  • This is actually called Turnin' up the Radio, and it's on Death to False Metal. And I LOVE this song, new CD's full of great old school style like this.

  • Where can we download this song? It's not on Itunes.

  • @deanc2000 It's not officially out yet. It will be in 3 weeks on Death To False Metal, though.

  • This was on his "Lets write a sawng" project on youtube

  • I think it's hilarious how Rivers only gives Crunchy and ATS5 shoutouts in the song... Especially since this was about a 20 person project.

    Hell, Taylor2D2 recorded and sings in the backing track!

  • he's giving shout-outs to youtube users "crunchy" and "ats5" at the start of the video

  • i love this song!

    could of done without the unnecessary f word at the end though.

  • he might be saying funky? but i don't know.

  • I think he says "crunchy"

  • @crunchytoastpro jeez your problaly one of those fags that only listen to Buddy Holly and Island in the sun and shit... Seriously these guys have REAL music

  • @HitaroX actually no i listen to all their music. Rivers usually doesn't curse in his songs, I was just saying it's very unlike him.

  • Goddamn you half japanese girl...? remember that?

  • @crunchytoastpro He didn't say "fucking," he said "funky."

  • u know what missin from this? Matt sharp.

  • u know whats up dude...

    i couldnt agree more

  • dox522 blows goats, but yea I agree with yummsqi

  • we all live back in the golden era, where bottle of Stevens still awakens ancient feelings..sigh..

  • You're right. His average bass playing, octave harmonies, and crazy jumping around would have made this song forty times better...

    Oh wait.

  • i bet ur just some teen mtv-ish wannabe

  • lol What?

  • This was the song Rivers Cuomo did a "Let's write a Sawng"... so he made this song with a bunch of his fans

  • where can i get this from?? i fkin love this

  • i like this

  • i like the footage in the beginning

  • is this an "official" video? what is the footage from?

  • not my favorite....

  • wow that chorus with the turnin turnin part is really terrible...

  • sounds a little like mainstream pavement. i fucking love weezer and pavement!

  • haha two of my favorites

  • they said this wouldnt be on raditude. IMO, it would go really good. maybe it will be on alone 3? but he didnt make it "alone" so idk

  • it's supposed to be a B-side to one of the singles from raditude.

  • Oh man, thats amazing!

    The Pinkerton attitude with the with the Maladroit sound. Awesome.

  • really...more like a red album thing goin on

  • it was really 50/50 because the song could have turned out to be a piece of crap but obviously, everyone who put in really worked hard so congratulations to you guys. This is an amazing song. ( =

  • is it just me or does this sound like falling for you

  • This is not a new weezer song. False information. Its a youtube project collaboration song with rivers. get it right.

  • yeah, but who performs it i wonder?

  • its not by weezer. its a you-tube project by rivers, he sings it, but he didn't write it.

  • This isn't even a Weezer song, it's a colaboration between Rivers and a bunch of Youtubers (ATS5 who came up with the chords, CapNCrunchitize came up with the basic lyrics, Taylor2D2 who made the backing track and a lot of others contributed too)

    So no, this wouldn't be on the Red Album. In fact, the song hasn't been added to for months and we haven't heard any progress about it from Rivers.

  • yeah i do like your version better raistarr

  • I thought this would be bad, but i was wrong. its a little cheesy but weezer's a little cheesy(its part of their charm). i love his voice in the chorus.

  • yeah weezer didn't write the song. People from youtube did. The words, chords and everything...so...yeah...

  • This is just one of many demo revisions for the song written online between rivers & you tubers. This is not official, although it is probably the one that will sound the most to the final version. Cheers to all on this.

  • This is great! Congratulations to everybody who worked on the song, it's great!

  • man this song is good except where the lyrics are concerned

    come on, "let the good times roll"? oh well, it's ok for a collaboration

  • Rivers actually mentioned that lyric as being particularly cliche, and he said he liked how cliche and cheesy it was, and they decided to keep it.

  • Jackknife Lee didn't seem so impressed.

    Bullshit in my opinion. Everyone who worked on this did a spectacular job. Kuods all around.

  • my version is in the video responce

  • at the risk of sounding like a huge douche right now, i was in this collaberation and i truley believe my version was better

    p/s. i was first to make it rock!!!!

  • Ok, I am ready to buy this song now.

    Gimme, gimme!

  • i know that rivers played it for the recording studio guy, but idk if it's technically "out" yet. i hope it's on the new album, whenever that comes out. love it!

