"Wanda" is primarily acoustic home demo written by [[Weezer]] lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]]. It was leaked several years prior to its eventual release on ''[[Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo]]''. In [[1995]], Cuomo was approached by the producers of the film "[[Angus]]" to write a song for the their soundtrack. He read the script and wrote the song "Wanda (You're My Only Love)" (the verses of which summarize the movie's plot). This acoustic ballad was rejected by the producers for not sounding enough like Weezer. Rivers was hurt by this rejection but eventually submitted "[[You Gave Your Love to Me Softly]]", a more up-tempo number. | "Wanda" is primarily acoustic home demo written by [[Weezer]] lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]].
