"'''Porcupine'''" (Also known as "'''Spend Some Time'''" and "'''I Wanna Be With You'''" or "'''I Want to Be With You'''") is an unreleased song by [[Weezer]] | |||
==Overview== | |||
"Porcupine" is first known to have been demoed, under the title "I Wanna Be With You" at [[Cello Studios]] in November of 2001 during [[Maladroit demos|pre-production]] on ''[[Maladroit]]''. The song was worked on several times during the album's proper studio sessions beginning in December [[2001]]. Six in-progress recordings of the song from these sessions were uploaded to [[weezer.com]] during the album's production, though the song did not make the cut. | |||
''' | The song was, presumably, in consideration for the band's follow-up album, ''[[Make Believe]]'', released in [[2005]]. A song under the title "I Want to Be With You" was listed as being among [[Rivers Cuomo]]'s pre-production demos in February of 2004, during that album's pre-production, according to the [[Recording_History_-_Page_15#2.2F04_Rivers_-_preproduction_demos_at_SIR_rehearsal_studio.2C_L.A.|''Weezer Recording History'']]. | ||
