Final Four: (7) Jimmy Eat World - Futures vs. (27) Weezer - Weezer (The Blue Album) Bracket • Page 10

only a hot take if you’re on that Jimmy Soros payroll

 

Agree that Make Believe is better than Invented

 

What was the reception from Weezer fans when Rivers sang on Magic? That collab felt like it came out of left field to me

 

my take is it is not a release by the band Weezer so i pretend it does not exist

 

Weekly reminder that Make Believe rules.

 

Make Believe has Perfect Situation which is one of their best songs but on the other hand it also has most of the rest of the album so

 

It has "This is Such a Pity," one of their most underrated songs

 

And "Hold Me." And "Haunt You Ever Day."

 

"peace" is a sick lil tune

 

Blue is a great album. Probably like my 50th favourite of all time. But in my view it's benefited from a soft run to this point. Think I've voted for it every time somehow.

 

So we've got 2 seminal 90s albums, a website fave, and a classic rock/americana album in the final 4.

I think Blue is the best Weezer record and one of the best 90s albums of all time.
From the four, that would probably be my choice to take the crown.

 

Things I really like on make believe:

Haunt You Every Day - great song
The “looooooove youu”s in my best friend, a meh but far too reviled song

don’t hate bev hills tbh

 

Beverly Hills is one of the worst songs this band has ever written, and that's saying a lot from someone who has stanned Make Believe for the past 17 years.

My Best Friend may be worse too.

Every other song on the album slaps tho.

 

perfect situation might be their best song post-maladroit. it’s a perfect pop hook.

 

i’m confused

 

My Best Friend is fine, that opening eight has a ton of energy

 

they need to exclusively write songs in 6/8

 

responded to the wrong post because im stupid

 

"My Best Friend" is not good. It was written for Shrek and it sounds as such lol

 

Why you gotta bring Shrek into this

 

My Beat Friend is aight but the best Weezer best friend song is Brightening Day

 

Hey, Shrek is not the problem here lol

 

“It was written for Shrek and it sounds as such” says otherwise!

 

great weezer song without rivers singing (rachel from that dog.)

 

One of my favorites, Pinkerton has a few great b-sides/demos
