Amazing version of this song I wish we got a professional recording of this song with Rivers vocals. also did anyone else notice that he switched from saying "He" to She"
I just tuned my guitar to try and play with this (like always eb tuning with weezers first album which taught me how to play guitar) and as i was doing it i realized its the same chords to island in the sun
Lots of Weezer songs use that progression at some point; Pink Triangle, Do You Wanna Get High?, Mykel & Carli, and Tragic Girl (I think) are some other examples.
it's Em-Am-D-G, the bridge is B7-Cmaj7-(Am?)-D i put "?" after Am cuz i dont know the name of it but i'll explain B7 is like a B bar chord but remove your ring finger and pinky from the G string for Cmaj7 slide up to the C chord but put your middle finger on the 4th fret of the G string (Am?) is like an Am but remove your ring finger completely and put your pinky on the 3rd fret of the high e string, this is also the chord he plays in Butterfly when he says "the ghost slips away"
Help the one with the girl singinf this reminds me of a girlbosss, this versiom remimds of a malewife (sorry ifm i have bad gramnar and kinda bad spelking its 1 am r n😊)
i listened to blue album and pinkerton religously throughout high school. Weezer got me through alot of tough times.
Same here man, especially with girl problems
Weezer caused girl problems for me lol
@@p504504LMAO
Damn how old are you LMAO
Weezer honestly made me feel like it was okay to be a loser throughout high school 🚶🏻

I swear he says "he" throughout the song
edit:nvm I listened further into the song
The demo version is rivers being gay
@@Meleedroit normal rivers
weezer: trans rights edition
hes rivers cuomo not rivers homo
"I'm so low, can't get under me..." 😞
it got turned straight during the buffering
I love this song!!! Why isn't it more popular?
It was a b-side
Could not agree with you more!
but why the heck was it a b side?
@@ivand.4177 Quite a lot of Weezer's really good songs (especially recently) are notoriously put as B sides for some reason
@@ivand.4177 It's was more sensitive and scrapped for being apart of a previous project.
This version is much more somber and mellow in which I also like, wish there's tabs for the guitar here
I know im late but this is so beautiful
Words cannot describe the beauty
he glitched out halfway through and turned straight
I just realised lol

No fucking way@@aidanhickey9845
I hate that it cuts out because I love this version so much

@@Thanatossssx can you upload it?
Please upload it! @@Thanatossssx
RIVERS IS A LIVING LEGEND.
A beautiful falsetto
Thank you rivers, you truly are such a talented musician
high-pitched rivers
RIVERS IS SO PRECIOUS
PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS!!!!
Awesome I've been looking for a good acoustic version of this song forever and who better than the man himself
His singing is heavenly in this version
I love rivers
It's clear even the older, staid Rivers Cuomo remembers how he used to be somewhere during the middle of this song.
it's Em-Am-D-G, the bridge is B7-Cmaj7-(Am?)-D
i put "?" after Am cuz i dont know the name of it but i'll explain
B7 is like a B bar chord but remove your ring finger and pinky from the G string
for Cmaj7 slide up to the C chord but put your middle finger on the 4th fret of the G string
(Am?) is like an Am but remove your ring finger completely and put your pinky on the 3rd fret of the high e string, this is also the chord he plays in Butterfly when he says "the ghost slips away"
The last chord is called Am7
wickkidda Man he has really used that i-iv-VII-III chord progression A LOT.
no other one, island in the sun, I just threw out the love of my dreams, idk if there are any more@@Carlos-ln8fd
1/2 step down?
@@beefwellington69 yeah all his songs are half step down
edit: the lyric isn't "the ghost slips away" it's "there it goes slips away"
best song ever!!!!
just got this on my recommended and i got chills... i love this so much :)
I personally prefer Rivers singing this song with this seemingly gentler approach with his acoustic
I must have listened to this ten times in a row now.
"Oh she's got me wondering" You have my heart at that point!
wooooowwwwww never before have I felt this way
Love this song!
love rivers voice
so true also basil pfp
i love this man.
This gave off a Paul Simon esq. vibe for me. Awesome song and version
thank you mr. cuomo for everything
I'd kill for the tabs to this version.
I still want the tabs for this.
Its easy
@@formally727 Look them up on guitartabs, i just posted them.

Another song that has arrived from the black hole
i just posted the real chords in a reply to someone else, unfortunately i'm not uber enough to tab the lead part
i love you rivers
Damn.
where does he live? a storage closet on a cargo ship?
why is rivers cuomo making a cover of his own song?
Cause he didn’t sing the majority of the first version
over for me
Hey Rivers I’ll be 40 on the sixth, been listening to you for 26 years, can you do me a version without the blip? Thanks, yo:p
Can anyone figure out tabs for the beginning?
=w= has my
only 2 comments? messed up.
Butterfly
Bro this isn't butterfly
I wonder if there's a version out there with no cut
hopefully but since this is so old I kinda doubt it
nvm dude I just found a full version
it’s in a video called “Weezer Ustream Japan day 2” by Astonadada

Is there anyone else
