Weezer Songs

This is a list of the best of the best of Weezer songs. I have tried to place them in order, but honestly, that's not really possible.

1) In The Garage. This song held the top spot in my mind for a long time. It's got all the components that are distinctively Weezer, from the grungy chord riffs to the geek soaked lyrics.

2) Tired of Sex. This is another classically Weez song. Full of that signature Rivers angst.

3) Pink Triangle. What this song offers is some of the melodic side of Weezer.

4) Say It Aint So. What a great song. Kind of the Weezer anthem.

5) Mykel & Carli. This is a killer song that really grabs you when you first hear it. It is a b side so its rarity is a plus as well.

6) Devotion. Another less heralded, but awesome nonetheless, Weezer song.

7) My Name Is Jonas. This song has everything needed to kick off an awesome session of jamming to Weezer. It is most enjoyable when the goal is to listen through the entire album. So Next time you're on a road trip and need a mid drive pick me up. Blue album, started off right with some Jonas.

8) Pork & Beans. I don't necessarily think this song would make this list had it been written a decade earlier, but it rings true to the Weezer of old. Now don't get me wrong, Weezer's new stuff is good, but alot of stuff is good. Nothing has the distinction though of some old school blue and pinkerton. Pork & Beans took me right back there though.
