feel like the
00:30:41
◼
►
first single gives you a reason to buy
00:30:43
◼
►
the single the second single gives you
00:30:45
◼
►
more of a reason to buy the album and
00:30:47
◼
►
then the third single if that one's with
00:30:49
◼
►
clinch or two and you have three good
00:30:50
◼
►
songs then you're gonna buy the whole
00:30:52
◼
►
album as opposed to just the three songs
00:30:53
◼
►
right alright so the third single off
00:30:56
◼
►
this was da Vinci which I think might be
00:30:57
◼
►
my favorite song on the album yeah too
00:31:07
◼
►
good for the list yeah this I would say
00:31:09
◼
►
this is a very good choice and maybe
00:31:11
◼
►
should have been the first single on
00:31:13
◼
►
this album maybe he was the pickup I
00:31:15
◼
►
could feel it coming
00:31:16
◼
►
feel the wave
00:31:33
◼
►
yeah I like this see this sounds like
00:31:35
◼
►
classic Weezer right it does this sell
00:31:38
◼
►
albums good yeah this is this this is a
00:31:40
◼
►
solid revival like I really did not like
00:31:42
◼
►
where they went for the last couple and
00:31:44
◼
►
then this I think was a solid revival of
00:31:46
◼
►
like kind of getting back on track okay
00:31:49
◼
►
let's go to the next album all right
00:31:51
◼
►
this is it that's it well there's no
00:31:52
◼
►
more singles go away
00:32:03
◼
►
yeah it's not right song for a single
00:32:05
◼
►
it's a good song overall but they're
00:32:07
◼
►
getting better yeah
00:32:08
◼
►
alright so that's it now that's all that
00:32:11
◼
►
that's that's all they're official
00:32:12
◼
►
albums I'm not gonna count like singles
00:32:14
◼
►
and compilation that everything that's
00:32:15
◼
►
okay so we're going back here my number
00:32:18
◼
►
one is the gentleman the variations on
00:32:22
◼
►
shit the greatest man that ever lived
00:32:24
◼
►
shake your hand that is also my number
00:32:30
◼
►
one it is so so bad Alan just so weird
00:32:34
◼
►
it's like weird as a single like okay if
00:32:36
◼
►
you like it as a song awesome but as a
00:32:38
◼
►
single on the radio that is just if you
00:32:42
◼
►
don't like it it's what's a what's a
00:32:46
◼
►
nice radio word for ballsy I wouldn't
00:32:49
◼
►
even say it's ballsy I would say it's
00:32:51
◼
►
dumb like to put that as your radio
00:32:53
◼
►
single because it doesn't really
00:32:55
◼
►
represent the album very well and it's a
00:32:58
◼
►
terrible song and it's a terrible radio
00:32:59
◼
►
single like it it is I can't imagine
00:33:02
◼
►
anybody any program director or anybody
00:33:06
◼
►
programming a streaming station anybody
00:33:09
◼
►
looking at that listening to that song
00:33:10
◼
►
and saying I would like to play this for
00:33:12
◼
►
our audience or anybody hearing that
00:33:14
◼
►
song if somebody somehow played it
00:33:17
◼
►
anybody hearing that song and saying I
00:33:19
◼
►
want to buy that album yeah no okay
00:33:22
◼
►
so on the same album my number two is
00:33:29
◼
►
Jim it was pretty bad to see I think
00:33:31
◼
►
though for me like it just kills this
00:33:34
◼
►
album it's seriously it just digs its
00:33:36
◼
►
hole and just drops it in it and it
00:33:38
◼
►
forgets about it forever it's so
00:33:39
◼
►
terrible it just sets it doesn't make
00:33:42
◼
►
you want to buy any song on this album
00:33:43
◼
►
based on those two which is sad because
00:33:46
◼
►
we like real either we do right well and
00:33:48
◼
►
the third single pork and beans was very
00:33:50
◼
►
successful that should have been the
