Buddy Holly was released by American rock band Weezer in 1994 as a single from their debut Blue Album. Its opening guitar riff became one of the most recognisable intros in 1990s alternative rock, helped by the song's Happy Days themed music video directed by Spike Jonze. The short lick later circulated online as a standalone sound for edits and memes, valued because listeners identify the song in under two seconds without needing the vocals or chorus.

The iconic opening guitar lick from Weezer's Buddy Holly, used in edits, memes and transitions when a riff needs instant 90s alt rock energy.
This is the short, instantly recognisable guitar lick from the start of Weezer's 1994 hit Buddy Holly. Played as a bright, crunchy power chord riff with a tight stop, it lasts just two seconds but carries the whole hook of the song. The tone is upbeat and slightly nerdy, matching the band's geek rock image. Dropping it into a video works like a musical punchline, signalling a reveal, a throwback moment or a sudden burst of confidence before the main action kicks in.
