The old Weezer try-out song 'Rosemary' is one of Cuomo's best compositions.
The lyrics, the droney music, the beautiful melody... I remember around Red when RC was talking about wanting to get into experimental song structures, and touted Angel as being the result... but Rosemary fit the bill 10 years prior.
Is there a studio Weezer demo? A RC demo? The recording we have is admittedly shitty, but the song is so gorgeous I find myself listening to it often. It's on par with the other material from the era, Prettiest Girl, Lover In The Snow... and I'd say in their own 98 way, all of these songs rival Blue/Pink.
Bring it back, boys. If you dare.
As a slight aside, I often thought Fun Time would have been an amazing single.

Yeah yeah, 97 song, but would have been for a 98 album.
RC! This isn't on your 4 or 5 star demo list. Please leak the 3 star demo and/or record this for the next Weezer album. Some of your most touching lyrics. I get that you reused the bridge for the intro/bridge of O Girlfriend, but no one except hardcores will realize this. Keep the chugging music too, plz.
Thanks, your pal

Bump, because Bimbly is right in every respect in regards to how good Rosemary is.

I think of this song as a compliment to Only In Dreams as one of Rivers Cuomo's masterpieces.
