Message Board: Difference between revisions

"Message Board" was written by [[Rivers Cuomo]], likely in late [[2001]] (or possibly early [[2002]]). The songs lyrics suggest that it was written in response to fan criticism on internet bulletin boards of the time, specifically those criticizing {{PN|Weezer}} post-''[[Pinkerton]]'' output. Cuomo's demo, recorded to an Olympus handheld digital recorder,<ref>''[[Alone II: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo]]'', [[Alone II liner notes|liner notes]]</ref><ref>"Maladroit Preview 2021-12-27 14.38.mp3" ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]]''</ref> was released in [[2020]] as part of the demo compilation ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]].'' The song's melody bears a resemblance to the demos "I'll Study You," and "Give Me Your Blessings" though it is unknown if this similarity is a coincidence.
