There are probably some posts going around with people saying what they would wanna see on a greatest hits, but I wanna put my own and I'm too lazy to go through the whole forum to check out one post. So I know a greatest hits list is pretty generic, and I'll post what a generic list would look like.
Generic

2. Buddy Holly
3. Say It Ain't So
4. El Scorcho
5. The Good Life

10. Dope Nose

Kezner32 said:Seriously? Why even waste the brain power on this? A greatest hits package isn't given much thought. It simply re-packages all the songs that were hits and sometimes includes a few bonus tracks so that die-hard fans will buy it.

Let's keep in mind that greatest hits sets are generally not relevant for diehard fans. Casual fans who might have bought 1-2 Weezer albums or those that just liked the singles on the radio might buy this and don't care for rarities and b-sides etc. They want to sing along with Undone and HashPipe and they'll be happy with that. I wouldn't touch this greatest hits thing unless they threw in something amazing and I don't see why they would.

Good Life
Across the Sea
Tired of Sex
You Gave Your Love to Me Softly

(Maybes)
Pork And Beans- it loses its touch after a couple listens, I know simple is good sometimes, just it was too simple
Buddy Holly- its a great song, just never really liked it that much
King- Scott, nice vocals, but I can only hear you sing for so long
Thought I Knew- Another song, pretty good just not compared to say it aint so
Want You To- Catchy, but not weezer
Memories- Its just too structured,verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus, its not a bad song, just a boring song I guess...all weezer songs seem to fit into this category now a days...i miss guitar solos, and groovy break downs we
(Confused)
Island In the Sun- Really over hyped....I don't understand it...its not that good
Make Believe- Song Writing...uhhhhhhhhhhh
Maladroit- uhhhhhhhhhh
Rapitude and Hurley- Great singles but then uhhhhhhhhhhh
Represent- This one is complete trash, who would ever put this on their list
And yes I do realize I'm heavily biased on the Blue Pink and Red albums.

In some far off future, a retrospective greatest hits might be:
Undone
Buddy Holly
Say it Ain't So
Suzanne
You gave your love to me softly
No other one
Pink Triangle
Good Life
American Girls
Pork and Beans
The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived
The Prettiest Girl in the Whole Wide World
All My Friends are Insects

Ok- sorry to disagree, but how can you be on a =w= fansite if you only like Blue, Pinkerton and Red? Yes, they are three awesome albums but real =w= fans can pick songs off every album. I am not a huge Maladroit fan but I love Slave, Burnt Jamb and Keep Fishin'. As for Make Believe... yeah I didn't like Beverly Hills but My Best Friend, The Other Way and Haunt You Everyday? Classic. Plus Crab- not too bad either. You just have to listen again, look at some of our favorites off these other albums and try it out. You think you like Weezer? Immerse yourself in it for a while...you will appreciate it more.

The only way we'd get anything other than hits is if they do what Incubus did. One disk of the hits and the second is b-sides and unreleased tracks.

This would be a pretty rough setlist for me. I could not think of a bigger letdown than ending a Weezer show with "Represent." And for having 27 songs, it's pretty darn light on the Pink. Opening with Greatest Man would be so sweet, though.
