Weezer has so many great songs! They also have some great videos that are fun and unique and will make you smile like: 'Hash pipe', 'Pork and Beans', 'Keep Fishin', and 'Dope Nose!
Hugh Hefner purchased the Playboy mansion way back in 1970. He only paid $2 million for it. At the time of his death the house has been appraised at over $195 million. A billionaire bought the house and he’s renovating it that he bought the house when Hefner was still alive and the deal was Hugh Hefner could live there for the rest of his life so I guess the man restored the mansion to the way it used to look, which is really nice. And yes, Weezer is always making good music and their videos are very funny and very entertaining.
Not sure why, but I can't think of Weezer without thinking of Presidents of the USA. They have a similar style of nerd rock that is intertwined in my mind. The 3 Presidents of the USA songs that live in the back of my mind are Peaches, Lump, and Kitty. I think you guys may enjoy them, totally 90's alternative worth checking out! Love y'all!
PS. If you love Weezer, and good people love Weezer, you might really enjoy 'OK GO' who basically make some of the coolest videos ever made. "Jimmy Eat World' is another great band that has that Weezer vibe also.
I loved Weezer as a young kid, and Still love them as an adult. Rivers Cuomo has such a satisfying vocal tone, This whole band just sounds like California
Could consider reacting to more 90s acts like - Beck - loser, where it’s at, devil’s haircut, new pollution, lost cause, think I’m in love, saw lightning; Everclear - wonderful, I will buy you a new life, am radio, father of mine; Cake - the distance, never there, I will survive, love you madly, short skirt/long jacket; Dandy warhols - bohemian like you, we used to be friends; Modest mouse - float on; semisonic - f.n.t.
Hash Pipe! Gotta listen to Hash Pipe! First time I heard that I work in EMS ...and my partner and I were up front..he was driving and Hash Pipe came on and I was like "Who is this?". He smiled and said "Weezer!!". I said "Well turn it up!!"hahaha. We were riding around in our ambulance jamming! 😂
Just saw The Femmes last Sunday. Its the 40th anniversary of the debut album. First song they played was Blister In The Sun and everybody went nuts. Great show by a great band. The pride of Wisconsin !
Weezer is one of those bands that have stood the test of time. They've been at it since the 90s and they are still going strong! They just have the "It" factor! "Say it Ain't So" has to be your next one. It's an anthem of the late 90s!
I thought of a song I think you both would enjoy with the same fun vibe as this. It’s called Popular by Nana Surf. Alway love your reactions! Much love and smiles robsquad family ♥️
Not too long ago, there was a great back-and-forth between Weezer and the band Toto. Weezer had a hit with their remake of the song "Africa." Toto thanked them by doing a video cover of the song "Hash Pipe"
OK, my mind is literally blown right now. 🤯 I just looked up the lyrics and that part of the chorus is saying, "gimme gimme," while this entire time I thought it was, "baby do me!" 🤦😂
Yeah actually I thought she was saying "do me do me"! AND for some reason I thought I saw a video once where there was a girl that was lip-syncing those words when that part came on!!😮
My sons r major fans of Weezer and introduced me to their music when their Blue Album came out. Was an instant fan. So fun. Thanx so much, stay groovy, Peace
Listening to this as an almost 40 yr old hits different. This stuff was at the top of the charts in its time. Teens & people 25 and under would probably see a band named Weezer as “uncool” but they were everything.
The female voice in there is a sample of Paris Hilton calling her lap dog "Timmy". It was sampled from her old TV show. Some lyric videos mistakenly caption the voice as saying "Gimme".
The 90s baby!! So great to see Jay loving a 90s song!! The guitars sounded different because they’re tuned down a lot lower then normal, and they’re using a “wah wah” pedal. ❤ you both!!
The 'warped' effect was Rivers Cuomo using the 'wah-wah pedal'. The pedal is kind of spring loaded and when mashed by the guitar player creates a sort of "wah" sound.
I've seen them twice in concert over the last 4 years. Once was at a local music festival, and the second was at Hershey Park. They were touring for the Hella Mega Tour with Green Day. My youngest likes both bands as well (she is 21 now). The concert in Hershey was her 18th birthday present. They are such fun in concert. Yes, those of us around 50 still go to concerts🤣. God Bless 🥰
I remember the weekend after this came out, rolling up in this party with 3 girls dancing to it standing up in the back of my really lifted Jeep with the top off in Virginia Beach… good times for sure….
