Excellent B-Sides, Not So Excellent Remix, PriceAs a weezer fan, I feel that the two B-Sides (I Do, Starlight) are top. I wish more bands would be like Pearl Jam and release domestic versions of import singles. 'I Do' is a ballad featuring some organ, and 'Starlight' is a uptempo number that would have fit well towards the end of the green album.
The Jimmy Pop remix of 'Hash Pipe' isn't my cup of tea. It sounds a tad too much like that Bloodhound Gang song about doing it like they do on The Discovery Channel.
If you are a big weezer fan, treat yourself right and fork over the money for this import. Casual weezer fans may want to wait for a B-Sides collection.
The better of the two
But I Do is one of their better songs to date. Hash pipe is an awesome song. It is remindful of Butterfly off Pinkerton with the same deep, melodic prescence. Starlight is another amazing song they decided to leave of the new album. I must say however that the Jimmy Pop remix is really wierd. It isn't terrible, but it may difficult for some hard-core Weezer fans to get used to Rivers voice in front of a breakbeat.
