==Overview==
"A Glorious Moment" is a spoken word recording from [[April 15]], [[1995]], the day after [[Rivers Cuomo|Rivers]]' leg surgery to correct a congenital leg-length discrepancy, which is largely documented in ''[[The Pinkerton Diaries]]'' and helped influence some of the content from ''[[Pinkerton]]''. A track listed as "1995-04-15 RC After Operation" in [[The 4 and 5 star demos of Rivers Cuomo]] likely refers to this recording.

"It's 5:30 on... the 15th... the day after my operation. Um... I'm, eating saltines, drinking juice. I actually peed... for the first time... on my own. It was... a glorious moment. It was truly glorious. Now I'm going to try to... set up some music to listen to. Goodbye."

==Reception==
Though [[A Glorious Moment Teenage Victory Songs track review|its review]] laments that space is occupied on ''Alone III'' for this song instead of an additional proper demo, Weezer Songblog [[Teenage Victory Songs]] celebrates the documentarian purpose served by the song.
