It's prob because the lyrics are pretty silly and over the top and some people don't like Weezer songs like that but imo I think it's just a fun song and the production matches it
So I just played it for my daughter to show her the song her brother used to dance to when he was a toddler. I thought man song is so funny/smart and fun, seems so underrated 😆 Always amazes me some ppl don't understand the humor in playing up an alter ego.
That’s me in the thumbnail, bottom left in the front of the W holding the nacho cheese can! It was the summer after I graduated high school, and I will never ever forget that day. Being at this shoot was so much fun! I was at the Yahoo live sessions Hootenanny too. The summer of Weezer.
Rivers is so unassuming, he typically speaks very gently and tries to be as kind as possible and then he steps on stage he turns in to a egomaniac rockstar. These lyrics are hilarious.
I hate when people say things like " this doesn't sound like weezer" " this isn't as good as blue or Pinkerton" " red album is too fake"..... well sorry you feel that way, if you don't like it, don't listen. Just because it doesn't sound like their first two albums doesn't mean it doesn't sound like weezer, rivers wrote it and they played it, so it obviously does sound like them. If red album is so fake explain the songs "heart songs" " everybody get dangerous" and "the greatest man that ever lived" weezer is the best band of all time and despite all of the haters stayed playing and is still together after twenty plus years, just trying to please you ass holes, and do what they want.
I think they were being ironic for a lot of songs on here lol. Like, you gotta admit, songs like Thought I Knew and Cold Dark World could've been left behind for the better...
The Robby King Eh sometimes, i feel like being a kid again because you didn't have to worry about anything except hanging out with friends, do decent in school, and then going home and playing a fuck ton of video games
@theMingst3r their song "Undone (the sweater song)" is actually about going insane and a guy who is depressed. Weezer's ability to appeal to a wide rage of emotions is one of the qualities that make them great.
I suggested the worlds largest plate of nachos in a high school Spanish class back in 2006 ( 0:35 ). I guess I'm a head of my time! Can't wait to see these guys August 14th!

DAMN THIS SONG IS CATCHY AS FUCK I LOVE IT. yes I love the blue album and Pinkerton but come on, their songs like this, back to the shack, and so hype me up like Weezer is just so lovable with every song they make. And this is coming from someone who gets down to heavy metal lmao so please enjoy this banger
I find this one to be more impressive than Paramore’s because in that one almost every record they tried to break was hyper specific and not really impressive, but all of the ones in these videos are vague and genuine accomplishments.
I LOVE Rivers. He is so funny. I am huge Blue Album/Pinkerton fan, but what people don't get--is that his new music reflects himself and how he is much more comfortable with himself and his life. Like, just look at this video. He is having FUN.
i had a dream that all of the year 13ths at my school (seniors, for you americans), had to learn a dance to this song, taught by my english teacher on my bed. it was the weirdest thing ever, but i woke up with this song in my head, and i havent heard it in years. i had nearly forgotten how awesome Weezer is!!!
I remember when they first came out, I had the Blue Album on tape. That album was awesome then and still is. I think I still got the tape somewhere in my closet
@@p1ckl3ju1c3 no damn chilling when it come to rivers. It's Rivers Cuomo, if anyone ever forgets that information, they deserve to get the death sentance
Kad Redd I think Pinkerton is my favorite album ever. Rivers' song writing was astonishing, and there wasn't a single song that I didn't love. And, I'm so sorry, I hated "In the Garage" (I know, im so sorry)
I'm pretty torn between liking this song and not liking it. It's catchy and I enjoy the simplicity of it but there's so much hate on it that I can kinda understand. Especially when it come to whatever the fuck River was doing at this time.
I find Lets get dangerous what this shouldve been. Lets Get Dangerous is just funnier to me... This song is not nearly as bad as I remember... just mediocre... enjoyable, but mediocre...
Put me in a special school cuz I am such a fool And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read Who needs stupid books? They are for petty crooks And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams So turn off the TV cuz that's what others see And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream They only sicken me, don't let me play football I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I picked up a guitar. What does this signify? I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs and you will die. You wanted arts and crafts. How's this for arts and crafts? Wuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- nuh- that's right! I'm growing out my hair. I'm moving out to Cherokee. I'm gonna be a rock star and you are gonna bear with me Cuz I can't work a job like any other slob Punchin' in and punchin' out and suckin' up to Bob Marryin' a beeyotch, havin' seven keeyods Givin' up and growin' old and hopin' there's a God. I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I'm gonna be a star and people will crane necks To get a glimpse of me and see if I am having sex And studying my moves, they try to understand Why I am so unlike the singers in the other bands. I'm such a mystery as anyone can see There isn't anybody else exactly quite like me And when it's party time, like 1999 I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy. I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doin' things my own way and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double-taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up
NOTE-The "Group Tour" To Miami In 1984 Was Composed Of 45 Elderly Chinese Tourists. They Visited Miami, Houston, New Orleans And Myrtle Beach. Then They Went Back To Singapore.
Fun Fact: The only world record that Weezer still holds from this video is 'Most People on a Skateboard', clocking in at 22 people.
I will get 23 people on a skateboard
If everyone who liked this comment was on a skateboard with you then you could break it lol
Can never just enjoi the musik
Are you sure they don't still have the "most controversial band" record still?
@@CasperVanderlyle actually I just checked right now and they still have it to this day
I never understood why people don't like troublemaker, it's one of the best songs on Red and is a perfect opener for the album
Because you are a troublemaker
It's prob because the lyrics are pretty silly and over the top and some people don't like Weezer songs like that but imo I think it's just a fun song and the production matches it
Because the lyrics are stupid and the music is boring
@@prometheustv6558 not everything has to be deep. they clearly werent trying to make it deep lmao
@@recreatio doesn’t make it less stupid
Yeah this song is underrated, people take this song like Rivers is serious, he isn’t... and that’s why I love Rivers.
Perfect comment
sometimes you gotta tell urself things to boost ur confidence that’s how this song is for me
So I just played it for my daughter to show her the song her brother used to dance to when he was a toddler. I thought man song is so funny/smart and fun, seems so underrated 😆 Always amazes me some ppl don't understand the humor in playing up an alter ego.