What I love about this video is when Hefner said, don’t bring too many dudes, Weezer brought all their nerd friends, those who don’t belong. It was GREAT!
I got to work for Playboy back in the 1990's helping with their website in the early 90's. I also did some photography work for them (not the women! hahahaha) but I got invited to a few parties. I am like Weezer said "I don't stand a chance, it is something you are born into". I had an incredible time but there comes a time when security sweeps through the mansion grounds and all of us that did not stand a chance was escorted out and those left is when the really crazy stuff happens is all I can guess as I saw some of it already starting as the majority of us were sent home.. BUT it was not till 3 am or so for a party that started about 6pm. Amazing experience. And on another note we were comped rooms in some of the nicest hotels in Beverly Hills and had limo buses shuttle us back and forth. Incredible era.. and one more note, Hugh Hefner can meet you once and remember your name.
Amber & Jay, here are some other great Weezer songs to react to: "Hash Pipe", "The Good Life", "My Name Is Jonas", "In the Garage", and "Only in Dreams".
This was a cool video to be part of...most of the people in the video are just Weezer fans aside from the Band, Hef & Playmates of course. This was shot at the Playboy Mansion which isn't in Beverly Hills :D. I remember we had to park our cars a few blocks away and then take a shuttle to the Mansion. Cool times
Weezer is one of those bands that must have grown up listening to their parents' music because while they make the sound their own they also pay tribute to the music that came before them.
The Playboy Mansion is not in Beverly Hills but in one of the many upscale neighborhoods on the Westside (BH is on the Westside). But BH is the image most people have of what is rich ... if you do not live in the area. Part of it is "rich" but most is not or just the business district.
another great alt rock band from the 90's that you haven't yet gotten to is Dada from Santa Barbara Cali....with hits like Dizz Knee Land, Dim, Dorina, Here today gone tomorrow, all from the album "Puzzle",please have a loook ,you will enjoy....
I’ve been to Graceland since it’s been turned into a tourist attraction but I don’t think the Playboy Mansion is accessible to anyone other than stars. Now since Hugh passed away I’m not sure anyone can go there but I’m waiting and hoping one day they turn it into an attraction also. I’d love to visit that place and see the grotto.
One of my dance partners was a model who used to get invited to Hefner's mansion for movie screenings back in the '80s. There were always celebrities there, but she said she and her gal pal would go for the movie and the free food and then sneak off to swim in the pool. :o)
When my oldest son was 3 I heard him singing this to himself while he was playing alone in his room. ❤️ I wish we had cameras that could record back then! We listened to Weezer all the time in the car. He had their songs memorized. 😆
Thanks for bringing these guys back! Hard to go wrong with the Weez. Although I'm more a fan of their classic stuff (The "Blue" and "Pinkerton" albums) I also like their later hits too like this one. Next, you gotta go with "Hash Pipe" and then I'd say "Pink Triangle" after that.
Been a few Months… keeping the Weezer Music Alive! How about Pork & Beans, or (If You’re Wondering If I Want You to) I Want You To. BOTH outstanding Weezer songs.
“Hash Pipe” and “Say It Ain’t So” have GOT to be next! My two faves of theirs, and I think you’ll like them as well. Definitely with the official videos, of course.
LOL...Amber....It's Undone (The Sweater song). Come Undone was Duran Duran, which is another great song if you haven't checked that out yet. I'll be searching after this because I love the reactions you guys do. Keep up the awesome work, stay true to yourselves, and you'll never go wrong.
You guys just watched American Psycho and now are watching a video that you had no idea Hugh Hefner was in. It's a beautiful thing when you realize how nature threads like to like.
My guy…welcome to the wonderful world of Weezer! They are still making music today, but their Blue Album and Pinkerton from he early days are classics.
Suggestions for Reactions: Chevelle: The Red, Send The Pain Below, Comfortable Liar, Closer. Three Days Grace: Riot, Animal I’ve Become, I Hate Everything About You, Home. 30 Seconds To Mars (Jared Leto): The Kill, A Beautiful Lie.
You guys are going to love the riff and the heavier sound of Hash Pipe by Weezer
HASH PIPE!
Ya I'll play HASH PIPE specifically during the day for motivation
Hash pipe, indeed 🔥✌️
ooh I 2nd Hash Pipe!
Yes, the next Weezer song should be Hash Pipe, epic song. Or Basket Case by GREEN DAY.
