 ==Overview==
-''Harvard Blues'' was recorded in [[1995]] while [[Rivers Cuomo]] was attending [[Harvard University]].  The track is comprised of a recorded phone message from Cuomo's answering machine.  The message was left by a classmate who explains an elaborate assignment using extensive literature jargon.  The recording is played at normal speed out of one speaker and at a faster speed out of the other.  The track concludes with a frustrated scream from Cuomo.  On ''Alone II'', the track purposely segues into [[My Brain Is Working Overtime]] to extend the frustrated theme of the song.
