We wouldn't have gotten Green, but we wouldn't have gotten Pinkerton 2. A very consistent theme with Rivers Cuomo is that he hates doing the same thing. Maladroit is the opposite of Green is the opposite of Pinkerton is the opposite of Blue. OK Human is the opposite of Van Weezer is the opposite of Black is the opposite of White. If Pinkerton had been more successful, we probably would have still gotten something like the Green sound, just played less safe and with more emotional lyrics.
@@TheRenegade... I'm glad someone shares my same take on Weezer. Rivers likes being weird with his songs and experiments a whole lot. No album is consistent with the last, and I find that awesome about them; it's an adventure along River's experiments.
I don't think so Rivers said that he didn't like the direction they were going by that time and he basically just did it out of depression. If Pinkerton was succesful the band would most likely have a break or just seize to exist
The story about this version is that Rivers spent his 1995 vacation on an island. He forgot all of his problems for a little bit and had the time of his life :) also there were japanese girls there
I'd put the vocals WAY lower in the mix to make it more accurate but the instrumental is on point. the solo goes criminally hard. also love that little superfriend synth. before the second verse
This is even better than the original in just about every fundamental way. So much great mixing work here. I think most of us can agree that a LOT of Weezer's music would sound better in the style of Pinkerton.
Wow. Wait til Rivers hears this. Bet he'll dig it... So interested in how you made this! I think you could do an entire video series on just the creative process of your compositions. Well done!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 =w=
Instant subscribe, Pinkerton phase is back baby (would love to hear Haunt You Everyday, Fake Smiles and Nervous Laughter or even a remake of Superfriend in the near future)
On one hand, I respect Rivers need to evolve as an artist. On the other I'd listen to way more Weezer if it sounded like this lol. This is fucking amazing! Just adding heavy guitars is one thing this is so much more than that!
On the green album Island in the Sun is more so about simply being excited for holidays, while this sounds more like wishing for a break from the dull routine, somewhere far away from the rest of society and all of the problems in the narrator's life
O Girlfriend could be good this style too. I had thought about doing it myself before. Good work! I love the guitar work. The drum mixing isn’t quite right but it works well enough. The actual Pinkerton drums don’t have that pumpy of compression. They are still compressed and quite distorted too, especially on certain tracks. But the cymbals don’t pump that extreme. I would be willing to do a mix of this to get it closer(I’m a mix engineer). Let me know.
Yeah, you could give the mix a shot. Drums are not my area of expertise, so I just cranked the limiter to make them sound big. It's effective but also sort of a cheap trick
That song is the reason I started doing these! I wished Weezer would do more rerecordings of old songs like Thrown it All Away. Eventually I decided to just do it myself
make the drum compression way less obvious. i don't remember pumping on pinkerton drums. you can have leveling and distortion without the giveaway compression sound. the drum reverb needs to come more from the room mics. if you are using hall or basic room reverbs, its not gonna be right. if your drum app or verb plugin doesn't have good room options, explore other plugins designed to make room reverbs. rVerb from waves was good for this, but i've seen some recent free ones watch how much/little high end you end up with, I think you could get closer to pinkerton if you make sure your ears are fresh and you AB your mix against it. And make sure you have a few different speakers to listen on
I think I get what your saying. I applied the limiter accross the whole drum track, but with my next recording I'm just putting it on the room and it sounds more balanced. My hearing is a little messed up from all the concerts and I only own one set of speakers, so I usually end up cranking the high end too much. I'll spend a bit more time ABing for the next one.
When you're depressed af but still wanna relax and have a good time.
Hahaha
That describes all of Weezer's music and maybe why I love it so much 😂
Perfect situation would go hard
i thought you were american
this guy gets it
@@spacelol6444 what
I thought I already told you that I'm no six foot, hot look, All-American man, but you keep insisting that I am American. When will you learn?
if Pinkerton was more successful in 1996 maybe they would've continued in this style

