Smashing Pumpkins - Cherub Rock (Acoustic)

[JTWillie2006]

Ive always wanted a 666 shirt, does that make me bad!? I just think it would be flappin special if i could have a 666 shirt ya know.

[bajuriphd]

who wants... thats honey..as long as we have...D'arcy

[MurderYourFriends]

God, fucking Billy Corgan man....just... fuuuuuck. :')

[GRen1990]

disgusting voice

[CondescendingGod]

@GRen1990 you're disgusting

[Chatmire72]

This is great, but for some reason I am always bothered when I see an eletric bass on an acoustic performance............

[steveos111]

sweeeeet

[sreid32]

baby of whatever generation. Good bands come and go I will forever love them.

[JonathanLindroos]

WOW is that nicole playing the bass?? o_o

[nagramash15]

@JonathanLindroos who is nicole? The woman playing the bass is known as D'arcy Wretzky

[JonathanLindroos]

@nagramash15 oh my bad i thought of someone else

[seanjamshidi410]

is it just my crappy headphones that stop me from hearing the solo? it looks incredible :(

[codedecode]

holy cow i just noticed this! totally escaped me before. good find, and it's not your headphones, i have good ones and can't hear crap either. from the looks of it, billy's guitar isn't even miked! james', is, but i don't even see a cord coming from billy's, so only the people that were there in attendance could hear billy's solo? its been lost forever. BUMMER MAN.

[AndrewAmaro]

A amazing song on eletric but lendary on acoustic

[Cmepvp]

The harmonies between Billy and D'arcy are amazing. Not too audible but just enough to hear. Wish they would have turned up D'arcy's mic up a bit. Sad how she has ended up.

[ladyheather82]

BadASS Acoustic Versions ROCK! Love the Pumpkins!

[KurdtKobain09]

that's one fucking brilliant drummer. One of the best I've seen and all I need is this video to prove it.

[420jdank]

what is up with the "666" though????

[satanicinternational]

@420jdank Billy representing ... nuff said.

[420jdank]

@satanicinternational representing Satan??? I dont care if he is or not the music is the shit....

[420jdank]

ya man, this is the stuff....this song makin me high!!! what is up with the "666" though????



[420jdank]

ya man, this is the stuff....this song makin me high!!!

[SuperHenry18]

my copy of Vieuphoria died pretty quickly. if I remember right, the listings for Vieuphoria and Earphoria had different track listings

[itskragus]

2:38 most epic "whoo" in all of recorded history.

[ladyheather82]

I actually like this version better than the original and I can't say that about too many songs. I miss the old pumpkins too?! And I bet Billy misses his hair! LOL

[MrJCization]

I miss the old pumpkins...

[uberbigbread]

the bassists and the other fucking guitarist look dead

[SuperHenry18]

@uberbigbread probably because they wanted to kill billy

[evils501]

where have all the good times gone?

[switzerlicious]

I remember the day I found a copy of Vieuphoria at the used record store. Had to wait a whole f*n week for a paycheck to have money to buy it. And I remember the anxiety that I felt walking back into the store hoping that it was still there... and it was. Fastest drive home ever.

[YoshiAddict]

@switzerlicious The version of Soma from that concert literally changed my entire perspective on what music could become...

[volpericky]

where's the rest of this set???????????

[95AnnieAnnie95]

i can't believe this was 18 years ago! the 90's are becoming distant :(

[acercadelejos]

i´m from argentina and my english it is no good, but i understand you, i miss the 90 too!!!the best decade, when i listen the music of 90, my heart cries...

[sharkfantast]

Ah, 1993. The year when Billy still had hair.

[Pwnzor729]

Can't believe it, I can't find ANY of the studio versions of this song left on youtube. What exactly are these goons trying to accomplish? Piss off all the Pumpkins fans? Further tarnish the relationship between consumers and record companies? Well they've succeeded, assholes.

[23melodicas]

D'arcy brings so much to this performance.

[uberbigbread]

And so he shaved his head

[Destructionboy23]

So what. They sound so perfect acoustic.

[Tyme4Cryme]

only bad thing about acoustic: That solo was soo damn silent..

