It is presently unknown if the song will be released in the future.

+According to an e-mail sent out on [[October 14]], [[2018]] to members of the [[Weezer Fan Club]], the music video starring Pete Wentz for "[[Can't Knock The Hustle]]" was originally intended for "Midnight" (and Cuomo later confirmed in an interview that it had been intended for the [[2017]] ''[[Pacific Daydream]]'' song "[[Happy Hour]]" before that). The e-mail stated that "Midnight" was planned to be the debut single for the band's then-upcoming ''[[Weezer (The Black Album)|Black Album]]'', before the unexpected success of "[[Rosanna]]" and "[[Africa]]" caused the single's release to be delayed, with the song eventually being scrapped entirely.
+On [[April 13]], [[2020]], a 24-second clip of the full song was uploaded by a user named Alek to the leak-sharing internet forum [https://leakth.is LEAKTHIS]. On [[April 13]], Alek is understood to have sold the song to an unknown buyer. It is presently unknown if the song will be released, whether by official means or otherwise, in the future.
