It's explosive! It's pop! It's Weezer! It rocks! "(If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To" is about a doomed summer romance. But the song doesn't boast any undertones of grief or loss. The whole thing is pretty much in the key of "Whew! That was fun." An awkward first kiss with a cute goth chick at summer camp set to a bouncy, guitar-driven melody. And what's more, it takes place in July! The happiest month in the world! Summer lovin' is so gad dang great. And so is this song. Soak it up.
Grade: A-
Psssssst... Weezer's seventh disc, Raditude, drops November 3rd. Here's a-hoping it'll be better than last year's subpar Red Album.
