Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo has recently released an official video for "Lover in the Snow" from Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo. The video is a little personal glimpse into Cuomo’s love for the game of soccer. Made YouTube guerilla style, the video traces his setbacks in life with the sport, culminating with a recent goal he made at a charity soccer match hosted by US soccer star Mia Hamm last January.

A Weezer release since the green album that I was excited about and wasn't dissapointed when I got it. Techincally it's not a "weezer" release, but who's into politics anyways. Stand outs for me Longtime Sunshine (feels like thats how I feel about my band and my music right now, really hit home) Wanda (such a beautiful song, too bad they didn't use it for Angus, but I can also see the studios perspective and You Gave Your Love to me Softly worked for the film too) ...
