Heart Songs: Difference between revisions

"Heart Songs" is about all the artists and records that have influenced [[Rivers Cuomo]], from Gordon Lightfoot's "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" when Cuomo was 5 years old, to [[Nirvana]]'s ''Nevermind'' in [[1991]].  The bridge of the song briefly describes the formation of Weezer.

To date, Weezer has not performed "Heart Songs" live.  However, during the [[Troublemaker Tour]], [[Karl Koch]] would come out on stage prior to the encore, set up a record player, and play "Heart Songs".  Cuomo would then come out and smash the record player at the point of the song that recalls hearing Nirvana for the first time.  Scott and Pat would then come on stage, and play Nirvana's "Sliver" as a three-piece.  Cuomo has [[Rolling Stone interview with Rivers Cuomo - June 26, 2008|said]] that "Sliver" was the first Nirvana song he heard while working at Tower Records.
