This is awesome! Its great to see the member of weezers having a sense of electronic music. In their own time in the 90's they were the ones setting the pophooks on the radio, and now they pick two of the most talented contemporary pop musicians and seamlessly blend them together in a live show. I'm thoroughly impressed.
K, I'm a huge MGMT fan, but I have to admit, weezer do this song better! The vocals and the fact that they are actually playing it live does count a bit
I always told myself i would blow my brains out if i ever had to listen to a lady gaga song but since its weezer i think i might put the shotgun away.
WoW! Hell yeah!!! Love Weezer!!! Been listening to a lot of Weezer, Hey You!, The Offspring, My Chemical Romance, No Doubt, and Silversun Pickups...
Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaaaaaay dope. Pop/Rock/Punk with a real cool edge. Plus they've got a cute chick singer :-) ...check em out....
@skdub101 , nothing happend to weezer, they are amazing ,they always have been amazing :) they just like trying new things! and i think they pull it off :)
This was one of my favorite bands in middle & High School! Been a fan for a long time! Now I am in my own band! Way to pave the way for us rockers! Love their carefree attitude… such inspiration!!! My band is female fronted pop/punk called HEY YOU! Not quite the same sound, but same vein... If any of you Weezer fans wanna give it a try, we recently put up a new music video... let us know what u think. Can we please play together!
@getup2727 Oh thanks man. Playing it back in retrospect i suspect you are right. LOL also looking back at my comment i look a bit like a troll just putting "AUTOTUNED?" in block capitals with no real explanation hahaha
@naomifullbloom93 Yeah, I'm with you. My guess is that you don't hear the crowd because they probably recorded directly using an interface rather than microphones that would pick everything up
what a hell happened to weezer? this is so fn depressing... If I went to a Weezer concert I'd like to listen to their music, their classics, not this shit! I like MGMT but if I want to listen to them I'd go to a MGMT gig!
@XFutureMrsJonesX I dont think you can get it because it was a once-off live thing. If you don't mind the talking bit at the start, you can just use youtubeconverter
lol? these aren't their songs. they just decided to mash up 2 good songs as a treat for the audience. I personally don't like lady gaga but I like weezer and its cool to see them bring their own style to it.
first time I've heard this. That's an awesome cover. I'm going to go purchase it from iTunes right now. In fact just done. Totally worth the 99 cents.
check my remix to MGMT's Kids, this song is def. dope in its own right and i wanted to try and do somethin different with it. All feedback, negative positive appreciated
man poker face and kids played on the same key! haha awesome transittion even though i hate mgmt for the horrible video theydid for that awesome song, and i hate lady gaga haha
fags. were's the good music that we had on the 90's? i just see lady gagas and justin bieber and shit like that but the most incredible thing is tht people like it. wtf???? I just want to say one thing "ac/dc, iron maiden, pink floyd, guns and roses, The offspring, Motorhead,No effects, system of a down, red hot chilli peppers and much more...."
THESE ARE GREAT BANDS WHITH GREAT MUSIC, BUT WHAT CAN I DO??
@20OKYAYAYAYAYA I think it's hilarious that you think most of those bands are from the 90's. AC/DC was done making good music at the end of 1980, as was Pink Floyd. Guns n' Roses went bad right after Use Your Illusion, System wasn't anything special until Toxicity in '02, Motorhead was pretty much only good in the 80's, and NOFX just kind of always sucked.
Good bands still exist. That's why recorded music is the shit.
Great cover, Weezer, may pick it up on iTunes in a few minutes.
if you try and argue about what bands and genras are better than your listening to music wrong. music is a form of entertainment, and when you argue about entertainment your probably not enjoying it unless your an argumentative dick. sure i get having pride in what you like, but when you create wars over it, your completely destroying the point of what your standing for.
