I mean...how could that not be EVERYBODY'S reaction?? If you're not filled with unrestrained delight when surrounded by The Muppets you might as well just die already!
The story is the director wanted Rivers to smile more but he wouldn't but noticed the only time Rivers would was when he was looking at Kermit. So the director kept holding up Kermit off camera to get him to smile more and you can see it kinda working.
@@alecks00 i remember in pop-up video they said the only way they could get him to smile was to wave like a bird or a rubber chicken next to the camera or something
This has become one of my favorite music videos. Not because it's objectively one of the best music videos, but River's smile fills my heart with so much joy.
If I had a nickel for every time a Weezer music video had them appear on a TV show from the '70s, I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Chris Lagann you muppet lover, people like you make me sick. Go with your puppet plush loving smex somewhere else. I'm not racist towards puppets, but people should stick with their kind.
Can you imagine how cool it would be to see Kermit the Frog wearing a shirt with your band's logo and rocking out to your music? I think that's the true measure of success
It's cool to see that Weezer, after having commercial success, didn't take themselves too seriously. I mean, if you can do a video with the Muppets, actually a very good performance on set, you must be quite confident that if it didn't go over well with fans, you still did what you wanted, the way you wanted too. Blending their music with a "tongue in cheek" approach to their videos has always been a staple of theirs. So, like their videos, these guys seem to have remained true to themselves when it comes to their song writing and their musical creativity. Which has lended, ultimately, to their loyal fanbase and extended success in album and ticket sales over the years.
Fun fact, the music video from 2002 marks the debut for Eric Jacobson as Miss Piggy and Fozzie since Frank Oz became a film director that so happened to retired recently.
I friggin' love Statler and Waldorf. "Hey, they ain't that bad!" "Nope, they're ALL bad!" ahahaha it's always good when a band can have a laugh at themselves.
Ms. Piggy's obsession with Patrick was so funny lmao, and when she was fighting Rivers for the spotlight I was dying shes such a diva and the band played off with the muppets so well
I've had forgotten how cute this video was. It's adorable. It's one of the cutest video ever. And, wow, the song is super cool and super good. I love weezer! I love Rivers' smile in the video, males me feel great... well, everything in the video makes me feel so nice :D It's seems they had such fun time making it.
I love the very genuine smile Rivers has on his face reacting to the Muppets in this video. I can tell he felt the same way that I'd feel making a video with them, as if to say "wow, I've finally MADE it"
The funny thing here and what amused me the most about this video was seeing Patrick tied to the chair Hahahahahahaha and it made me laugh when they helped him release him and he hid as if hiding a lamp hahahahahaha and as if nothing happened he went back to playing the drums. ..😅
This song was a huge part of my childhood, and I never found it until years later. My dad would always play this song and music video, and it became one of those foggy memories that I only remembered bits & pieces. I remembered “hanging from the shelf” and muppets, and used my small knowledge to finally find this song.
No such thing as Weezer selling out... They've never given a fuck about fake rock coolness and posturing anyway. Having fun comes first and last 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
damn man, weezer is such an awesome band. and I'm not saying this because they have muppets in this video, it's just because I haven't listened to them in a while and now I'm listening to this song, tilting my head and doing the beat with my foot. great.
Every time I watch this video, and pretty much all the other music videos, I can't help but feel that they had a lot of fun while filming them! You can just imagine them laughing about the ideas and whatnot and it always makes me happy that they seem really happy about making music!
Instead of thinking negatively, can we just talk about how adorable this video is? I mean come on, a kick butt band and the muppets? I never thought of such a combo but it's still great(-:
I saw these guys in concert twice last year. It was honestly some of the best times I've ever had at a live show and I've been to around 80 shows. You guys might also want to check out Alice Cooper performing School's Out and Welcome To My Nigtmare on the muppet show.
This is a really great song. The chorus melody is great and reminds me of a strong classic 60s hit song. I know Weezer like that doo-wop kind of chord progression but the melody in this is so good and strong.
You'll never be a better kind if you don't leave the world behind waste my days, drown aways, it's just the thought of you in love with someone else it breaks my heart to see you hanging from your shelf you'll never do the things you want if you don't move and get a job waste my days, drown aways, it's just the thought of you in love with someone else it breaks my heart to see you hanging from your shelf oh girl when I'm in love with you keep fishin' if you feel it's true there's nothing much that we can do to save you from yourself waste my days, drown aways, it's just the thought of you in love with someone else it breaks my heart to see you hanging from your shelf oh girl when I'm in love with you keep fishin' if you feel it's true there's nothing much that we can do to save you from yourself you'll never be a better kind you'll never be a better kind whoa, ohh... whoa, ohh... (waste my days, waste my days...)
This was the 1st time I began to actively listen to Weezer. Like, i knew about _Budy Holly_ song (since i saw the video several times), but did not _connect the dots_ until this video.
I love that river's reaction to having muppets near him is unrestrained delight
proof that rivers is actually 2 kids in a trench coat
@@rimickulous he's always looked way too young to be in his 50s
That's the beauty of the muppets :)
I mean...how could that not be EVERYBODY'S reaction?? If you're not filled with unrestrained delight when surrounded by The Muppets you might as well just die already!
@Meleedroit
Rivers has aged amazingly well

Rivers smile is like a child's smile, so pure and innocent
Who wouldn't if he was to perform with the Muppets?

