#RiversDemoFlood 2042: Second Best Hugger in the World 13 2011-2014 From EWBAITE This is probably the best version we have of Second Best Hugger in the World. It's a catchy song with some really clever lyrics. Although we never find out who the best hugger in the world is. Most of the...

Just a reminder that these Haitian immigrants in Springfield -- who came here legally, did everything they were asked to do and more -- became a target of federal crackdowns because the white nationalist vice president shamelessly spread racist lies about them.

i think it's pretty damning on the last decade of The Democrats that a guy can go "actually immigrants are good" and it's viewed as a remarkable act of political messaging

Which became Show Me Who You are, which is, in my opinion, the best version of this tune. As for Stupid Robot, it's alright. It's not as good as the earlier versions of the song. And not as good as the final album version. And it's no Happy Robot. ⭐⭐

I say mid-life because the song began in mid-2002 as Prodigy Lover, a slower tempo song that some (including me) interpret as a diss song about Matt Sharp. Matt was suing Weezer at the time, hence the 'write me your letters/but they're not the same' line. Prodigy Lover became Kings of Money...

One of the many important lessons you can learn as an adult is that some media is just not made for you. That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it whole-heartedly but you also have to understand that if you hate it for not being the thing they made for you back in the day, you might be missing the point.

#RiversDemoFlood 2035: Binoculars 4 2011-2014 From EWBAITE Binoculars is a kind of catchy song about finding enjoyment while on the road. It's an interesting concept, and while I wouldn't call it bad in any way, I wouldn't put it in the upper tiers of the songs Rivers was making at this time...
