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.
@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
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. ( =
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!!! ;-))))))

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.
