I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams is a B-side to The Good Life single. Originally, the song was written for Songs from the Black Hole.

"I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams", commonly abbreviated by fans as "IJTOTLOMD" is an interesting song because it was the only Black Hole demo to receive proper SFTBH treatment; that is, it has the female vocals (sung by Rachel Haden, who would have played Laurel), its sound is exactly how SFTBH would have sounded (multiple singers, heavy "spacey" synth and moog) and it was officially released.

IJTOTLOMD was played at a soundcheck while Weezer toured with that dog. During the soundcheck, Rachel sang lead vocals. Additionally, Rachel sang lead vocals on Superfriend at a soundcheck (showing that she was at least familiar and most likely on board with the concept before it was abandoned). (more...)
