Kid Icarus

"Kid Icarus" (known informally as “Cool Song”) is a demo by Ozma. 
==Overview==
The first of two new songs, alongside "Motorology 3:39," performed by the band upon their reformation in early 2006. The song was in heavy rotation during their co-headlining return tour with the Rentals that summer and was in contention for inclusion on their fourth studio album, Pasadena. On December 27 2014, a studio demo of the song was released as a "belated Xmas present" for the PledgeMusic backers of Boomtown.Pledge Music Backer Updates for Boomtown https://web.archive.org/web/20150227025119/http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/ozma/updates

==Lyrics==
Lift off a veteran
There wasn't much going on back then
So we auctioned off our time
And when it got critical
Well it was only political
I never meant to do you harm
I must have slept through the alarm 
I must admit your wings took me by surprise
I couldn't see any magic when you stared in my eyes
But if you only knew the pain that I took, you'd give me a look
Nothing I say I do
Ever makes any sense to you
But I do it any way 
There's just one rule for us
Daedalus said to Icarus
"Don't you fly too close to the sun
If your wings melt your day is done" 
I must admit the sun took me by surprise
I couldn't see it coming as it stared in my eyes
But if you only knew the fall that I took
You'd open up and give me a look
Come on honey
Open my book, just give me a look
Long nights strange lights
Always the same just a face in a flame with no name 
Slave
Long nights strange lights
Always the same just a face in a frame with no name 
Slave
Long nights strange lights
You primp and you preen for to see and be seen on the scene
Free
Long nights strange lights
You primp and you preen for to see and be seen on the scene
Free

===Appearances===

==Overview==
"Kilimanjaro" was written by Rivers Cuomo while living at an apartment on Sepulveda Boulevard in Los Angeles in 1999.

==Lyrics==
Don't let go
I'm tired of holding to
What it was I used to be
And don't let up
'Cause I can't live without you
It's not as easy as it seems
So what if we both go
Into the night below
Will no one ever know my name?
Solitude
Is heavy as a lead weight
And I don't know if I can breathe
The air is thin
The wind is howling at me
It's not as easy as it seems
So what if we both go
Into the night below
Will no one ever know my name?

If I was the only girl
And you were the only boy
You'd be in love with me again
And I would be happy
Long time in a coma
It's serious
It's got his pink panties
All in a bunch
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll take my ten-speed
I've got a problem
Solved with a gun
That I will do
To get you around
Such spots, few action
You get the boot
Do things, get passion
But not passion fruit
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll go on a killing spree
I think I'll take my ten-speed

Kiss

Kiss (also typeset as KISS) is a rock band formed in the early 1970s. The band's stock in trade is a minimalist riff-based heavy rock with rock/party-themed lyrics and anthemic choruses. But they are perhaps best known for the iconic make-up worn during the more commercially successful years of their activity.
==Influence on Weezer==
Rivers Cuomo was a big fan of Kiss growing up, and their music is at least partially responsible for his early interest in becoming a musician himself. In fact, some may argue that had it not been for Kiss, there would never have been a Weezer.
Rivers mentions the band, as well as members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, in the song "In the Garage," and quotes Kiss lyrics in the song "Devotion."

Knock-down Drag-out

"Knock-down Drag-out" (originally titled "Any Day Now") is the sixth song from The Green Album.
===Appearances===
* Weezer (The Green Album) (2001)
* Keep Fishin' (UK Retail CD #2) (Live)
==Overview==
"Knock-down Drag-out" is thought to be significantly influenced by Green Day. Weezer lead singer Rivers Cuomo spent several years between the band's release of Pinkerton and The Green Album studying Green Day's music, and he may have drawn inspiration from the song "Worry Rock" for "Knock-down Drag-out." "Worry Rock," which Weezer covered in 2003, includes the lyric "A knocked down dragged out fight / Fat lips and open wounds / Another wasted night no one will take the fall." 
The Green-era B-side "Starlight" may have formed the musical basis for "Knock-down Drag-out". The Catalog O' Riffs number for the latter is shared by an entry titled "Slow Starlight", in addition to an entry simply represented as a chord progression: "|C |F |C |F |"

