Featured song: "Everybody Needs Salvation"
"Everybody Needs Salvation" is a single by Weezer, released exclusively to the members of the Weezer Fan Club.
Rivers Cuomo wrote "Everybody Needs Salvation" at some point between 2011 and 2014, in contention for the album that would become Everything Will Be Alright in the End. The song was listed as part of Act III on a track list of an early draft of EWBAITE (then dubbed Ecce Homo). Though it did not appear on the final album, a portion of the bridge lyrics appear in the EWBAITE liner notes after the lyrics for "The British Are Coming." The song was instead recorded as a Weezer Fan Club-exclusive single in February of 2015 for release in April of that year.
The cover art is a painting by Antonello da Messina called Ecce Homo, painted in 1475. The symbol on the shoulder of Christ is the Om in Devanagari.
