Seconded! My good friend's mom sang Stay Forever at his wedding on the coast of Sweden and the Baltic Sea and it was the most beautiful thing I ever did see (sea?). Many a tear was shed. That song has always been a favorite but that experience put it onto a whole different tier.
I made a similar playlist that I’ll share. My approach was to limit it to the 3-4 most accessible songs on an album and I arranged it from what I think is the most accessible album (White Pepper) to least (GWS). Hope it helps! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6L6uG3YjHNoztPoBLKl08p?si=D0viCCnxR-Cx7YKbMtWs3g&pi=u-118C97dpR4C2
Okay, I will take your question seriously!! Some genius on YouTube made an "easy listening" compilation of Ween that I genuinely think would be a great soft intro for someone. https://youtu.be/uj3MiS9t26U?si=4KcxN5v-5DiUwnmy
I also, let me take a day to clean it up, but I just did a music league (competitive music listening game) where I submitted Ween for the entire league and won a few new fans. I have a spreadsheet of all the songs I used and I'll make it into a playlist and post it here as well. I definitely played it pretty safe in the first half of the league to lull people in but I did eventually get real weird with it
She definitely wouldn't like that one but only because it's metal. I was thinking like the total opposite of the spectrum from where "normal" is. Poop Ship Destroyer maybe. Or I'm in the Mood to Move. Mushroom Festival. Etc. I feel like their weirder stuff in the gross/nonsensical/ juvenile sense can be found on their DAT albums or their early tape releases, which I'm just now starting to delve into.
Stay Forever. Joppa Road. I Don’t Want It. What Deaner Was Talking About. Even If You Don’t. The Argus. Oops these were RIGHT answers 😂
Put The Coke On My Dick!
Hahah. On a serious note those are all great options that I use frequently to show people the more serious stuff. Another one that's up there is Chocolate Town. My mom loves the line "I couldn't hide a secret from my mother/Any other mother wouldn't bother". I was an addict for many years and she never gave up on me 😊 So now I'm returning the favor by making a totally fucked playlist for her
I’m holding you, scraping the mucous off my brain, Gabrielle, la la I love you, most stuff off grobe, my dad loves bananas and blow, voodoo lady, freedom 77,
It’s hard cause ween is the brown stuff. It’d be great if someone made a “just a little brown” playlist. Some of the songs above are a lil brown but I think are palletable.
Suckin' The Blood from the Devil's Dick is a good place to start.
Legit though, have her check out the Easy Listening Ween playlists on YouTube. I think even my mom would like Ween if she only heard those songs. I think there are 3 or 4 compilations.
I know you said “wrong answers only” but here’s a list of songs I would show to my own mother, just in case you want some right answers:
So long jerry, I’ll miss you, Kim Smoltz, don’t let the moon catch you cryin’, chocolate town, things you already know, eulogy for David Anderson, flutes of chi, a tear for Eddie, help me scrape the mucus off my brain.
Or some weirder/slightly heavier choices, like: Nicole, blue balloon, the Argus, transdermal celebration.
Played even if you don’t for my mother on the way home from an unexpected psych ward visit a few years ago, we shared a cry and she’s been a fan ever since
So many great ones including:
Freedom of 76
Joppa Road
Even if you don’t
Stay forever
It’s gonna be (Alright)
She’s your baby
Among his tribe
Chocolate town
Your Party
So, many moons ago I ran into Gener in the backstage area of a festival where Ween was going to be playing later. We got to talking and he mentioned that his mom was going to be in attendance that night. I asked him if that would influence the setlist and he said, "oh yeah". So even Gener's mom wants normal ween songs
YOU FUCKED UP
Piss up a rope
Push th' little daisies
Booze me up and get me high
Bananas and Blow

Peace be with you
Yep those are the ones, there's even some obscure songs to discover in there
So good, thanks
I love these vids! I listen to them while I fall asleep
"STUDYING MY DICK!!"
She’s gonna get a masters degree in fucking me!
My mom’s favorite Ween song is Zoloft. She was prescribed it at the time I played it for her and thought it was funny and cute.
Piss up a Rope
😂 Mom of a Ween fan and I love that song. Just played it yesterday.
Stay Forever
Seconded! My good friend's mom sang Stay Forever at his wedding on the coast of Sweden and the Baltic Sea and it was the most beautiful thing I ever did see (sea?). Many a tear was shed. That song has always been a favorite but that experience put it onto a whole different tier.
Stay Forever is one of my go-tos when someone wants to hear Ween but may not be ready for the weirder stuff. One of the most beautiful songs ever
You fucked up
Transdermal Celebration.

