Weezer - Perfect Situation - Original Early Album Version
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- 2nd track from the 5th Weezer Album "Make Believe" released in 2005. This is the original (or first) "early album version" of the song which features a longer guitar intro and a minor variation on the chorus melody. A little bit different from the radio edit, and later album releases, and also slightly different from the official video version of the song found here on UA-cam, but this is still THE BEST VERSION, in my humble opinion. Enjoy this rare gem from the past my friends!
***Please give this video a "like" (or a thumbs up) to help the video move up in the UA-cam search results, so its easier for others to find. Thank you and rock on! ✌🎶🎸

"Perfect Situation"
Lyrics by Rivers Cuomo of Weezer
[Bad ass guitar intro]
What's the deal with my brain?!
Why am I so obviously insane?!
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 a hero, but I'm a 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 on to
I just pass through
(Chorus)
Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
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?
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
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
Ohhhhhh!
[Another bad ass guitar solo]
(Chorus of Oooohhhh's to the end)
.
Just spent 30 minutes arguing with my sister saying that weezer changed the chorus of this song. She spent 30 minutes gas lighting me, nearly convincing me I was delusional. Thank internet for saving me.
If she still doesn't believe you you can literally show her the AOL session interview
I wish i had a sibling that liked weezer.
Real recognize real, champ. We love ya.
And i thought i was delusional.
This was always the version they played on the radio when I was younger from what I can remember. Only on UA-cam did I hear the other version
This is the version the real fans know
D'Angelo Angelo damn straight!
The other version is like nails on a chalkboard.
Why did they change it? Sounds better this way.
I've been look5for this version because I loved it
U made my day bro🤘🏻
My brain will simply in reject mode every time I listen to the other version...
Same here! I thought I was going crazy explaining to everyone that this is how it went!
I thought I was crazy, my dad has the cd somewhere and I couldn’t find this version. It’s been nearly 13 years since I’ve heard it!
Spotify has the other version. I can't stand it.
Best version. Keeping that third “ooooh” low really drives home the depressing vibes, I dig it
All is right again. Thought I'd fallen into a universe where this one didn't exist.
SAME.
lucky for me I still have this one on my iPod :)
The perfect situation would be if they removed the other version from streaming services and had this instead
😂😂😂
"early version" - No, this is the only version. I bought the CD when it came out and this is why I heard. It was immediately my favorite song on the album. No reason to every change it. It's perfect.
this is some mandala effect fuel right here. it’s such random small insignificant aspects of the song, that it really makes me wonder why it got changed :0
Exactly my thinking
This version rocks a little more than the other. I thought I lost my mind when I saw them live and they sang it differently lol.
Very glad the original version of this exists still. Im not a fan of the re-recorded version
This will always and forever be the way it should be. Its the way all the Weezer fans sing it at their concerts. Radio friendly doesn't mean fan friendly.
Do they really sing it this way at concerts? That’s so cool, if so 😂
I legitimately was wondering I had mendella effected into some alternate universe where this version didn't exist.
This version is SO much better!! And without the cheesy “perfect situation” at the end like in the new one. I wish they had this one on any streaming device...
I agree, that part is so lame.
Like, we get it, it's the title of the song. You don't have to shout it in my face just for algorithmic branding purposes. It cheapens the song.
I just found out this summer that there was a 'new' version. I've been listening to the original CD's ripped mp3s on my iPod for all these years. My mind was blown that there is even another version...
I really had to stop and listen to figure out what was wrong at first. The “perfect situations” at the end didn’t help either.
Thanks for uploading the album version! As someone who wore out this CD back in the day, I just cannot get used to the whoas on the single!
What’s crazy is I totally remember and thought I had this version. I still have the original album I uploaded into my iTunes (not Apple Music) but the chorus is the “newer” version. Thank god for UA-cam convincing me I wasn’t crazy. 😅
It's amazing how much of a difference a couple of well placed whoa oh's can make
This version is by far the best version. Didn’t even know the other version existed until last year
Same here, and I hate it. It bugs me so much that it’s doesn’t have the same chorus. This one’s better
The "Perfect Version" you mean.
Perfect version.
I remember this version first and then suddenly it was different and less hitting especially near the end it had that "perfect situation" repeating all cheesy. This song really is the best one.
I thought that this was a mandala effect, glad to know this was the version I liked best back in the day
Best version of this song. I thought I was going crazy the first time I heard the radio version. We need those low "ooohs" !
This version is so much better & thank you for confirming I’m not crazy and didn’t make this all up in my head.
This is how it’s supposed to be.
I been tryna find this version for years finally 😭❤️
His guitar puts me in tears every time but I have a Fatastic High Fedelty System with Electro Voice Speakers ! It makes the difference ! Thanks Weezer from Saint Louis Missouri ! We love you guys and girls !
The truest version ever.
This intro is one of the best things in rock and roll
Just amending this post: this intro is *the* best thing in rock and roll
@@kurtdahlke9526checking in three months later, is it still one of the best things in rock and roll?
Honestly thought I was losing my mind misremembering how this song went for YEARS bless u for sharing the version I remember from my formative years
Omg I hear this version at work every day and I just listened to the other version and thought I was crazy because the chorus melody was different but thank you so much for posting this!!!!
