Weezer- Island In The Sun (1999 home recording demo)

the best version of this wonderful and timeless song

[@PelleSpokes]

It may just be the quality of the tape, but I like how Rivers voice is still a little high, like his voice still hasn't completely dropped yet.

I like this song. It reminds me of the first time i saw the sea, i was an innocent little preteen with a shitty haircut and in love for the first time. And i had no problems at all aside from school being hard. Good times. I like this version better because the tape's sorta rough so it feels like an old memory or something corny like that.

i love comments like this, those who share moments of joy and give off that nostalgia of a moment never existed, like as if it was from an alternative life. i love imperfect and raspy demos, sounds like they made it with much intention

[@IkinBBfromAnthologyOfTheKiller]

@@manyfandomslol So do I, gives me something more to think about when i hear theese songs. And i guess we're not alone on thinking the "raspiness" in this sounds nice, since grunge rock exists.

f minor instead of e minor huh?

[@dannycolverson6944]

This song never did anything for me...its popularity just turns that feeling into hate. Green and Maladroit was such a dark period for weezer. It's a shame they still play this
