  • His singing voice is the most original and unorthodox sound music has ever heard, as far as I'm concerned.

  • No doubt that Billy is a genius, question is: why cant he make another good records like in the past?

  • I loved it! Thanks Billy

  • billy know all that we feel o_____o,

  • Its no secret that pre2000 pumpkins are like a different band than the pumpkins of now . What a great 90s band though.... Should have retired after mcatis.

  • I remember when this song first came out. So disappointing.

  • amazing track

  • I dont see why theres all this hate for new Pumpkins. Its not like they ever really had a set sound in the first place. If anyone has actually listened to Gish, it hardly sounds like Siamese Dream at all, same with Mellon Collie. Each album is an experiment, some are great, some arent as much. Personally though I LOVED machina and Zeitgeist had some great hard rock. And I have to admit, G.L.O.W. is probably one of my favorite SP songs to date.

  • @corleonex You're crap. you write something better if you think its so bad.

  • it may not be the original members, but it is still pretty damn good

  • this song is sweet

  • muy buena cancion me encanta como suena la guitarra

  • like like like

  • not that bad.

  • AWW YEEAH THE BASS~~ WOO! LOL

  • old and new, honestly im growing up in the new SP but i know more about the old stuff and i was grabbed by zeitgeist but machina and all ava adore whatever it is lol 90s where sooooo much more funner when people were like holy shit a cell phone and life was so simple i was born in 94 tho:/ 2000s kinda suck

  • @comablanc ouuu its seems that you dont know about music :l

  • @DByte56 lol what an idiot! this song is great, far better than most of the crap produced today!

  • @pennyroyaltea89 yes man this dude is a.... :x

  • can someone please check out my bands video, search 'no relation fear of home', we are heavily influenced by Smashing Pumpkins but we only have around 15 views, i promise you that if you are a fan of Smashing Pumpkins you will like this song!

  • Without Billy SP would never made it. It is so clear.

  • Corgy cant be fucked with!!!!!!!

  • I love this song!!!!!!

  • Billy Corgan may be a genius! but he need James Iha and D´arcy inmediatly! 

  • last release with jimmy :(

  • Oh billy :3

  • the pumpkine plus hot ass goth chicks is fucking awesome

  • I wish i could get into this, but i can't. It just feels fake.

  • Now it is time to listen to the Newer version of The Beginning is The End is The Beginning. (The version from Watchmen, not Batman.)

  • @delarye1 It's not new, it was the b-side on the single. It was released in 1997.

  • This song really helped me a couple years ago. Or at least, I was listening to it as I started coming out of my depression.

  • the girl in die video looks like audrey kitching o0 XD

    

  • @MrCandyflip It IS Audrey Kitching.

  • FREAKY RABBITS !!!!

  • @Kubie5789 grafiene is the right one, sootStar is just stuck in the 90's

  • i kinda wish that he didn't call them The Smashing Pumpkins anymore. because it doesn't really has The Smashing Pumpkins signature sound anymore.

    still an alright song though

  • I'm not gonna dispute how important the old members were. But even with them Billy was the head and most of the creative part of the band. He wrote over 90 percent of the songs and was seen to be as an over controlling person, heck rumor has it that he even re-recorded most of the Siamese Dream album himself (which I think is one of the greatest albums of all time). He may have been seen as a controlling asshole but he is also one of the greatest musical geniuses this world has ever seen.

  • @lionheart199112 Yeah but he is also "so alone"...

  • @lionheart199112 fuckin a i know shit !!!!!!!!!!!people never look at it that way and that shit pisses me off !

  • @lionheart199112 Damn right , billy is a super intellectual , just watch one of his many interviews , the guy is tuned in and thus creates such fine pieces of music which tend to be lyrically exquisite , anyone who doesnt appreciate what he hes given to the world of music doesnt have the brain capacity to absorb it.....hes the FUCKING man..!!!

  • @lionheart199112 who ain't a controlling asshole in the making and creating this music? I would be. just pure awesome. and that doesn't even tells the truth about Billy's and Smashing Pumpkins's music.

