During an ''[[List_of_Rivers_Cuomo_video_streams#Island_in_the_Zoom|Island in the Zoom]]'' webinar on [[May 22]], [[2020]], [[Rivers Cuomo]] was asked about the song by a fan, upon which Cuomo performed a short segment of the song on piano while singing the words "I'll love you every day" over the melody. Asked about whether it was intended to be a full-fledged song, Cuomo replied: "I can't remember, but the band [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_Seconds_of_Summer 5 Seconds of Summer] comes to mind. Did they record it, or did I send it to them? I can't remember [...] I know [[Jake Sinclair|Jake]] [Sinclair], the producer of ''[[Weezer (The White Album)|The White Album]]'', really loved it and he ended up producing some of their songs, so I think he may have cut it with them, but I don't know if it ever came out." Cuomo and Sinclair helped to co-write the Sinclair-produced song "[[Why Won't You Love Me]]" for 5SOS, but a studio recording of "I'll Love You Every Day" has not been officially released to date.
