The title of Weezer’s latest single: “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To.” The title of Weezer’s forthcoming album: Raditude, which I initially misspelled as Ratitude, bringing to mind Templeton the rat from Charlotte’s Web, which probably isn’t too far of a stretch, considering that it’s Weezer we’re talking about.

Weezer has instructed its fans to request the latest single in the following way: “(If you’re wondering if i want you to play ‘(If you’re wondering if i want you to) I want you to,’ yes, I want you to play ‘(If you’re wondering if i want you to) I want you to.’” Because just telling a DJ that you want to hear the latest Weezer single is far too straightforward.

In regards to the album title, the band is equally longwinded: “Raditude”! “Raditude”?? WHAT is “Raditude”? WHO is “Raditude”? WHERE is “Raditude”? WHEN is “Raditude”? HOW is “Raditude”? DONDE ES “Raditude”? QUIERO “Raditude”? Là où “Raditude”? Pourquoi “Raditude”? Quand “Raditiude”? Quel “Raditude”? Waar “Raditude”? Waarom “Raditude”? Wanneer “Raditude”? Welke “Raditude”? Wo “Raditude”? Warum “Raditude”? Wenn “Raditude”? Welches “Raditude”? Dove “Raditude”? Perché “Raditude”? Quando “Raditude”? Quale “Raditude”? Raditude “Raditude”? ….”Raditude”?

Please, shut up. You’re slowly killing me, Weezer.
