==Background==
"'''Semper Fi'''" (also known as "'''Higgs Boson'''") is a song by [[Rivers Cuomo]].  
Semper Fi is a song from ''[[Ecce Homo]]''. It is an instrumental. It is possibly being considered for a future album.
==Overview==
 
Originally titled "Higgs Boson", the melody for "Semper Fi" first appeared a string and piano composition appended to the end of the "Rocked Out Mix" of "[[Represent]]" from the deluxe edition of {{Possessive name|Weezer}} [[2010]] album ''[[Hurley]]''. The song was demoed during the years leading up to the release of what would become the album ''[[Everything Will Be Alright in the End]]'' in [[2014]], and was reportedly considered for the scrapped album concept ''[[Ecce Homo]]''.
On December 17, 2020, as part of an update to the most requested fan demos list, Rivers mentioned that "Semper Fi" is also known as "Higgs Boson", of which versions 1-5 have been released as part of ''[[Alone XI: The EWBAITE Years]]''. According to the initial file list, a Semper Fi version 7 exists on Rivers' hard drive.
