There will forever be a soft spot in my heart for Weezer…

“Buddy Holly” was the first music video I can remember watching. “Undone (The Sweater Song)” was probably the first alt-rock song I ever heard. (In case you’re wondering: No, I didn’t grow up with cable.) Through their various iterations and levels of suckiness, Rivers Cuomo and whomever-he-happened-to-rock-with-at-the-time always, at the very least, created pop ballads with catchy, cutesy appeal. Their newly released track, “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To,” exceeds most of their previous post-Pinkerton efforts in terms of jubilation with a slight reduction in corniness of lyrics. Here is a track worthy of being snuck into end-scenes of some WB teen drama… or is it CW now?

Yeah, it’s that powerful…
