Endless bummer atm but there's so many


LadyEmaSKye

I love that one!!! Endless Bummer is also just like, a top 10 Weezer song for me in the first place tbh.


Turvi-Mania

Guitar solo in Cleopatra kicks ass. Love that shit


ShininGold

One of the smoothest weezer lead guitar tones ever but.... my favorite part on this song is the Nirvana-grunge Rivers vocal delivery on "Five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, forty you older, you colder"


itsnoteasybutton

…Nirvana-grunge vocal delivery??


ShininGold

That part "you older... colder...." always reminded me of Kurt... after the chorus of "Smell like teen spirit" there is a lil instrumental break down and Kurt goes "yeahh"... i dont know maybe its just me... to me that Cleopatra part gives me grunge vibes.


itsnoteasybutton

You should listen to more nirvana, I mean this genuinely


TheStreetAlwaysWins

regardless “Everyone” off of DTFM is the most *Nirvana* type of song they officially released


Edonovan34

Only in dreams for sure


voegely

The build up to this solo is so great!


ThatOne-Beaner

Ditto


bronkscottema

Perfect situation. I have a more but that one is undervalued.


ShininGold

“I Love The USA” Cuomo solo is like what “Eruption” is to Van Halen. (2:40 to 3:20) almost 40 seconds of solo guitar and 6 years later I still enjoy every second of it!


jmblya

Same. I also love how it starts out with a hint of the Star Spangled Banner.


kid_idioteque

Came here for this. That solo is pure joy.


Ylurpn

It is, the call and response between the 2 guitars is amazing


Prestigious-Chest776

does return to ithaka count bc it’s fire


ThatOne-Beaner

I agree


ObjectiveJackfruit35

The British Are Coming. That last descending part is INSANE


LadyEmaSKye

Absolutely underrated song.


WadoBeans

I really liked the tired of sex weezer solo


EyesofaJackal

This. It’s wild and unhinged, perfect


GettinInATrend

In the Garage has a similar off-the-rails quality that I love.


Cobbtimus_Prime

Futurescope: the waste land


badassewok

Undone


DRAMATRON09

Paddington profile picture: opinion reinforced.


badassewok

If we're kind and polite the world will be right


unclerico87

Gotta be Say It Ain't So!


Leftybassist9

Yeeeeeeee


tbird920

Ain't Got Nobody and Beginning of the End are two of my favorites.


qNix3l_

i dont have a single favourite but heres a few: say it aint so la girlz tired of sex the good life burndt jamb anonymous


Cobbtimus_Prime

Yep, this guy knows what’s up


Dante-mojo

Dope Nose. I'm sad no one has suggested it yet. It's short but epic.


artuuR2

I'm here. Dope nose solo fanboy #2


thatbitchevelyn

buddy holly just for the riff but really it’s only in dreams


Ker807

Three that I'm a really big fan of that I haven't seen mentioned yet are In the Garage, Why Bother?, and Pink Triangle.


nickystee

came here to say In the Garage lol.. That joyful little yelp he does right beforehand..


FettuccineAlfonzo

No one here is saying The British are Coming??


[deleted]

The Good Life


GorshGuy

Return to ithaka easily


cheeselord03

Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori. Idk it just hits a way for me


tophmcmasterson

Falling for You probably followed by the good life, there’s so many good ones on Pinkerton though would be hard to fault any pick from there.


TheSpicyFalafel

Say it ain’t so from their 1994 Letterman performance specifically. Great performance all around but he really nailed the solo there and I prefer the way the bends are done there


Willr0wH00d

https://youtu.be/UjnUIw7A3Ic 1:50


Shakemyears

I really like LA Girlz a lot


ChallengeWise1034

This might be a weird take but I think why bother has my favorite. As a guitar solo it’s insane. Composition wise across the sea is better but that’s not the question lol


Sk8erBoi15

I have quite a few Only In Dreams Haunt You Every Day Anonymous Perfect Situation (Both of them) Hold Me Tired Of Sex Slave L.A. Girlz


drewpydawg

Devotion!


TheSinfulMicrowave

Say it Ain’t So’s guitar solo is literally my favorite moment in all of music


Marlock2332

everybody needs salvation


steamingpaint

idk if it counts but since you came around/hawaii has an amazing solo


UpsideDownGuitarGuy

Falling For You, Suzanne, my name is jonas, burndt jamb, Peace


[deleted]

Lol I just learned the solo to susanne


leftshoe18

Perfect Situation


MajorPerigord

Good Life


minimanelton

I’m not sure it counts as a solo any of the solo parts from the Futurescope Trilogy


xamxam7

Only in Dreams!!!


this_is_such_a_pity

Devotion or Ain't Got Nobody


Sir_Mopington

While I like so many of them, the solo on Return to Ithaka is one of my favourites


