It took about six months and more than 300 Tweets, but Weezer finally caved in to a fan-demand and released a cover of Toto's 1982 hit, "Africa" on Tuesday morning.

The Twitter account @weezerafrica appeared in December as a joke by a teenage fan named Mary, who told Noisey the idea came to her after the hit Netflix series Stranger Things used the song.

Drummer Patrick Wilson Tweeted at the account at one point that he "laughed" at the idea of the cover. But when Weezer released a version of Toto's "Rosanna" last week (from the same Toto IV album as "Africa"), it appeared the band was indeed aware of the suggestion and now just toying with hopeful fans.

Weezer is, after all, know for its collective sense of humor and it's daring cover versions. In the past the band has tackled Black Sabbath's "War Pigs," The Cars' "Just What I Needed," Pink Floyd's "Time," Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" and many others. With dozens of covers under their belt, why not take fan requests?

By Tuesday afternoon the official audio on the band's YouTube channel had over 200,000 plays. You can enjoy it below.
