'''"Midnight"''' (previously titled and/or possibly subtitled '''"Cardigan Disaster"''') is an unreleased song by [[Weezer]].
==Overview==
==Overview==
"Cardigan Disaster" was first premiered live acoustically by [[Rivers Cuomo]] at a [[Rivers Cuomo concert: 05/09/2018 - San Francisco, CA|solo show at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco]] on [[May 9]], [[2018]]. Cuomo performed the song one additional time at [[Rivers Cuomo concert: 05/30/2018 - Los Angeles, CA|another concert]] on [[May 30]].
Rivers Cuomo confirmed in a [[2020]] [[Riverpedia_archive_-_08/25/2020#Midnight_.28Cardigan_Disaster.29|Riverpedia entry]] that the title "Cardigan Disaster" came to him in a dream.


According to an e-mail sent out on [[October 14]], [[2018]] to members of the [[Weezer Fan Club]], the music video starring Pete Wentz for "[[Can't Knock The Hustle]]" was originally intended for "Midnight" (and Cuomo later confirmed in an interview that it had been intended for the [[2017]] ''[[Pacific Daydream]]'' song "[[Happy Hour]]" before that). The e-mail stated that "Midnight" was planned to be the debut single for the band's then-upcoming ''[[Weezer (The Black Album)|Black Album]]'', before the unexpected success of "[[Rosanna]]" and "[[Africa]]" caused the single's release to be delayed, with the song eventually being scrapped entirely.