00:33:52
◼
►
first I think I still think it's a
00:33:54
◼
►
terrible song overall it's pretty funny
00:33:57
◼
►
but it's yeah but I mean they didn't
00:33:59
◼
►
have a lot of great choices on the album
00:34:00
◼
►
you know what's your number two my
00:34:03
◼
►
number two I think has to be El Scorcho
00:34:09
◼
►
just because of the impact it had at the
00:34:12
◼
►
time like it was so it was so costly to
00:34:17
◼
►
them and in the end that was their first
00:34:20
◼
►
truly awful single like I'm done the
00:34:23
◼
►
sweater song was not a bad single it's
00:34:25
◼
►
not a great single but it's it's decent
00:34:26
◼
►
you know but then to launch your second
00:34:30
◼
►
album with such high expectations to
00:34:32
◼
►
launch that without score show I think
00:34:33
◼
►
is fatal it's that's almost my number
00:34:35
◼
►
one it was my number one before I gave
00:34:37
◼
►
this crazy long titled song and listen
00:34:39
◼
►
now that I've heard that it has to be
00:34:41
◼
►
number one but well if we're talking
00:34:42
◼
►
just the first singles off of the album
00:34:45
◼
►
I think I would have to go with Beverly
00:34:47
◼
►
Hills as my number - yeah Beverly Hills
00:34:53
◼
►
is really really bad now that being said
00:34:56
◼
►
because we're on drugs which is was my
00:35:00
◼
►
number three but if we're not gonna do
00:35:01
◼
►
second singles well I think we can do
00:35:04
◼
►
second singles but it's not as powerful
00:35:06
◼
►
no it's not as fast like if your first
00:35:08
◼
►
Mila comes out and just sucks that I
00:35:10
◼
►
think is is more what this what this
00:35:12
◼
►
episode is about right yeah yeah okay so
00:35:14
◼
►
number one is greatest worst song ever
00:35:16
◼
►
yeah number two for me is El Scorcho
00:35:18
◼
►
what's your number two again was it
00:35:20
◼
►
Beverly Hills Beverly Hills okay and
00:35:22
◼
►
then number three what do you think is
00:35:24
◼
►
your number three hash pipe
00:35:28
◼
►
I think I agree I think I have to go
00:35:33
◼
►
hash pipe on that as well because he
00:35:35
◼
►
Beverly Hills as much as I don't like it
00:35:38
◼
►
it did very well for them so I I can't
00:35:42
◼
►
put that as high on my list as you do
00:35:43
◼
►
yeah but it's silly it's just like but
00:35:49
◼
►
it's it's similar to pork and beans and
00:35:51
◼
►
that it did get a lot of radio time it
00:35:52
◼
►
was very popular it was very catchy and
00:35:54
◼
►
and it is not as bad but HAP I it could
00:35:58
◼
►
have it could they could have picked a
00:36:00
◼
►
better better song from that album on
00:36:03
◼
►
there it wasn't a great album I'm not
00:36:07
◼
►
sure they could have honestly it was it
00:36:09
◼
►
was pretty pretty rough out how they
00:36:13
◼
►
definitely could have picked a better
00:36:14
◼
►
yeah if they would have picked island in
00:36:16
◼
►
the Sun that would be a better choice
00:36:18
◼
►
and that was their second they can often
00:36:20
◼
►
pick good second singles yeah second
00:36:23
◼
►
single was fine but to put hash pipe up
00:36:25
◼
►
there so hash pipe is easily my number
00:36:27
◼
►
three and now my number four is El
00:36:29
◼
►
Scorcho because I do like it I like it
00:36:31
◼
►
in its awfulness so that's why I had to
00:36:34
◼
►
lower it down the list on worst awful to
00:36:37
◼
►
the least awful because I liked it I
00:36:39
◼
►
don't know it just it just tickles my
00:36:42
◼
►
heart see I think I'm gonna for my
00:36:45
◼
►
number four let's see it is a kind of
