KevinG Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muP9eH2p2PI I totally was gonna hate on P&B, but after seeing that video, awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Good Old Neon Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I think you missed the point a little. It's actually pretty funny. I was not aware of that, however, if the song was indeed written in reaction to Geffen instructions to write more commercial material, then its seditious lyrics are either voided by the wholesale capitulation involved in going home and writing said commercial material, or worse, they're a calculated attempt to boost record sales by wrapping faux-defiance in pretty paper Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lamradio Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I like it.. It's fun, cheesy, and it rocks.. It reminds me of the old Weezer (Undone, Buddy Holly) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 You are no fun.Yeah. And I have no problem with Steven Tyler singing about teenagers either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
watch me fall Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I've had this sig long before I saw Caitlin Upton and this video. Coincidence? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 that video is nothing short of spectacular...their best since 'buddy holly'. i'm not that huge of a weezer fan, but the song is alright too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bsr8j Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 Troublemaker that low? If this song had different lyrics it might be one of my favorites. But as it stands, the lyrics bug the hell out of me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Is there a decent rip of the full album out there? I can't find one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 If this song had different lyrics it might be one of my favorites. But as it stands, the lyrics bug the hell out of me. Weezer's always had pretty awful lyrics for the most part Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I actually didn't mind most of Make Believe but for some reason Troublemaker gets to me. It is beyond reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bsr8j Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 The four bonus tracks from the deluxe edition of The Red Album have leaked. I think I'll pass on downloading these. Something should remain a surprise on Tuesday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 On first listen it certainly sound better than the last two albums. The first three songs are pretty great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bigideas Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Circuit City will be selling the album for $5.99! If I remember correctly, the bonus tracks are only offered via iTunes or digital retailers - not on any physical CD? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bsr8j Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 If I remember correctly, the bonus tracks are only offered via iTunes or digital retailers - not on any physical CD? Yes and no. There are a bunch of bonus tracks. You can get a physical CD with four of the bonus tracks, but there are more to be had through online retailers. This thread over at albumsix.com has a break down of where all the songs will show up: http://www.albumsix.com/bboard/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1873 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianjeremy Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Circuit City will be selling the album for $5.99! Yeah, I saw that in the paper this morning! I was freaking out! I get all sorts of excited about new Weezer albums! Can't wait til tuesday! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamradio Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Too bad the version with the most songs is the itunes pre-order version. Not a big fan of itunes (refuse to install that crap on my computer). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This thread over at albumsix.com has a break down of where all the songs will show up: http://www.albumsix.com/bboard/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1873 thanks.that's completely insane.usually when there is a deluxe edition they show it's price in smaller print below the regular, but it's not mentioned in any of the sales papers.if i can get the full normal album for 5.99 and the deluxe is 15.99 or something, 4 tracks wouldn't be worth 10 more bucks. i usually go for deluxe versions, but if the price difference is that great without a better packaging upgrade as well, i'll probably skip on it.
