[singaporiancrimelord]

Rivers Cuomo: Nearly as talented in soccer as he is a musician. Now that's saying something! lol

[FleeceLiner]

You're cool.

[Lpfreak21]

Rivers is my inspiration in all I try to succeed. I can relate to him so much, and when I'm feelin' down, Rivers is there for me :)

Thank you Rivers for your amazing talent!

[Freestuff9er]

Great song

[x911oz]

nice goal dude, did you nutmeg him? that probably felt great. like the time i made my only layup ever in a basketball game in 8th grade.

[jwilson19294]

he looked offsides lol

[Cunctando]

He's not too bad for an American boy; fantastic song.

[q0rkie]

im sorry rivers but ur still my favourite band

[FenderJagPlayer97]

great song, great vid. and the pictures are really cool

[OcAirlines]

Credits to the lady giving the assist on his goal ;).

But awesome song and video... Soccer is just so great, as is Rivers and his music and lyrics!

[dragog999]

best video ever; i've playin soccer since i was four; rivers pwns at soccer and stuff

[dragog999]

SOCCER and WEEZER PWN

[ebrewer2224]

its cool you got to fulfill your dream in some at least

[WeezerChickForever]

I love this song so much. To me, it sounds quite soothing.

[halvey18]

My new favorite video, the things I would do to be in that soccer game...nice one timer.

[dragonshine123]

Rivers is da man, =w=

[JibbyKills]

I wish I could write poppy lyrics like this.

[Couchptato10]

I gotta hand it to you Rivers. You got some mad soccer skills haha. Nice video.

Kevin Lara.

[ItsLonelyInNotOnlyIn]

Not trying to sound awful in anyway, but I think things turned out well just the way they went.

Thanks for the passion, and the mistakes Rivers :) You've helped us all.

[ianclap]

26 is now my favorite number.

[dragog999]

same

[NesPlayer88]

Rivers is the man.  =W=

[ianclap]

Yes he is.

[zimmerman6565]

My two sons (8&5) just watched the video of their favorite singer Rivers, from "The Weezers", playing their favorite sport. What a cool guy.

[Kimbercakes]

i really like this song and the story behind it. kudos rivers.

[mark1800]

did he ACTUALLY add canned laughter to his own goal sequence?

wow rivers. please tell me you're joking.

[jammyninja]

I think seeing as it's a home movie, the actual sound is faded in and back out again, with a little bit of editing to extend said cheers. Don't take things so seriously.

Cool video, Rivers has such a sincerity to his speech.

[jiajia2091]

way to go Rivers... follow your dreams! you ROCK~

[allycat114]

rivers really cares about his fans

[weezywee9891]

i agree, and we love him back. :)

[ChrisDaKineVids]

was that tony hawk on the blue team somewhere? lol

[drew5211]

yah it was lol

[maruz89]

<33

[Pischoul]

;) cuomo is a modern chaplin xD

[caribousale]

Good goal! One more point!

[stringbean1212]

this reminds me of anthony keidis his story is like just without the drugs

[SoulMusic121]

...and the talent.

[messiahpal]

This reminded me of "Rocky".

[RoBotPinK]

i loooooooooooove youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!

<3

[zorinkima]

whats the name fo the song?

[JonasBridgous]

Are you an idiot?

[lycanthrope79]

lol

[MusicMan6758]

rivers cuomo is just amazing. he has inspired me to write music and share with my friends, even if the music only makes sense to me. his lyrics may not be suitable for everyone, some look over, but for me, all his songs have meaning. my friends think im weird for listening to this guy, during my classes and when i get a chance, but i just think he's amazing. rivers, never stop doing what you do. you're an inspiration to all, and seeing you score that goal shows the world anythings possible.

[MusicMan6758]

[GraxMasterPlan]

it makes me cry...i finally found what i was looking for..

[ericisbeastin]

Haha he stole that goal from the person right next to him.

[Hatham]

Now if only he would sign for Leeds United :/

[riot538]

this song makes me want to cry every time I listen to it. It's so beautiful, the lyrics and the way he sings them are so powerful. The simplicity of the repetitive guitar riff, claps, and background vocals are breathtaking. my favorite weezer OR rivers song. well done.

on the soccer front, i never knew this. i too was so happy when you scored that goal :)

[SpinBuck]

The video may be inspirational, but I don't get how you guys are claiming the song is. His girlfriend cheated on him with his friend....in the snow. Not too uplifting i'd say. One of the saddest songs i've heard actualy.

[weezerbh]

it's fictional

[SpinBuck]

how would that matter?

[weezerbh]

It didn't really happen. Why would someone become sad over something made up?

