@@bobblackmesa7914 Damn, I never made that connection before. It's tough to say whether Jamie inspired SImply State or not (or the other way around) But knowing Rivers, he does like re-using his stuff, so there's definitely a possibility
@@videowastoobig according to Weezerpedia, simply state was written/recorded about a year or two before Jamie, so it most likely inspired Jamie. Crazy that that instrumental wouldn't get put into a completed song until 1996

title is too real, even demos of pre-existing song that don't have any different lyrics hit different, mostly the pinkerton demos. also, the fact el scorcho has a demo surprises me since no other non-sftbh songs from pinkerton have demos as far as i know. if i could know where you found these, that'd be great, thanks.
you have to admit it’s still pretty different than the pixies. i think rivers is a little more sweet with the harmonies and crescendos while frank black is a little more manic and maniacal

El Scorcho not starting with "El Scorcho" is extremely cursed
Its because its not el scorcho
in some of their live versions of it they don't say el scorcho (the one in pinkerton deluxe for example)
el scorcho, only in dreams and jamie

Simply state sounds like a mix of "Jamie" and "El scorcho"
Simply state would evolve to be the little part at the end of Blast Off! from SOTBH, which I imagine was eventually translated into El Scorcho
@@videowastoobig the vocals sound like Jamie, specifically the "when I was down you came to me" part

I love weezer demos soo much. Everyone wants a chance to be alone, purple flowers, paper face, let's sew our pants together
Nice compilation! This got me weezing my River till I Cuomo!
Did you brian your bell after
did you mikey your welsh
Did you matt your sharp
remind me how patting your "wilson" went
Update: I did all these things and now I’m Tired of Sex, I would wrestle my Jimmy but I think I would go Undone.
weezer are one of those bands where I think I love their demos more than the actual songs
Because they screw it up with the production almost every time post 1996.
@@BullyMaguire4ever imagine thinking this when White, EWBAITE and OK Human exist
SZNZ was also an excellent project

I cannot express how awesome the demo version of "Haunt You Everyday"
Pinkerton+make belive = this masterpiece
purpleton my favourite album
That part of "volunteers" had me like those pointing wojaks

The album cover really adds to it…

that version of love is the answer definitely fucks
is that bops or slaps but better ?
@@Paul-dw2cl yes, basically.
what Make Believe could have been...
There is a very tight relationship between " Everybody wants a chance to be all alone" and Only in Dreams.

Love is the Answer sure did
this is a really fun compilation of their demos with a nice mix of eras, love it!
i think i should mention that every pinkerton song after why bother dont have demos, so thats not an el scorcho demo

This Shit Is Better Than All Of SZNZ I’ll Say It
Wheres the gurgle wheres the brian bell scream wheres the 'el scorchoooo!' Mum pick me up im scared

I need to burn this onto a cd

On the 12th day of Christmas video was too long gave to me; 9 weezer demos
Fun fact Volunteers is also in Music From Another Dimension ^_^
Make Believe could’ve been great
Tell me what you did is just such a good song. It just sounds so cursed on Make Believe tbh
its like smthn beetwen pinkerton and make believe (and imho cover cool)
Could someone please kindly pair these demos with the recorded songs? Thanks
This cover is amazing
the make believe demos are next level dude
I ❤ you Weezer!!!!

Great compilation:)
wait, isn't Time is Running Out a different version of simple fisherman from simpleton?

Simply state makes me think of Knee Deep At ATP for some reason
Why didn't the tell me what you did pre-chorus got in the official this is such a pity ?!?!?!

el scorcho does not have a demo. Simply State was recorded in 1992 and Rivers used parts of it for Blast Off then El Scorcho.
