On [[January 1|New Years Day]], songs were given fresh tries and some editing: "Island in the Sun", "O Girlfriend", "Hash Pipe", "No More Disappointments", "If You Want It", and "Crab". The next day, on [[January 2]], new versions were recorded of "No More Disappointments", "O Girlfriend", "Hash Pipe", "Knock-down Drag-Out", and "Crab". Additionally, edit work was done on "My Best Friends Are Gone" and "If You Want It", and a brand new recording was started: many attempts were made at "Always". In just six days, Weezer had basic tracks for 19 tracks. On [[January 3]], the day was divided into three parts: redos, editing the reels, and fixing bass lines. For redos, four songs were completely restarted: "[[Starlight]]", "Break-Up", "Teenage Victory Song", and "Homely". For editing the reels, the final best basic takes of each of the 19 songs were compiled onto 6 master 2" tape reels, from the 25 or so master reels they were spread out on. While the engineers did this, the band went to dinner. On [[January 5]], "Starlight" was completely redone. Karl wrote that the song was a struggle, but that the re-do placed the song back in the "favorites" category. Pat was also approached by Jay Leno on Jaywalking. | On [[January 1|New Years Day]], songs were given fresh tries and some editing: "Island in the Sun", "O Girlfriend", "Hash Pipe", "No More Disappointments", "If You Want It", and "Crab".
