"This Is Such a Pity" is the first released Weezer song since "[[Butterfly]]" to have no distortion.  The song employs the use of a Casio keyboard and has an 80s, [[The Cars|Cars]]-like feel to it.  Rivers has expressed that "Pity" might be his favorite song on the record.  Although technically a single, the song had no promo video or retail single.  It marked the fist time that the single count for a Weezer album reached beyond three.

The song was released in early 2006 as ''Make Believe's''' fourth single, but only at the promotional level.  No video or retail singles were produced.  The version found on the promo CD single is a 'radio mix', and is slightly different than the album version.  The only real noticeable difference is the lack of a drum fill near the end of the song.
