Weezer Weezer (Teal Album)

Hell nah, dawg.

Their covers are pretty much just exact replicas. Loving tributes. And that is ok. Crystal clear lyrics, great quality, extremely well done. Some of these songs just needed a little crispness to them that Weezer brings. Great fun.

Agree with Anon. For shivers down the spine try M.Ward's cover of Bowie's Let's Dance, may offend but creates a new classic to stand alongside the original. Similarly the Chris Whitley/Jeff Lang cover of Dylan's When I Paint My Masterpiece, is a worthy fresh new take. Long Black Pete

I do not understand the fascination with their covers. They don't try to do anything different with the songs, they just sound like they are singing karaoke to the originals