[HopeVJustice]

10 years on, still one of my altimate fave bands!

LOVE their songs!

<3

[ele2249]

Everything about this song is perfect. Thank you.

[Destructionboy23]

Just a perfect song. It's better played acoustic than studio. Much more better.

[shelleybofelly]

Looooooooooooove me some Smashing Pumpkins!

Side note:

These people arguing over the other's age during an era of music must not have anything else to do with their time.

[kindofmagicmike]

the only thing that defined the 90's to any one person is whatever that person did in the 90's. (everyone who thinks otherwise is a self-centered prick)

[linktronics]

Does anyone just comment on the music or is just a bitching Columb???

[ColorfulHyena]

hehe it's 4:20

[megalorain]

This is an awesome video when they had Jimmy Chamberlin (fired for drugs)- and D'arcyy was clean also fallen into drug use. (SHAME) James and Billy just look mm --WOW . This is HISTORIC!!!

[specialist1983]

God, D'arcy is so beautiful!

[WWMASTERSWORD]

can someone tell me how to do this solo

[mrcorpsman123]

Wow he doesn't look like voldemort in this

[channelrafy]

FUCK VEVO

[Raad187KO]

cant believe i never searched for this, considering i love the album version, nice upload!

[christmasman428]

Anyone else notice Billy's shirt?

[matrixenigma420]

@christmasman428 yeah i did. wonder where he got it from?

[timaaahh]

Weird to see him not bald

[GhirardelliSquares]

Best acoustic rendition of anything I've ever heard, and both Billy and D'arcy are singing especially nicely in this one. They totally made Cherub Rock introspective without taking off the edge.

[MegDog360]

i was in utero while they were singing this. just saying.

[GodImHideous]

@MegDog360 young ass bastard

[dooginator3000]

cool shirt bro!

[elmtreeroad]

miss 90's must fuck beiber

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@elmtreeroad You're a faggot.

[TheKickjunior]

Freak out

And give in

Doesn't matter what you believe in

Stay cool

And be somebody's fool this year

cause they know

Who is righteous, what is bold

So I'm told

This is best song ^^

[Ruddteen]

darcy is hott

[kWkPkUSA1]

possibly the best acoustic version of any song ever

[StupidTeddybear]

Darcy use to be soo beautiful. What happened. oooya drugs

[KitKatPack28]

666! Yes, hilarious!!

[jkbosh]

this really holds up musically and technically!

[MIvarsson99]

James is a pussy.

Darcy is a bitch.

It was a huge mistake to let those two in the band.

[plopknot]

@MIvarsson99 dude, you sir are a complete FUCKTARD!!! like you'll ever amount to anything you docile piece off shit :/

[MIvarsson99]

@plopknot LOL. I can tell from the contex of your sentence that you have no fucking clue what "docile" means. That's hilarious. Please explain how thinking James is a pussy makes me obedient and submissive. Go for it, you mongruel, moron, fuck.

I'm waiting...

[DOCTORWHOTARDIS13]

lol he's wearing a 666 shirt

[HumanPuddingPgh]

Ugh EMI took the official video down..... So annoying. What a ridiculous shirt by the way.

[Nukemace90]

See this is a perfect example of a band that sounds as good live as they do on there albums, Brilliant!

[slashman5]

so my school has accoustic guitars for us to play in music class ive been playing for four years so i know some songs i play this song while the students were trying to play a scale but my dumb ass teacher yelled at me for playing this. she didnt even know who the smashing pumpkins were, and shes only 30 she was born in that era!!!

[spo0o0ky]

@slashman5 That's school for you. Fuck individuality and flourishing thought. You must conform to everybody else and their standards, preferences and thoughts.

[heartshapedbox75]

he´s one of the best singer i think :)

[supsapsup]

anyone know if the sweater corgan is wearing is still avaible ?

[jorgealves2142]

melhor musica *-*

[marvel63ironman]

i want Billy's shirt SO bad!

[youmomhowdo]

Billy's flipping off the world!

[wojtek0000]

I ascertain that Billy rocks!

