  • You remind me of the leak in my soul..

  • he has torn his voice screaming but this still sounds great

  • this song is fantastic , i love billy corgan and his music !!!!!!

  • UHHH.. his voice changes in this song.. listen to the album version.. this is incredible.. Billy Corgan is a genius.. He knows what he is doing.. stoked to hear this.. AMAZING

  • i´m in heaven

  • :(

    

  • they always perform naked, if you know what i mean. that's why i adore their music.

  • Was he drunk ? I think he sings very weird. He's voice not egal. He always change the tone. I don't like. It's sad because it's one of my favorite :-( But could happend...

  • @noellerappo His voice was changing from th high pitch to the lower pitch you would hear on Zwan, The Future Embrace, and the later Smashing Pumpkins work. I hope I cleared that up for you.

  • @nicholsjoshua15 Hi, I understand. I like normally when change the tones in a song but here I didn't find it was well done. Even I think Billy is very great. Hope don't hurt you. Have a nice day ! :-)

  • @noellerappo Well this song was normally one of the final songs on this tour. Concerts of 2 hours to 3 hours. They were Tired :S (sorry for the bad english)

  • Gorgeous version, really.

  • PRophet? Egomane!

  • Take a day, plant some trees

    May they shade you from me

    May you children play beneath

    Billy Corgan for life!

  • yeah!

  • I love SP, and this probably ranks up there as one of my favorite songs, but goddamn he's an awful live singer.

  • @spaced1nvader I am sure you sound like shit! how dare you criticize billys voice. and by the way FU you stupid tard......

  • @seriouslygofyourself you're right, I don't have a great singing voice. your point?

  • @spaced1nvader I agree. I found this video all psyched about how mindblowing it would be, but no. :D

  • why must all the good bands always stop :( i wish they where still going on like they used to :'(

  • I love this song but damn.... watching this video makes me glad I never spent any money going to a show.

  • Billy would have never ever made it i any of these goddamn casting shows à la "american idol" - and that´s exactly why I love him and his voic so, so much!!

  • that piano synth sounds amazing. i like this better than the album version. i'm possibley the biggest pumpkins fan ever (a title claimed by many i suspect) but i dont care for his lower octave singing at the beginning. but when he breaks into the higher octave OMG the chills!!!!

  • Agree that the synth , makes a huge difference alright. I think tho unless he could do backing vocals and lead at the same time he had to start low so theres more impact when he goes higher. Still remember this song the one and only time i saw them live. Was incredible! Was away the only other time i could have seen em live so paid over the odds to a tout but well worth it!

  • @timmya4000 You should check out the version they played at Sydney 1998 concert. At the end they break out into a full electric version and Billy plays this epic solo that gives me big goosebumps.

  • D'arcy wasn't there on that tour, Melissa replaced her.

  • So what? You can't still want D'arcy to do the high parts?

  • @alukuhito no...she wasn't there....

  • @heathparkes10 - Your comment makes no sense. Are you talking about D'arcy or Melissa?  I think everyone here can watch the video and acertain who was or wasn't there.

  • @alukuhito you asked if you "ca't still want D'arcy to do the high parts". and i said no, because she wasn't there. you may have wanted her to, but it's not possible. pretty simple.

  • @heathparkes10 - You're talking to the wrong person. Talk to the person I originally was addressing. Anyway, I like both of the gals who have done their tenure as "bass player" in the 'kins.

  • uau just uau fucking beautiful

  • so beautiful pumpkins!!!

  • they should release this whole concert on cd it's amazing thank you to whoever posted this!!!!

  • You're damn right, dude. Unfortunately, Billy doesn't care much about those times. I'm still waiting for the damn "last concert" dvd... I mean, now it's too late and Billy already said that he's focused on the present.. i guess we'll never have the chance to watch that...

  • my favorite song!!

  • Comment removed

  • I love the song.. billy you're the best .. forever SP

  • amazing song

  • COOLNESS

  • Comment removed

  • o god, i love that ebow work by james, freaking amazing.

  • i absolutely love this version - i'd go as far as to say it's better than the original

  • Comment removed

  • my,what a performance! very gothish along with those repetitive cold synths and victorian lantern hanging above Billy`s head.

