Weezer - Everybody Needs Salvation

[@bigbigx2250]

rivers really made the one of the greatest rock songs of all time and thought "nah. dont release it"

[@expiredoats9953]

This is one of the **best** Weezer songs that I have ever heard, and it's so underappreciated! Too bad not many people know about this song, because I think it's beautiful.

[@nomakeup]

This is basically the perfect weezer song 👍🏻

[@starespe8979]

nomakeup First verse is soft: check, 1st chorus is heavy and hits hard:check, 2nd verse follows up the chorus being softer than it but also being harder than the 1st verse:check, Bridge leading to guitar leading into mixed up chorus: check. Holy crap you're right

[@cedar_likethetree]

[@commonrider5445]

My goodness if this would have been on Everything Will Be Alright in the End it would be even harder for me to say that album doesn't tie Pinkerton and Blue for me. The bridge lyrics are in the booklet after The British Are Coming so I like to imagine that is where it would have been on the album. Such a great comeback for Weezer!

[@austinbramer558]

commonrider5445 ewbaite ties green at best

[@GatorGolfing]

It's way better than Green.

[@austinbramer558]

GatorGolfing no

[@monstermash7465]

Why is it not better then Green?

[@austinbramer558]

Monster Mash green is consistent with every track being great. This album was alright with some standout tracks. Man if this song and the others were as good as this is would be better than blue and Pinkerton

[@ElliotBoyette]

I've lost myself in all the Weezer B-Sides and unreleased tracks lately but man I just keep on coming back to this song. It's easily some of their top-tier material. On their next album this should just be on it just because.

[@lovelar23]

I come from the future. We're in a pandemic, Weezer released 2 albums this year, still no salvation :(

[@LauraJB2011]

This may be my favorite Weezer song.

[@onikaru]

This is really a good song, especially the chaos of the end being silenced with one piano note. Love it.

[@ChaosGummyBears]

i dont know if you guys know how hard it is to sing 2:04 - 2:26 ?1?!?!?! Try it yourself and try to have as smooth as a transition in the line "of the dark". I admire Rivers to even be able to RECORD something that smooth and physically breathtaking. I wish he would sing this live though

[@azula2399]

This is what I want the Black Album to sound like if Rivers wants to go to a more poppier sound

[@christopherbrooke2142]

Well, pacific daydream is all pop.

[@DatHawkGuy]

It would be even better if they put this song on the black album

[@wfd87]

so I just heard the new single and it is actually like this wow

[@ctxx24]

Lolll

[@killerkuerbis6845]

well

[@sickrandy2946]

Nice to hear a Weezer song that isn’t about how a girl doesn’t like Rivers despite him being nearly 50 and married

[@gabeaddisonmusic]

Well you realize that other band members can write songs also like the drummer, guitarist, or bassist. but idk how that works with their band tho

[@justintoland3225]

Rivers writes 98% of Weezer songs. Only ones I can think he didn't write were Thought You knew and In the Mall. Also worth noting Hurley was largely collaborative.

[@justintoland3225]

Oh and Surf Wax America was also written by Pat.

[@justintoland3225]

@dn I actually knew that. Just forgot. I'm sure there isnanother one I'm forgetting

[@gabeaddisonmusic]

Yeah it’s cool

[@fohto1]

this entire song is beautiful

[@buruno2m]

This song should totally be on the white album. Would be icing on the cake. One of the best weezer songs in my opinion.

[@VarynDEE33t]

buruno2m doesn't really fit with the sunny vibe of white imo

[@WoeBoeT]

It fits better on ewbaite imo The guitar sound is very futuroscope and the vocals remind me of ive had it up to here

[@lazrpo]

WoeBoeT not to mention that this song was on the tracklist for Ecco Homo, the album that eventually transformed into EWBAITE. It definitely fits and its a shame it didn't make the album.

[@saltedsundae]

Meet me in the dark My heart shrivels when the light is shining I can't get back home alone I need someone here to guide me Praise for the awakened one He truly saved my life But after all his truth is small And I love the lie Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn't come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I'm something Just like in a dream I scream And no one hears the words I'm saying Have I lost my mind this time? Or have I won the game we're playing? That's all I really care about It's kind of wonderful Kiss me while we both are still intangible Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn't come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I'm something Yes I still need to know I'm something I'm ready to love you I'm ready to give my heart I'm ready to trust you 'Cause I ain't afraid of the dark I'm ready to love you I'm ready to give my heart I'm ready to trust you 'Cause I ain't afraid, I ain't afraid of the dark! Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn't come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I'm something

[@DuckPetsDucks]

i come back to this frequently and i dunno why. it feels really emotional for me.

[@crispybaboy]

I revisit this more than the blue album

[@Sliver90]

same.. also i revisit most songs from Alone XI: The EWBAITE Years more than the Blue Album.

i’ve been a weezer fan all my life but this song just made me take them more seriously

[@delusionalx2605]

What I would do for a dark Weezer record that sounds like this

[@jmscales1]

The fact that songs like where's my sex?, the girl got hot, and Beverly Hills made it onto albums and this one didn't frustrates me a tad

[@combathoney1]

See also: Miss Sweeney and Pug. Amazing songs that somehow get left off the Red album while crap like Cold Dark World made the cut. Bizarre.

[@beastmonsterthing3]

+Nicholas Collins that album's tracklisting is a tragedy

[@LaRévolutionSociale]

Oh yes it is, but I don't think Cold Dark World is a crap song. A bizarre one? Sure! But not a crap one. Don't get me wrong, Red Album suffers from a fuckload of crap songs, from Troublemaker to Everybody Get Dangerous! But the rest is fairly good, and it reaches its culmination with The Angel and the One that is truly a perfect song. All the extras are pretty great, from Miss Sweeney to Pig, and they should have made it on the album for sure. Red Album's biggest tragedy is that it could have been another Blue...

[@weezerfanatic5320]
