"Tripping Down the Freeway" is a Rivers Cuomo song from Raditude, Weezer's seventh studio album, released in the fall of 2009 as their last record for DGC and Interscope. Jacknife Lee produced it, Shawn Everett and Tom McFall recorded it, and Rich Costey mixed.
Raditude was the band at their loosest and most goofball, from the title, which actor Rainn Wilson suggested to Cuomo, to the cover photo of a dog named Sidney lifted from National Geographic. The album opened at number seven on the Billboard 200, and this deep cut was one that rock stations picked up.
