A band that is not and cannot be "emo." "Emo" is a word created to further the delineation of all music into tiny, highly-specified categories. It is a false label, much as "grunge" was in the early 1990's. Moreover, it is a recent term, new within the past year or two, while Weezer's Blue Album was released in 1994, quite a long time before some recording industry advertising hack created the term "emo." Weezer, having predated "emo" by a number of years, cannot therefore be "emo."

A band that sings about many issues in life and doesn't care about what the critics say.
A true ROCK band.
One of the very FEW bands that high schoolers and college students listen to and can actually relate to, unlike many new wave emo bands that have exploded onto the scene.
Weezer sings with emotion but doesn't use it as a selling point.
If a weezer song is covered during some coffee shop band's performance, people get nostalgic and start cheering them on, that shows how great of a band Weezer was. I mean if Taking Back Sunday was played during a cover concert, i would find it hard to reveal that i would actually know the song being played.

After (insert most boring class here) stacy went up to her room, and put on some Weezer, while her good for nothing boyfriend calls about how much he misses her.

An alternative band, formed in 1992, that is famous for its "geek rock" attitude. The lyrics are dripping with not only wit but also emotion, and the sound sometimes features a harmonica, with influences such as KISS, Nirvana, and the Pixies, with an added flair of musical brilliance. Is said to be the influence on many newer bands such as Hellogoodbye, Motion City Soundtrack, and Taking Back Sunday. More recently the band is famous for the song "Beverly Hills" being plastered all over MTV, but a few other famous songs of Weezer are Buddy Holly, The Sweater Song (Undone), Perfect Situation and Island in the Sun.

Weezer refuses to be the norm band that sells-out and sucks up limelight 24/7 to be mainstream. They keep music real, kids.
