The original, full-length ''Green Album'' studio version is no longer in print, and was subsequently replaced by a shorter edit. This edit cuts the first chorus in half (ending after "eyes wide"), and both ascending bridge sections were removed from the end of the second and third choruses. This edit summarily replaced the original studio versions on re-pressings of the album, and is heard on the edited "Hash Pipe" video on the DVD ''[[Video Capture Device]]''. | The original, full-length ''Green Album'' studio version is no longer in print, and was subsequently replaced by a shorter edit.

"Kick Me" and "Under Glass" remixes were created by musician {{Wikipedia|Chris Vrenna}} and released on the "Hash Pipe" 12" remix single (Weezer's first 12" single). The single also featured a remix by musician [[Jimmy Pop]], which was also released on multiple international single releases, as well as a one-track CD-R promo in the UK. The two Vrenna remixes were released on Weezer's [[weezer.com|official website]] in 2001 as 128k MP3s with no record noise. | ||
Drummer [[Patrick Wilson]] is featured on the single's cover artwork holding a pack of Natural American Spirit cigarettes. The retail and promo versions of this cover has the brand's logo blurred out due to copyright issues. On the European retail single CD the blurred out logo was replaced with the song title and the Weezer logo. An alternate cover of the retail single shows then-bassist [[Mikey Welsh]] pushing a skateboard upon which a life-size cardboard cutout of Rivers Cuomo is standing, photographed during the [[Yahoo! Outloud Tour]]. | Drummer [[Patrick Wilson]] is featured on the single's cover artwork holding a pack of Natural American Spirit cigarettes.

The video for the song was directed by [[Marcos Siega]], the first of several Weezer videos that he would direct. The premise of the video shows Weezer playing while a group of sumo wrestlers engage in activity. At one point in the video, the wrestlers appear as stand-ins for the band, complete with instruments, miming to the song. In the video, guitarist [[Brian Bell]] employs a maneuver in which he bends backwards, taking the guitar with him, then thrusts his legs in the direction he's bending. This is affectionately known among Weezer fans as "[[The Impossible Bend]]". Siega was specifically asked to avoid referring to the lyrics of the song in the video.<ref>''[[Video Capture Device]]'' DVD booklet</ref> | The video for the song was directed by [[Marcos Siega]], the first of several Weezer videos that he would direct.
