Longtime Sunshine
Weezer · Other Songs - Weezer
Get on a bus and move to Vermont
Or Maine or any of those states back east
That I remember...
Sometimes I wanna go back to school
An east coast college with some history
I'd be satisfied I know in the simple things
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Sometimes I want to build a house
With a wood stove or a fire place
In the middle of the livingroom
An old piano...
Sometimes it don't seem so bad
To settle down with a good woman
Leave this lonely life behind
Forever and ever
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Sometimes I wanna get in a car
Close my eyes and drive real fast
Keep on going 'till I get someplace
Where I can truly rest
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Longtime sunshine
Longtime sunshine upon me
Longtime Sunshine
Longtime Sunshine stands as a standout track from Weezer's 2009 album, Raditude. Released during a period where the band experimented with a more polished, pop-oriented sound, the song captures the group's signature blend of power pop and alternative rock. The recording features the band's characteristic jangly guitars and melodic hooks, showcasing their ability to craft infectious anthems that resonate with both longtime fans and casual listeners. While the album received mixed reactions upon its initial release, this track remains a memorable song in their discography, highlighting the band's continued evolution in the late 2000s. It serves as a testament to their enduring influence on the genre and their capacity to produce catchy, radio-friendly music that defines their era.