Weezer rules! You need to do "Say it Ain't So" off the Blue album. Off this same album for this song "Perfect Situation" is fantastic.
They did Say It Ain't So already. 🙂
Perfect Situation is fantastic. They should do that next.
I love Weezer! My favorite song by them is "Say It Aint So"
Weezer has so many great songs! They also have some great videos that are fun and unique and will make you smile like: 'Hash pipe', 'Pork and Beans', 'Keep Fishin', and 'Dope Nose!
Hugh Hefner purchased the Playboy mansion way back in 1970. He only paid $2 million for it. At the time of his death the house has been appraised at over $195 million.

I think you guys would like Cake. My favorite is Girl with a short skirt in a Long Jacket. Tge guitar work and the voice is fire.
It's just "Short Skirt/Long Jacket"
Cake is only one of two bands I've seen three times. They can go at least a dozen songs deep
Not sure why, but I can't think of Weezer without thinking of Presidents of the USA. They have a similar style of nerd rock that is intertwined in my mind. The 3 Presidents of the USA songs that live in the back of my mind are Peaches, Lump, and Kitty. I think you guys may enjoy them, totally 90's alternative worth checking out! Love y'all!
Peaches!
And LUMP!
@@sf0tacticalguy
Volcano and Mach 5 are also really fun songs as well.
I love Weezer so much. The entire debut album for POTUSA is amazing. Volcano, Mach 5, and F*ck California, too. Long live Nerd Rock!
PS. If you love Weezer, and good people love Weezer, you might really enjoy 'OK GO' who basically make some of the coolest videos ever made. "Jimmy Eat World' is another great band that has that Weezer vibe also.
OK GO they would enjoy for their inventive videos alone. I second this. Jimmy Eat World also rocks.
OKGO! but they have to start from the beginning to see their progression as a band and as video creators :)
Yes! I absolutely agree!! Their videos are awesome!!!
I love how OK Go's videos progress from several treadmills in a room to some NASA level shit lol
Jimmy Eat World "has the Weezer" ? Ugh....no.
Their covers of "Africa" and "Take On Me" are absolutely incredible!!
I remember Reel Big Fish doing "Take On Me" but don't know if I heard Weezer doing it.
@@O_Towne_Bear in the video, they have Finn Wolfhard of "Stranger Things" and his former band, Calpurnia, acting as the performers of the song.
@@RoGueNavy will have to look it up, thx
I loved Weezer as a young kid, and Still love them as an adult. Rivers Cuomo has such a satisfying vocal tone, This whole band just sounds like California
He has a really cool sounding name too. Rivers Cuomo. It just melts off of the tongue.
Could consider reacting to more 90s acts like - Beck - loser, where it’s at, devil’s haircut, new pollution, lost cause, think I’m in love, saw lightning; Everclear - wonderful, I will buy you a new life, am radio, father of mine; Cake - the distance, never there, I will survive, love you madly, short skirt/long jacket; Dandy warhols - bohemian like you, we used to be friends; Modest mouse - float on; semisonic - f.n.t.
I second that. Everclear, CAKE and Beck are Essential 90's.
I had also suggested Everclear -AM Radio ❤❤ they will love it!
Beck!! All you have to say!! 🔥
Yay!
Weezer!
My fav Weezer song is Say it Ain’t So.
Weezer are not a ska band.
Speaking of ska, you should listen to Same Old Song, by the Pietasters.
Weezer is the BEST!!!!!...This is a cool song...my favorite song is "Buddy Holly"
Hash Pipe! Gotta listen to Hash Pipe! First time I heard that I work in EMS ...and my partner and I were up front..he was driving and Hash Pipe came on and I was like "Who is this?". He smiled and said "Weezer!!". I said "Well turn it up!!"hahaha. We were riding around in our ambulance jamming! 😂
Weezer was a quirky band. Another similar group was Violent Femmes. You should do a reaction to their song, "American Music."
I'd prefer they do "Blister In The Sun"
Love Violent Femmes!!
Just saw The Femmes last Sunday. Its the 40th anniversary of the debut album. First song they played was Blister In The Sun and everybody went nuts. Great show by a great band. The pride of Wisconsin !
I've loved the Femmes since Blister In the Sun!
@@rogerdaly6326 - "Gone Daddy Gone" is another fan favorite.
'Say It Ain't So' is a MUST for a Weezer song.
