I'm so happy my little video gets so much attention. This was a super fun night and an Awesome show. Long Live Weezer. :)

Rivers represents the incarnation of all people who are slightly disfunctional or awkward, he doesn't change for the fans or the time, he stays who he wants to be. And if thats is slightly awkward and human, then he's perfectly awesome to me.

He's reading these lyrics so it's basically karaoke. I've never seen anybody do karaoke this good.

It's just me or Weezer makes amazing covers???

Weezer is so popular and contemporary with those my age it's hard to believe how old the band is

proper dad dance there love it

God I love how into songs he’ll get with his dances and hand motions. It’s so great, dorky.

omg are they all wearing the same jacket they're such a dorky band i love them

バーで飲んでいたらいきなり誰かの演奏会が始まる→しばらくして気がつく。実はWeezerだった！みたいな流れでCDに曲がボーナストラックのように収録されていて当時鳥肌が立ちました。本家Coldplayよりがむしゃらな感じもなんかWeezerらしくて大好きです❤

I don't like Coldplay, but I love this cover. For some reason it makes me feel really nostalgic about old Weezer from the 1990s and when I was young and carefree. Freakin love Weezer.

I always get the George McFly vibe from Rivers

i love how they have always done their own thing, meaning, they could have easily became a nostalgia act like everclear and what not. They went their own way

Love how Weezer always seems like a regular band playing in a random bar but they are so awesome

What an amazing cover, you can tell he is singing from his heart and has so much passion. Go weezer (& coldplay)!

This is where the Hurley deluxe track came from?

I almost died when I saw this. One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands covered by another one of my favorite bands

Rivers' hand motions are priceless, also who is on drums?

HE'S SUCH A NERD I WANT 10

A really good song covered by a even more amazing band

I love rivers cuomo. i was born in 95' and had the wonderful opportunity to see him in cincinatti last year. I sang all the words to every song they played and could have cried

Beautiful Song ...Beautiful Cover....Beautiful Band ....Life is Beautiful with WEEZER! 👊

That girl in the background is totally checking rivers out 😂

This is the actual one in Hurley! Omg I love Rivers ♥

He always wanted to be a rockstar. A lot of us keep saying "pick up the guitar again, man!" but he really wants to enjoy connecting with the audience more because focusing on guitar takes a large part of your concentration. =w=

How have I only seen this now. His voice works so well for this song, amazing. I hope to see Weezer on the east coast this year 🙏

3:55 "Gracias amigos" - "De nada" XD

KZfaqs recommendations putting in the work. This is amazing

I've seen Weezer a few times since the 90's for the blue lp tour, up til the tour after the teal lp was released. That teal album tour was amazing! They continuously sound great with age!

Love this, wish it was on the new album!

Love his fashion, too♡

i love how weezer does so many covers

Seeing Weezer live for the first time next year 😊

one of those beautiful moments when the cover out-performs the original. long live Weezer!!

que bien les sale cada ves me gusta mas esta banda!

The fact he's reading lyrics makes him more adorable!

He looks just like my Psychology teacher

the nerd part is what makes them cool they are themselves

Love it! Thanks for posting

I'm in tears💔

Ahhh ~~ Rivers is so adorkable!!! I love that ❤️❤️✨✨❤️🐥

Wow he didn't need the lyrics on a piece of paper for this

I love Weezer and forever will but i do miss Weezer being good, i havent yet listened to the Hurley album out of fear from my experience with Raditude that being said i love this video

Such great vocals from Rivers here.

this guy is pitch-perfect without autotune

its nice to see one of my fav bands sing one of the songs of the great coldplay

still love this video. Thank you

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!! Love Weezer!!!!!!!!

this is the best quality of this video

i love him

I've never seen someone looks like the coolest person in the world while reading lyrics....until now.

I love how real weezer is and feels

Weezer without Pat on drums is just a Rivers solo act

He looks like a guy at a karaoke, he's the coolest

I like how he's reading the lyrics. x)

i just cried, this is way too good

i cant wait to see them on june 2 2012!!!

Beautiful

The girl playing the tubular bell is totally checking Rivers out lol

I'll be straightforward: I like this version more than Coldplay's.

These Weezer Covers are...magical. Even the shittiest songs get some kind of sparkle when covered by Weezer. Thanks for that, guys!

i swear he was drunk, but thats was still really amazing!

he's an awkward guy all around, but I think that's why so many people love him

@McAdamskinsky Same here! At there concert in Boston, My Friend and I Were repeating all the messages off the "txt boards'. Everybody around hated us. Expect the friends next to us. We decided to do this because of awesome we felt for being there.

love coldplay and weezer

Wow, two things I love meshed together!

When I ruled the world... I love hearing him sing this.

Gonna see em in January!! With foo fighters!!! Woot!!!

eat fresh cabbage + sing along this video = PERFECT SITUATION

this music is the inspiration of my life

Amazing.

this is so good! Aww look at there matching jackets :L xx

これはこれで好きだな。

Awesome !!

so love this guy ;p !!

Weezer the international band. read for lyric viva la vida, the greatest song! kidding meee

Its the anthem of nerdcore!!! love it!!! delusion of grandeur perfectly matched by true nerdyness. Rivers doesn't pretent - he ist just like that. Unlike Chris Martin he is able to give the words of this song meaning.

this kind of reminds me of a highschool talent show haha...all jokes aside this was pieced together greatly and rivers' vocals are great for the lyrics!!!

me gusto como la canto ooo arriba coumo

Such a good cover!!!! Plus, Rivers is fricken hilarious! hahaha

give us a new album. your force is, your voice.

this is awesome

Great cover!

I love his hand gestures. Lol.

lol I love this, been listening to this version on my ipod for a while, seeing it for the first time, the lyrics always got me wondering - pretty deep stuff , I love it how he reads the lyrics the performance nicely contrasts the pretentiousness of the lyrics:)

That girl on stage fully checking out Rivers at the end there ;)

amazing!

gotta love river's awkward hand motions..

gran cover

he was wingin it

i really like that they are wearing the same jacket

That awesome! I really like coldplay but that version is very good too!

he is so awkward I LOVE it

The bagpipes sound amazing!

@topoyis - i know for the last two 2 two tours they had a Touring drummer with them. Patrick was pulling double duties of drums and guitar. They were all rocking the same outfits on stage for a few a while as well. I know they had Josh Freese (amazing drummer) out with em for a while, not sure if that's him or not though.

magical

You realize they usually cover these songs with little to no practice at them which is why he doesn't have the lyrics in his head, not sure what concert it was but I'm pretty sure the randomly first time played a song at one point. Weezer is great, you're just crazy.

Super cool

*P*illars of sand, *P*illars of sand

@timeflies91 yea Pat plays guitar on this album, but i thought they were touring with Josh Freese

those hand gestures
