    knowing Rivers has a loving family and is no longer lonely makes this song even better for me cus it means it has a happy ending. He wasn't lonely for the rest of his days on the earth

      @@duckhunter3767Hey stranger, I was in a similar situation as you when I was 16. I had such crippling anxiety that I actually had to drop out of highschool and I lost all of my friends. I genuinely thought my life wasn’t worth living . I pushed through and kept living out of pure spite for the world. The longer you hold on, the more opportunities you find. I’m 22 now and i’m graduating college this upcoming winter and i’ve found my soulmate, good quality friends and a purpose. Being a teenager is HARD!! You’re valid for feeling the way you do because you’re in the dark but please wait and soon the sun will shine ❤

      Yeah Make Believe was actually their first album, then they kicked out Scott for the blue album and replace him with Matt then kicked Matt for Mikey, then kicked out Mikey for Scott. They also had to kick Bryan off after this album but then brought him back a couple days later to make the blue album.

    0:59 I know I'm not the only one who noticed that Van Halen reference. Story goes that Van Halen in the roth years had a "M&M Contract" requiring all brown m&ms to be left out. This rule went along with several other rules regarding stage lighting positions, etc. But needless to say, if they found a brown m&m the band knew the show vendors never read their contract and decided to trash the backstage.

    The way I interpret this song is that at the beginning it's hard to tell who's show it is as they were both on the mic. Then it's clear that it's her show and that he's the one chasing her, feeling worried about not being enough for her. It's when she locks her self away that he takes it into his own hands to become the star of the show and that's when he's finally enough for her, as she comes out from being locked away to go to him. However, she's jealous that the band and crowd are satisfied with him over her. You're better than you think, a good heart goes a long way, don't let others suppress your potential.

    I find this music video and song inspiring. I like how by the end of the mv, the guy (real lead singer of Weezer) sings his heart out and is later recognized instead of continuing living under the shadows the leading girl in the mv. The lead girl singer obviously had charisma in her video, but she didn't felt genuine. The guy's (real lead singer of Weezer) performance in the mv felt sincere and real. Characters like him should be recognized instead of inconsiderate and vain people that believe fame comes from being mean and above others. Weezer is a great band! First song I ever listened to by them.

    Hungry nights, once again
    Now it's getting unbelievable.

    And I don't appreciate this excess company.
    Though I can't satisfy all the needs she has
    And so she starts to wander...

    In a perfect situation
    I let love down the drain
    There's the pitch, slow and straight
    All I have to do is swing
    And I'm the hero
    But I'm the zero
    Hungry nights, once again
    Now it's getting unbelievable
    'Cause I could not have it better
    But I just can't get no play
    From the girls, all around
    As they search the night for someone to hold onto
    I just pass through
    Singing
    Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho whoa
    Singing
    Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho whoa
    Get your hands off the girl
    Can't you see that she belongs to me?
    And I don't appreciate this excess company
    Though I can't satisfy all the needs she has
    And so she starts to wander
    Can you blame her?
    Singing
    Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho whoa
    Singing
    Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho whoa
    Tell me there's a logic out there
    Leading me to better prepare
    For the day that something really special might come
    Tell me there's some hope for me
    I don't wanna be lonely
    For the rest of my days on the earth, oh
    Oh ho, ho ho, oh ho whoa
    Singing
    Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho whoa
    Singing
    Oh ho, whoa oh
    Whoa oh oh, whoa, whoa oh
    Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh
    (Perfect situation)

    The 90's aesthetic is so nuanced it's easy to overlook and see this as a real time modern day video. But if you look closely at the small details of the settings you realize the genius of the video. It's the mid to late 90's and they have perfectly recreated that moment in time. Not the "weeze to Weezer" moment but the window into that Era.
