That is so cool, it really captures the feel from a Bleachers live show (when Jack and Evan do the dueling sax/guitar)
I'm probably the only one, but I replaced the album version with the single version because it just makes me FEEL really weird to have that line missing when I get to it.
Has anyone else noticed that Paper Rings is like 80% Weezer’s (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To?
I’m planning to continue our DM conversation regarding this (and other resequencing) but a small teaser: listen to Daylight into Miss Americana I gave myself chills
It's my favorite slow burn so far. Wasn't an immediate favorite but after sitting with the record over the weekend it's the one I'm currently dwelling on.
Paper Rings is my favorite but I've done 1 listen so it's very very early It's just so damn heartwarming
Speaking of Miss Americana, the vocal melody in the beginning of each verse is SUPER FAMILIAR. Does anyone know what song it sounds like?
Paper Rings makes me think of poodle skirts and ice cream parlors. This isn't at all a bad thing, I just always visualize it being a Grease b-side or something when I hear it (this is about vibe, literally nothing else).
also imagine like you're 15 and you're at the mall and you're sad about your crush and cruel summer is playing but the speakers are shitty so it's kind of muffled and you're just in the food court being angsty. that's what that song sounds like if there's a nice way to say that.
I searched "weezer" in this thread and got no results so I figured it wasn't brought up. Glad I wasn't the only one who caught it.