00:36:48
◼
►
terrible the lyrics are bad
00:36:51
◼
►
no saying else the court show mmm no I
00:36:56
◼
►
it's funny it makes me think of history
00:36:59
◼
►
in our lives so I like it you you
00:37:02
◼
►
associate of all the Weezer songs we've
00:37:04
◼
►
shared together you associate that one
00:37:06
◼
►
with the background of our life no not
00:37:08
◼
►
exclusively it's just there because I
00:37:10
◼
►
believe it was probably one of the songs
00:37:12
◼
►
you put on my CD it had to have LC work
00:37:15
◼
►
show yeah cuz it you didn't yeah yeah
00:37:17
◼
►
you gave me didn't even though I lied
00:37:19
◼
►
instead I had it maybe I out of mercy
00:37:22
◼
►
mitad that one yeah alright so my number
00:37:28
◼
►
four have you gone number four you el
00:37:30
◼
►
Scorcho yes oh your number my number
00:37:31
◼
►
four I think I'm gonna have to go with
00:37:33
◼
►
we are all on drugs
00:37:38
◼
►
no but we are doing number ones songs
00:37:41
◼
►
where all the drugs was number two
00:37:43
◼
►
but Beverly Hills wasn't that bad so my
00:37:46
◼
►
number one is the greatest song that
00:37:49
◼
►
number two is El Scorcho number three is
00:37:52
◼
►
what did I say was number three hashtag
00:37:55
◼
►
and number four for me is we are on
00:37:58
◼
►
drugs okay well then if we're doing that
00:38:00
◼
►
then mine is the greatest song that was
00:38:02
◼
►
ever the worst and then number two its
00:38:05
◼
►
dreamin number three is we're on drugs
00:38:08
◼
►
and number four would be hash pipe or
00:38:12
◼
►
Beverly Hills oh you don't have a firm
00:38:15
◼
►
number four I'm thinking about it give
00:38:17
◼
►
me a second I have my little I have a
00:38:20
◼
►
solid list this time and I did research
00:38:22
◼
►
one had to be searched this is much more
00:38:24
◼
►
your show in your pics though I think at
00:38:26
◼
►
the fair I'm glad that you have now that
00:38:28
◼
►
it's your topic this is the first time
00:38:30
◼
►
it's been your topic so I think that
00:38:33
◼
►
that's right of you to have a list and
00:38:35
◼
►
for me to have a little bit of a Marco
00:38:37
◼
►
list very small little bit of a Marco
00:38:39
◼
►
list I am pretty personal sir yeah I'll
00:38:43
◼
►
give you credit you did pretty well not
00:38:45
◼
►
nearly as bad as my usual list quality
00:38:48
◼
►
yeah I think if we are adding the other
00:38:50
◼
►
songs in just general worst singles that
00:38:53
◼
►
came out at all Beverly Hills hash pipe
00:38:55
◼
►
in no Scorcho are probably tied for
00:38:57
◼
►
fourth so you have to read number four I
00:38:59
◼
►
do have three number fours but I have I
00:39:01
◼
►
have a one two and three and three
00:39:03
◼
►
number fours I don't have like 15 15 or
00:39:06
◼
►
whatever you had I win no you don't win
00:39:09
◼
►
I win so in closing I don't think Weezer
00:39:12
◼
►
is a bad bin I like a lot of their music
00:39:14
◼
►
and I hope this was actually not too
00:39:16
◼
►
negative about them as a band no it was
00:39:20
◼
►
just I just think it's amusing that they
00:39:21
◼
►
have such incredibly bad abilities
00:39:25
◼
►
especially you know recently it's it
00:39:27
◼
►
does seem like they've fixed that in the
00:39:29
◼
►
last couple releases but in all their
00:39:31
◼
►
earlier work they just seemed to pick
00:39:33
◼
►
the worst songs as their first singles
00:39:35
◼
►
for all their albums yep
00:39:49
◼
►
it's so bad I bring home the turkey and
00:39:53
◼
►
I bring home the bacon