  • For any real-rockers this note above is the gospel truth...John Lennon is only marginally a better lyricist than B Corg

  • @Kevinhamby I must agree. SP has some of the deepest writing and most original style in music history. I think that if they had come onto the scene at a slightly better time they would be one of the most popular groups ever. For instance, if the Everlasting Gaze was released into the modern rock scene, it would have been a MASSIVE hit.

  • @lionheart199112 True, Assholes or drug adicts, or crazy. that how it goes. O! or u can b lady gaga. or the white stripes. How in the fuck seven nation army won so many awards! the world is retarded!

  • @rockriver126 Hey I love the stripes! For different reasons than I love SP and Nirvana and all my other favorites, though. But gaga is mediocre, I agree there.

  • @lionheart199112 He did all the guitar/bass parts cause of the producer saying D'arcy and James weren't good enough.

  • Everyone hates on the new Smashing Pumpkins, "They're not the Pumpkins without D'arcy and James blah blah blah..." oh please shut the fuck up, even though the sound has changed a bit, can't you just enjoy the good music? If it didn't have the title "Smashing Pumpkins" I bet you'd like it considerably..

  • @BIBLICALENDING agreed, i love both old and new SP, its all amazing music to me

  • As a rule I usually stay away from post-Adore Pumpkins. But this song kicks ass.

  • ...'m

  • This and the "Burn" NIN video are both some of the weirdest music vids I've seen. Yet they're still awesome.

  • Glitter Womens !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Billy as the genius behind SP and he continues to be. Let's not worry about the past and just enjoy his music then and now.

    

  • lol he said poop

  • What sucks even more is that they used scene queens like Audrey in this video. Just stop Billy.

  • I liked Zeitgeist and their stuff for Teargarden, they had this weird phase though where they just kind of seemed lost near the end of Jimmys time. This is kind of lumped in with that period.

  • With the exception of the vocals, the song sounds like "GOD."

  • Wow, this sucks.

    I can't stand to listen to the post 2000 stuff.

    Their original line-up was legendary, but it's quite the opposite.

  • @LeBaronDePropane DUMB FUCK

  • @Loikeodkoekodk Face it, their first 5 albums were the best ever written, but after D'Arcy left, it all went downhill.

  • crap

    

  • @TYLSEBSTER U didn't have to introduce urself.hahahaha u Cretin

  • Billy is a genius

  • Am I the only who noticed the video description is Poop?

  • @BoboConan well I, for one, didn't notice it. I noticed that you noticed it though, and I coil myslef in solus from that mere observation. well done to you though man. If we were fighter pilots in opposing migs, I'd be a dead man

  • i saw audrey kitching,, O.O

  • were all so alone

  • "("G.L.O.W." is a song by the American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins. It premiered on Chicago alternative rock station Q101 on September 29, 2008.[1] This song was the last recorded Smashing Pumpkins song to feature drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, who left the band in March 2009.)" - Wikipedia

  • this song kicks ass. the bass is strangely wicked and so it is the guitar line.

    wicked, wicked song. makes me think of having sex in most erotic way.

  • RABBITS PLAYING TENNIS! OMFG!

  • Love the video description.

  • This song is partially inspired by muse of Billy Corgan, Veronica Grey.

    She is doing an interview on SpirituallyRawDOTCOM on Tuesday, June 14, 10EST to clarify.

  • Why didn't they ever teach us to play a violin like that in orchestra!? 

  • @2222melissa you have to find your own way threw that mess...serch you tube for

    '2CELLOS (Sulic & Hauser) - Welcome To The Jungle ' that may help

  • @jonnydaycase well put.

  • @JonnyDayCase

    Ok, I don't mind, thats your opinion, whatever. Why do people care about this so much anyway?

  • I like the guitar, but probably only because it's hard, there's really not much else to this and I'd be hard-pressed to find a handful of songs from post 2000~ Pumpkins that I could honestly say are on the same level as anything from Gish through to Adore and everything in-between

  • @SmashingTurnips I agree, though I actually did like that American Gothic EP.

  • @siamesehummer That's true, I think that slips most peoples' minds as it did mine because it was such a small and quiet release

  • Machina I was the transitional album between Adore and Machina II

    In other words it's when they turned to shit.

  • Zero t-shirt:

    least subliminal message ever.

  • Hey Ben Goldwasser says poop!