[armsofdelmar]

theres just something about this acoustic performance, just fucking awesome... hooneeey

[Samarasix]

very good

[jjblackhawk94]

3:54 did he fart?

[Superstarseven]

D'arcy couldn't spring for an acoustic bass?

[Pattonfrodo]

@Superstarseven ha ha I was thinking the same thing! (I am also a bass player)

[whatsinthebasket]

what a fukin work of art it dont get any better

[whatsinthebasket]

what a fukin work of art

[link116100]

D'Arcy is so beautiful

[whatsinthebasket]

@link116100 yeah i have had a huge crush on her since i were like 12 hahahahaha

[error9900]

Billy looks like he's 12 years old in this.

[slashman5]

i think he sings better sitting down because when he sings and stands up it sounds bad but then when he sits down he is relaxed

[MarkieB89]

Damn. This is just about the best damn acoustic version of any song i've ever heard. It just flows from beginning to end.

[975mas]

Lol I love how Billy makes that squeaky sound with his voice through out the video..

[akumamenra]

music at its finest!!! pumpkins- kiss and make up and bring back this fuckin awesome music to us the world needs it!!!

[xHoleInAPaperHeartx]

Uhh, isn't Billy Christian anyway?

[SoWachuWan]

@xHoleInAPaperHeartx but he wasn't at his badass time... which was good.

[XxMissNoNamexX]

@xHoleInAPaperHeartx Billy was SUPER mad at God at the time, something I can relate to, so he wore a 666 shirt.

Is that what you're referring to?

[ForgottenSoul700]

@XxMissNoNamexX, Or the pumpkins sold thier souls to the devil and they represent the always operating illuminati.

[jessie354]

who did he do the eyebrow raise to?? 2:26 and he just flicked us off 2:36 lol

[jessie354]

such talent!! good lyrics, voice, rythm, AMAZING!! what happened to GOOD music??

[jessie354]

mtv sucks now, all the Teen Mom shows and Jersey Shore and pop music and just all crap. WHERE'S THE GOOD MUSIC??

[HedeenJeff]

To bad hes into Satan....ASk Jesus Christ to save you, call upon his name! He has the power to save!

[NickBernzz]

@HedeenJeff LOLJesus

[HedeenJeff]

@NickBernzz our either a child of the Devil or a child of GOD. Theres no in between. Check out his shirt. Whats on it? He has apoint about the honey and the money though.

[NickBernzz]

@HedeenJeff too bad god's not real, and we are children of our parents.

[raderw311]

@HedeenJeff actually hes a born again christian

[666satanlovesme666]

@HedeenJeff having a religion is like having a penis, its okay to have one, its okay to be proud of it, but dont whip it out and wave it around in public, and dont try to shove it down people's throats.

[mcconnachiea]

@HedeenJeff So you're another one of those shouty christians that thinks that shouting around that all other religions are sin and lead to eternal damnation in hell. Tell me, whats so wrong with being an atheist with a conscience? I give to charity, help friends and people in need and know my right from wrong..... anybody who NEEDS god's guidance on right and wrong clearly should have been brought up better :)

[MansonFan64]

@HedeenJeff I tried Jesus once but then I saved 15% by switching to Geico.

[1979rickfukingjames]

@HedeenJeff seriously??? wow you judge

[lemonademoosejaw]

his voice is overpowering the acoustic instruments lol.

[afromanola]

ha billy's shirt

[Cwoka94]

the drum kit is huge

[bezzleboss682]

@Cwoka94 you dont need a big drumset to be good

[CaptMidnite1968]

big THUMBS UP in my book.

[Malingo25]

Lololz at Internet fights. :D

[stejohamu]

Absolutely love SP acoustic!!!!

[JTWillie2006]

I want a 666 shirt too. At least then i could look respectable! or I could be a pumpkins fan bustin out!

[cockywatchman1976]

[danmang92]

[HippieFilms411]

[WataAtaCrackah]

@Bennihanna23 what? I didn't know D'arcy Wretzky was a guy. no but seriously it's a chick

[Bennihanna23]

@WataAtaCrackah he said the blonde guitar player is hot, last time i checked D'arcy play bass. (not trying to be a dick :D)

[andywilli666]

wicked!!

