      The whole song is a reference to the blue album. Back to the shack is referencing "In the Garage", he says he made up with his dad which is "Say it Ain't So", etc. It makes it a fun listen from the first time to the 100th time. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that line is why Rivers wrote the song in the first place, which is why this video for a song about getting back to the fundamentals is centered around that original context.

  • @reszzz
    @reszzz 8 ปีที่แล้ว +180

    Cuomo explained that the lyrics refer to how he feels bad for the direction the band has taken on some of their past material. He admitted that sometimes he "went over the edge". He explained his desire to create "a classic alt-rock record." The word "shack" serves as a reference to Amherst house, a home where some of the original Weezer members had lived and recorded a few of their demos. Lyrically, "Back to the Shack" deals with the theme of nostalgia and a wish to return "to [the band's] 1994 roots". Dave Lewis stated the song serves as a thematic continuation of two previous Weezer songs, "In the Garage" and "Memories". It also deals with Weezer's relationship with their fans and serves as "basically an apology for the past two decades and a promise to embrace their nerdy roots."[ The song's opening lines-"I'm sorry guys, I didn't realize that I needed you so much"-in particular reinforce this theme.

    Verse 1]
    Sorry guys, I didn't realize that I needed you so much
    I thought I'd get a new audience, I forgot that disco sucks
    I ended up with nobody and I started feelin' dumb
    Maybe I should play the lead guitar and Pat should play the drums
    [Chorus]
    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin' out like it's '94
    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go
    Back to the shack
    [Verse 2]
    I finally settled down with my girl and I made up with my dad
    Had to go and make a few mistakes so I could find out who I am
    I'm lettin' all of these feelings out even if it means I fail
    'Cause this is what I was meant to do and you can't put that on sale
    [Chorus]
    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin' out like it's '94
    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go
    Back to the shack
    Bridge]
    We belong in the rock world
    There is so much left to do
    If we die in obscurity, oh well
    At least we raised some hell
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Chorus]
    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin' out like it's '94

    I am unsure if i am correct but still. i find this video/song has a deeper, more awesome meaning. River's solo career really wasn't the most popular thing ever, and he never got close to enough success as his time in Weezer. The time where he gave up his friends because he thought he was better alone. He says " Back to the strat with the lighting strap" because he literally just decided against using his trademark strap. Also, the giant Weezer symbol coming, dusty and unused and buried. That rising into the sky and lighting up was representing the rise of Weezer and being just as good as ever.

    There's more thought in these songs than we've had in years. I'd say the quality of the melodies and riffs is on part with Green and Maladroit, but the "fine detail" that these songs were given gives them so much more of an OOMPH! They sound great. Rivers might have peaked years and years ago (all the greats do) but he's still capable of making great songs. Makes you wonder how much better the other post 96 albums would have been with a little more effort

      Now, yes, they would have the tech to fake it, not back then. But even now, there would still be weird/unrealistic things. The first moon landing is super accurate, even if a lot of people said it's not. Every conspiracy theories about the moon can be argued
