EntertainmentWeekly.com interview with Rivers Cuomo - March 18, 2002

River's Edge
Weezer asks stations not to air new album. After making the tracks available to radio stations, the press, and on their website, the band has been asked by their label - Interscope's Geffen - to stop.
By Brian Hiatt
Why are Weezer asking radio stations not to play their fourth album, Maladroit? It's simple: The band sent tracks to the press and radio and posted MP3s on their website, but they still haven't submitted the CD to their label, Interscope's Geffen. Says frontman Rivers Cuomo: "They were very upset and said we have to stop. I don't know what the hell I'm doing, so I didn't really have a choice." Cuomo says the self-managed Weezer "started to veer off into outer space" last year and stopped speaking to Geffen after a fight. ("They said [the CD's demos] sounded too much like Lynyrd Skynyrd.")
With "Dope Nose" getting radio play, Cuomo says Geffen now wants to release Maladroit, which the band ultimately recorded on their own dime. But Cuomo's not sure he'll give the label the masters, though he knows that could spell trouble. "Unfortunately, they have the right to claim ownership of the tapes. It's totally unfair." A label rep declined to respond, except to say, "When Rivers is ready to put out his record, Geffen is ready to put it out."

Entertainment Weekly interview with Mikey Welsh - March 15, 2002

This Week on the Music Beat 
 
By Rob Brunner 
----
MIGHTY MORPHIN — In other lost-and-found news, erstwhile Weezer bassist Mickey Welsh has turned up in an ace new Boston-based band fronted by former Mighty Mighty Bosstones guitarist Nate Albert. Dubbed the Kickovers, it's a marked departure from Albert's former ska-punk outfit. 
"I wanted to get back to other stuff I like: Dinosaur Jr., Husker Du, the Replacements, Wilco, X," says Albert. 
Their debut album, Osaka, is due out April 23 on Fenway, the new label started by ex-Grand Royal poobah Mark Kates. 
So what happened with Weezer? Welsh—who disappeared from the band's lineup last year under mysterious circumstances and hadn't been heard from since—won't say too much "for legal reasons," but he isn't pleased. 
"I took some time to get some help for something and they basically took off on me, abandoned me," he says. "The way it went down was pretty lame. Being in a band with guys that long and being as good friends as we were, having them just kind of split was definitely cold."

===Appearances===
*Released online
==Overview==
"Ev'ry Night" was written in June of 2000, and is first known to have been recorded that same month, as a band, to a DA-88 at Cole Rehearsal Studios in Los Angeles.

==Lyrics==
Ev'ry night, when I go out to the clubs 
The wrong way is the only way that I rub
I stand there oh-so still 
I must be on some pill 
Cause no one wants to see that I'm alive
Ev'ry night, when I go out to the bars 
People think that I just came down from Mars
I don't say anything
This is why I sing
To get these stupid feelings off my chest 
Now, Now
Ev'ry night, when I go out chasin' chicks 
I drop a line but nothing seems to stick
I fumble for my shoes
I sing the white boy blues
I get to suffer again some other dates
Now, Now
I don't say anything
This is why I sing 
To get these stupid feelings off my chest
Now, now

Never you fear, never you fret

I will be here till the day that we die
And fires may burn in the sky
Red devils call: "It's do or die"
I won't leave you ever again
You were the one raising me up
Making my bed and filling my cup
I was a mess, you were a dear
Help me to face all the voices I fear
And fires may burn in the sky

We were doing my laundry, girl
After the late-night feud
After we fold the laundry, girl
What are we gonna do?
Ten nights they calmed you down
In a trashy room
As ten angels descended
On our blue moods
Every time your silent world
Every time you choose
Every time I'm with you, girl
Every time in blue
Every time in blue
We'd always take the longest roads
But what does that prove?
We only make each other tired now
Too tired to move
I hate to see you stressing out
'Bout what you cannot do
Paris, she's too pretty for us
Well, maybe not for you
Every time your silent world
Every time you choose
Every time I'm with you, girl
Every time in blue
Every time in blue
Every time your silent world
Every time it's true
Every time I'm with my girl
Every time in blue

Everybody Go Away

"Everybody Go Away" (sometimes rendered as "Ev'rybody Go Away") is a song by Weezer.
===Appearances===
*Guitar Center: Fresh Cuts Vol. 4 (2009)
*Alone VII: The Green Years (2020)
==Overview==
"Everybody Go Away" was recorded at home studio at 6145 Rodgerton Dr. in Los Angeles in October of 2000, in preparation for the recording sessions for The Green Album. The song is not known to have been attempted in the studio. In 2009, the demo was released on the compilation CD Fresh Cuts Vol. 4, given out for free at Guitar Center locations. A truncated version of this demo appeared on the demo compilation Alone VII: The Green Years, released in 2020.
It is not definitively known whether "Everybody Go Away" is a solo Rivers Cuomo demo or a full-band demo with Cuomo performing all of the vocals. The song's presence on Alone VII suggests the former, though Karl Koch has suggested that it's the latter.Weezerpedia Discord Q&A with Karl Koch - September 2022Weezer Recording History - Page 12
Neil Young, Weezer's tour manager from 2000 (not to be confused with the musician of the same name), is credited as a producer on the song.
==Lyrics==
Everybody go away
There's just one thing I can say
I wanna be alone
And turn off all the phones
and sit around and space out all the day
Everybody shut your mouth
I'm vacationing down south
Where nobody talks, moves around or walks
Heavier than feathers on the sea
If you left it up to me
I'd turn on everyone
If you left it wild and free
I'd break that chain and burn this off
Everybody shut your mouth
I'm vacationing down south
Where nobody talks, moves around or walks
Heavier than feathers on the sea

Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behavior
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world
I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the-
Say that you'll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it?
Everybody wants to rule the world
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

*OK Human (2021)
==Overview==
Rivers Cuomo alluded to the song's existence to fans through the chat website Riverchat in August of 2020, mentioning that it was the song he was most excited for fans to hear. On September 22, however, he confirmed via Riverchat that the song (along with "Spell It Out") had been removed from the track list, adding that "it doesn't work going into bird" (referring to the track "Bird with a Broken Wing"). Despite this, on January 18, 2021, OK Human was formally announced, whereupon the song title was confirmed as the tenth track. Cuomo clarified to a user on Riverchat that same day that "another track took its title". On January 16, 2021, Rivers played a small clip of the original version of the song, and also revealed that it was slated for release on the Autumn installment of the SZNZ albums, before Jake Sinclair gave it the ax.

Second thoughts about what you needed
A second left and you're up to speed
Got lift off
Now that you're up in the air
It feels good again
You know there was nothing
To be afraid of
You can see miles and miles 
Of land below
Just out your window
Sit back have another cocktail
Seat back
Listen to the captain say 
Everything is fine
Everything is fine