[SpinBuck]

So you're saying a movie/ song has never made you cry?

One of art's main purposes is to stir up emotion.

Thaw your icy veins

[weezerbh]

let's just agree that it's a great song

[ninjamittens]

this is not fictional, this is rivers life story.

his LIFE IS NOT A LIE!!

[nikkijunomel]

Man you r a musician and a wicked soccer player you can achive so much success anywhere you look you have an amazing voice and an amazing passion for everything you attempt. what an insperation! Great song . Great goal. i love you man sometimes you bring tears to my eyes . never stop.

[eltristo66]

I would nominate him for best vocalist ever.... invented, because he's too good to be born.

[gazzahynes]

This is the best video on youtube!

[pleasemallorie]

wow....

i did not expect this

this is wonderful! i love ALONE

especially this song

catchy and quirky - as I'm sure this has been called before...

not to mention, pure, true, and uplifting.

-]

thanks, rivers!!!!!

[iggyubu]

I almost cried when you scored that goal. Glad you got to do what you always wanted to.

[ChrisMiecznikowski92]

i did, and i got chills through my whole body

[jonahjones87]

Videos that are as heartfelt and optimistic as this particular one make youtube really worthwhile. It's a shame this site is home to much sadism and negativity, yet I feel this video helps to address the balance.

A reflection of life in general maybe.

[cjpcaleb]

rivers is an inspiration. you are a good guy rivers, i love you and weezer and good job playing soccor, you are pretty good, keep it up man!

[C0leman]

and he scores a goal! very awesome...

[Jayney79]

Nice one Rivers. Very personal and what a great goal!

[dkxcalibur]

Wow, this meant a lot to me. Thanks.

I was thinking about walking away from the sport for a break and then I watched this out of complete total luck.

[joshamu]

i can't put into words why i love soccer

this video comes closest, thank you mr. cuomo

[coreygreenlol]

awesome

[BraydenADewar]

great song

[rtkiiiprod]

[juanoasis]

Excelent video and song!! Rivers come to Argentina!! we love weezer here. Aguante Maradona, Lio Messi, Riquelme and Tevez

[newjokeaccount]

[willschollar]

[wvcguimaraes]

Rivers is so real, impressive!

[Newryan21]

[cyndarious]

There's nothing like playing soccer, man... this video is beautiful, and Rivers, i'm sure you're an amazing person.

[BlackMCRHearts3]

You go Rivers!

[mishiellie77]

you are so awesome Rivers!

[lpdoubled]

As usual, I am an admirer from afar due to your brutal honest and your ability to share in ways that make thoughts beautiful.

[4229hefe]

very class goal rivers

[trzeppelinz]

i love how this song carries such a vibe of nostalgia, which im sure is how you had to feel about that soccer opportunity - this is beautiful, i had to also stop playing competitively as a kid and bass guitar is my hobby now and im just an avid soccer fan :P - anyway, great song and great story rivers, keep rockin

[shucky]

Ride the lightning playa

[franciscoak]

hes cool!

[wiismasher]

[Kiorrik]

How'd it feel when u scored the goal? :)

Like the song btw.

[kinney1990]

Its nice to see an American who appreciates English football aswell =]

[Dekkino]

I romantizize about soccer

[bathrobeHearts]

Toluca WootWoot!

[T4T3RT0T5]

I love the riffs in this song. As well as everything else... Therefore making the song perfect... Ah... Love it!

[kovy274hart]

very inspiring and makes me realize anything's possible!

[imenthesly]

rivers, you're so rad.

[miket1m]

Groovy man

[ianclap]

I love soccer

[DragonBallBr]

[DragonBallBr]

RIVERS IS PELÉ !

[btbofthenwo]

You are truely an inspiration to us all, Rivers.

[DMSRsportcards]

GOD

[jesus13kuy2]

GOOOOO rivers and congratulations for you birthday 13 of jun heheheeh my birthday is 3 of jun hahah bye nice red album and

[dtidyman846]

i love it at the end when he scores the goal its my favorite part

[urlocalSAVAGE]

Perfect Situation has a really good solo also.

[urlocalSAVAGE]

Weezer is pretty awesome, Landon Donovan is pretty overrated, and everyone knows the best American soccer player is Jozy Altidore.

[bassmonkey122]

this song reflects a lot on some circumstances that I had 2 deal with  recently. it almost like this song was written about me.

thanx Rivers

[birdyboy6]

Gooooooooo! RIVERS!

[CyberMartyr]

Excellent man, glad you got to go after all of yoru dreams. I played soccer in grade school, I wasn't ever any good but what can you do.

