Found another Weezer song I like

El Scorcho.

Didn’t think much of it at first, but it’s weird how it grows on you.



My coworker loves Weezer and swears I will, too, so I’ve been checking them out.

So far, this is the second song I like enough to put on my Driving playlist.
The first was Say It Ain’t So (which is a straight up banger I listen to at least twice a day).

Since I am smack dab in the middle of GenX, I have no idea how I missed them back in the 90’s??
I’m blaming Phish and a lack of MTV/cable. And the hippies, lol!

Didn’t really care for either.
I do have an aversion to the whole “punk pop” genre (ugh) and, because of those two songs, figured they were a part of that...
Jury is still out, as far as that goes. They are not an easily categorized band. I think they are more like Pixies? That whole soft loud soft loud thing, which I associate with 80’s alternative music more than the punk pop crap.
