"I might turn it into a song but I'm not going to turn it into a song that's all about my daughter. "Recently, I was looking at my daughter sleeping and I just thought 'Do you have any idea how much I love you?' - it sounded like - wow - that could be a cool lyric. "Sometimes that means I've got to massage it away from the details of my personal life and make it more universal and classic because that's what I like to hear. "I get the original idea from my life and even sometimes the lyric like 'If You're Wondering If I Want You To (I Want You To)' and then I develop it and a lot of the time I want to develop it into a real classic pop song. "A lot of times, there will be a situation in my life that inspires the song," Cuomo says. This confidence and openness seems to have stemmed from the singer's marriage in 2006 and the birth of his daughter Mia, now aged two.ĭespite Cuomo's growth in his personal life, the softly spoken singer's songwriting still oozes with youthful exuberance such as the latest offering, If You're Wondering If I Want You To (I Want You To). "Quite a few of the songs, I put down the guitar and was just jumping around like David Lee Roth or something and our drummer gets up and plays guitar and our bass player plays synthesiser on some songs, so we're just always looking for new challenges." "We get excited to do what we want to do and we forget about our fear of failure and we try things and our fans accept it. "Yeah, it's very easy for a band to get locked into doing things one way and if they're successful at it, they think 'Oh well, we better keep on doing the same thing because that's what our fans expect'," Cuomo says of the recent democratic output. Now a seasoned veteran, Cuomo is pushing his musical boundaries to the limit, but this experimentation started with 2008's The Red Album which found, for the first time, Cuomo taking a back seat on some of the material - a rarity for the man with whom band members seemed almost afraid to discuss the songwriting process.Įven live, Weezer 2009 finds the band switching instruments, leaving the once-shy Cuomo without the six strings he's renowned for hiding behind. I guess that's the price of being inexperienced." "Now I see how completely unhelpful and unnecessary that was, so I wish I could have been a little more confident in the early days.
