Hey help me out guys. I don't know why, but on my new "Maladroit" CD, this is the song under "American Girls", the last track. What's up with that? Are they normally the same song? No, they're not are they? Argh I'm so confused.

i dont find this song to be sad, to me, its more of a happy song about a fantasy place that u can go somewhere inside yourself when things arent that great. Kind of like Alice In Wonderland, but without the weirdness. wow, im a huge dork

I don't think this song is about a "former" relationship. I thought it was more about one of two things. 1) The literal: When you are on vacation, it's perfect, life, the relationship, and once you go back home, it's not the same. Relationships are full of imperfections, and we live with it, but having that week or two of heaven makes you want perfection despite the impossiblity of it. And my other thought: 2) The "honeymoon" of a relationship, where you both act perfect, wanting to be the perfect partner. Then you move on and you act obnoxious, leave your crap everywhere in the apartment, and your partner has to come home to that, and is like WHAT HAPPENED here ?? Hmm... Just a thought.

This is the coolest Weezer song. It makes me so happy. It gives off happy vibes. Like i should be sitting on the beach with a lemonade and one of those little umbrella tooth picks

it does come off as a happy song, but when you look at the lyrics it *is* sad. it's catchy though, and the spike jonze video is so cool.

Fond memories of Caceres... Don't worry, it is also the theme song to the MOVISTAR commercials in Spain. Very popular.
