Ok ok, this is the second Weezer related thread I have started in about 2 months, but I want to know, whats your fav? With this new album out (which rules ass for those who dont own it yet) I have had all 4 albums in heavy rotation in my CD player. All 4 are great in their own ways, but Pinkerton is my favorite out the bunch. Either way, my top three favorite songs ranked in order are: 1. El Scorcho from Pinkerton 2. Death and Destruction from Malidroit (WTH is a Maladroit anyway) 3. Only in Dreams tied with Say it Aint so and Susanne for third place. It was a hard choice to make, but it had to be done for the good of mankind. Weezer ownz dood! ---

I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for “In the Garage”, just because I love the lyrics: > [@](#): > > I’ve got posters on the wall > My favorite rock group KISS > I’ve got Ace Frehley > I’ve got Peter Criss I like the part about the Dungeon Master’s Guide, too. However, I also like “Hash Pipe” a lot. Hey, I wonder if they’re going to cover Weezer in the “Top 6 @ 6” thread. ---

The word “maladroit” means inept or awkward. ---

“Hash Pipe” is the one most often stuck in my head, but the one I can sing cold is “Say It Ain’t So”. I dig the bridge part. ---

Hands down it’s " Say it ain’t so." I only own their blue album, which I’m not particularly fond of besides that song and a couple others, but man, I love that song. ---

El Scorcho Tired of Sex is a close second. The whole Blue Album is a close third. ---

I’d have to say my fave is “No One Else,” from the blue album. I just really love that song. “El Scorcho” is a close second. ---

My favorite Weezer song is The Good Life. I listen to that song at least three times a day. ---

el Scorcho gets stuck in my head all the time. Which is bad if people overhear me singing to myself “God damn you half-Japanese girls” ---

I don’t have “Pinkerton” (planning to get it) or “Maladroit”, so my choices are somewhat limited. That being said, it’s a tie between “Say It Ain’t So” and “Undone (The Sweater Song)”. ---

Another thumbs up for “The Good Life,” and, oh, “Across the Sea.” And “Falling for You.” OH! And let’s not forget “Why Bother” and “Pink Triangle!” … Awright, let’s just agree that “Pinkerton” is a top-notch album from beginning to end. Let’s also add the B-side “Suzanne,” if only for the lyric: “Even Izzy, Slash, and Axl Rose/When I call you put them all on hold” ---

I like “Crab” from the green album - it’s just catchy. Undone/Sweater Song is still my favorite. i me me be i am goddamm Pinkerton as a whole is my favorite album, but I haven’t gotten Maladroit yet. ---

I’ll go along with a lot of others and list “Say it Ain’t So” as my favorite, although “Buddy Holly” is so catchy I often find myself singing it at random points during the day; “Undone” is also great. Honorable mention to “Surf Wax America.” Hell, mark me down for the whole blue album. -Dirty ---

Right now it would have to be Hash Pipe. ---

In the Garage is one of the greatest songs in history, never mind just Weezer history. But the whole Blue album is really way up there. ---

Only in Dreams is without a doubt the best Weezer song, ever. I also really like Across the Sea. ---

I’m partial to **Island in the Sun** … yet I admit it is the video that causes that. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-your-favorite-weezer-song/113405.md?page=2)
