Weezerpedia's featured song is a monthly showcase of a song from one of the many bands we cover. Weezerpedia has thousands of song pages, and our editors work together each month to select one that sheds light on the bands/topics we cover, highlights or "platforms" a band we want to support, etc. We have similar pages for featured articles, featured videos, featured images, and featured quotes. Weezerpedia:Featured list is being put on hiatus for a spell.

Featured song: "Do You Wanna Get High?"
"Do You Wanna Get High?" is a single released by Weezer on November 3, 2015. It is the fifth track from The White Album, although the album was still unannounced upon the song's release.
It was initially thought by some fans that the song may have originated in 2001. A song or idea is listed in the Catalog of Riffs from October 4 of 2001 as "D'ya Wanna Get High?" with a COR# of 351. Additionally, on Rivers Cuomo's genius.com annotation of the song, he noted that the song was "about me and my darling girlfriend in 2000/2001". Cuomo made the following comment on the song's origins in the Weezer Fan Club Facebook group: "DYWGH verse/chorus is from 2014. Bridge is from 2015. (chords taken from a j-rock song called shangri-la i heard while on a japan tour with Scott & Rivers)." The song is question is "Shangri-La" by Japanese rock band Chatmonchy.
"Do You Wanna Get High?" was released digitally a week after the previous single, "Thank God for Girls." In contrast to the latter song, which was seen as a departure from the style the band is known for, "Do You Wanna Get High?" was noted by fans as having something closer to the "classic Weezer sound." It debuted on November 2, 2015 on Beats 1 Radio during a band interview with Zane Lowe.
