Watch Weezer cover Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks"

by Tyler Munro

Last night Weezer added another cover to their ever-growing repertoire when they covered Foster the People’s “Pumped Up Kicks” to a packed house that pretended to know the words. One of the biggest songs of the summer (even though it came out last year), “Pumped Up Kicks” is Foster the People’s first single, and while the crowd may not know the words (like, at all) or how to hold their cameras properly, at least they’ve got the melodies down pact. Watch the admittedly awful video of the surprisingly good cover at the top of this post. Thanks to Stereogum for the heads up.
