On [[February 11]], [[2020]], [[AllThingsWeezer]] user Ben Hogan created a thread asking for clarification regarding whether or not a song titled "Kiss Me In Seattle" was the title of an upcoming Weezer single from ''[[Van Weezer]]''. Other members of the community, recognizing the facetious intent of Hogan's post, began jokingly confirming the song's existence and its various (often contradictory) aspects. On [[February 16]], a "leaked" clip of the supposed song (actually a low-quality fan-recording with crowd chatter imposed over it) was posted in the same forum thread. Rumors of the song soon spread to the Facebook [[Weezer Fan Club|Fan Club]] group as well as the [[r/weezer]] community, with some fans attempting re-creations of the song based on the clip. A few days later, ''Van Weezer'' producer [[Suzy Shinn]] recorded a clip featuring an unknown song and posted it as a story on her Instagram account. This clip then spread across the Weezer internet community, with some speculating that the music was an upcoming Weezer track with some claiming that it was, in fact, "Kiss Me in Seattle." The song, according to some rumors, was planned to premiere on [[KROQ]] on [[February 27]]th, before seeing a full release the following day. When one user on the Facebook group brought up the song, [[Karl Koch]] responded saying simply "No such song title". | On [[February 11]], [[2020]], [[AllThingsWeezer]] user [[Ben Hogan]] created a thread asking for clarification regarding whether or not a song titled "Kiss Me In Seattle" was the title of an upcoming Weezer single from ''[[Van Weezer]]''.
