}} "Undone – The Sweater Song" is a song by the American alternative rock band Weezer, released on their self-titled 1994 debut album. It was released as their debut single in 1994. Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo has commented on the song, saying: Cuomo has also said that it was his attempt at writing "a Velvet Underground-type song,"〔(Undone-The Sweater Song Songfacts )〕 but later referred to the song as an inadvertent rip-off of Metallica's "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)", with the band's metal roots showing through.〔(Rivers Cuomo: We Ripped Off “The Sweater Song” From Metallica (Rolling Stone) )〕 ==Overview== Originally, the band intended to insert various sound clips into the song, but were wary of the cost of licensing them. Instead, the studio version of the song features a spoken introduction by then bassist Matt Sharp and longtime friend of the band Karl Koch, as well as an "intermission" set of dialogue between Karl and one of the founding members of Weezer's official fan club and early supporter of the band, (Mykel Allan ). This dialogue is frequently ad-libbed during concerts and other live recordings. During live performances in 2005, the band would often invite a fan up to play the acoustic guitar part of "Undone" with the band. On the last night of the Foozer tour, Dave Grohl came up and played it with the band. The Fray, who toured with Weezer in 2005, played a cover version of this song live during 2007 touring. The Offspring covered it in 1994 and 1995. NewFangled Contraption covered it at every show in 2002 and 2003. The Bloodhound Gang covered it with a mix of Wu-Tang Clan's "Ain't Nuttin To F Wit". Punk/Indie rock band Titus Andronicus have covered the song multiple times on various tours; the band included one of these live covers on their mixtape, ''Titus Andronicus LLC Mixtape Vol 1''. Canadian musician Mac DeMarco performed a version of the song in April 2013 for ''The A.V. Club'' A.V. Undercover series.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.avclub.com/articles/mac-demarco-covers-weezer,93891/ )〕 In May 2013, UK Based Label Tiny Lights Recordings released a cover of the song recorded by a number of its artists to commemorate its second birthday.〔http://tinylightsrecordings.com/2013/05/23/new-music-the-tiny-lights-birthday-band-single-number-2/〕 On the 2008 Troublemaker Tour, Tom DeLonge – lead singer of the tour's opening act Angels & Airwaves – sang it as a duet with Cuomo. On their tour in 2011, the song was performed with the members of The Flaming Lips. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Undone – The Sweater Song」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
