In 96-97 I was a senior in high school and it seemed like I was the only guy that had and listened to this CD, and people kept coming by my room to get a better listen to the tracks I was listening to from this album because they loved Weezer's blue album.
    For years I was under the impression that Pinkerton was my own secret album Weezer wrote just for me. lol No idea that other people even listened to this album let alone that it would one day become widely known as the best album they ever wrote.
