[@DeceasedChannel-r1i]

I prefer the older way honestly but hey

[@Paul-dw2cl]

in which way?

[@rawjaw1881]

Yeah definitely me too. The guitar he’s using here is my favorite. He eventually covered it with electrical tape. He accidentally dropped it or something and it became unplayable in 1998 I wanna say? Anyway the stickers one he uses now is a rebuilt version of that original Warmoth strat but sea foam green instead of sonic blue.

[@imgitai]

In that, he sucks now???😃 I hate how he’ll abandon playing the guitar part to just raise one hand in the air? The weezer in this video is the only weezer I like....

[@OTMJD]

I think, THINK, it might be to do with him being self-conscious that one of his legs was shorter than the other. Notice how when he's not singing, he steps away and constantly moves at an angle, as opposed to standing up straight? It's also why Matt moves over at the end, it's not just to use a different mic, it's to draw attention away from Rivers. If you watch their performance of Say It Ain't So on Letterman circa '95, Rivers has a leg brace on from an operation to correct the length. He's very self-consicous about, so again, Matt is doing a lot of exaggerated movements that he doesn't always do. I only conclude this because I don't think he started changing the way he held his guitar years later, I think it occured pretty much during the tenure of this 'original' (most well-known) line-up, pre-'97.

Even the simplest of songs require a great amount of effort. I love when people play chill/simple songs so well! Weezer is a great band despite what others say honestly.

[@24cincyreds]

The tone in this version is so good. Thanks for uploading again!

[@wutang2530]

Wow this sounds incredible, plus the 90s fits are just such a vibe

[@jefftucker9225]

I like that the entire band gets in on the singing and Rivers take a backseat a lot of the time and shares the spotlight

[@ProblemAdd]

love his hair in this

he cut it off about a month later then grew it back briefly in 2000. Looked cool on him then!

How does Weezer always manage to look like a Weezer cover band

[@avzeolla3960]

Mid 90’s was a treasure trove of musical talent. Amazing.

[@mtpstv94]

The gear, sound, etc sounded so much better back then. I hate how the modern gear/sound is for most 90s bands that are still around playing their songs.

[@EB-bl6cc]

I love how messy this playing, the vocals, everything is, it suits the song so well

[@danielhady3021]

I think it's all the digital processing that goes into making tracks sound tight and clean nowadays. I do appreciate the tone they've got here, real dirty and gritty sounding almost like classic rock or southern rock.

[@thecharlieramirez]

Caught a Weezer show last year and they still sounded fucking massive.

Let me guess, you only listen to the first two records? You know what you sound like right now? "Oh, it's 1994! High school is awesome!" Why don't you grow the hell up? Listen to Raditude, listen to Pacific Daydream!

Rivers is one of greatest front men of all time. He never tried to steal the show. All these guys are SUPER talented!!!!!!!!!!

[@Hatchcaptain]

This came out when I was around 30, and thinking Rock n’ Roll needed an overall. Between Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, and these guys, they set the tone for that much needed tune up that was that mid-90’s revival of sorts. Just this guy’s opinion, that’s all.... Ric Ocasek, stellar job...RIP.

[@user-ux3vw6mb4k]

Completely agree.

[@gloritta]

One of the best bands to see live!!

[@STEVSKI7]

I loved the 90's! Great bands like Weezer with fantastic musicians ... Rivers can shred also (look up Avant Garde) but plays exactly what's needed for Weezer songs.

This is one of those songs that if someone doesn't like it, even if they hate the rest of the bands catalogue, I can't take them serious. It's one of the greatest rock songs ever. Period
