This cover somehow manages to completely take away all the irony and self-awareness of the original, effectively turning it from an angsty 90's rock song into a pompous 80's new wave song. Good job!
tbh i unironically like the original
Imo the original isn't that angsty at all especially when compared to the other tracks off the album.
How was the original ironic?
@seronymus it was making fun of misogynists with serious main-character syndrome fantasizing about swooping in and saving damsels
@@charliekahn4205I feel like if you asked rivers himself he would give you a different explanation
1984, a new wave band called "Weezer" from Los Angeles, CA has released their debut album which fans call, until this day, the "Blue Album". Good times.

Literally 1984
Yep I remember hearing a group called Weezer when I was 14... I was listening to a Hamm international radio of my Stepdads as he was into them plus AM CB radios. I used to earwig on the truckers over the pond. I live in the UK. 😅😅😅
@@DarkShadic9632Literally 1984
50s revivalism was really big in the 80s so theres totally a universe where this was the original
A multiverse of radness
@@Wild_Dicea multiverse of raditude
50s rivivalism has been a thing since 1969
@ShaNaNa242 your username is killing me. I know that 50s revivals has been around and strong since the 60s. I would argue it peaked during the 80s, you hear all the time about the "30 year rule"
@@lazarbro thanks? Lol
Wow, an 80s style cover/remix that actually sounds like an 80s song
It's because of the sax. Most 80s covers don't use that very, very, very 80s instrument, they just use synthesizers, which is why it sounds more modern. Listen to 80s new wave. Saxes all around!
Also the twinkly echo effect, very important
As a musician that made a living playing covers back in the 80's (and have been sick of most 80's music ever since) , I expected this to be awful. It's not, it's wonderful and so is the rest of your work. You're a real talent. Thank you!
Thanks, Don!
2:11 You nailed that riff!!!
That feel when you are searching for memes and stumble onto a genuinely great cover instead.
Also, the moment I saw you with the sax, I was like "Oh please, please, please play the famous riff on the sax".
This gives of “you did it” and “the end” type vibes
Ah yes. Good old days. Remember Weezer playing as a warm up act for Queen and Duran Duran.
Bro I saw this on reddit. You’ve got a new subscriber, this is awesome.
Thanks man!
Sax solo was unexpected! Nice job! 😃
Thanks dude!
“And by unexpected I meant , Completely and totally expected!!”
I feel sorry for myself from five minutes ago when I didn't know this existed. Good work
Thanks!
Holy shit it's TF2 engineer real
THE SAX SOLOOOOOOOOOO
So saxxyyy
How could Buddy Holly get better?
An 80s version.
Fucking brilliant, I love it!
I was listening and thought, "Oh, some saxophone would go very well in this upcoming part.." and at 1:57, you did not disappoint! :D Excellent stuff!
Thanks!!
Sounds like every 80s romantic movies ending lol
2:11, you're wecome
HOLY FUCK THAT RIFF WAS *SMOOOOTH*
yooo zenyX i found you
Sounds like the teal album
That moment when you find something you didn’t know you couldn’t live without
Weezer - Buddy Holly (1984)
As a surprise to no one, this channel is still amazing!
I appreciate that! More of these 80's style covers coming soon!
The buddy holly rabbit hole is wild
Real
I’ve officially found the most optimal way to listen to Weezer’s Buddy Holly
Dude I don't know how you don't have 10x to 50x more views and subscribers. You definitely deserve it!
I love this version, I've been listening to it since 2022
I love 80's music so much. This is a masterpiece
It was not supposed to sound this good. If you could send this song back to1984 it would so crack the top 10. Totally crushed it out of the park with the sax.
This better than it has any right to be
I got this recommended and I absolutely love this cover. Thank you. God bless
One of my favorite songs combined with my favorite era of music. Love it!
This is rad, holy fuck. It absolutely SLAPS. How does it not have more views?
Now I can listen to this version.
this is actually....amazing.
this sounds like my band class. good job
Haha this is so great! Nice editing skills!
Underrated.
the song is amazing, the video is amazing, i never imagined a video could look so amazing with just 4 colors
erm, actually there's 5 colors ☝🤓
Weezer, if played by The Rentals.
Except the sax would be a violin instead
still a banger to this day
WOW.
I love it.
this is way better than it has any business being!
This is fucking incredible
what the hell? this needs more views
This is amazing! Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
Love it. Another classic cover
I can now die in peace.
I didn't know I needed this in my life, but I'm glad it's here now
incredible!!
That’s awesome
This is pure magic.
Just wow.
Love it. Sharing on The Awesomer.

This one was a fun cover!
Very massively underrated. Wow. Hope God blesses the algorithm towards your direction soon
SO ACCURATE
About 15 seconds in I was going to ditch this, but I ended up really digging it and listening to it all. Good job! 🤩
Another great track from you, man. I have the notifications on, so this dumped right into my inbox. I gotta say I prefer this over the original. Your vocals are better and also the arrangement. And that sax solo! Wow!
Thanks man!
Oh, and, the sax is a keyboard! I wish I could take credit for actually playing it but I can't! I think I need to make the next sax stuff I do sound EXTRA 80's/cheesy haha!
@@MickMazzMusic Haha, you could have, and you did fool me! Doesn't matter, to me at least, if it was real or not. The point is this SOUNDS soooooo 80's!!! Love it!
Pitch perfect!
Thanks!
That sax interlude makes it sound like "Who Can It Be Now?" by Men At Work
Reminds me of Careless Whisper (probably because of the sax)
Rad!!
Pretty good
Not surprised at all this songs fits an 80's vibe. It was after all produced by the late Ric Ocasek.
underrated
nobody tell him
alright you got me.. SUBB'D!
The music is impressive, but these visuals are just amazing
Wunderbar
Brings back PTSD…😂
Epic
Epic from Epic Tom, I'm honored.
Hall & Oates vibes
I don't feel there's a need to reiterate these positive comments, but a engagement boost is always useful, especially give I've watched this seven or eight times
So good !
This is fantastic! Please do more weezer songs :D
im really disoriented rn for unrelated reasons and for a second i thought i started hearing a rick astley song and i started panicking /hj
banger cover tho this is fire
2:11 haha funny
Dope
Very good!
If Wham did Buddy Holly
nice job
is this what the teal album is
George Michael would’ve crushed this!
Somehow this kinda sounds like the Jonas Brothers
To be honest, the original always felt a bit like an 80's song to me? I mean, a bit harder rocking than most 80's music, but I mean, there was even heavier music in the 80's if you looked in the right places.
Such as?
@@seronymus Metallica, Megadeth, Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Slayer, Ozzy Osbourne, & Anthrax are probably the most popular examples of really heavy 80's music.
@@sgt.purp1e Yeah, but most of those were in the blues-esque sphere, not mainstream pop
@@charliekahn4205 what does that have to do with heaviness, this is about heaviness not genre.
Can you please upload it to spotify?
Better than the original.
Funny
What is with those homies?
Dissing my girl
@@Gat3r_ why do they gotta front
What did we ever do to these guys
@@Gat3r_ that made them so violent
