| so who else cries when they hear this song? but not the studio version. On the weezer DVD there's a live version from Carli and Mykel's memorial concert, and its only Rivers on stage... anyone who ever lost anyone they care for has to feel tears coming when ther hear this song....i know i do... "til the school bus came and took my friends away now im all alone to sit and think all day..." wow | |

| meh, they were en route calgary, canada...but they died in colorado. wouldnt it be ironic if they got hit by a bus or something considering the line: "Till the school bus came and took my friends away" i think that would be freaky, but it was a 1 car accident. this song was written before they died. | |

| what do you mean what does this song mean? it makes sense just reading it. he knew two girls - mykel and carli - who he was friends with. they looked after him and gave him a 'rad' red hat, which he treasures since they were taken away by the school bus. | |

| this is where jimmy eat world got the whole song from pretty much. "hear you me" was orginally released on a tribute album to mykel and carli about a year before 'bleed american' was released. i don't think it was performed by jimmy eat world though, i think it was done by the lead singer (jimmy)'s side project, go casino. but in any case, 'hear you me' is actually about the deaths of the same people rivers is singing about in this song | |