That we're waging on each other for ever more

Say you love me now

Kraft Work

"Kraft Work" is the eighteenth track from the album Free Flight Thru the Universe of Sound by Southern Fried Swing. The song is a parody of the music created by the 1970s' German electronic group Kraftwerk. The song heavily parodies the group's music, imitating them in the instrumentation and lyricism.
==Lyrics==
I am computing
And I am loving
And controlling
And I'm something else
And I'm doing something
And then I'm going to the store
I've got a lovely guy
He gardens all my bushes for me
It's a good time for a story
Come around, and sit right down
I,
Ow!

Kurt Cobain

Kurt Cobain was the guitarist, lead singer, and principle songwriter for legendary Seattle rock band Nirvana, until his untimely death in 1994.
==Weezer connection==
Rivers Cuomo has cited Cobain as a big influence for Weezer, especially the single Sliver, which Weezer often covered during the Troublemaker Tour. The original lyrics to "Suzanne," which Cuomo has taken to singing live since the Memories Tour, read: "Even Kurt Cobain and Axl Rose, when they call you put 'em all on hold." The lyric was modified out of respect for Cobain once he died.
The 2005 Gus Van Sant film Last Days documents the final period of Cobain's life, and some have speculated that a character played by actor Lukas Haas is based on Cuomo.

Kyoko Ito Cuomo

Kyoko Ito Cuomo is the wife of Rivers Cuomo. She was born in Kumamoto, Japan to parents Harutoshi and Kimiko Ito.
A student at a local college at the time, Ito met Cuomo in 1997 at a show that Cuomo performed in Cambridge, Massachusetts (likely either a Homie show at The Middle East, according to Karl Koch, or a solo Rivers Cuomo concert at T.T. the Bear's Place, according to Cuomo). The two were married on June 18, 2006 in Malibu, CA. The couple currently visits her parents in Japan several times a year. They have two children, Mia Cuomo (born in 2007) and Leo Cuomo (born in 2012).
Before relocating to the United States, Kyoko worked for a Tokyo-based magazine called PingMag as an editor and translator. Cuomo would visit her in Japan several times before her eventual relocation. Upon her permanent move to the United States, she became a contributor to PingMag up until its notice of indefinite hiatus on December 31, 2008.
Not much else is known about Cuomo because she remains fairly private.
Her name was the first in the Thank You section of both The Green Album and Maladroit. She also has a design credit on the 2001 self titled AM Radio album.

