"Don't Let Go" is a fan favorite off ''The Green Album''. In the 2005 [[AOL Sessions (2005)|AOL Sessions]], [[Weezer]] lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]] said that the inspiration for this song, as with most of ''The Green Album'', was instantaneous.  He would sit down, start playing something, and within few minutes, the song was written - and he didn't even know what it was supposed to mean.  The song's lyrics tell of a man clinging for his girlfriend not to leave him.  The song was featured on a [[2000]] demo tape submitted by the band to Interscope/Geffen in hopes of receiving approval for a third album[https://www.weezerpedia.com/wiki/Karl%27s_Corner_-_11/07/2000]. The song is instantly notable for it's 1-2-3-4 kick drum intro.