Weezer is one of those bands that have stood the test of time. They've been at it since the 90s and they are still going strong! They just have the "It" factor! "Say it Ain't So" has to be your next one. It's an anthem of the late 90s!
I needed a little Weezer in my day. And an outstanding pick in "Beverly Hills!"
Thanks for making my day a lot nicer 👍
I thought of a song I think you both would enjoy with the same fun vibe as this. It’s called Popular by Nana Surf. Alway love your reactions! Much love and smiles robsquad family ♥️
Popular by Nada Surf is AWESOME!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Not too long ago, there was a great back-and-forth between Weezer and the band Toto. Weezer had a hit with their remake of the song "Africa." Toto thanked them by doing a video cover of the song "Hash Pipe"
This is probably my favorite Weezer song.. an instant classic!
“Perfect Situation” is my favorite Weezer song
OK, my mind is literally blown right now. 🤯 I just looked up the lyrics and that part of the chorus is saying, "gimme gimme," while this entire time I thought it was, "baby do me!" 🤦😂
Yeah actually I thought she was saying "do me do me"! AND for some reason I thought I saw a video once where there was a girl that was lip-syncing those words when that part came on!!😮
I LOVE WEEZER!!! This song is so cool to lay while cruising down your hometown's main drag! Thanks Rob Squad for rocking my day again!
One of my favorite songs of theirs and so is the "sweater song, pork and beans, buddy holly
For me, I like Pork and Beans, Buddy Holly, and Hash Pipe.
My sons r major fans of Weezer and introduced me to their music when their Blue Album came out. Was an instant fan. So fun. Thanx so much, stay groovy, Peace

Wasn't the 90's but still a great song!!! ❤
@@parileseadams 2005?? 😱😱😱😱 wow
The 'warped' effect was Rivers Cuomo using the 'wah-wah pedal'. The pedal is kind of spring loaded and when mashed by the guitar player creates a sort of "wah" sound.
This is fantastic, but my favorite Weezer songs are "Hash Pipe" and "The Sweater Song".
7:19 that’s correct! It is in fact a talk box, just like what Peter Frampton used on his live album Frampton Comes Alive
I've seen them twice in concert over the last 4 years. Once was at a local music festival, and the second was at Hershey Park. They were touring for the Hella Mega Tour with Green Day. My youngest likes both bands as well (she is 21 now). The concert in Hershey was her 18th birthday present. They are such fun in concert. Yes, those of us around 50 still go to concerts🤣. God Bless 🥰
I would blast this song when I was in high school I love this song and really love Weezer
My sons band play this an dedicate it to their Mom!! Me! Love this!❤️
Love you guys! Weezer does a pretty good cover of Toto's Africa too.
I was just going to say the same thing.
Would LOVE to hear That One!
Nooooo 😂
@@sharoncrews9442 I'd give them the chance to see their take. :)
Pork and Beans is my theme song😊 I saw them live, Rivers is adorable!
I will always hold a place in my heart for early 2000s alt-rock; this band is amazing; so glad you all enjoyed it.
I've loved Weezer since 1993. Awesome band!
And yes, that was Rivers playing talk box.
Say it Ain't So is my favorite Weezer song
I love "(If you wonder if I want you to) I Want You To" . Great Weezer song.
This kinda reminds me of "Lifestyles of the rich and Famous" by; Good Charlotte. Same kind of premise of wanting to live like a celebrity etc.
She's saying, "Give it to me"
I remember the weekend after this came out, rolling up in this party with 3 girls dancing to it standing up in the back of my really lifted Jeep with the top off in Virginia Beach… good times for sure….
Always been relatable, always been my fave Weez.
What I love about this video is when Hefner said, don’t bring too many dudes, Weezer brought all their nerd friends, those who don’t belong. It was GREAT!

Amber & Jay, here are some other great Weezer songs to react to: "Hash Pipe", "The Good Life", "My Name Is Jonas", "In the Garage", and "Only in Dreams".
This song I can take it leave by them. El Scorcho was always my favorite single by them.
Buddy Holly and Beverly Hills are my two absolute favourites
CAKE? Short Skirt and a Long Jacket and/or Stickshifts and Safteybelts
Jay would love "The Distance" by CAKE, it's the ultimate driving song.
The greatest man that ever lived the live version
This was a cool video to be part of...most of the people in the video are just Weezer fans aside from the Band, Hef & Playmates of course. This was shot at the Playboy Mansion which isn't in Beverly Hills :D. I remember we had to park our cars a few blocks away and then take a shuttle to the Mansion. Cool times
Fun fact: Weezer was the only band allowed to film a music video at The Playboy Mansion.