Wow, you have very broad definition of cholo clothes. He looks more like Mike Ness in the 90's.
I'd say more of a Freddie Mercury look

Yes!I agree🙋
It IS fantastic!

Thanks for doing it for me

+plzb0ss More like a name nazi. Because what you corrected wasn't grammar.

I love this more than the actual version just because it feels beautiful lol
I have a hard time imagining that Rivers would ever cause trouble intentionally.
Rivers is so unassuming, he typically speaks very gently and tries to be as kind as possible and then he steps on stage he turns in to a egomaniac rockstar. These lyrics are hilarious.
I love Weezer and this is there most underrated song.
The strangely small amount of views this epic song has is a disgrace to 3 things.
1) Music
2) Awesomeness
3) Awesome Music
I love how Rivers is trying everything and people underestimate the talent
This song is now my personal anthem.
I've had this song in my head for years without ever knowing what it was or who it was from.
Literally same

I always felt the Red Album was just a Dads Being Dads type of album, and I love it for that
Wow four years later and what you said was an actual skit on Saturday Night Live
“If you don’t like it, you can shove it. But you don’t like it, you love it.”

Right on
Favorite song of all time.
This song was epic when it came out. Decades later...still rocking it. 😎
These people broke 5 records in a music video. Its criminally underrated
Sorry, what records did it set?
I love the bridges
Rivers looks like he should be a character on Trailer Park Boys
He looks like he would try to steal Julian's trailer
I love you for making that comment!

Red album was crazy. This and everybody get dangerous exemplify that.
I started highschool as a freshmen when this was made seven years ago.
Fuck does time fly... Mr. Burkhart you were right, I miss being a kid so much.
Why? Kid don't have as much freedom as adults. Now you can go make money and live how you want.

@theMingst3r their song "Undone (the sweater song)" is actually about going insane and a guy who is depressed. Weezer's ability to appeal to a wide rage of emotions is one of the qualities that make them great.

“Having seven kiads” 😭😭😭
at least you acknowledge it being brainrot
its not...? /j

I'm pretty sure Rivers was being ironic with his alter ego.

You know what? I like your explanation much better. Rivers was going through a midlife crisis, I love it.

This is the most relatable song ever

I LOVE THIS SONG. My 15yo rocks this playing guitar.
I remember when they first came out, I had the Blue Album on tape. That album was awesome then and still is. I think I still got the tape somewhere in my closet
never heard this until 5 minutes ago. my new favorite song. like all classic Weezer tunes its got guitar hooks that would snare a 1k pound Swordfish.
one man's opinion..to which youre entitled. cheers anyway. still a cool song.
He makes 'Biaattccch' really rhyme with 'kids' haha
I fucking love Weezer.
Rest in Rock forever
1:08 makes me giggle…😊
This is so underrated! Only 2.9mil views in 10 years??
I haven’t heard this song since I was like, 8 .. this just threw me I still remember how it goes
I love Weezer and although I love their older music more, I don't think their newer music is that bad. I don't get why everyone is hating on it
damn, this is really really good, kind of like pinkerton but has that smashingpumpkis style
Coolest song ever
man i love this band
Ok what other band makes a music video, just hangs and rocks out, and break records with their fans like i love this band lol

geez another great catchy song by weezer what a surprise wow such inovation wow wow

Listen to music because the music itself is good. RHCP is my all time favorite, but Weezer is amazing too. This particular song is like my theme song.
