Dermatologists hate him: learn how one man refuses to age since '94
I would give you a +1, but I don't want to ruin the 94 likes.
+Michael Patton Yeah, good idea man ^^
Aw, someone ruined it.
+Pastel Prince One of my favorite comments ever
+Pastel Prince Him and Billie Joe Armstrong.
This song is bangin as hell, It's like them saying they know they've made some bad choices but in the end they just want to keep on track doing what they love. Same reason they were the band that i religiously listened to throughout highschool

I was looking for this comment
🤘🤣👍
@@deathswellsame
Rivers is immortal because he looks the goddamn same as he did in 1994.HE DOESN'T AGE
WHY DO ROCK STARS NOT AGE?!????11!1?1!????
Pfft David Gilmour Did.
Rivers cumo is actually kurt cobain in disguise... Picture him blond a little longr hair...
It's because they have money. XD But Rivers does show some age in the back of his head. Sometimes you can see he's missing a lot of hair.
Dean Tuna I'm fine with that
The alternate title for this track is "Sorry for Raditude"
lol
or, sorry for the Rick Rubin years haha
Or sorry for Red
Or sorry for make believe
sorry for HEY YO BITCHES IT WEEZER AND ITS WEEZY
"maybe I should play lead guitar and Pat should play the drums" yes. Pat should play the drums
+Sam Samsonite He should ALWAYS play the drums.
And honestly Matt should play the Bass. Oh well, only in dreams.
Pat should write the songs.
@@TheSickNeeds correct. automatic for life
Indeed. But I can't deny Pat nailed a lot of their guitar solos since like 2005-2013.
Great to have Weezer back in top form. I'm a long-time fan, and I couldn't be happier with their latest album! Excellent video as well.
OMG I'm like fangirl squealing everywhere. ZackScottGames and Weezer.
Totally agree, what i have heard of it so far it sounds like its going to be awesome.
Oh, Look...It's Zack
ZACK !!!
A lot better than their last 2 albums, it's definitely one of their best
Best apology video ever
Song specifically for the old school fans. Love it
VarynDar i'm 15 and know this song lol
how?? you're only physically able to listen to this if you're over the age of 20....
jj45 # WRONG
jj45 I'm 11
this song came out only 3 years ago, what about the older weezer songs that are now 8 years old? come on man
I love how they just refuse to age
Totally nailed the flag planting, Pat.
I know also this song is epic 🔥
Hey Jon
oh my god fred actually got them to the moon
Once small step for man, one giant leap for Weezer.
Good one😊
It’s very rare when a band actually apologized for making a string of bad albums through their music, this must have made a lot of Weezer fans happy to see that Weezer is still in there
This just hits so heavy at 3:57am in the dark with headphones on
True
me but 3:27
20 minutes later and this 2 year old comment would be perfectly accurate to me
me but 2:16
Nah it’s the song you play when you graduate high school
man i love this song so much it feels like a celebration of all things weezer
"I forgot that disco sucks". I almost pissed my pants there.
After listening to the whole album, I gotta say that it's their best record since Pinkerton. Yes, even better than Maladroit and Green. I don't think the album has a single bad track. Good job, Weezer. Will be picking up the vinyl for sure.
is amazing
But both of those albums were pieces of shit.
*****
they were alright. theyre only considered shit because its weezer. if a new band came out with green or maladroit as their debut album theyd get loads of attention
no, they really aren't. they're just shit.
*****
thats a nice opinion youve got there
3:48 "kinda the only thing you see in dreams" That line fits so good, there's no way that's not a reference to "Only in Dreams"
The whole song is a reference to the blue album. Back to the shack is referencing "In the Garage", he says he made up with his dad which is "Say it Ain't So", etc. It makes it a fun listen from the first time to the 100th time. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that line is why Rivers wrote the song in the first place, which is why this video for a song about getting back to the fundamentals is centered around that original context.
1994, best year for music, tv, and movies. I might be biased, but it's still true
I agree so much amazing entertainment came out that year.
