Contents 1 Reception 2 Music video 3 Track listing 4 Chart performance 5 References 6 External links Reception The song has received positive reviews from Billboard Magazine and Allmusic Music video The music video was released on October 23. Directed by Marc Webb, the music video revolves around the members of the band living a normal life until a beautiful lady played by Odette Yustman comes to the town. Her callousness and disregard leads to multiple band members being injured while trying to impress her, leaving only frontman Rivers Cuomo unhurt, though upon seeing his injured bandmates, Cuomo rejects the woman, to their approval. `` Marc Webb has created a kind of ' 50s small town for us to live in, '' Cuomo told MTV, `` And basically it 's just populated by the four members of Weezer. So we 're just hanging out, driving around, filling up our trucks with gasoline. Basically being guys, and that 's what Weezerville is like. '' `` The idea of the video is really simple : It 's a town that 's made up of clones of Weezer. There are multiple versions of Brian ( Bell ) and Patrick ( Wilson ) and Scott ( Shriner ) and Rivers, and they 're just going about their business, until one day, this woman shows up, '' Webb continued. `` And after that, everything basically goes to hell.
