    Another wonderful tune left off the released album. Lord only knows why.
    Enjoy.

    It's a tribute to Ween's genius that a beautiful pop song like this, that a lot of bands would kill to have written, doesn't even make the cut.

    I will always associate this song with my most recent ex boyfriend. If there’s any song that screams “him,” it’s this song. He wasn’t a huge fan of Ween, and I never even got the chance to show him anything beyond The Mollusk. He was the sweetest person imaginable and treated me so well. Even though our relationship ended, I think about him often and wish we kept being friends. He had such an impact on my life, and introduced me to some of my favorite bands. I’ll never forget him. Thank you, Ryan.

      What an incredibly mature mindset in regards to an ex. Thank you for sharing!

      When you spend years making songs on a 4 track cassette recorder, you get good at it.

    This song is actually pretty heartbreaking. It's about Gener's hope for the future after learning he was going to have a child and proposing to his on/off girlfriend at the time. Sarah. They divorced for good a couple years later. It certainly captures a moment in Gener's life... and people say Ween and never serious. He's way out on a limb here.

      Gener's love life is pretty well documented in a bunch of released tracks and unreleased songs like this. It's been quite up and down but I think he's happy now - he deserves it! It's all good grist for the songwriter's mill I guess.

    • @maxwilliams6872
      @maxwilliams6872 4 года назад +12

      You kind of get the impression from the song that he's marrying her **because** she's having his baby, which is in some ways noble and in others a recipe for a failed marriage.

    This was played for our first dance 10 years ago today my wife and I still well up when we play it. Ween's demos are criminally underexposed but I think that is why I love them so much pure artists.

    how do they have so many unreleased and relatively unknown gems! it's a fun discovery process for diligent fans, but it's criminal that the world is deprived of the material for the most part

    I'm so glad I've got you
    Back into my life
    And I pray, I hope you'll say
    That you'll be my wife
    I've been down
    And you've had your share of loss and strife
    Still I know, the sun will shine
    If you'll be my wife
    Don't worry, I'm not so far gone
    I can't be the man that you count on (forever)
    Soon there'll be another soul to
    Complete the trinity
    And I know it'll be so safe
    Snuggled between you and me
    I'm so glad I've got you
    Back into my life
    And I pray, I hope you'll say
    That you'll be my wife

      Claude Coleman Jr. Has been their skinsman since 94, live, began recording with them in 97, but I honestly think there's bits and pieces of him beginning in 92(he's on the group photo on the flip side of Pure Guava, Classic) other than the drum machines they started out with

    @hwbanger Stroker Ace was a good song. They should have used a lot of these outtakes on La Cucaracha! Worst Ween album ever. Maybe 4 good songs on it. Everything else is subpar.