    This song is about the book

    "220: S I F T I N G

    The Alien Battle Royale

    or

    How we met the Spirit of Kurt Cobain"

    by Fysche.

    Thank you for being such a profound inspiration!!!!!!!!!

  • This song is about sex, and if you use metaphors a song about sex can be beautiful, if go into the details a song about sex can get a little ugly.

  • I have pretty much every single, album and bootleg the Pumpkins ever did from the beginning....I've seen them live and although their musical sound has changed over the years they are still one of the greatest bands ever to grace this earth. Corgan and Co have never just churned out what the media wanted them to churn out....they experimented and pushed the boundaries and thats why we love them

  • the more i hear this tune the more i want Billy to keep rocking Pumpkins are awesome

  • lol funny reading some of theses comments.. as if the 'fans' know what the pumpkins is, was or should be.. It's a name, it's a brand name Billy records under it's nothing to get your undies in a twist about.. who cares what its released under, You can pick and choose what songs or albums you prefer. But this is a naff I'll admit, can't get into this at all. And it's not just about band members that make the Pumpkins, it's the style and what it represents, it's a rock band.

  • @MephProduction I know exactly what The Smashing Pumpkins were and are, The Smashing Pumpkins are great music and that's it. If there's a new song I like than great , if there's a new song I don't like than great. We each have the right to like and dislike certain songs.

  • Billy IS the Smashing Pumpkins. They were never a real band but rather a collective; it was his vision and motivation that also happened to involve regular contributors. That was SP1 and that's what SP2 is as well.

  • Is that Audrey Kitching?

  • This just makes me sad -.-

  • she looks like d'arcy lol

  • I never understood the people afraid of change. Its liike they cant accept the fact that things evolve. Billy Corgan is awesome independently. And is even more awesome with the rest of the original pumpkins members, but that never made the pumpkins what they are. Corgan is the pumpkins, everyone else was in for the ride. Each member gave their own footprint into the band, but at the end of the day, It was Billy who drove the band into the paradigm we know as the Smashing Pumpkins.

  • @pocketquacks i agree the Billy drove the band into the paradigm; however, they were much better back in the original formation. that is undeniable. Jimmy Chamberlain was a great drummer and had a huge impact on their unique sound too. Also i think the Billy works best with James when writing guitar parts. I don't know enough about D'arcy's input on the music, but you can't deny that she's the coolest of all the chicks to be in the band, or any band.

  • @queerp Billy may have rights to the name, but as much as he tries, he will never bring back The Smashing Pumpkins without James, Jimmy, and D'arcy. This is not The Smashing Pumpkins. Billy and any 'fan' that thinks it is, is in denial.

  • Comment removed

  • @queerp That...i have to agree with. All of it lol. But the pumpkins 'never being the pumpkins again' fever thats going around is crap. I think its just all a public sham of nostalgic nay sayers who cant accept change. I do miss the old stuff, but no one really wants to listen to anything anymore. The collective experience is lost.

  • @queerp That...i have to agree with. All of it lol. But the pumpkins 'never being the pumpkins again' fever thats going around is crap. I think its just all a public sham of nostalgic nay sayers who cant accept change. I do miss the old stuff, but no one really wants to listen to anything anymore. The collective experience is lost. Sorry for the opinion smash :/

  • @pocketquacks who would want the pumpkins to record the same record over and over and over.

    People need to realise it's ok not to like something.. lol doesn't mean the record is poor because we all have different tastes.. .

  • @MephProduction I think you misinterperated some of my post. But yeah, i am and always will be a Billy Corgan fan. I agree, no one wants to end up like Collective Soul lol

  • @pocketquacks lol sorry i'm just butting in on people conversations,

  • I love how Billy Corgan criticizes his fans for 'living in the past', yet in the end of this video he is shown wearing the same 'zero' shirt he wore in a video in 1995. Of course we're living in the past, because your present music sucks dick and this song proves it.

  • @deengew - He invented that shirt man, he has the right to wear it whenever he pleases. He devised his music and has the right to play it or not play it when he wants. He's not living in the past, he's continually progressing forward. You're the one tying his wearing of the shirt TO the past, not him. He's moving that image along, he's progressing the SP story. He's the "zero," the jokes on you.

