Wow that was bad and unnecessary.
I only listen to Africa by Toto. What is this trash.
"we're still hip with the memes, guys!"
weezer trying so hard to stay relevant lmao
It's okay, if anything. The Toto version is still superior.
Sounds like something you'd just hear played at a live show fact they took time to put together and produce an actual cover that literally brings nothing to the table is a little weird
I mean, sure. It sounds like something they whipped up when they had some down-time. they're not exactly playing it up, I suppose.
Why so much negativity. It's a little memey, who cares, it's a nice cover by Weezer. Not everything done needs to be this massive spectacle where they recreate the original source.
I do find it hilarious that the cover of this single is literally just a screenshot of a tweet
I saw Weezer in concert opening for Foo Fighters, and although the performance was great, one thing I remember is the lead guy saying something like "let us know if there's anything cool to do in Sydney, otherwise I'll just sit in my hotel room listening to old Weezer records" which came across as really depressing lol
Great way to completely neuter a song with plain pop vocals and terrible guitar mix.
Sounds like your run of the mill pub cover-band
Ya'll salty. Wasn't bad, I liked it.
I mean it isn't bad, but it sounds like the cover version you'd get on a karaoke machine.
this sounds like it was from a YouTube channel that does music parodies
its a quick meme song who cares
Ha, that snare sounds so terrible in this song. It doesn't sound like a normal cover of Africa and it doesn't sound a "Weezer" version of Africa, it sounds like Weezer half-assing Africa.
Fits my style exactly
Rivers is a pretty shy dude on stage. He probably didn't mean anything by that comment.
If I had to pick a cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZABCeVA_ung
nah this is the best https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvHi84Ivh-Y&
I mean sure but you can't blame people for expecting a little more from a band that's been around as long as Weezer.
People forget their Pork and Beans music video was basically a OG mid 2000's meme compilation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQHPYelqr0E
https://youtu.be/MH9FyLsfDzw This is more my style.
Aren't all the NSP covers pretty much identical to the originals?
Jesus Christ dude I love this guy, thank you for showing me this <3
