What if you think they're equal?

Hall & Oates' "Say It Isn't So" is the greatest song of all time.

Are you people out of your fucking minds? I hoped that the hipster world's brief foray into Hall and Oates apreciation ended that stupid week where Ben Gibbard made that dumb list on Pitchfork, then Pitchfork had that dumb news feature about their tour. It's not like the Weezer "Say It Ain't So" falls under their dubious ironic period, it's just great.― Roadkill Bingo (Roadkill Bingo), Wednesday, April 6, 2005 11:11 PM
I listen to H&O about 10x more than Weezer, but "Say It Ain't So" is Rivers' best song, and "Say It Isn't So" wouldn't make my list of top 20 H&O tracks (I'm sure Alfred already made this list, so I'm off to compare it with my own mental list).

Say It Isn't So would sound amazing coming from nearly any other band, but it's up against things like I Can't Go For That and Kiss On My List.
Why haven't Weezer ever put out a greatest hits btw? They're totally a singles band.

I would not have guessed that that guy had a soft-rock/folkie period
