- SZNZ: Spring (2022)
Overview
At a Weezer concert in 2023, Rivers Cuomo prefaced an acoustic performance of "A Little Bit of Love" by explaining that he had wanted to write an optimistic song to cheer up his mother, who had gone through difficult times in her life.[2]
The existence of the song was first teased via a Google spreadsheet shared by Rivers Cuomo on his Discord channel as well as on Riverpedia.[3] The sheet compiled various planned concepts for Weezer's upcoming album series SZNZ, listing "A Little Bit of Love" as the lead single for Spring. Cuomo later confirmed the song's placement as the lead single on February 18, 2022 via his Discord server.[4]
Cuomo uploaded a ten-second clip of the song on his Discord channel on February 25.[5] He uploaded the clip as part of a video on his Tik Tok account on February 26.[6] On March 1, the official Weezer YouTube account would upload it to their channel, under the title "Before you know it Spring will be here".
The song was officially announced on March 11, along with the announcement of SZNZ as a whole, with a release date set for the following Wednesday (March 16). An additional clip of the song was accidentally used for that day's Weezle puzzle before being quickly taken down.[7] Multiple solo Rivers Cuomo demos of "A Little Bit of Love" were leaked on December 25, 2022. The song was debuted live by Weezer on the late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! on March 21, 2022.
