Weezer ~ Buddy Holly (1994)

Weezer

Weezer is another group my son Teddy introduced me to. In this song, the very singable melody and nostalgic lyrics about Buddy Holly and Mary Tyler Moore made it instantly popular. However, the video took it to another level becoming one of the most widely viewed music videos in history. It won a number of awards owing to the amazing editing that seamlessly inserts the band into the restaurant on the TV show Happy Days.

And what’s not to love about a song whose chorus verse is:

Woo-ee-oo, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you’re Mary Tyler Moore
I don’t care what they say about us anyway
I don’t care ’bout that
