@kiwieata Well, it goes from from G-flat major in the happy sounding verse to E-flat minor for the sad chorus... which makes perfect sense since they have a harmonic relationship. Rivers has always been a very informed musician and composer. The other post might have meant to say "chord change", because there are some sweet ones... especially the solo which has yet another great set of changes! I have a video of me playing this if you are interested. On my channel.
The entire chord progession for this song is lifted directly from "Gigantic." The only difference is that Weezer plays with their guitars tunes down a half-step, and the Pixies had two extra chords:
World Has Turned: G, D, B-flat, C
Gigantic: G, D-E, B-flat, C-D
Just start singing the chorus of one song over the chorus of the other one, and it's obvious that (whether intentionally or not) Rivers really lifted most of this song from the Pixies.
you can say stuff like that for sooooo many songs. It still doesnt change the fact that the songs are different. The only time anyone is ripping someone off is if they actually copy the song.
yeah they have a similar chord progression, but the rhythm isnt the same and if u wanna pull that stuff there are thousands of chord progressions that are slightly different.
no, at the beginning it says the date, february 95 and TBA was in may of 94. plus brian is playing it and he wasnt around till they started recording.
My favorite song from the blue album indeed....nobody else likes it I always thought until I see your comments!!! I am not crazy YEAY!!!...GUYS CHECK out the Hard rock live version of this song....OMG IT ROCKS
no one else and in the garage are the best songs, only my opinion, but the song no one else and the world has turned.........belong together, its the same narrator rivers said this in an interview
AMAZING!!!!

This is probably my favourite Weezer song. And as for the Pixies "Gigantic" thing, who cares?
Those bands are too remarkable to even think of petty things like that. Just saying.