We also lost Kurt Cobain that year which was a massive downer for music
***** hahahahhahahaha
Wow the list of movies in 1994 is ridiculous!
Wheatsolo
Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, The Mask, Speed, Dumb and Dumber!!
If you look real closely, there not actually on the moon
+HypoxiaHD if you look real closely, you would see that you used the wrong "they're"
maybe they just wanted to Walk The Moon
+HypoxiaHD It was all faked! Steven Spielberg directed it!
lol
+HypoxiaHD Just like the "real" moon landing. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!
Brian is flawless, like what the hell dude you're supposed to stop being hot at some point in your life
Brenda Luna i'd let him in my ass
Zac Wadholm okay... i dont blame you tho
Brenda Luna he's pushing 50 and balding but he's still hot.
For real though
How bout now
BACK TO THE RADIOSHACK
R.I.P in Peace, RadioShack. ripple in peacicle.
+Liam Campbell no, not really...as a younger child, I bought most of my toys there. great memories were had
Good. 😁
IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE THEY'RE OUT OF BUSINESS
Ayyyy im subbed
weezer has to be one the most consistently good bands
+Potato wow
+Potato Gr8 b8 m8
No, they've had so many bad albums lately. That's what this song is about
+XxXxXxX_420( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 420_XxXxXxX NO
2:28 is one of the coolest shit weezer has done in years
Cuomo explained that the lyrics refer to how he feels bad for the direction the band has taken on some of their past material. He admitted that sometimes he "went over the edge". He explained his desire to create "a classic alt-rock record." The word "shack" serves as a reference to Amherst house, a home where some of the original Weezer members had lived and recorded a few of their demos. Lyrically, "Back to the Shack" deals with the theme of nostalgia and a wish to return "to [the band's] 1994 roots". Dave Lewis stated the song serves as a thematic continuation of two previous Weezer songs, "In the Garage" and "Memories". It also deals with Weezer's relationship with their fans and serves as "basically an apology for the past two decades and a promise to embrace their nerdy roots."[ The song's opening lines-"I'm sorry guys, I didn't realize that I needed you so much"-in particular reinforce this theme.
and then they made pacific daydream
aaaaaaaaaaaaa
Yeah I didn't like that one
walk soft with a big stick, WOOOOOOOOOOOO (and thats the counter to that argument)
DUH
Then explain the majority of the black album
"Kind of thing you only see in dreams"
ARPANET Troll ONLY IN DREAMS
Is this some sort of reference to their UA-cam invasion in 2010 when they went to Fred and said that they would be the first band to play on the moon?
Also, a recurring theme in these Teezers are the name "The Astronauts."
no, its a literal reference to the Blue album
Weezer and fred really did go to the moon
this song is an apology video
Who would of thought that Weezer actually listened to Fred.
SO TRUE
Little known fact: Weezer actually went to the moon to film this video.
Don't you dare say this.
You know people can't breathe on the moon
@@rorynator7567 are you baiting?
@@rorynator7567 they're in a dome with breathable air duh
i don't understand fans of Weezer hating on this song. They made this song as an apology to their fans for losing their way over the last decade and trying to create a new genre of music and are stating they're going back to the old Weezer that we all knew and loved
This is their signature sound that got them started and it will take them another 20 years too :)
So that was a lie
@@choobum Haha yeah
They did it. They played on the moon. Fred did it.
I love when Brian moves his hair, is awesome xD
He makes an excellent 1988 guitar god.
