Originally known as "Place The Blame", the song was first recorded during the [[Steak House Demos|Steak House]]/[[Cello Demos]] of | Originally known as "Place The Blame", the song was first recorded during the [[Steak House Demos|Steak House]]/[[Cello Demos]] in November of [[2001]]. The song's title was changed to "Space Rock" by the time the band recorded it for the [[Glenn Sound Demos]]. During the [[Maladroit demos|sessions for ''Maladroit'']], the lyrics were rewritten (beginning with the demo from [[January 7|January 7th]]) to reflect Cuomo's frustration at the rapport (or lack thereof) he had with online fans at the time. It is unknown why the title "Space Rock" was chosen, as the song bears little resemblance to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_rock space rock] musical genre, but guitarist [[Brian Bell]] described the song as "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacemen_3 Spacemen 3]-ish" in a 2002 interview [https://thebadpennyblog.com/2010/09/17/weezers-brian-bell-was-overwhelmed-by-maladroit-material/]. | ||
