Take Control

this is one of the best new weezer songs i've heard. i think its basically about getting your life back on track after breaking up, and not worrying too much about what you've left behind, and just moving forward.

weezer is back and definitely in business. hallelujah! :)

The guitar solo in this kicks so much ass! Rivers is so awesome!

ya Rivers is awesome!! and so is this song!! and i most defenitly agree with like you meant it..weezer is back and definetly in buisness!! woo hoo!!! =W=

The best part is that line in the first verse.

"And I won't be ashamed Of the things we once made And I won't be comin' Back round here no more... no"

i love the strength he puts into those words. That things are over, and he won't ever go back, but he will not forget or hide that he once loved her... Oy vey... Rivers is an awesome lyric writer. I would kill to write like that.

This song is great. Love it.

Anyone ever noticed the similarities between this song and Crab from the green album? To me its like Crab Pt2, like the same story this time looked at from the guys perspective. I dont know maybe im wrong but its something i noticed when i first listened to Take Control.

a GREAT weezer song. one of my favorites in Maladroit. it's just so damn awesome and it's one of their best songs. to me, i think Take Control is about letting people take control of your feelings and let them step on you. in the first verses, 'leave me, tell me why' the person (rivers, i think) is trying to say that once they've been stepped on, he wants to know why he was. he gives out his soul to everyone and he gets nothing. so he accepts his strane behavior and says 'everyone, everyone i know - take control'. that what I believe it means. i don't care if people tell me it's wrong, because it's always right to me. Weezer ROCKS!

I love this song. ;]

"And I won't let you down Drag your name all over town "

so supportive not to talk shit about his ex. either that or to not bitch about breaking up in general.