I found this song on Spotify and I have been listening to it like 10 times already.
same lol
Verse 1]
Sorry guys, I didn't realize that I needed you so much
I thought I'd get a new audience, I forgot that disco sucks
I ended up with nobody and I started feelin' dumb
Maybe I should play the lead guitar and Pat should play the drums
[Chorus]
Take me back, back to the shack
Back to the strat with the lightning strap
Kick in the door, more hardcore
Rockin' out like it's '94
Let's turn up the radio
Turn off those stupid singing shows
I know where we need to go
Back to the shack
[Verse 2]
I finally settled down with my girl and I made up with my dad
Had to go and make a few mistakes so I could find out who I am
I'm lettin' all of these feelings out even if it means I fail
'Cause this is what I was meant to do and you can't put that on sale
[Chorus]
Take me back, back to the shack
Back to the strat with the lightning strap
Kick in the door, more hardcore
Rockin' out like it's '94
Let's turn up the radio
Turn off those stupid singing shows
I know where we need to go
Back to the shack
Bridge]
We belong in the rock world
There is so much left to do
If we die in obscurity, oh well
At least we raised some hell
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Take me back, back to the shack
Back to the strat with the lightning strap
Kick in the door, more hardcore
Rockin' out like it's '94
Let's turn up the radio
Turn off those stupid singing shows
I know where we need to go
Back to the shack
If the rest of the album is this good, I think I might just cream my pants
back to the shack is the worst song on the album

THEY PLANNED IT DIDN’T THEY
after knowing the story Ratitude gives the story a whole new perspective.
My first thought - 'Wow they had to go to the moon to film this'
A lot of people have been lukewarm in their reception of this album. But, just like Pinkerton, I am confident that this album's reputation will grow as years go by. Who knows, it may end up being revered as highly as Blue/Pinkerton one day.
It’s certainly popular now, wouldn’t say as popular as Pinkerton but I see a lot people calling this their favorite
Yep, it’s rep grew.
Its now considered one of their best albums after blue, Pinkerton, and some think white is better
I don’t know why I said that as if you’re not in the same year as me
Man’s a pyschic
Looks like you were correct lol.
i bet they're using the same studio they filmed the moon landing on
you mean the real moon where they really landed on ?
Clever.
i think even for weezer its to expensive
OMG R U SERIOUS !!!!!ONE111111!!!ONE!!ONE!!!!!!11212121
Now, yes, they would have the tech to fake it, not back then. But even now, there would still be weird/unrealistic things. The first moon landing is super accurate, even if a lot of people said it's not. Every conspiracy theories about the moon can be argued
This song is so underrated!
Back the the Shaq.
Back to the Mystery Shack
Weeaboo Jones Back to the Nutshack.
Joseph Bissett back to the radio shack
Please don’t take Shaq back to the rap, though.
@@mrsammich899 YES!!!
that "and pat should play the drums" line is pretty fucking great
2:20-2:27 Oh hai Weezer, I've missed you!
About 100,000 of these views are from me
The Hydra Gaming And Comedy Same here
+The Hydra Gaming And Comedy If this is true, then you have spent roughly 67.2 hours listening to/watching this song. So you've spent nearly 3 days alone listening. :)
Kek in heck.
+Shadow Being i literally would. this song/video roxxxxx
+The Hydra Gaming And Comedy original
I'm pretty sure this is them admitting that Raditude was terrible.
JackIntheBoxGaming I actually liked ratitude!
“I’m sorry guys, I never realized that I needed you so much” yeah it’s basically like that
if they apologise in song for all the bad stuff they've put out they'll never run out of material.
@@TheSickNeeds that's unfortunately very true
Raditude was probably the last straw following a bad era of Make Believe and Red Album
1:01 literally the coolest thing I've ever seen
GUESS WHO'S BACK!
Weezer?
Ac/DC? Van Halen? Led Zepplin? I don't know, I give up... XD. Just kidding.
ahahaha :P
Shady's back. Tell a friend.
Backstreet's back?! Alright!
This is such an underrated return.
Mission accomplished Fred, you got them on the moon.
This song is like a triumphant apology.
Pat is hilarious. Always having a blast on this drums back there.
I love going Back to the Shaq
+OwnieAlex lmao my man
I am unsure if i am correct but still. i find this video/song has a deeper, more awesome meaning. River's solo career really wasn't the most popular thing ever, and he never got close to enough success as his time in Weezer. The time where he gave up his friends because he thought he was better alone. He says " Back to the strat with the lighting strap" because he literally just decided against using his trademark strap. Also, the giant Weezer symbol coming, dusty and unused and buried. That rising into the sky and lighting up was representing the rise of Weezer and being just as good as ever.