  • @easternmind

    Yeah if 'moving on' is desperately trying to reinvigorate your youth by 'reuniting' your old band with none of the original members . The funny thing is now he doesn't even have Chamberlain anymore, probably the only force that would have made zeitgeist good if Corgan didn't choose the WORST vocal melodies I have ever heard. I believe the jokes on YOU, my good man. This isn't Smashing Pumpkins, it's a cash in. Enjoy the new 3,067,487 shitty ep's

  • COOL

  • AWESOMENESS

  • Filmed in an emo strip club? Awesome.

  • @freakboy1992 dude emo girls that arent fat are hot, if there are no emo guys there I WANNA GO TO THE EMO STRIP CLUB!

  • motherfucker of a grower

  • Who are we to tell what is right and what is wrong? Billy Corgan is the definition of The Smashing Pumpkins.

  • @grafiene you disgust me

    Smashing Pumpkins after 2000 literally makes me gag

    They were so good, and then they ruined eachother.

    No blame to Billy, but the band's not the same without the original members

  • @grafiene

    Like I would give a fuck if my opinion disgusts you or not. Hah.

  • @grafiene yeah, pretty much. Theyre still good, but you gotta admit the original Smashing Punpkins were better

  • @dombaglivo

    Yeah, I have no problem admitting it, it's obvious.

  • @grafiene

    Agreed. Watch "If All Goes Wrong", I bought the DVD a while back, but Billy talks a lot about his new band and his definition of Smashing Pumpkins.

  • @grafiene and besides in pretty much all recorded music you hear its Billy playing all the instruments. Its just live that there we others. Basically as long as William is in the band it can be SP but imagine he dropped out.... even James, D'Arcy and Jimmy couldnt have done anything with it!

    .

  • @grafiene he wrote pretty much every song by them anyway

  • THE SMASHING PUMPKINS WAS : Billy, James, Jimmy and D'Arcy. That's was real Smashing Pumpkins.

  • @SootStars oh yes

  • those were the 90´s SMASHING PUMPKINS... now we have the 10´ (is this right?) SMASHING PUMPKINS.. it´s all the same cuz Billy does all the job

  • @SootStars More Like Billy and Jimmy are the real Smashing Pumpkins Billy did most of James and Darcy's parts on Siamese Dream

  • @SootStars AHAHAHAHAH then i bet your dumbass would enjoy finding out that this song was written during mellon chollie and the infinite sadness

  • @LookatDatMasterWeezy No fucking way! this song was actually written that long ago?

  • @SootStars smashing pumpkins was jimmy and billy.james and d'arcy just held instruments.

  • @SootStars yeah totally because james wrote all the songs oh wait no he didn't

  • @SootStars yeah some of their new stuff is ok, but Bullet w/ Butterfly Wings and 1979 were my themes growing up, even now they are what I listen to and go "Man the old Pumpkins were so bad ass". It makes me wish i'd been a teen in the 90's.

  • @SootStars a zillion of thumbs up for you my friend!

  • @SootStars :Yeah its "Billy and Friends!" now .

  • @SootStars they have always been amazing no matter who has been in the band.

  • @SootStars Except for the fact that Billy played 98% of everything that wasnt drums on the albums! :D

  • @SootStars  yeah because darcy and james wrote the all the great songs...wait no they didn't

  • @SootStars

    Yeah it seems that everyone likes to live in the past. The new Smashing Pumpkins is about MOVING FORWARD!

  • ~The drum and bass in this~

  • This song is shit im disapointed

  • That bass line at the beginning is just creepy... in a good way of course.

  • yeah but smashing punpkins with billy,james and d'arcy were awesome!!

  • @MusikSkull live, yeah, but since Billy wrote all the music and recorded all the guitar AND bass parts for all the albums himself, even if D'arcy and James were in the band today it would still sound exactly like this.

  • @JonnoThomas james and billy wrote mayonnaise, just sayin

  • is this on an album?

  • @sebinfearandfaith nope it was released for guitar hero

  • @813loonatic WTF ???

