Huge Guy is the name used by Pat Wilson for a series of demos he made in 1995.

Overview

After the Suburban Advantage demos, Wilson continued to write songs. In between the various Weezer sessions that yielded Pinkerton, Wilson became restless and began to make recordings of songs he'd written. Most of the songs were early incarnations of eventual Special Goodness songs, and these sessions evolved directly into the early 1996 recording of the first Special Goodness album.

First demo: August-September 1995

• "A Song Of Healing And Transformation" (early version of "Pay No Mind")
• "You Know I'd Like To Think" (early version of "I'd Like To Know")
• "It's All So Simple" (early version of "It's All Here In This Book")

Second demo: acoustic October 1995

• "I'd Like To Know"
• "Fatigue"
• "Much Better Thank You" (later became "Pay No Mind")
• "I'm With You Sister" (later a non-LP single)
• "Conquistadors Of Nothing"
• "Congratulations"
• "Pardon Me" (not the Weezer song.)
• "Boy Am I Lucky" (later became "A Fortunate Mistake")
• "It's All Here In This Book"
• "I'm Not Too Proud" (full instruments, electric)
• "Muscle Car" (full instruments, electric - w/ Tom Ackerman of Skiploader)

Third demo: November 1995

• "Congratulations"
• "Pardon Me"
• "Fatigue"
• "I'd Like To Know.." (awesome keyboard/bass lines)
• "Pulling Teeth" (later known as "Pay No Mind")
• "I Believe In You" (later known as "I'm With You Sister")
• "Conquistadors Of Nothing"
