"Da Vinci" is a song by the American rock band Weezer. It was released as the third single from their ninth studio album Everything Will Be Alright in the End on November 18, 2014.[1]
Critical reception
Scott Heisel of Alternative Press stated ""Da Vinci" is another example of Cuomo & Co. being absolute masters at their game." Lyrically, Heisel praises it as a love song, saying "The words are clear without being direct, making the lyrics potentially universal."[2] By contrast, Michael Nelson of Stereogum considers the lyrics "cringe-worthy". Nelson, however, praises the chorus and bridge.[3] Matthew McGuire at Crescent Vale considers it "one of the top tracks of the album with pop structured guitar riffs."[4]
