David ChisholmGUEST
Um, and on the record [coughs] all the songs, there's three songs in the key of, in A or A minor.
David ChisholmGUEST
Um, and they're all songs that are specifically dealing with wanting what he doesn't have or not wanting what he does have in terms of the w- women that are in his life, right? And so El Scorcho is one of those songs, right? That's the next one.
RichHOST
Mm-hmm.
David ChisholmGUEST
Uh, Pink Triangle is in, is back to G, and that song is about how things suck.
TJ PetersonHOST
Well, it's just like, that's a lot of specific local knowledge to be like wildly far away from where you're referencing, but Hey, props to you.
TJ PetersonHOST
they shouted out Newfound Glory and El Scorcho I asked you to go to the Newfound Glory concert that was cool and if you're at all a Weezer fan this concert they have put so much effort into all these like elements of the show like I'd say gimmicks for lack of a better word it's worth seeing alone for that I would say yeah that was cool
Jacob LangsamHOST

Jacob LangsamHOST
Not much to add.

AllieHOST
Um, I don't even know if this album goes over an hour, honestly.
DerekHOST
It's short.
AllieHOST
No, okay.
AllieHOST
[laughs] Uh, so are there any, any songs or, like, is there a particular time in your life when this album meant a lot to you?
DerekHOST
Um, not necessarily meant a lot, but I did get very much into El Scorcho.
DerekHOST
Um-
Ed BiggsHOST
Fluffy, who we've occasionally spoken about, they're at 52 with Nothing.
Ed BiggsHOST
Weezer scandalously miss out on the charts with El Scorcho, which is the one and only single from Pinkerton, which is a perfect record.
Ed BiggsHOST
That only gets to number 50.
Ed BiggsHOST
My apologies
RalphHOST
There's a few songs that are kind of funky, but it's buried under guitars.
RalphHOST
El Scorcho's kind of funky, but not too funky.
RalphHOST
I think also when he's talking about funk, he's not talking about, like, 70s funk or Prince who had a, you know, multiracial band.
RalphHOST
He's talking about Red Hot Chili Peppers, I think.
MichaelHOST
Maybe it's just drum loops or something.
MichaelHOST
And it's disappointing that they proactively avoided that.
RalphHOST
I think El Scorcho is that.
Rim HeadleyGUEST
That's an affectionate nickname that we give to one of the demons that regularly tortures us, by the way.
ChrisHOST
Come on, man.
ThomasHOST