L.A. Weekly interview with Rivers Cuomo - June 9, 2005

I, Songwriter''
Rivers Cuomo and the search for the perfect hook.
By Kate Sullivan
Eccentricity is a great rock tradition, and usually tolerated with some affection. Jack White can post his surgery photos online, John Frusciante can freely discuss talking to ghosts, and Ozzy can strangle his wife during a blackout — it’s all good. Somehow, though, Rivers Cuomo’s brand of eccentricity brings out the mean streak in journos, and overtakes almost everything that’s written about him. Most recently, Weezer’s Rolling Stone cover, marking the release of the band’s fifth album, Make Believe, followed the received template for Weezer articles: With the headline “Rivers Cuomo Hasn’t Had Sex in Two Years, and Boy, Is He Ready To Rock,” the article portrayed Cuomo as a nutjob who treats his band like shit, lives in a closet and doesn’t own a car in L.A.
Cuomo gets a hard time in part because, unlike regular rock stars, he’s built an iconography as a befuddled mortal, a kid who sits in his garage and dreams of being Ace Frehley. Cuomo stands in for every boy who ever had a metal cover band, dressed poorly and couldn’t talk to girls. There’s enormous freedom in that position, but the price is that Cuomo simply isn’t allowed to do the same things rock gods do.
And unlike other rock stars, Cuomo talks openly about his quirks. He once confessed his fondness for Asian prostitutes in Rolling Stone. And about a year ago, he posted an essay online describing the moral extreme makeover he’d begun in recent years: rigorous meditation, selling his house and car, volunteering at a food bank serving HIV patients, and taking a vow of celibacy. For all his claims of shyness, Cuomo invites attention to the extreme cycles of his private life. That candor is admirable, but does make his protestations of misunderstood normalcy a little tough to buy.
Nevertheless, it’s time to admit that, yes, Cuomo’s kind of a strange guy, and no, that’s not even remotely strange. Because what gets lost among the clichés is a more useful story, and the real reason people care: Cuomo’s music, his band and, specifically, his songwriting process. Cuomo is a deeply devoted student of songwriting, and has gone as far as anyone in the quest for the perfect pop song: seclusion, drugs, meticulous charting of Nirvana songs, attending Harvard to study classical composition. To some, this may seem as bizarre as a vow of celibacy, but, on this count, they’re wrong. Perfect pop is a sacred god, and as anyone who’s ever tried to write a hook can tell you, all sorts of sacrifices seem appropriate when you’re courting the muse. She can be a bit of a bitch, you know.
Just off the road from supporting Make Believe and looking forward to a 10-day meditation retreat, Cuomo spoke to L.A. Weekly from his grandparents’ home in Peachtree City, Georgia.

LAUNCH.com interview with Weezer - August 14, 2001

It's Not Easy Being Green
By Craig Rosen
----
Weezer first hit the scene in 1994 with its thoroughly hooky blockbuster debut (produced by seminal pop god/Cars leader Ric Ocasek) that enticed pop lovers of all ages across the country. Additionally, the album's biggest single, "Buddy Holly," was accompanied by an unforgettable, Spike Jonze-directed video which placed the band into an imaginary episode of Happy Days—one of the best videos of all time, according to VH1. But when Weezer returned in 1996 with the self-produced Pinkerton, it was a classic case of sophomore slump syndrome: The album, dogged by a less commercial sound and a lawsuit from the Pinkerton security company, failed to match the success of the first, and the band took an extended hiatus while leader Rivers Cuomo attended Harvard. Then bassist Matt Sharp eventually decided to take a permanent hiatus to concentrate on his own band, The Rentals. Things were not looking good for Weezer's future.
However, after a successful appearance on the Warped Tour and a few well-received "surprise" gigs, Weezer reunited with Ocasek to record its second self-titled album (aka The Green Album, as opposed to the first self-titled Weezer release, The Blue Album), which has become Weezer's most successful record yet, making the band an MTV and radio favorite once again. Now Weezer is one of the biggest comeback stories in recent memory, but at the same time, it's almost like they never went away.
Recently, the guys from Weezer—Cuomo, drummer Pat Wilson, guitarist Brian Bell, and new bassist Mikey Welsh (who is currently taking a break from the band but promises to return soon)—stopped by the LAUNCH studio in their home turf of Los Angeles to talk about how it feels to be back, and how they fit in the big scheme of things between great bands like Dogstar and Creed (ahem). Here's how it went:

The Human Sexuality Is Pretty Complicated
August 15, 2001 - Southside Festival, Neuhausen, Germany 
Weezer fans had to hold out several years to see their favorite band returning to German festival grounds. The Southside Festival was the place where LAUT was champing at the bit to do an interview with the guys. 
Neuhausen ob Eck – As the arranged talk before the gig was cancelled Weezer thrilled a great number of fans on the Southside first (that partially weren’t waiting for someone else). After the gig it was still burning hot in Neuhausens old airport area but Weezer guitarist Brian Bell was answering our questions while he was strolling in front of the tour bus. He couldn’t hide that he would prefer to bail out into the bus though.
