Weezer- "I'm Your Daddy" Track Review

7/10

Hear the song I heard:

This track from Weezer's new LP has caused a mental rift for me. It's dressed up like an awkward, dorky 13-year-old. However, it's so damn catchy. This is clearly a guilty pleasure for me, but maybe I'll sing its praises in time.

Great Tracks off Rad: Let It All Hang Out Trippin Down The Freeway (If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To Can't Stop Partying Put Me Back Together Good Tracks: I'm Your Daddy The Girl Got Hot I Don't Want To Let You Go Okay tracks: Love Is The Answer (without Indian vocals - on itunes) In The Mall So The Album is really just a grab bag of Top 40 Pop, Classic Weezer, and easily forgettable songs.

My favorite Weezer song is the one where they don't sing or play any instruments. :D

My favorite Weezer song is Only In Dreams from the Blue Album, but I also really like all there stuff with some exceptions.

I really don't get why people hate Make Believe It was almost as amazing as Pinkerton in my books

[riversjackson1]

I would love to see how people would react twards these guys if the blue album and pinkerton never were released

Either "Buddy Holly,Island in the sun,Pink triangle,my name is jonas,or ruling me,All very good and elaborate tracks!What is your favorite Mr.Needledrop?

[edentreks]

Dude, it is just fun music, not meant to be Pink Floyd deep... Rivers is also getting older and as nature works, we all mellow which is cool, I love it..

[Herculez7]

BLUE ALBUM ROCKS!

[SALIMGUY]

You're right on Weezer. Their songs are bad but have undeniably catchy melodies.

Good review. I have to agree with you, being a long term Weezer fan, whilst the song writing remains mostly excellent, the further away they've gotten from allowing rawness or rough edges on their albums, the less it does for me. Great example of this is "Pig". Such a good track on demo, but not nearly the same impact when recorded properly. I think it's wise for bands to strip back on approach occasionally, especially when they can create such strong melody and harmony.
