Buddy Holly: Difference between revisions

Strangely enough, the huge success of Buddy Holly's music video confused and angered Cuomo. He believed fans only liked Weezer because of this "gimmicky" music video, and weren't taking his song writing seriously. These feelings played a large part in causing Weezer's more serious, straightfoward sophomore album ''[[Pinkerton]]''. During promotion for ''Pinkerton'', Cuomo refused to have any of their music videos contain anything even remotely gimmicky, and many fans and critics blame that decision as the cause of the album's eventual commercial failure. This attempt at a straight-forward, less bubble-gummy music video can be seen in [[El Scorcho#Music video|El Scorcho's music video]].