Weezer - (If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To
Y'all should listen to Say It Ain't So by Weezer
You are correct about the guitar effect,on the album it's a talkbox; live it's a wah/filter.
Weezer is one of those bands that must have grown up listening to their parents' music because while they make the sound their own they also pay tribute to the music that came before them.
The Playboy Mansion is not in Beverly Hills but in one of the many upscale neighborhoods on the Westside (BH is on the Westside). But BH is the image most people have of what is rich ... if you do not live in the area. Part of it is "rich" but most is not or just the business district.
The voice is modeled after Steve Miller Band's 'The Jocker.'
"Can't Stop Partying" will blow J's doors off.
The song speaks the truth. Nothing like strolling BH. Weezer makes the coolest videos. Guys, might want to try “Perfect Situation”. Good one.
This is the first song I learned to play on my bass. Super simple but so much fun. Glad you did this one!
I MIGHT AS WELL ENJOY MY LIFE AND WATCH THE STARS PLAY! "BEVERLY HILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ROCK AND ROLL!
You guys have GOT to check out Weezer’s “Keep Fishin”! The fun they must have had making the video is written all over their faces. One word: Muppets!
"Whats it called? The Playboy House?"
...................well played sir.
another great alt rock band from the 90's that you haven't yet gotten to is Dada from Santa Barbara Cali....with hits like Dizz Knee Land, Dim, Dorina, Here today gone tomorrow, all from the album "Puzzle",please have a loook ,you will enjoy....

I have a favorite Mashup. And it's Beverly Hills, I love Rock n Roll and We will Rock you.
It's fanomial . Lol
This was one of my favorite '90's band...in High School ...every morning MTV played "Buddy Holly", it was like my "wake-up" song. Love ya guy's!
One of my dance partners was a model who used to get invited to Hefner's mansion for movie screenings back in the '80s. There were always celebrities there, but she said she and her gal pal would go for the movie and the free food and then sneak off to swim in the pool. :o)
I just saw Weezer live a month ago and this was the first song they played. They were amazing
“Greatest Man Who Ever Lived” is another great one in this style.
Weezer- my name is Jonas
Such a fun song.
Weezer - Hash Pipe! A must
This group is so fun!
Other great Weezer songs you should do next.
Say It Ain't So
Pork and Beans
My Name Is Jonas
When my oldest son was 3 I heard him singing this to himself while he was playing alone in his room. ❤️ I wish we had cameras that could record back then! We listened to Weezer all the time in the car. He had their songs memorized. 😆

Awesome. My fave by them…
The solo is "talk box" for shizzle.
Such a fun song!!
Next you should check out Hash Pipe or In The Garage!!! I've seen Weezer play live three times, they just rock.
Say It Ain't So is often considered weezers best song.
Been a few Months… keeping the Weezer Music Alive!
How about Pork & Beans, or (If You’re Wondering If I Want You to) I Want You To. BOTH outstanding Weezer songs.
I wish I can hear all these songs for the first time again. Love your reactions.
A fairly recent song I enjoy by Weezer is “Happy Hour.” Okay maybe it’s 5 years old, but still fresh in my mind.
“Hash Pipe” and “Say It Ain’t So” have GOT to be next! My two faves of theirs, and I think you’ll like them as well. Definitely with the official videos, of course.
Senior year of high school! Bumping it through the parking lot in my truck! In Texas! LOL
LOL...Amber....It's Undone (The Sweater song). Come Undone was Duran Duran, which is another great song if you haven't checked that out yet. I'll be searching after this because I love the reactions you guys do. Keep up the awesome work, stay true to yourselves, and you'll never go wrong.
You guys just watched American Psycho and now are watching a video that you had no idea Hugh Hefner was in. It's a beautiful thing when you realize how nature threads like to like.
Great Great song.
One of my favorites! ❤️
Metal rockers. "Primal Scream" Motley Crue "Rock you like a hurricane" Scorpions "Fantasy" Alda Nova "Don't dog me " Raging Slab
Believe it or not, this is the first song of Weezer I've listened to & it's still good!
My guy…welcome to the wonderful world of Weezer! They are still making music today, but their Blue Album and Pinkerton from he early days are classics.
Love this song, check out "Pork and Beans" "El Scorcho", "Say it Ain't So" "Hashpipe"
