"Getting Up and Leaving" was one of fifteen songs considered for the band's debut album. A pre-production version done with [[Ric Ocasek]] was recorded on [[November 8]], [[1993]] at S.I.R. Studios, but the song would not make it to the formal album sessions. This version, unlike later recordings, was said to have a "classic Weezer breakdown" similar to those of "[[Surf Wax America]]" or "[[Holiday]]". | "Getting Up and Leaving" was one of fifteen songs considered for the band's debut album.

Unfortunately, this version has yet to surface, as it was not released on the deluxe edition of The Blue Album or as a b-side. | ||
The song was known to have been played live only a small handful of times in either [[1994]] or [[1995]], one such occasion at The Metro in Chicago, IL, but no live recordings have surfaced among fans. | The song was known to have been played live only a small handful of times in either [[1994]] or [[1995]], one such occasion at The Metro in Chicago, IL, but no live recordings have surfaced among fans. | ||