  • my fave song! :D

  • its amazing how great this song is and how simple the chords are

  • happy birtday billy corgan (my peygamber)

  • James had nothing to do with this song... So why give him credit? I dont know what you mean? If you open your eyes Billy was the ONLY member that never left for any reason and have tried to keep the band together everyone eles Gave up or gave in to whatever they were into at the time.

    Pumpkins Before Now & Forever.

    mm*

    .

  • I'll plant some trees to shade me from you

  • i love the way he sang during the machina times

  • so sad, so true....

  • When he start to just let go, 1:30-ish, and onwards...Magnificent. Billy Corgan is far from being the most technically talented singer, but I don't think there's anyone with more soul in his voice.

  • so enchanting and beautiful!!ong live the pumpkins:)

  • Adore this song

  • corgan prophet

  • lofl!!!

    

  • Awesome song, but I think he's a little too stoned in this rendition.

  • he doesn't take any substances

  • he took lots of ecstasy while recording Adore apparently

  • that's some what correct. It was during the grandiose Mellon Collie period that he did.

  • i are you kidding me. really??

  • yeah its why he loved/hated their success. It was great that they had it for sure. But not what pressure and two-faced people that came with it according to Billy.

  • Smashing Pumpkins: simply the best! adore... :')

  • Wow, this is a terrible rendition.

  • Comment removed

  • This is one of my favorite songs of all time! Brilliant!

  • so amazing my favourite song ever

    John lennon would have loved it he wouldve been SO proud Billy!

  • what does this have to do with john lennon?

  • uhm, nothing of course. sorry that was my brother using the account :P

  • So sad so amazing

  • f@ckin great and sad..:)

  • adore is the best cd ever!

  • beautiful song...

  • ^_^ When I was 7!

  • I was seven too, in 2000!

  • a perfect example of good this band was,is,and forever will be.smashing pumpkins forever

  • Amazing performance.

  • HE COMES AS A DEAD

    & HE IS FAMOUS

  • HE COMES AS A DEAD

    & IS FAMOUS

  • i really love this song, i like the version album and this as well, i never imagine this song at live version..incredible fucking song!!

  • who was playing the acoustic? Jimmy?

    and the keyboards?

  • Mike Garson on the keyboards/piano. I'm not sure there is an acoustic guitar, but if there is, I don't have an answer for that one. Their touring lineup at this time was:

    Billy Corgan, Jimmy Chamberlain, James Iha, Melissa Auf Der Maur, and Mike Garson.

  • Duh.. I must be dreaming. What I thought it was an acoustic gutar is probably just the keyboard playing chords through my crappy laptop`s speakers..o.O

  • This is fucking great. Such an underrated, yet beautiful album.

  • I like the album version and I absolutely love this live version.

  • wouaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

  • Yeahhhh.... blank page like me in front of my screen... lol

  • My favourite band, awesome song, unbelievable album.

  • Great song. He sings this song in a deeper voice live then on the Cd, on the CD he songs it softer. Awesome either way. :) Sing on Billy.

  • Fucking awesome :):):)

  • this version is beautiful, specially the final sound

  • love this song sadness!!

  • greatest band!!!

  • come spaccano x dio

  • My favourite Smashing Pumpkins ever from the best album they ever made. I went to their Sydney ADORE concert hoping he would play this. They never got better then that incredible album and this fantastic song. If just for the creation of this alone your amazing Billy!

  • anyone out there have other live versions of this song????

  • very good performance. it's weird seeing billy without a guitar though

  • great performance, terrible synth patch. I wish they could have just used a piano :-(

  • AVA ADORE genial!

  • Best Pumpkin Song ever...

    mm*

  • we had this during our wedding ceremony - was great....

  • excellent

  • Absolutely agree with you mpapapao, cant see any bands like the pumpkins around.

  • This is a truly brilliant performance.

  • one of the greatest songs ever, deeper than the ocean floor

  • man, i love iha's ebow in this song.

  • me loves billy ♥

  • what the hal? Why is he singing in full voice? this sounds like shit.

  • I love his voice, so different and unique. Much better than all the cookie cutter bands out right now.

  • yes!

  • Such a good song... The best live performance of Blank Page I've never heard.

  • STOP SON....!

    FUCK YOU ALL - IT's One OF THE BEST SONGS EVER!!!

  • yeah It's a really awesome song

  • I've heard singers who have been on stage for longer than 2 hours sing twice as good. Its a good band but hes just a lazy live singer like ingwis said.

