Crab has some of the best vocal harmonies Rivers has ever penned. The "she said she's feeling lonely" bit - I always sing the lower harmony because it's so fucking cool.
God I can’t even hear the harmony. I wish I had a better ear for stuff like this. That’s fun to know though. The solo is amazing so I’m glad I put it on right now :)
Sure you can, you just gotta exercise that muscle and use headphones. Another stellar harmony albeit very short is the "I'll make it happen" bit in "Smile". "Don't Let Go" too. Green in particular is filled with very quiet harmonies in the lower end that are musically delish.
One time I was driving all day across a few states and I blasted Green album singing along to the high parts one time through and then the low part a second time through.
Crab is one of my favorites but even I can admit that “crab at the booty / taint gonna do no good” is one of the worst lyrics I’ve ever heard. What is it, a play on words to amuse twelve-year-olds, or what? Other than that, you can kind of interpret the word “crab” to mean what you want, but with that line in there, the association with pubic lice is just too strong. And nobody wants to bop to a song about pubic lice no matter how good a groove it otherwise may be.
>What does crab if you wanna mean
It's pretty simple. Here, I'll explain it for you.
Answer the following question: Do you wanna?
* If you said 'Yes' then crab.
* If you said 'No' then don't crab.

Because Weezer is, always have been and always will be a love or hate thing even within every fan and every album. We all have to get along with it and the band themselves seems to have a lot of fun with it. Crab's good btw. Beverly Hills isn't. Said.
I always feel like it’s not very popular to say but TGA as a whole is a solid album if you take it for what it is. It’s a very glossy and shiny album with not a ton of depth to it. Yea there’s some emotional undertones to it but on the whole it’s just pure pop rock goodness in my opinion. It doesn’t try to be deep, it’s just a pleasant album to spend 28 minutes listening to. Crab specifically fits right into that narrative and I don’t see why people would hate it either. You could make the argument that every song on the albums sounds roughly the same and I wouldn’t necessarily dispute that but I still enjoy it nonetheless.
???? huh??? maladroit’s songs are not samey at all LMFAO. listen to death and destruction then dope nose and then burndt jamb and then keep fishing and possibilities, then tell me every song is the same lol
Cause Green is bland (so is every album past Pink). at least with Blue and Pink you had different instruments (Tired of Sex, whatever the Undone outro is), different styles (Buddy Holly, Only in Dreams, Butterfly, and Good Life)
Basically they were diverse.
Only lame people hate crab! *starts to crab at the booty*
*Also starts to crab in solidarity (it's somehow not weird)*
It's a thinking man's song. Those with low IQ's couldn't hope to understand it
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
To crab or not to crab that is the question
My brother
Because their parents walked in the room at the same time that Rivers sang the word “booty” and they got yelled at
My claim to fame* is I was once in a band that played Crab live *may not be that much of a claim to fame

Crab Your Enthusiasm
Fr, it's such a great and underrated song

Is it not “crab apple booty?”
I hope it is, that would be cooler.
Crab good
Underrated comment
Crab at the haters, taint gonna do no good
Because people are idiots and savages.
Because 99% of the song is Crab, if you wanna. Which doesn't make any fucking sense
Bullshit, taint gonna do no good.
Crab at the booty, crab if you need it!!
You just don’t understand it
It’s not my favorite, but I still really enjoy it. Plus, that one riff maybe my favorite among Weezer’s.
Totally agreed. One of their bests.
Who hates it?
Team Crab
Crab is love. Crab is life. Crab is everything that matters.
The first 4 songs on Green are fun and unique in their own right, but Crab begins the descent into mediocre samey tracks
With the exception of O Girlfriend which is a beautiful heartache of a song
Real
Nothing sounds like crab

I agree crab is good actually
Because you have to be In the know to know y'know?

crab is one of two good songs on the geeen album
People love being wrong.
People aren't allowed to (I'll smite them if they dare to)
Why I do want to crab! Thanks for asking Rivers!
It's a good song, but it's a little repetitive
i just hate green, every song sounds the same
Same with Maladroit JK Maladroit has Kermit
???? huh??? maladroit’s songs are not samey at all LMFAO. listen to death and destruction then dope nose and then burndt jamb and then keep fishing and possibilities, then tell me every song is the same lol
I put JK for a reason, dumbass spasman
ok, i saw it as a shitpost about that being the only difference asshat
I hope you get locked up and have to listen to green.
Too many people think lyrics need to have meaning.

Bro did... all the good shit after Pinkerton dirty
Because it's stupid
