"Save Me" is, seemingly, unrelated to [[Save Me (2003 song)|the 2003 demo of the same name]] recorded during [[Office demos|sessions at the band's rented office space]]. The [[Recording_History_-_Page_14#09.2F07.2F03_acoustic_Office_demos|Weezer Recording History]] makes no distinction between the two songs, listing both with the [[Catalog O' Riffs]] number of 610, and the demo compilation ''[[Alone IX: The Make Believe Years]]'' lists both songs as "Save Me." The [[2004]] version of "Save Me" is a reworking of the Cuomo demo "[[I Was Made for You]]" (also listed as #610 in the [[Catalog O' Riffs|COR]]). Another demo titled "[[Someone Who Can Love]]" is listed in the Recording History as an early iteration of this version of "Save Me," though it remains unheard. Another title, "[[Please Save Me]]," is listed in the Recording History as having been recorded on [[December 19]], 2003, but it is unknown which version (if any) this demo is related to.

A demo recorded by [[Rivers Cuomo]] in [[1999]] titled "[[Somebody Save Me]]" bears a similar chord progression to this version of "Save Me," though it is unknown if this is is a coincidence.
