{{Featured song code|songname=Hey Domingo!|spotify=|youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LP9Vf5weTwI|image=Riverscuomo aloneviii.jpg}} | |||
"'''Hey Domingo!'''" is a [[Weezer]] demo recorded in [[2002]] in contention for the band's [[Album 5 demos|sessions for the band's planned fifth album]]. It was released for free on [[weezer.com]] that same year, and solo [[Rivers Cuomo]] demos followed in [[2020]] as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]]''. | |||
The song was likely inspired by the 2002 World Cup, held in Korea and Japan. {{Wiki2|Daegu,_South Korea|Daegu, South Korea}}, one of the host cities of that year's tournament is mentioned in the song. Cuomo the World Cup and Soccer in later songs "[[My Day is Coming]]" and "[[Represent]]." The song shares a [[Catalog O' Riffs]] entry number with the unheard song "[[Don't You Let My Heart Down]]," as well as the Weezer song "[[Peace]]" from the band's fifth album, ''[[Make Believe]]'', though "Peace" bears little resemblance to "Hey Domingo!" | |||
The significance of the phrase "Hey Domingo!" is unknown, though the name was later briefly used as the name of a label created by [[Todd Sullivan]] (the A&R representative who originally signed Weezer to [[Geffen]]) in [[2005]]. | |||
