Weezer, una de las bandas más icónicas del rock alternativo, se formó en Los Ángeles, California, en 1992. El grupo surgió de la unión de cuatro talentosos músicos: Rivers Cuomo (vocalista y guitarrista), Patrick Wilson (baterista), Matt Sharp (bajista) y Jason Cropper (guitarrista). Esta formación inicial sentó las bases de lo que sería una carrera larga y llena de éxitos.
Rivers Cuomo, el motor creativo del grupo, había pasado por diversas experiencias musicales antes de fundar Weezer. Influenciado por bandas como The Pixies y The Beach Boys, Rivers comenzó a componer canciones que combinaban letras introspectivas con melodías pegajosas. La visión de Cuomo y la química entre los miembros de la banda rápidamente captaron la atención de las discográficas.
En 1994, Weezer lanzó su primer álbum de estudio, comúnmente conocido como “The Blue Album” debido a su distintiva carátula azul. Producido por Ric Ocasek de The Cars, el álbum fue un éxito inmediato tanto comercial como críticamente. Canciones como "Buddy Holly", "Say It Ain't So" y "Undone – The Sweater Song" se convirtieron en himnos generacionales.
El éxito de "The Blue Album" catapultó a Weezer al estrellato. Sus vídeos musicales innovadores y llenos de humor también ayudaron a establecer su imagen pública. El vídeo de "Buddy Holly", que homenajeaba a la serie de televisión “Happy Days”, ganó varios premios y se convirtió en un clásico de la era de MTV.

I tried taking a picture of you
But when I look in, nothing comes through
Sometimes I wonder if you're just a ghost
And I wonder what's haunting you most
I tried describing you to all my friends
But they just told me to polish my lens
Your sweet, generous, my sweetheart
I don't even know where to start
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I looked you up on Ancestry dot com
There was no record of dad or of mom
It's like you fell straight out of the sky
And left the scholars to figure out why
I like to think that I know quite a lot
But with you it feels like I forgot
I wish that I can explain who you are
But when I try to I never get far
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
We've come so far
Now here we are
We made it through the night
I know we will
Be strong, cause still
Everything will be alright
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a los for words