@@wickedchild8501 Rivers and the gang just wanna have fun
maybe my mom would been a bigger Weezer fan
Everything is Pinkerton
cool pfp
@@pyrobyte69 thanks man
Will there be Pinkerton versions of non-Weezer tracks?
true
We are Pinkerton
This makes the holiday feel far away, like Rivers wants to escape to that Island in the Sun but he’s stuck where he’s at.
the superfriend melody sneaking its way in makes this so good
So glad you noticed! SFTBH lives on
@@EverythingIsPinkerton-lw6qt the whole arrangement was top tier, really hope you make some more of these!
Now let’s hear the Pinkerton version of “Beverly Hills” and “Pork and Beans”
Please don't touch "Pork and Beans" that's just epic as is.
Please don't touch "Pork and Beans" it's perfect and epic as is.
@@Textile_Courtesan i believe a pinkerton version could be very interesting though
also dementia
Blast Off is the Pinkerton Beverly Hills.
original ver sounds like a happy ending, this one feels like he's narrating what could've been
I think the original is also actually sad. I think it’s a fantasy of a sad man.
Island in the Sun is already bittersweet to me for personal reasons.
This is probably the closest to what it sounds like in my head.
THIS ARRANGEMENT IS CRAZY I LOVE THIS
you understand cuomo's more aggressive writing style during this time so well, amazing work man :>
I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY THIS IS THE GREATEST THING EVER
SOMEONE SHOW THIS TO RIVERS
The story about this version is that Rivers spent his 1995 vacation on an island. He forgot all of his problems for a little bit and had the time of his life :) also there were japanese girls there
of course there was
He he😂
this is such a good album translation, this version would fit so well on pinkerton, great work
didn’t realize i needed this today
Song for this summer
Now, this is very Pinkerton style..
Although imagine how more Pinkerton it would be if it was tuned down half a step.
i wanna hear haunt you everyday in pinkerton style
just listen to the demo
Bro cook so hard with this one!
holy shit
also loving the brian backing vocals
fuck yeah!!! Dude more Pinkerton style the best era of weezer ever
This is the only version of this song I'm listening to from now on.
I'd put the vocals WAY lower in the mix to make it more accurate but the instrumental is on point. the solo goes criminally hard. also love that little superfriend synth. before the second verse
This is even better than the original in just about every fundamental way. So much great mixing work here. I think most of us can agree that a LOT of Weezer's music would sound better in the style of Pinkerton.
we NEED an "only in dreams" pinkerton cover 🙏 amazing work by the way ‼
I would love to hear Slob in this style
I mean Slob is already pretty close to this, Maladroit is kinda like the little brother to Pinkerton nobody really listens to
Thanks for blessing us with your work dude, this is so epic!
Toda la discografía debe de ser solo Pinkerton...
This is beyond amazing! I never would’ve thought I needed this! Great job! 💚💛🖤
This is awesome! I bet “This Is Such A Pity” would be amazing as a Pinkerton track
This version goes hard
Makes me wish the official version sounded more like this
this whole channel is amazing, great job!!
this is unfathomably based
Wow. Wait til Rivers hears this. Bet he'll dig it... So interested in how you made this!
I think you could do an entire video series on just the creative process of your compositions. Well done!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
=w=
amazing work honestly i love what you did with the song
This makes no sense and it's amazing
This sounds legit amazing, I’m fascinated to hear what else you’ve got down the line
Mykel & Carli but Pinkerton? Please
Now let's hear the Green Album version of like, Getchoo or some other song.
Looks like I need to subscribe now
shame the vocals couldn't be re-done in a Pinkerton style because the instrumental is perfect
Now we need Tired of Sex if it was on Green
my favorite Weezer album and my favorite Weezer song, together at last
Why are you so good at this?
I have beena Weezer fan for like literally years. Like 2 almost and this is so good
Beautiful
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CONTINUE THIS IS WONDERFUL
I’m so glad I found this thank you I love it so much
Instant subscribe, Pinkerton phase is back baby
(would love to hear Haunt You Everyday, Fake Smiles and Nervous Laughter or even a remake of Superfriend in the near future)
this is actually so good
found my new favorite thing
pork and beans if it was on pinkerton when
On one hand, I respect Rivers need to evolve as an artist. On the other I'd listen to way more Weezer if it sounded like this lol. This is fucking amazing! Just adding heavy guitars is one thing this is so much more than that!
This is awesome!
banger ngl
THIS IS SO GOOD???
THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE U
That solo! nice
On the green album Island in the Sun is more so about simply being excited for holidays, while this sounds more like wishing for a break from the dull routine, somewhere far away from the rest of society and all of the problems in the narrator's life
The solooooo ❤😝🤓
sounds like something off make believe honestly, really good (not like the party tracks more like hold me and haunt you everyday)
True, I mean Rivers did call Make Believe "A combination of the Green album and Pinkerton"
actually really good !!
this goes craaaaazy
Now this is weezer
God damn you nailed this.
this is phenomenal, fam
O Girlfriend could be good this style too. I had thought about doing it myself before.
Good work! I love the guitar work.

I think some of the songs from Make Believe would be perfect in this style, or maybe some of their demo versions like "Tell Me What You Did."
Haunt You Every Day would work great for sure. Make believe was pretty good, it just needed more attitude
This is so cool
THIS IS SO COOL
YOU HAVE TO DO BUDDY HOLLY
Good job!
Holy guacamole! I love this.
Bro HOW though??
oh my god
the pre-chorus sounds a lot like ive thrown it all alway
That song is the reason I started doing these! I wished Weezer would do more rerecordings of old songs like Thrown it All Away. Eventually I decided to just do it myself
@@EverythingIsPinkerton-lw6qt omg man, when i heard it for the first time i thought the same!
When you decide to go to Okinawa instead of Hokkaido
Damn the song I hate the most turns into a banger
I thought Island in the Sun (If it was on Pinkerton) was Everybody Wants a Chance to be All Alone
Weezgaze
damn this goes hard
WAIT PLEASE PUT THIS OH SPOTIFY WYF
THIS IS GREAT WHAT THE HELL!?!?
HOLY SHIT
Doing God's work over here

Photograph plz
photograph is a need
Green would've went so hard with this style
I like this better than the actual song 😭😭😭
everything sounds better if it was on pinkerton
what if Vyper Syren was on Pinkerton though?
please beverly hills
Very cool. Subscribed to another =w= channel 😂
kick drum fucks up the mix but otherwise this is great
Butterfly? 😅
So...a little bit better, basically.
