While I ripped on Weezer the other day for a lackluster cover of Toto's "Rosanna", I have to say I'm all in on their latest Toto cover. Yes, it's true. The internet won and Weezer's version of the 80s soft-rock classic, "Africa" has happened.
For those who have no idea who Toto is, why they made a yacht-rock paean about Africa, or what music videos were like in the halcyon days of MTV, maybe the 4:35 of the "ya didn't have to be there, but it kind of helps" video below will shed some light on these mysteries.
And while we're on the topic of Toto, here are my top ten Toto tracks.
