"This Is Such a Pity" is the first released Weezer song since Butterfly to have no distortion. The song uses Casio keyboard synths and has an '80s feel to it. Rivers has expressed that it might be his favorite song on the record. The song was released in early 2006 as ''Make Believe's''' fourth single, but no official music video was ever made. | "This Is Such a Pity" is the first released Weezer song since Butterfly to have no distortion.
