Start of with some of the popular stuff, Buddy holly, Island in the Sun, Pork and Beans. Then show them some music videos because Weezer has the best music videsos ever. This way they can see what Weezer is really made of.

I'd go with

or maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe

But then I guess it all depends on the person I'm introducing them to. If they are into Sarah McLachlan, I'm more likely to put on 'Island in The Sun' than 'Dope Nose.' Nahmeen?

I would probably introduce them to the blue album. I think say it aint so and my name is jonas are two good starters. Then maybe go through one song from each album, el scorcho, then maybe photograph, keep fishin, perfect situation, and then leave the rest up to them! =w=

To show how they've progressively gotten worse?

i guess i'd start with hits like maybe "buddy holly" and "perfect situation" and "island in the sun" and be like "oh, you think those are good? wait til you hear something off pinkerton"...

awesome thread title, by the way.

The Sweater Song worked for me.

And I got my dad with Say it Ain't So.

it really depends who it is I guess. And luckily, Weezer's got something to offer fans of most anything.

I have a lot of notches on my Weezer bedpost...

(...wait a sec, that metaphor isn't working out so well any more.)

Anyway, I usually start with Blue, although I was de-Weezer-virginized with Green, oddly enough (I think Maladroit was the latest release at the time?) It was a burned CD, and I was 16 and an idiot and so I colored the top of it with a green crayon...

After a few tracks from that, I started downloading whatever had a fun looking title, and I got into a lot of Pinkerton/B-sides that way--El Scorcho, Tired of Sex, The Good Life, Burndt Jam, Dope Nose, etc.
