Rivers's talent for songwriting is apparent in this new song, and I quite like the harmonies and the lack of cheesy 80's guitar solo, but still, there is nothing interesting or innovative in this song. It is a nice little song but nothing more. It's generic. It will be forgotten. If Rivers could sit down and challenge himself to write something more creative (like the red album's "Greatest man that ever lived") and then put in a little bit more sincere rock n roll spirit, it could work. The man has it in him. He's a great guitarist. Unfortunately he's happier writing pop songs for frat boys and girls who wear way too much pink. Thus, we get songs like this that feel so incredibly phoned in. Weezer could be so much more, but instead they're just squandering their talent and settling for sappy garbage. I'm sorry, was that a bit harsh? Pat Wilson himself once said "You're not a true weezer fan unless you hate weezer".

Given the Weezer quality scale these days ranges from the atrocities of 'Beverly Hills' or 'We Are All On Drugs' to something passable such as 'The Angel And The One' or 'The Greatest Man..', this ranks with the latter. Not too bad... I quite like it!