  • @federerules yep it was made for guitar hero world tour i believe, and they performed it during the 20th anniversary tour. and they released the video on myspace

  • @813loonatic but this was performed when the mellon colie album came out

  • Much too repetitive to be a really good pumpkins song. Not that it doesn't sound good, its just that its not really anything to write home about either.

  • Hey guys, let's go into After Affects and see how many transitions we can use!

  • The director for this fricken Rocks !!!!!

  • I like this song, and the video is really good too. For some reason, I keep thinking that the chorus from "The Everlasting Gaze" should be in this, right after the "one last trip to Hell" part.

  • @soramic that's exactly what he did! Billy wanted to bring the pumpkins back, but James and D'Arcy didn't want to, then Jimmy did for a while but he left. So now that's what this is... just Billy, and everyone else is new. Everyone else is just there because Billy doesn't have eight arms.

  • when he shaved his head, it all went to hell. this is not "going back to their roots." this an attempt to capitalize on the name. "come on baby. drive me crazy"? really?

    that's not Pumpkins.

  • THEME OFICIAL PPV BOUND OF GLORY 2010 OF TNA WRESTLING

  • @azul17 no that would be FOL

  • To RONJON 9, yeah its not the same without James and Darcy because they are ones who wrote songs like Bullet, Today, 1979, Disarm, Jellybelly, Cherub Rock, Quiet, and oh wait a minute no they fuckin didn't, do some pumpkins history if you decide to post Pumpkins videos online ya jackass....anyways thanx for postin the vid I was lookin all over for it!! : )

  • @damn26serj i don't necessariy disagree with you. ya the old pumpkins was awesome, better in many ways even. I've been a pumpkins fan for 16 yrs and as much as i like and relate to the old stuff, we can't turn back the clock. Instead of trying too, i choose to support BC in his endeavors now. it doesn't matter as much "which" pumpkins is better, only matters that great music is still being made. i'm a billy corgan fan regardless of the name of the band

  • Jesus! Everyone complained about the experimental electronica stuff, and now that its back to it's roots, people still complain, maybe more than ever. This song kicks ass and is one of my faves....

  • @mechapakmei this song is great ill admit but its really not the pumpkins

  • Thats good :)

  • Billy never needed James and D'arcy. Go NEW SP!!!!!!!!!!

  • @TheJaezus thats all you can call it "the new SP" because its really not at all the smashing pumpkins you can only understand if you grew up listening to the pumpkins and if you did you obviously didn't perceive shit from their original stuff

  • @TheJaezus

    But he DID and DOES need Jimmy... Nobody but maybe Danny Carey of Tool can bang like Mr. Chamberlin....

  • @larryoduncan Couldn't agree more. Jimmy is a fantastic drummer and the Pumpkin's sound just isn't there without him. But Jimmy needs Billy just as much; one might say that the Pumpkins are defined by their collaboration.

  • @TheJaezus new SP is badd listen to his new album not his new singles.

  • Eh. The new stuff isn't near as good as it was back when Siamese Dream came out. But when you think about it, is ANY music as good as it used to be? No. The magic music had from the 60's to the 90's is gone. I'm 17, and I openly admit that my generation's music sucks balls xD

  • I actually liked the song..... Hehe. Not like their old stuff, but not bad..... I liked Billy's "Zero" shirt at the end. :)

  • The smashing pumpkins kick ass!

  • Anyone see the very very last second where Billy is wearing like a white zero shirt with black lettering? Was this intentional or just what was recorded after didn't get cut off?

  • why is this disappointing?

  • James and Darcy did NOTHING and are nothing. watch the 666 tapes, James contributed on like 4 songs out of a catalog of how many?

  • Great song! And this has been around for years, if you listen closely to "Pastichio Medley", you'll find there what feels to be a raw version of this theme. I am a huge Pumpkins fan, and i have to say i too prefer the "older" SP, but one thing i have to say: Mr Corgan, i am overwhelmed by you. Definitely, light-years ahead from anything i've ever heard. SP Forever!!

  • @pulseezar

    Listen to "Pastichio Medley" @ 1:57. This was "drawn" in the Siamese/MCIS years ;)

  • That girl is fuckin hot

  • the guitar is pretty cool but billy's vocals have really changed and not in a good way

  • Hot girls with Pink hair are the best.

  • what is this off of?
