bit.ly/9IpZvl - Pre-order Hurley with exclusive vinyl and merchandise options Weezer covers MGMT and Lady Gaga all in one song - footage pulled from 5/09 live shows.
I love the "let's have some fun" part, with Rivers throwing the sofa cushion into the crowd. And it is NOT a lip sync fail. The video footage is spliced together from at least 2-3 different performances from May. If anything it's either a video editing fail or -- more likely -- a RUclips encoding fail on Google's end. Weezer rocks -- even when they're all on synths!
I remember loving this when it came out despite not really being into MGMT or Gaga. Hard to believe it's already been almost ten years since this was released. I still really love this mash up/cover.
I like MGMT, Gaga, and Weezer so I guess it’s a triple win for me. (I’d suggest at least trying to listen to Oracular Spectacular or The Fame/The Fame Monster at least once though. If it’s not for you that’s cool but I personally love ‘em.)
Weezer did this same Kids/Pokerface medley/cover at the Del Mar Racetrack near San Diego yesterday. Damn they sounded so awesome live! Rivers sounded incredible...great voice. Pat was awesome on the drums too, not to mention the band as a whole! Oh and big ups to the sounds guys...the bass was heart-pounding and so dope. Weezer rules!!!
So funny, i love it when a band has fun and doesn't care what people will say, they just have fun. That's being in a band's like, doing stupid songs just for fun
These covers and music styles really show just how much Weezer has branched out over the past few years. I think that these boys will be making some very new, (different from the old Weezer style), music. This is hard for a band to do!! Let's see how they do it. I remember when the Smashing Pumpkins changed their style......mixed reviews. I think these covers are awesomely cool!!!!!! :)
How can anyone not like this?! It's two great pop songs combined and covered by one of the only gen x bands that are still relative. Also, if you have been successful in the music business since 1993 like Weezer has, there is not much left to do. Why not go out and have some fun? =w=!
That is a lot of respect for MGMT for sure. Great cover, MGMT should be honored for that. And the lady gaga thing was awesome.. I listen to mostly rock but i think its non human to not think that song is catchy.

"That's what I call getting our groove on. 2008!... I mean 2009!" That man is amazing.

wow 2009 rivers was a different energy
omg >.< his voice is gorgeous for both of these songs.
You gotta love how human he is. He rocks because he is not a rock god. He is a man. A deeply flawed, but talented man.
This is why I love Weezer. The Pokerface bit had me laughing out loud.
seeing the old comments makes me forget weezer were still going strong through the '00s and '10s
I never realized how much I love hearing a boy sing Poker Face until now.
2008!! I Mean 2009!! 😂😂
Love how this was in may too so he was 5 months into 2009
"2008! I mean, 2009!"
Which was their best year
@@endgameisbad2733 please tell me you’re being sarcastic
GAAAH. The synth in "Poker Face" sounds like the creepy Chicago tornado siren.
first time I've heard this. That's an awesome cover. I'm going to go purchase it from iTunes right now. In fact just done. Totally worth the 99 cents.
The more I see of these guys, the more I respect them. Old music, new music, covers... love it all! Love this 😍
for the record...I love his dancing x3
rivers is such an AMAZING singer...he has never lost his voice since 1994 always perfect pitch...
This is the best thing my ears have ever had the priviledge of hearing.
That transition is so smooth👌😩
awww the way he say gracias it's so bonito
i know that i'm years late, but they really popped off here. love them sm
This is too much good all in one! Gaga, Weezer, and MGMT are definitely in my top 10 for best live performers. Dance PArtay
rivers is the most beautiful thing to ever grace this planet when he does a cover he puts the original singer to shame.
Yeah. I think I can say I enjoy every cover Weezer does better than the original, and the originals are often great tracks!
+gpoop23 in all cases bar paranoid android.
+Karen Larson Happens the same with Brain Stew
+Adamanaguchi kun Wow, I didn't realized they covered Paranoid Android. Ballsy.
hail Rivers!
2008- i mean 2009!!!

He doesn't know what to do with his hands! lmao....still awesome, Go WEEZ!
I love to hear Rivers say "I'm marvelous" in this.
I love all three artists.
I like how he messes up the date hahaha. Love Weezer

How are these stupid songs though?
@@TweekDash I think they meant like the mashup of songs is pretty silly, but fun
its 2018 nearly 2019 and Im still reppin this bad boy in my playlist
2018... I mean 2019
the most fun i've seen weezer have on stage in a loooong time!
Absolutely amazing.
Rivers--I was in city park in New Orleans that night when you played this at Voodoo. And MGMT had just done it. And you guys killed it. I love you.

two songs that i love
i love these songsss.
Wow - Rivers' live singing has gotten a lot better since the last time I saw them.
I’m from 2022. Now he sings even better!

love this cover, i still listen to it like 3 years later
I love this song!
great covers!.
Who would have thought Weezer would ever do something like this?!
When he's doing the rap part, he sounds just like gaga.
I agree! Love Weezer and MGMT!
Makes me feel good and im really stressed !!!
electro cuomo sounds so great!
Nosltagia is killing me slowly :(
Man I swear he could remake anything and it would sound awesome every time!!
his voice is frickin amAZING with this song!
4:57 is the best part lol
2008 I mean 2009 XD
this is freaking awesome
That is a lot of respect for MGMT for sure. Great cover, MGMT should be honored for that. And the lady gaga thing was awesome.. I listen to mostly rock but i think its non human to not think that song is catchy.
Sounds great, but it's just not weezer. Glad they are back.
is weezer they are doing covers :.
this is exactly what weezer is
To think this band was the same band that wrote songs like In the Garage, and Only In Dreams... Pathetic. Glad they're back
I know it's a old comment but they pick up in quality again in EWBAITE and the White album. Those are two great albums.
@@byron3718 i come from the future and weezer screwed it up big time with teal and black
This is why i'll love weezer forever, haha i've been listening to them since i was born lol