[0o0oOoOoO]

Favorite,. awesome song.. 

[shiftgood]

What the fuck this is the best song I've ever heard

[Stumbleina81]

My ultimate favourite Pumpkins song of all time. This was the first song I learned to play on guitar. Amazing band and totally defined the music of the 90's.

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@Stumbleina81 MC Hammer defines the music of the 90's.

[mfnstudioschannel]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai Lol, no way! The Smashing Pumpkins and Green Day defined 90's music ;)

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@mfnstudioschannel Ace of Base defines the music of the 90's.

[mfnstudioschannel]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai Haha, you must be freaking insane xD Ace of Base??? That's a Swedish Eurodance band xD I'm pretty sure many will agree with me, when I say that they did NOT define the 90's at all xD i didn't even know them until you wrote their name xD

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@mfnstudioschannel You were a baby in the 90's.

[mfnstudioschannel]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai lol, what are you talking about xD? I was a KID in the 90's, and The Smashing Pumpkins aired on the radio even years after their carrer peak. and even a 2000 kid like my little sister knows that Ace og Base didn't define the decade. It's like saying I don't know that Beatles and Rolling Stones defined the 60's, or that Led Zeppelin and Lynyrd Skynyrd ruled the 70's. I wasn't born in the 60's . but I still know very much about the decade ;) Once again you are wrong ;)

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@mfnstudioschannel You don't know anything about the 90's. Spice girls defined the 90's. You were a baby in the 90's. Laughing out loud!

[mfnstudioschannel]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai No, I'm the one laughing xD In case you didn't get my message, I am a 90's KID, NOT a BABY ;) Spice Girls sure did define POP music, but only in the last 3 years of the 90's. Green Day and The pumpkins defined the entire decade. If you ask me, Spice Girls never defined anything. They were just a trend like Backstreet boys (shitty music by the way). I won't comment any further on this subject ;)

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@mfnstudioschannel How old were you in 1990? You were a baby. Laughing out loud! You don't even know who Ace of Base is. Laughing out loud! The great rapper Snow defines the 90's.

[mfnstudioschannel]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai Ohh, you almost bring tears to my eyes (that's how much I'm laughing right now). You are so pathetic dude xD You are clearly unable to comprehend the things I write. That's what I call "The opposite of Intellect" xD

[kindofmagicmike]

@JohnLawrenceCobraKai

you're being a baby right now

[JohnLawrenceCobraKai]

@kindofmagicmike You were a baby in the 90's.

[kindofmagicmike]

@kindofmagicmike

you were a baby in the 20's, does that mean you can't listen to and appreciate jazz? none of us were alive in the 1700's but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate classical music like bach, vivaldi, and beethoven

[dafyddoe]

@kindofmagicmike Well said!

[themidnightgardener]

@kindofmagicmike I was alive in the 1700's.

[ADDrific]

@kindofmagicmike i personally like Pachelbel lol

[27natedogg1]

@kindofmagicmike i was alive in the 1700's and i hate claassical music!

[wgalois]

@kindofmagicmike i was alive in 1700

[MrJowilson9]

He is flicking everyone off in the first part haha 

[faridjabba]

great, what others form that performance here pleasE_?

[donza01]

What a guitarist Corgan is.The guy is amazing.

[Minacious]

Why these guys never did Unplugged is beyond me...

[bulletisaninja]

Billy was so hot when he had hair. Oh my Godddd.

[CONMURDER]

I always wanted that shirt! Had this on vhs until It was finally released on dvd!!! The lost 94 tapes sizzle!

[SargentAnus]

I want that honey!

[Aozzy6495]

that guitar riff just gets my dick hard

[CheckThisSaw]

@Aozzy6495 hahahahaha me too

[impailed72]

@Aozzy6495 its just music dude.

[Bleach15tm]

@Aozzy6495 you sure you weren't looking at billy's sexiness?

[alipinkaka]

@Aozzy6495  LOL

[WhiteDeVil3]

@Aozzy6495

Heh, 88 people, including me, are listening to this song with a raging boner, rock on : P
