+==Overview==
+"Diamond Rings" was first written and recorded by [[Rivers Cuomo]] onto his personal recorder in [[2001]]. The song was first known to have been demoed by Weezer at [[SnS Demos|Sage & Sound Studios]] in late summer of that year, the first sessions to feature bassist [[Scott Shriner]]. The band continued [[Maladroit Demo|demoing]] the song and performing it at concerts throughout the following months, debuting at a [[Goat Punishment]] concert [[Weezer concert: 10/24/2001 - Los Angeles, CA|at the Knitting Factory]]. The only live recording known to exist in fan circulation is from [[Weezer concert: 12/02/2001 - Madison, WI|a concert in December of 2001]]. Though the song did not appear on ''Maladroit'', the song was reworked years later into the song "[[Special]]", an earlier iteration of the song "[[Troublemaker]]", the first track and second single from the band's [[Weezer (The Red Album)|self-titled 2008 album]].