[servitemike]

great song, great video. the struggle to compete in the event truly enhances the emotional struggle that is occuring within the song, and unlike most videos that detract from the musical experience, this one actually amplifies the euphoric feeling one gets when listening to it. But to put it simply, rivers cuomo, you rock!

[Galactiverse]

Great video. Very inspirational.

[Green057]

i bought pinkerton hard, pre-green album, so suck it

[fawsta]

Thank you Rivers, for the inspiration.

[nklslinde21]

did I see Tony Hawk on his Blue team?

[midleageisback]

yes it's him he's also a good guy really nice from them to collect money for those kids

[gnarkill93]

Yeah now everytime I see Rivers run around I just get worried hes hurting.

[kenohyama]

hes not that old

[Th3R3dFly]

it's not age, it's his leg

[anarchy0productions]

im sick of people always bitching, 'pinkerton this, pinkerton that' if you like pinkerton so much YOU SHOULD OF BOUGHT IT WHEN IT WAS OUT!!! they actual LOST MONEY on that album because you jerks didnt buy it.

btw

I DID BUY IT THEN, YOU GUYS DIDNT

just enjoy the music he makes now you cant expect him to just repeat the SAME formula as pinkerton again and again that would just be lame, Rivers, bud keep experimenting with youer music(red album = pure awsomeness)

[chriztee2020]

wow, this video is so inspirational. it almost made me cry. i wish i could give rivers a hug...

[thepuppetshowofdoom]

I have a new hero......River Cuomo.....you are officially my alltime hero

[deadloque]

It's Rivers.

[kingdev23]

Rivers scored a goal :)

[weezer40oz]

rivers is my all time hero! you gave me inspiration enough to move on and not call it quits. thanks man.

[Green057]

cman only a complete retard or someone who is too young to have a driver's license would say they're surprised that somebody hates new weezer. listen to more than 2 albums and you'll gain some perspective for why old weezer rules and TRA is mostly crap

[deadloque]

How dare you say ANY song is crap. I haven't heard one song that I didn't like. I hope you get struck by lightning.

[Sims2Director]

I honestly love Weezer, but I have to agree. Red Album's not all that good save 3 or 4 songs. I liked Green Album and Make Believe if you call that new Weezer, but Red is just...alright...

[Raikage9]

You picked their two worst records... they are both over produced crap that they wrote to get their record label off their backs. Just look at how much crap they got for the Red Album, they HAD to write Pork and Beans to shut them up. Rumor has it that their next album will be self produced so they don't have to take it from their label, and not have to write the crap that the idiots who listen to pop radio gobble up.

[freelancehero]

Green Album and Make Believe weren't that bad; each album was unique in their own way and all their albums had at least a few great songs. Although I will agree that there was a bit more of production in their latter albums, but that's not necessarily that bad a thing.

"Perfect Situation" from Make Believe has one of the best intros to a rock song I've ever heard; Rivers really knows how to emote with his guitar.

[Raikage9]

Yeah, I came off a little harsh, any Weezer is better than 99% of other music. Also there were a few really good songs on those albums(Island In The Sun, Photograph, Don't Let Go, Perfect Situation, Hold Me, even Beverly Hills reminded me of Buddy Holly), but I think overall they lacked the feeling any of their other albums had.

Perfect Situation is a pretty awesome song though, the intro kinda reminds me of Only In Dreams.

[DMSRsportcards]

ok, it seems then that u like more commercial weezer, that's ok, just saying

[Sims2Director]

Are you saying I like commercial Weezer? Because that would be a very incorrect statement. I think Pinkerton is honestly their best, however, when I was saying I also like Green and Make Believe, I was implying that there have been pretty good records from them since Blue and Pinkerton.

[Cman2daMax]

i meant to say that to Green057....who sucks bumhole

[mardih]

Rivers, your dad must be proud. The song reminds me of WI, only around here you fall in love in the leaves of autumn.

[Green057]

also, new weezer sucks anus

[Cman2daMax]

can't beleive u just said that..u suck anus

[rainingbricks]

who cares, rivers has like 3 good songs.

[2girls1street]

=w=

[cpatman86]

=w=

[commonenemy93]

damn.  inspirational. damn

[josephborderline]

Lol rivers, at 2:14 you look just like my uncle=))))

[roboboro]

i'm not even a fan of football soccer but i was happy for cuomo's score.

[CoreyRobertson2]

Rivers seems like such a cool and down-to-Earth person.

[Green057]

MLS sux, i enjoy a bit of the premiere league

[sirmarksalot]

premier league is too predictable for me. Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Man U.

I like MLS, because it's my country's league and i get to actually go to the games in person, and it's really not as bad as you think.

[Green057]

it looks pretty fucking bad on tv

[guitarworker]

Gooooool!!!!