  • the fucking pumpkins

  • fucking oath its the motherfuckin pumpkins!!!! BLANK PAGE WAS ALL THE RAGE.......Welcome back bitches

  • His live singing is really lazy.

  • Are you even an artist? Then shut the fuck up. Try being on stage for 2 hours and doing that shit. Thats right. You can't. You can't even sing. Shut the fuck up. Most artists are lazy on stage to protect their voices from breaking like the pimply little faggot you are.

  • Whoever posts the same reply the most times, of course, wins...

  • magnifique...

  • may you rise

    as you fall

  • This Song Saved My Soul.

  • beautiful song

  • Billy's live voice could be better though.

  • Yes! Smashing Pumpkins and Radiohead are my two favorite bands as well.. couldn't agree more.

  • If you see this please reply to me I am happy to find others who have these two as their top bands they the true musicians of our time and have the appropriate attitude towards music and life and our soul.

  • Every single song that belongs to this band sends chills through my spine, no other band has done that to me.. so glad they decided to reunite..

  • Have you ever heard any of radioheads stuff. Them and the smashing pumpkins do it to me.

  • Hell, yeah, I agree. Those two are the greatest bands that ever existed in the last 25 years.

  • freakin right pumpkins rule

  • His hopeless, paralyzing depression came through a little better in the album version, so I like it a bit more. But, this version is still equally beautiful in its own way.

  • Album version is better. :)

  • Greatest band ever <3

  • "Take a day, plant some trees, may they shade you from me, may your children play beneath"... Billy, you fucking Genius.

  • same here never loads

  • this video never loads for me, i don't have this problem with any others on youtube or anywhere else so it's very weird.

    i want to see blank page live :(

  • I love this song.

  • roll on reading...

  • where can i get all this videos?

  • Magnifique...

  • I love this song.

  • sooooooo awesome!

  • One of the best "slow paced" SP songs. It sounds awesome when they play it all electric rock style.

  • I hope they keep the intimate format of the Machina tour for Zeitgeist. This is a powerful performance by Billy. Great song.

  • ADORE=BEST SP ALBUM

  • 07/07/07 I can't wait

  • So cool...!

  • love u billy 4 everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrr

  • Thank you, billy. You helped get me through such a shitty time in my life and now I'm finishing med school. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  • i cannot explain how much i love this song.

  • Beautiful song.

  • the album? ADORE! the feeling? AMAZING! the voice? Kinda crappy, but hey it's billy his voice's never been that good live!

  • Such a brilliant song! It's a pity they didn't play it in Sydney during the adore tour. That was the song I was waiting for. Great to see it!

  • *in tears* too! :~

  • First I want to say that you for posting this. This video is amazing. I love how Billy sings with his eyes closed and his hand up, things I do when I sing it too!

    It is truly amazing how they "Make you feel happy and sad at the same time" as VeryfarGone said.

    "You remind me of that leak in my soul"

  • billy you just make me feel so sad and so happy...i dunno how u do it but you do deserve the fame u have! u're the best..Smashing pumpkins 4 ever...expecting the new material...i bet it's gonna ROCK!

  • I HAVE NO WORDS... omg i love this song... means too much for me.

  • take a day,plant some trees,may they shade you from me.

  • May your children play beneath.

  • first time i listen to it, it gives me a good impresion and i`ll play it again ;) thanx for the vid

  • billy corgan eres de la csm carajo te amo huevon...puta mare arriba los smashing pumpkins...

  • yes, its adore

  • Dang, the other awesome live video was from adore too... I'm getting it!!! Along with Dream Theaters Metropolis. They are the only other underrated band that I think can match up with the Pumpkins.. Though I wish Billy's voice was a little smoother, the voice being little is no problem itself though.

  • Adore i belive

  • How do they do that? Make you feel happy and sad at the same time.... wow... Umm... which album is this on? I want to get all of theirs.. but there's sooo many, I just Greatest Hits, and Mellon Choly..

  • *in tears*

  • One of my favorites, but a bit dissapointed.

  • one of my favourite song of SP!

    Thx for posting it!!

  • Oh the swirling feelings that come with watching this...

    Thanks for posting this, kid. Thank you.

  • this is amazing

  • one the best videos of this great band that i've ever seen... awesome!!!

  • so depressing...
