Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
When you're on a holiday
You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too
On an island in the sun
We'll be playin' and havin' fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
Hip hip
Hip hip
When you're on a golden sea
You don't need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone
On an island in the sun
We'll be playin' and havin' fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore

Love this song but, wouldn't the lyrics: "...and I feel so fine I can't control my mind" be better? Every time I hear it I want to change the words.
I think using the word "brain" instead of "mind" was a sort of tongue-in-cheek joke on their part: pointing out how they couldn't control their brain/mind so the lyric doesn't rhyme as listeners would expect.

This will be the song I dance to with my oldest daughter at her wedding... such a sweet song with so many memories of happy times spent.
Sounds good. Has your daughter signed on for this? (The dance moves may require some consideration.)
Life was..... just carefree!
A personal 10.

Interesting. I hardly noticed it in 2000, now it's far more interesting. I think musically it's well crafted and very enjoyable. I wonder if you like it less now because you remember it as better than it actually was whereas I am appreciating something that is familiar, but overlooked.
Indeed.
On the other hand, nothing is better than the best of jazz. You should stretch and exercise your muscles of listening and appreciation. Some of America's greatest artists were jazz maestros. "Bad" is a word with no relevance to Miles, Trane, Duke, Monk, etc. et al. And that's a fact, Jack.
Amen.

Well, it is not as bad as jazz in any case... now that would really be bad.

AHEM!
Only geeks were invited.
Ironic comment considering that Weezer was in the forefront of what music journalists called the "Emo" movement.
Actually if you know anything about this band, and I got major into them when my son in his teen years connected so heavily on an emotional level, you know that they expressed the emotions of a generation of young Americans -- like my son.
Listen to the first two albums...
AHEM!

I like it as is.

Amazing turntable. Considered top-end then.
RP has only two Weezer songs? Somebody's gotta upload more!
well, I just checked...a lot of uploaded weezer songs didn't make it in the rp library, because they got rejected. I don't know if they got rejected because of a poor bitrate / wrong encoding etc. or because of the songs themselves?
i'd love to hear "say it ain't so". i remember spending a complete day with this song on "single repeat" ;o) but maybe other weezer songs aren't "even-tempered" enough for RP?
Someone could try and upload "My Name is Jonas" - that song hasn't been uploaded (and rejected) so far...as far as I can see...
SPOILER ALERT
RP has only two Weezer songs? Somebody's gotta upload more!
And they're not even the best one's.
I have a feeling were lucky to have these two though.
Damn people. This is a very good point. In the Garage, Say it ain't so, My name is Jonas, Pink Triangles, El Scorcho are all very worthy. How do other people sample stuff at the right bitrate to submit it?
Yes. 5 awesome songs noted by Sloggydog. Come on you uploaders.....

I feel the same way. I don't particularly care for any of their other songs, but I like this one.

I came here to say the exact same thing. Embarrassing.
That's some vintage gear, brother. Whatcha got there? Turntable looks cherry!
Its an Empire 698 Turntable I bought new back in '77 and the receiver is a Sony STR-7055 I bought new a few years before that. This is my home "office" system.

I agree. It's ridiculous.
Why is it that some people insist on calling the guitar an axe?

Some people like it. I'm guessing you don't.
Can't stop myself. . . I'll have to join you.

I think John might have come up with something catchier than "I can't control my brain" ...
I think you give John too much credit.

now I have to go.
Would a nerd have a lightning bolt on his guitar strap?
Actually, yeah, I suppose he would...
Weezer to me has always been Beatlelike songwriting with power chords. Love 'em

Which is hilarious because it is such a sad song.
It's probably good that you're "inclined to agree" with your own conclusion. I like the contradictory wordplay: "grown two sizes too small" and "aggressively lame" - good stuff. I could see why some people wouldn't care for this tune; it's kind of silly, but I don't think it means that your heart has gotten smaller.
FORMER Mayors, I stand corrected...
How much longer until the shotgun wedding? As soon as semipro hockey season is over? I can't wait to see that whole clan in the news once again...
Bristol had her baby Tripp on Sunday, so you might get to see pictures soon!
Wassa matter, dude? You didn't like "The Thriller From Wasilla"? "I can see Russia from my house!"
Just for the record, I don't like her either. She is the epitome of what Hunter S.Thompson called "white trash with money", as far as I'm concerned. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
![{#Wave} {#Wave}](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_wave.gif)
I love me some Weezer, though. Even if their singer is a dick.
That's funny, cause one of the most popular bumper stickers in Wasilla is "Valley Trash and Proud of It." Personally, I hate that bumper sticker, but there are a lot of people who have it on their cars who it does apply to.
You have something against Verne Rupright?

Agree with you on that point, though not on your local choice of mayors...
