 ==Overview==
-According to the [[Recording History - Page 14|Recording History]], the song was first demoed acoustically as "[[Save Me]]" in [[2003]]. The version known as "I Was Made For You" from ''[[Alone]]'' is listed in that album's liner notes as having been recorded in Spring of [[2004]]. In June of that same year, the song was known by the title "Someone Who Can Love". The song was worked on, under the title "Save Me", throughout the production of ''[[Make Believe]]'', receiving a rough mix as late as February of [[2005]], though it did not appear on the final album. Please Note: In 1998, Rivers created a song called Somebody Save Me, which had the same chord progression and type of melody for the chorus. It is unknown if this song stemmed from that.

The song was thereafter reworked under the title "[[Someone Who Can Love]]" and then "[[Save Me (2004 song)|Save Me]]." The latter was recorded by [[Weezer]] throughout the production of ''[[Make Believe]]''. The song was finished in October of 2004 at Grandmaster Recorders Ltd., though it was cut from the final track list and thus received no final mix. Several solo pre-production demos of "I Was Made for You" were released in [[2020]] as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone IX: The Make Believe Years]]''.
 The chorus to "I Was Made for You" was later re-appropriated into the bridge to the song "[[It's Always Summer in Bikini Bottom]]", released in [[2021]] as part of the soundtrack to the film ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_SpongeBob_Movie:_Sponge_on_the_Run The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run]''.