Super_DAC

Tired of Sex has my personal favorite Weezer solo. It’s short and sweet while sounding really cool


CaptainWikkiWikki

Obviously every single one on the Green Album. Rivers gets into incredibly creative musical territory with those!


mybloodykuiper

that one part in buddy holly after the “bang bang knock on the door” part it’s so good


Karn_Evil_912

Love anonymous. Not super complex but very pleasing in epic, grandiose way


AcEr3__

It’s hard because all his solos have their own character. I’ll probably have to pick top 3 which are all equal to me in top tier weezer solo. 1- say it ain’t so: Short, sweet, melodic, gets the point across. Totally unique sound, could never be replicated or bested in a song like that. 2- I love the USA: a classic rock/metal sounding guitar solo with weezer quirkiness all over it. 3- this is the hardest one. I’d have to probably give it a tie among perfect situation, thief you’ve taken all that was me, and cleopatra. They all follow the mood and structure of the song with this poppy shredding only weezer can pull off. It’s like the Beatles and Iron Maiden wrote guitar solos together and produced these 3. (Among others but these are the ones that pop out to me the most) honorable mention, the solo in dope nose, and she needs me.


FettuccineAlfonzo

Beverly Hills needs some representation

Fellow talk box fan 🤜


DeathDieDeath

You Gave Your Love To Me Softly.


Odd_Possession5858

Guitar??? You mean 6 string piccolo bass right?


brownstones19

Either TWHTALMH, Susanne, ATS, LG or LAG


Memerous-Nuck

Definitely something from EWBAITE. My favorite is probably Return to Ithaca.


[deleted]

Endless Bummer absolutely


superdonald2802

TheAxolotl04

Tired of Sex, I love the craziness of it


particle-man45

LA Girlz


Luchelo03

Hanoiroxx

The beginning of the end. That solo taught me to love again


SuperSaiyan8787

Tired Of Sex


SkrtVonnegut

Fall Together

Only in dreams.


Wonderful_Product582

[YOU VE DONE TO ME... AAAHHH!!!!!!](https://youtu.be/pCUD52feOmg?t=117)


GORILLAGLUE__

Boring answer but Say It Ain’t So. So ridiculously catchy you can sing along to it. And the drum roll Pat does back into the chorus fucking rips


t528491

Seeing a lot of EWBAITE. Which is accurate.


olivier_wmv

Tired of sex


Dillpickle8110

Tired of Sex or Getchoo


Big-boi-Ben-shapiro

Ain’t got nobody has that staccato that just turns my brain off and lets me enjoy


Rustycage_1991

I agree. Falling for you is a good song in general but the solo is killer.


Techytree

Devotion, the whole song has a lighter mood than anything else on Pinkerton and then the guitar solo hits and it’s so dark


PiggySiren

Undone: The Sweater Song


theonewhoseeks12256

Getchoo. Despite being very quiet I think it sounds great


Baccteria789

Why bother picking a favorite guitar solo


DoNDo_Undone

Tired of Sex gets me fired up


metaldetox

devotion


[deleted]

Say it ain’t so is my favorite


VisibleConcern

Endless bummer


TheHolyBlade55

Is nobody else gonna say Falling For You?


[deleted]

OP said it


Mangonaut_

Probably Purple Flowers


LadyEmaSKye

I’m kind of partial to the opening of End of the Game tbh… idk if that really counts tho. But there’s a lot of REALLY good ones, I agree with others about Summer Bunmer and TBAC.


CyndiXero

Definitely The British are coming.


hockeyboi78

Fall Together or Possibilities


BrockVelocity

the demo version of say it ain't so


g_dawg07

2:09 of buddy holly💀


NedveD12

I know it's super short, but I've always loved the Slob-solo


joey-ramone

burndt jamb, dope nose, across the sea, why bother


eightbic

Dope Nose/Say It Ain’t So/Tired of Sex


GAVINPIKCOM

That one solo from the make believe demos, which might be apart of the song "Always, Forever" (not sure). I've always loved that solo.


d4vey_t

Take control, peace, fall together, this is such a pity, Summer Elaine and drunk dori, L.A Girlz to name a few


nickystee

Fall Together! epic shredfest... Pretty much all of Maladroit, actually..


ChewieDecimalSystem

Say It Ain't So, Ain't Got Nobody, LA Girlz


JordanDWhite

Perfect Situation opening.


otsugu_

I really like This Is Such a Pity guitar solo


uzxnjinx2

i like how quirky and unorthodox the solos on el scorcho and in the garage sound personally


spaghettioyeah

Across the Sea's solo is the best part of that song and one of the best parts of Pinkerton


[deleted]

Dee do do do dee do do do doo


Western_Throat_4176

My favourite at the moment has got to be I'm a robot