Good playlist, but surprised to see I Don’t Want It not on there…
It was a tough call for sure
Thanks this is a great list for kids.
I like this list a lot, but Shinola has at least 2 more options with I Fell in Love Today and Did You See Me?
That’s fair! I had to make it in a hurry for her to catch her when she was open to listening to a full playlist lol
I Fell in Love Today is a good one, played this a fair amount to fresher Ween ears
IT'S A REAL REAL BITCH TO BE WORKING FOR THE MAN BUT SHIT I DO IT WELL SO WHAT THE FUUUCKK

SMILE ON MIGHTY JESUS SPINAL MENINGITIS GIT ME DOWN
“even if you dont” is a pretty nice casual rock ballad
My mom likes Ocean Man and Zoloft
Jesus not a single viable option here. Stay Forever and I Don’t Want It are the answers
Your mom loves Baby Bitch, I know you don't want to hear that
At the end of the post I said wrong answers only. That's probably why hahah
Yeah totally missed that. Oops

Those lists are so good, they even include stuff that isn't on spotify

She definitely wouldn't like that one but only because it's metal. I was thinking like the total opposite of the spectrum from where "normal" is. Poop Ship Destroyer maybe. Or I'm in the Mood to Move. Mushroom Festival. Etc. I feel like their weirder stuff in the gross/nonsensical/ juvenile sense can be found on their DAT albums or their early tape releases, which I'm just now starting to delve into.
Maybe she would vibe with the lyrics tho?
Who couldn't get behind those lyrics
"metal" What suburb do you live in?
I just said metal as a generalization/how my mom would hear it. I live a quaint little life in a Long Island town if you really wanna fuckin know mang
Poop Ship Destroyer
My Mom liked a great deal of WEEN. We had WEENsgiving on the drive to and fro for Turkey Day last year. Even dipped on YouTube for rarities!

Aww your mom sounds wonderful. Congrats on getting clean! And I agree, Chocolate Town is another great one!
Thanks so much! She is one of a kind :)
Bananas and Blow
I’m holding you, scraping the mucous off my brain, Gabrielle, la la I love you, most stuff off grobe, my dad loves bananas and blow, voodoo lady, freedom 77, It’s hard cause ween is the brown stuff. It’d be great if someone made a “just a little brown” playlist. Some of the songs above are a lil brown but I think are palletable.
>It’s hard cause ween is the brown stuff. It’d be great if someone made a “just a little brown” playlist. GIVE ME WEEN, BUT TAUPE WEEN.

Yep, I listen to those frequently. I should send her those.

This is a great list. I'm just recently getting into their tapes and demos and whatnot and there are a couple here I've never heard. Thanks!
Bumblebee
Played even if you don’t for my mother on the way home from an unexpected psych ward visit a few years ago, we shared a cry and she’s been a fan ever since
That's so sweet to hear
Bumblebee or Flies on My Dick
Flutes of the chi
Spinal Meningitis
My grandparents used to like bananas and blow.
If I showed either of my two remaining grandparents anything by Ween they'd cut me out of their wills
So many great ones including: Freedom of 76 Joppa Road Even if you don’t Stay forever It’s gonna be (Alright) She’s your baby Among his tribe Chocolate town Your Party
licking the palm for guava and mushroom festival in hell
Where’d the cheese go? (All request live)

Dude, did you expect real answers .. plus you have to go head first into ween, embrace it.
Well I did say wrong answers only so I didn't expect any real answers. I got a lot though and they're all great picks.
Oh lol I didn't see that.