  • Love this song. The musically attuned fans did a great job of working with Rivers to make this. By the way, no official news about this song has been announced, but the logical thing would be for it to be on the next album, but who knows. I'm thinking their next record will come out next year. Anyways, sorry for the ranting, very awsome song and well made. Keep turning out these awsome songs dude!!!!

  • theres something extremely strange about this video.like how did this "weezerandriversfan" even get the mp3?seems to me like rivers created a sock account to get this song out lol

  • He posted parts of it on the lets write a sawng thing

  • So is the Lets write a Sawng thing finished?

  • jeffysplayhouse, your full of crap. where the hell did you hear that?

  • Btw, does anyone know the chords to this song?

  • wered u find that out?

  • [] [] U

    AWESOME!!!!

  • This is kind of like their old stuff, which is a VERY good thing.

    Blue and Pinkerton forever

  • @LPfanatic102 Derp.

  • dont know why but this song kinda reminds me of the mid 90s weezer songs its good

  • They are supposedly going to release a B Sides collection this year and this is going to be one of the new tracks featured on it (supposedly)

    Rivers said he would like to do that with it at least but its up to the band as a collective. I personally love this song.

  • What ever became of this song? Is this the final version?

  • /watch?v=yqaXH6uy3eQ

  • it needs better vid. quality

  • can you write the lyrics for us?

  • whyd u show the red album in the end, its not on the red album

  • the begining of the song kinda sounds like arcade fire

  • Oy, Lennon... No more color albums, get back to the blue album style and add this song on it... just add some guitar and drum jam solo, and it might be up to par with the old stuff

  • youre a retard. Lets try to forget you ever said that. Fairweather fan.

  • i want this song so bad on my ipod

  • Actually, it was originally called 80's radio but Rivers changed it to Turnin' turnin' later in the songs production

  • NOT a Weezer Song. It is however, River's project and a community song. You can't associate this a Weezer song, anymore than it is a Special Goodness song or a Rentals song. They weren't involved.

  • thats awesome

  • This song is not a "new" song, It's just a experiment that Rivers made to compose a song with help of fans and people in YouTube, so everybody helped with a little idea, a this is that result.

    By the way, this song's called 80's Radio.

  • actually its called "turn it"

  • The face that Rivers wrote this with fans is proof enough he's a musical genius...I mean fans are stupid...all they do is cool you and swing ;)

  • this song is better than anything off the red album

  • You should change the title of this video. It's not Weezer, it's just Rivers and his youtube pals. It's the Let's Write a Sawng project that has nothing to do with the Weez.

  • It's called 80's Radio.

  • Zola~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~BERGKAMP~~­~~``

  • its the song that we compuse with rivers, in his channel

  • brazil - italy (1982) 2 - 3!!!! don't forget!!!

  • weezer + footbal = *_*

  • lol taylor2d2 is right

  • I thought he'd wait till the bridge lyrics were revised "a second time" as he said in the Step 14 video.

  • 3:12 to 3 :15 is rivers saying "wake your fucking nieghbors"? (sorry i spelt it wrong)

  • no. he is saying "funky".

  • lol wake your funky neighbors

  • i vote to keep the original title of the song, "80's Radio." just what exactly are we "turnin', turnin?" the volume to hear our "80's Radio" of course.

  • This isn't Weezer.

    Personally, I think it is impressive what a bunch of fans and him have done. It is a really solid track. I wonder what an entire album would sound like.

  • I find it interesting that people are proclaiming this video a "fake" when it is in fact a clip of Rivers's own video, just without his latest instructions.

  • I can't believe some random person has duped the media into believing that this song is finished, much less an actual new Weezer song when this is all Cuomo and the fans. Song's not done yet people!

  • Idiot. The song is not finished yet. Stop confusing people.

  • its really good i like it whoever helped rivers do the song kudos

  • This is not a "new weezer song" this is from rivers' let's write a sawng porject.

    Pat, Brian and Scott had no input. in fact... That's me playing the drums and guitars. this is a fake. go to rivers' official page to see the progress.

  • Please, someone have the lyrics of this song??? I've searched for it on Google and i'm not found it!!! And my english is not so good... Anyone really could help me??? Thanx!!! And PEEZ and lUV 4 all!!! ;-))))))

  • Yeah, I don't think this song is finished yet...

  • this is the song rivers wrote with the fans

  • wat does soccer have to do w anything

  • it's just old footage of rivers, ah nevermind your not a fan.

  • Yeah, which is a shame coz I really like the song and think this (and some previous versions) have been fine!

  • This is actually the video Rivers posted on Step 13 or 14 I believe of Lets make a Sawng.. it isnt done yet
