==Overview== | |||
'''Mrs Young''' is a collaboration between Weezer frontman [[Rivers Cuomo]] and previous member [[Matt Sharp]], with the latter being the primary songwriter. [[Please Let That Be You]], the fifth track from [[The Rentals|The Rentals']] debut album [[Return of the Rentals]] is a reworked version of this demo. | |||
Mrs. Young is listed as "[[Jamie]] II" on the [[Recording History]], and like Jamie, is an ode to [[Jamie Young]], the band's lawyer at the time of their signing to [[Geffen Records]]. Sharp wrote the song, then later asked Cuomo for help with "some parts and harmonies" as the Recording History states. | |||
==Live Performance== | |||
At Cuomo and Sharp's reunion performance show at Cal State Fullerton, this song was performed live. This performance can be viewed on youtube. During this time, the two were working together on a collaborative project, which was never released. | |||
