==Overview==
==Overview==
"Turn Me Round" is first known to have been performed at soundchecks in August of 2002. The song was thereafter demoed multiple times throughout 2002 during [[S.I.R. Demos|demo sessions at S.I.R. Studios]] in 2002. Drummer [[Josh Freese]] filled in for [[Pat Wilson]] during some of these sessions. The song was performed live only once, at [[Weezer concert: 08/26/2002 - London, United Kingdom|a concert in London]] on [[August 26]], [[2002]], but no bootleg is known to exist. The song was thereafter seen as desirable by fans over the next several years. The song continued to be demoed in fall of [[2003]], once [[Weezer]] began working with [[Rick Rubin]] on the band's eventual fifth album, ''[[Make Believe]]''. The song was worked on at [[Cello Studios]] until December of that year, but was left ultimately unfinished. The song would remain unheard by fans for several years.

In [[2009]], a recording of the song appeared as track 11 on international releases of Weezer's seventh album, ''[[Raditude]]''. It is unknown if this version is a solo [[Rivers Cuomo]] demo or if other band members were present. In [[2020]], several demo recordings of the song were made available as part of the digital compilations ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]]'' and ''[[Alone IX: The Make Believe Years]]''.
