I LIKE THESE GUYS.. | Weezer - Buddy Holly (Official Music Video) REACTION!

[@skaughtmc6591]

Buddy Holly was a 50’s rocker, and Happy Days was a tv show in the early 80’s about the 50’s. They edited themselves into the diner from the show.

[@carebear4554]

It threw me off for a sec. I knew it sounded too modern to be on Happy Days.

[@brooks323]

show was at it's best 74-78. I think the show started in 74.

[@raynajacobsen4330]

I've always admired the editing on this video...geniuses of the time

[@marilynk30]

Yeah it aired from 1974 to 1984!

[@marshsundeen]

Yes Happy Days was about The Cunninghams, Richie and Joanie (siblings), and The Fonz, Ralph Mouth and Potsie.

[@TrojansOwl1]

“Say it ain’t so” by Weezer is next!

Hey don't jump the shark bro!

[@echopryme]

TRUE STORY!!! One night, about 10 years ago, I was drunk off my ass asleep and I heard this song playing downstairs. I came down to figure out why, because I LOVE Weezer. And I saw my 60 year old father sitting in front of the TV at 3am watching this video. I asked him "What are you doing, man?!" And he said "I'm watching Happy Days." He flipped through channels and found this on, like MTV4 or some shit, and thought it was an episode of Happy Days he hadn't seen. Haha! And he was jamming out. Then I told him, "Dad, thats the Weezer video..." and he didn't believe me. Kept jamming. Then the end happened and he realized I was right. Looked at me, after jamming out, and said "Eh... wasn't THAT good." Because he's one of those 'there's been no good music since 1975' people. But for a MOMENT.... 😎 Weezer had his old ass.

[@RockinAllDay]

So awesome.

[@flipbookboi3856]

[@IFeltFelt]

This video always impressed me. How they managed to cram these 90's dudes so seamlessly into real footage from a 70's sitcom amazes me, but that's partly why director Spike Jonze is a legend.

I fucking dies at your initial reaction. This is by far my favorite reaction from beginning to end

[@bosshogg8447]

When Weezer came on the scene in the really early 90’s, they created a whole new genre of alt-rock...Nerd Rock. To this day, their way of introducing themselves to us, the first line of their first track on their first album, might be the most epic introduction the music world has ever heard...The song is called “My name is Jonas” , and it was a special one.

[@The_Kiosk]

If you, a black man dressed in Rasta, went in there and started dancing, as a kid who watched this show growing up I can say with confidence that The Fonz (the leather jacket dude in the video) would 100% have your back.

[@DMCLN]

Just in case you didn't know, Happy Days is an old sitcom and they used special effects to put them inside an episode! My friend introduced me to Weezer in HS and The Blue Album and Pinkerton have a special place in my ❤️.

[@venessalee2426]

I love Pinkerton!

[@alexkokai9111]

Bro I fucking love your energy so much, so positive yet energetic, much love bro😂♥️

[@neilmartin99]

If you aren't familiar with the 70's TV show, "Happy Days," a lot of this will go over your head. Happy Days was a 70's TV sitcom that was written about the Rock n Roll era of the 50's. Weezer in this video are performing as a wholesome 50's band. Thus the cheezy smiles and expressions. The diner in the video is where the gang from Happy Days would hang out. Much of the video shows actual footage from the old TV show edited in with Weezer performing on the stage. It's quite brilliant actually. Check out the song, Beverly Hills. Also by Weezer.

[@devonbell6795]

Buddy Holly and the Crickets inspired the Beatles and Rolling Stones. Absolute legend! You should react to some old school Buddy. “That’ll Be the Day” is a great place to start.

[@carmenmehringer9765]

Yes, @Devon Bell answered your question on the title of song. In the 90’s Grunge was so prevalent that it made Weezer look squeaky clean like the 50’s generation. That’s the reference to Buddy Holly and the Crickets. Mr Video if you haven’t reacted to Buddy a good one to start with is “That a be the day”. Rock pioneers BH & the Crickets! Also you may know our “Fonzie” from a different character aka Coach Klein in the movie Water Boy. 😂Trust me GenX had it better with The Fonz (Aaaaaa...👍)

[@ronniewood2325]

How about some happy days...and "The Fonz"!!!

The Sweater Song is another must from Weezer. They also covered the song Africa by Toto along with Weird Al.

@Hilltop JD614 Kind of. I don't think Weird Al actually did anything on the song, but he's in the video, pretending to be Rivers.

This vid is a throwback to the singer songwriter Buddy Holly who had a famously 'nerdy' look and wore glasses on stage. He also tragically died in a Plane crash while on tour, along with the pilot, Ritchie Valens and "The Big Bopper"( two other iconic music artists of the time) ...another great song named 'American Pie ' was about this...

Happy Days, was an American Sitcom that ran from 1974 to 1984, it was set in the 1950s and 60s. "Buddy Holly "by Weezer was released in 1994, and pays homage to Happy Days in this video. At the time it seemed very technologically advanced placing the current band in the old footage (something we take for granted now). Buddy Holly was s musician active in the 1950s, at the time Happy Days was set, tying the song into the video theme. Rivers Como, the lead signer of Weezer looks vaguely like Buddy Holly.
