    My wife is a classically trained opera singer but I’m just an ex drummer and decent karaoke singer who never learned more than drum tabs.
    So hearing him be like”jah jugga dush” to communicate how to play that riff was very reminiscent of my days playing with our band of idiots with zero music theory knowledge 😂

    The answer to the last question is 100% Buddy Holly

    • @3TinTinTin

      June 18, 2026 at 5:14 pm

      Yes 100%

      though I agree with the first question, hash pipe is my favourite and personally most compelling

    The answer to the last question is 100% Baby Shark. Likely the do do do part.

    They don’t even know the name to their own song 😢

    • @glanfelix3804

      June 18, 2026 at 6:08 pm

      Songs are usually produced on a mass scale and have similiar beats since they are of the same genre so that may be the case

    “The sweater song” proceeds to play El Scorcho.

    Most iconic lick: Buddy Holly

    Pat, the drummer, the ONLY one up there ripping it on guitar.

    Love you dude. Still waiting for that Special Goodness album ❤️

    Hash Pipe is my all time favourite Weezer song, it’s criminally underrated

  16. @Beinjeian

    June 19, 2026 at 9:12 am

    Hash pipe is such a dumb caveman riff. “You guys need a single, gotta be a real rocker”

  17. @robatron1011

    June 19, 2026 at 9:29 am

    Say It Ain’t so is up there

  18. @jacobrossdev

    June 19, 2026 at 5:47 pm

    Tf you mean hash pipe has the best riff? Every song on the blue album has a million times better lead guitar than hash pipe. Or was it because hash pipe got them radio play and they cashed in on it? 😂

  19. @michaeljoshuaholmes4482

    June 19, 2026 at 7:17 pm

    Its Say It Ain’t So and its not even close.

    And anything on the Blue Album has a better riff than Hash Pipe.

    Sweater Song?
    Opening to My Name Is Jonas?
    Opening and main riff to The World Has Turned….?
    Buddy Holly has been a viral meme for years.
    Only In Dreams has a bass riff that most people forget is elite and carries an 8 minute song.
    Maybe Holiday and In The Garage are worse than Hash Pipe but nothing else.

    You guys wrote and recorded those epic songs and dont know their brilliance? Come on dudes! Blue Album is one of the most iconic and unique records of the 90s!!!
