As you may have heard, Rivers Cuomo is asking for your help in writing a new song. RC started out telling us it should be “fun” as well as “poppy” and “tough,” then folks suggested titles. “’80s Radio” won. If you’re new to the game, we’re currently on “Step 10″ or “Bridge Lyrics.” Before you dive in, a couple things. First, please note that his speaking voice is much different than his singing voice. Also, as Rivers warns us, “Don’t try to be a William Shakspeare,” just let the good times roll.
That’s actually not bad. At all. In fact, it’s good! Judging from some of Red‘s stinkers, maybe he should always approach songwriting this way. Anyway, Rivers, here’s your new favorite muxtape.
Weezer’s next one is out 6/3 via Interscope. Is it too late to add “’80s Radio” to it?

Was that the African anteater ritual?

…Holy shit. It sounds like something off of Brighten the Corners…
This is not a heart song. It feeeels wrong.
all of Cuomo’s songs are just nostalgia-fests now. They say nothing, do nothing, emote nothing. And, again, this whole concept of “screw school / i’m doing things my own way” is just false coming from a guy who spent years trying to find Kurt Cobain’s song-writing “formula,” had a nervous breakdown and enrolled in Harvard.
And shave your moustache, you look like a douche.
He looks like he’s really high or something.
this man is william shakespeare too often.
DO NOT DISRESPECT THE MUSTACHE.
P.S. Sounds “meh,” but passable. YouTubers suck at writing lyrics.
sounds like a crappier pavement.