Same just happened to me! They play this version at work and the chorus is why I liked it so much, so when I heard the other version just now I was like "No, this isn't it. There's *no way* I was listening to it wrong this entire time. Please don't let this be it!" lol
xXx okay good I’m not alone in this lmao. But now I’m upset because it’s not on iTunes..
Ironically, this was the version that I’ve heard for the first time, like 15-16 years ago... in bootleg mp3 recording, I’ve just downloaded the album on iTunes, shockingly the newest version came up, and I don’t like it, couldn’t find the “original version” anywhere, so thanks a lot for shared this old one 👍🏻👍🏻
I knew something didn't sound right when I looked up this song. This is the version I remember and the one I love. Thanks.
god I THOUGHT the version on streaming services didnt sound the same as I remembered the song, thank you!
My brain always rejects the other "Oh, ohhhhh..." Chorus, had to come look for the original😁😁
The superior version.
Man, I thought I was losing my mind for a second. Listened to three other videos and I was like... I swear this song was different.
I've been looking for this version several years, I knew I wasnt crazy and it existed. Thanks
I hate that this version is so hard to find, I can't stand the other one. Thanks for sharing this. ❤️
by the time my incarnation ends, I bet I will have listened to the intro of this song 1000 times
I always come back to this video whenever the song comes up on Spotify. I refuse to listen to the current version.
Yes I knew I wasn’t delusional. I had been looking for this one. It’s better and I knew they didn’t say perfect situation all through the ending. ♥️
I've been a Weezer for only a few years. I've listened to each album hundreds of times.
I'm thrilled to stumble upon this original version of Perfect Situation that I just learned exists. Gotta listen a couple more times, because I'm so used to the other version that I find the chorus here a little bit weird.
Thank god I found the good version 👍🏽
THIS is the song I've been looking for forever! Thank you, thank you, kind soul. You have saved my life 🙌
Hella Mega Tour dude I can't wait. My two favorite bands together. Green Day and Weezer.
The only version we need!
The only true version for me since 2005!
Thank you thank you thank you for bringing this version into my life! It was already one of my favourite Weezer songs (among so many...) but the more prominent vocals in this mix elevate it magically...
This first version is the best.
This is the version I had when I bought this album day one
this is the version i like, thank you !!!
A few years back, this song was played in my local radio station, and the chorus was weirdly different! I recorded it and ask my friend who's also a fan to this song to listen to it and we both were jackie-chan'ed our head wondering what had changed. We really believe that we were in some kind of Mandela Effect about this but later on I scratch back my old hard drive and found this version. What a relief.
I like this version best!!
It is the best version, thank you. I felt crazy remembering the song different from everyone else.
best version...
The real one
*Hello from la France* nice one! comfortable to hear, thank you for sharing. Best regards from a frenchie ;)
Man.. this the OG oh ooh
This is it!!
Someone sang this but the other version at karaoke the other night, and it made me really miss this og version… glad to have found it here 🥲
I knew they changed it somewhere along the line! This is the version I had on my Kids' Choice Awards CD growing up.
best version
I've been searching for this version thank God , i found it 😭 bcuz this version much better than new 🤘😥
Yes,this is it!
wow this version slaps!
I always preferred this version.
I was surprise when listening to the perfect situation with MV. It was a little bit different from the song that i like. I love this version more. I thought I was dreaming this version existed.
This is my favorite version and I was going nuts trying to find it
Much better
it's 2021 and i still like version more
I was lucky enough to have this one when it came out. I hate the reworked one.
the best version
For a while now I had been thinking I got hit with a Mandela effect or something since I knew there was just something off about the version I kept finding on all the music streaming sites. So glad you uploaded this masterpiece!
got the make believe cd not long ago, happy to find this version here ^.^
Yeeesssss!! 🙌🏼 This is the version 🤘🏼
I prefer this one cause this is the version that was on my ipod when I downloaded in limewire. But unfortunately Cuomo decided to re-record the Oh to how the crowd would sing it live.
But shoutout to KROQ in Los Angeles for playing this version on the radio.
Weezer - Perfect Version
I’ve been trying to find this for years!!
Yes!!!! The better version!!!!!!!
Pense que era un efecto Mandela, la forma en que recordaba el coro, pero si existen dos versiones de esta canción jeje
I wish I still had my copy of this CD...
Versi Inilah Yang Quw Dengar Pertama Kali Di Radio Waktu Masih Sekolah...
I prefer this version
only the real ones know
I love this song!!
Bro I'm not tripping lol I was like ugh Mandela effect or what but this is the one I remember
This 1 is the best. It has the full intro
The best version
This is the best version
how could they possibly think this needed changing?
I heard the newer version first on streaming. The first time I heard this one, it sounded weird in comparison. After a couple of listens, though, am finding I prefer this one. Wish streaming offered a choice.
Much better intro. Much better.
Totally
When the og is WAY better.
I heard the new version first so now the original sounds very strange haha. This version is on the cd I bought as well!
Yeahhh!
They should have stuck with this superior version.
I like this spicier version.
I found my people. I thought I was crazy. This version is better