@jekyl lynch I don't see what that's to do with this.
Oops i think you dropped literally all of Pinkerton
I love how Rivers is basically like "OMG ITS KERMIT THE FROG" through his smile the entire video
Rivers said ''we can't find him'' like he lost all hope, like Patrick had been lost for the past 4 months.
he really cares about pat lol
I would be too, just after an hour
Weezer literally is the memeist rock band. I love them so much.
you should be commenting this on the pork and beans music video it's literally just memes
Shara Morgan I agree
+Nick_Master_1246 I agree
Working with the Muppets
@@ballssss433s66 its been 7 years
Weezer is forever a college kid band no matter how old they get.
Yes, and I am grateful for that fact
I couldnt agree more. And I love it.
I doubt River's face will ever age, he'll be 58 and look 24
Weezer will FOREVER be a band that plays feel good music and music that is relatable!!!
I'm 22 and I still love weezer!
I think Weezer will forever hold the record for best guest drummer.
I know this is old but just want to mention, Sesame street is on PBS... That's a non profit public broadcasting organisation.
Nirvana
I agree
Nah, that goes to Nirvana; they got the vocalist from the Foo Fighters to play the drums once or twice!
Nirvana sucks no match for weezer
Rivers has quite possible the most adorable smile I’ve ever seen.
You listen to Weezer?!?!
This is such an underated song from their discography
underrated album

I just saw patrick pick up a lampshade and then he disappeared.
Love that River tried but failed to conceal his excitement around the Muppets, especially the interaction with Kermit at 2:24.

fuck this comment is 2 years old but same omggg

why is everyone talking about his smile?? i thought i just saw the first comment that didnt involve it then i finished reading lmao
Logan Travieso he doesn’t smile much. It’s adorable when he does because his whole face lights up. Especially when he’s with the muppets
same lol
This has become one of my favorite music videos. Not because it's objectively one of the best music videos, but River's smile fills my heart with so much joy.
That muppet did a stellar job filling in on the drums. Give him a medal!
He almost bet dave grohl

It's not selling out when you perform with the Muppets, it's called being awesome. I would perform with the muppters any day.
I would prefer on the one on beverly hills video

Chris Lagann Alice Cooper and Blondie appeared on the Muppet Show. Would they be considered sell-outs?
Chris Lagann you muppet lover, people like you make me sick. Go with your puppet plush loving smex somewhere else. I'm not racist towards puppets, but people should stick with their kind.
why do I always see your comments on every Weezer video
Kermit giving Rivers a hug is like the opposite of a cursed image.
Blessed image
Wholesome image:)
Lol everything is made pure by that image
A blessed image.
Dude, no wonder Kermit dumped Miss Piggy. That bacon ain't loyal.

Prince also jammed with the Muppets at height of his succes!
Aww Rivers' smile makes me want to smile too..he's just too adorable
Seeing rivers smile is great i dunno, its just great to see...
its really humbling and from the rest of his songs he seems to be sad all the fucking time, so justn seeing him smile is really satisfying
Me to just seeing a such lonely man smile while singing a happy song feels great to me
ChrisTheSheriff so you've never seen Buddy Holly then.
K. Neff I have. yeah thats pretty great to see as well
The start of the say it aint so vid... Best rivers smile ever
I know, dental things
Fun fact, the music video from 2002 marks the debut for Eric Jacobson as Miss Piggy and Fozzie since Frank Oz became a film director that so happened to retired recently.

I agree - I love those two; they're brilliant!
Average Weezer fans
Why do the penguins just seem to go perfectly with Weezer?
Penguins rock!
Ms. Piggy's obsession with Patrick was so funny lmao, and when she was fighting Rivers for the spotlight I was dying shes such a diva and the band played off with the muppets so well
i always have the biggest dumbest smile on my face whenevr i watch this
Rivers is just so cute in this video :3
It's nice to see him smile every once in a while
Yea
yeah :)
definitely

That hug from Kermit gets me every time ❤
Muppets will always have a special place in my heart. Weezer and this song on top of that was just endless smiles for me.
This song was my introduction to Weezer, and I have zero regrets
"Drummers..." at 0:17 - I've seen this video many times, but only now noticed Brian's little dig ;)
I wonder if Frank Oz voiced Ms. Piggy? She sounds pretty good in this vs the newer TV show that got canceled. Same for Fozzie.
Samination no it was Eric Jaconsen.
Oz did Ms. Piggy and Yoda.
A puppeteer needs all the acting jobs they can get. There aren't that many puppet jobs out there. Oz got lucky with piggy and Yoda.
Wait you like weezer
I really liked the new show. Disappointed it got canceled
I love how Kermit goes 'YAAAAAY!' whenever he introduces a musical act
rivers' smile makes me smile too ❤❤❤
fr makes me smile too
This should have billions of views!
Rivers looking like a snack here. Love his smiles

Sometimes, there's nothing cooler than innocence.

By far the greatest music video ever made in every possible way.

What a gem. So entangling with the combination of uplifting music with the slightly sad-ish lyrics.
Seeing Rivers smile so much is making me way happier than it should.
I've always thought this song has a very Beatles-esque sound to it. I like it.
Rivers's smile is so precious.
