==Overview==
==Overview==
Cuomo sings in a twangy, southern voice and plays a banjo throughout the song, which provides for a very goofy, country feel. It was most likely simply a goofy song recorded only for fun and never seriously considered for any type of album.
"Comin' Home" was recorded to 8-track by Cuomo in February of [[1993]], according to the [[Recording_History_-_Page_4#Late_Winter.2FSpring_1993:_Various_8_Track_recordings_by_Rivers.2C_and_Pat.|Weezer Recording History]]. Cuomo sings in a twangy, southern voice and plays a banjo throughout the song, in a style [[Karl Koch]] described as "goofy, country-folk". It was most likely never seriously considered for release on an album. Rivers Cuomo shared the song with fans online in the early 2000s. The demo includes the opening three seconds of Cuomo's next song, "[[When You're Near Me]]", appended to the end.
 
The song is, most likely, unrelated another Cuomo song, titled simply "[[Comin' Home (2000 song)|Comin' Home]]", written in [[2000]].