I think they might be meaning that music sucks today and they want to bring the good shit back!
Jack Torrance Bingo. #returnofthe90s
#turnoffthepop
I wanna go back, I wanna go back, and I don't even know how I got outta the shack
back to the strat with the lightning strap
I know why weezer is on the moon... because there "out of this world"
That was awesome...
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
OOOOOOOOH YOU JUST SAID THAT
Hahahaaa!!
Ba Dum Tss.
"Strat with the lightening strap"! They use Ric Ocasek's SG and Les Paul Jr in the studio. That's the "Weezer sound".
Thank god for weezer!!!!
Can we just talk about Brian & the sassiest finger wag of all time??
Anyone realizing this is a nod to the Sweater Song video? Playing in time but in slow motion?
Masterful. I can't listen to/watch this enough.
I love the way he says "and pat should play the drums" Rivers is such a child lol
it's funny how this is one of the most disco sounding weezer songs EVER
DOPE
Nose :)
@@Maliciousmusicman Can't believe nobody but you thought to say that in 7 whole years
@@adrianlaode6027 I'm just simply a better Weezer fan
In the beginning I thought it was the video for "Ooops I Did It Again" Haha.
There's more thought in these songs than we've had in years. I'd say the quality of the melodies and riffs is on part with Green and Maladroit, but the "fine detail" that these songs were given gives them so much more of an OOMPH! They sound great. Rivers might have peaked years and years ago (all the greats do) but he's still capable of making great songs. Makes you wonder how much better the other post 96 albums would have been with a little more effort
“I'm letting all of these feelings out even if it means I fail
Cause this is what I was meant to do and you can't put that on sale” YES.
Rivers, you're all forgiven
PunkDandy
I JUST SAW THE FRED VIDEO AND I LITERALLY JUST REALIZED THEY DID HAVE A PERFORMANCE ON THE MOON.
I like the subtle allusion to Blue Album in the Neil Armstrong sound bite at the end: "The kind of thing you ONLY see IN DREAMS."
This track is bananas, so happy to hear that iconic Blue Album sound mixed into something new. Bring your tour back to Newfoundland, I'll offer you dudes free lodging and snacks as incentive!
One small step for man, one giant leap for Weezer fans
Pat signifies Weezer almost as much as rivers
Fred finally got Weezer to the moon
This is my new favorite old song.
it's not old
Max Hall Is it not? Oh I thought it was at least like 6-7 years old. My bad
Josiah Knoedler naw like a year and a half
Max Hall Oh snap XD I guess I've known it since it was new
Lol
Weezer hasn't lost there sound that's awesome.
At the end when he says "thats the kinda thing you only see in dreams" brings back memories of the blue album
This must be the concert Fred was talking about
Weezer back doing what they do best - luv it
Sequel to In The Garage if you think about it tbh
Yeah, but to me it doesnt sound the same.
Daniel Takashima The themes are still there
DUDE
'Take me back, back to the shack. Back to the Strat with the lightning strap.'
Thank you, Rivers. We all owe you one
if this came out in the 80s or 90s it would be a world famous classic
Yes Yes Yes!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy the boys are Back In The Shack. I've so missed the Weezer sound & it sounds better than ever now. What an endless amount of art these boys have in them!!! With only one listening to the album I think I'm putting this one way up in their catalogue. Thank you for all of the years of great music boys!!!
This song is just AMAZING and its album is a masterpiece!
FRED would be proud
okay but ive listened to this band for years now. they were one of the first bands i've ever liked. after years of wanting to see them im finally going to this summer. i'm honestly so excited and happy i get to see one of my favorite bands
If this was 20 years ago this song would have been on MTV 24/7
This lyric is extremely cool! ♥
Fred did send Weezer to the moon.
This lyrics of this video sound exactly like the song from the last episode of your favorite animated Disney show from the 2000's
