Smashing Pumpkins - Rocket

[mirispain00]

:D Me encantan!

[alansmithee95608]

d'arcy is the perfect woman

[dammbleth2]

i seem to remember something about some little pumpkids building a rocket ship, but im not seein' anything like that here. Am i crazy? What happened?

[SkateTabz]

@dammbleth2 Hey! I was just thinking the same thing. I think the original video was a mix of footage of kids building a rocket, and the band playing on the moon. But somehow this video is JUST the band playing on the moon. I don't get it either.

[metal666metal300]

billy looks like lots of fun doing this video :D

[TheSonsofHorusx]

this is only the coolest music video ever

[Pinkribbonscars]

billy is HOTNESSSS in this one!

[HM3Giggles79]

Hey I've created a Smashing Pumpkins Facebk page....come join I need some fellow Pumpkin fans (old and new) most of my friends just don't get it lol. Look for 'Smashing Pumpkin Fans' thank you!!!

[chad450f]

This song is BADASS

[StupidTeddybear]

lol born in 93. this is my first time watching this. well i thought.. Them BAM i remeber watching this on MTV when i was a little kid.... for some reason it just came to me. miss the beavis and butthead days.

[MIvarsson99]

Have you ever noticed how in this era, the music and lyrics are so murky and introspective and yet billy has this innocent, little smirk on his face like he's skipping through the tulips? It's creepy.

[joedrum]

darcy does not look hot in this video. it's just like how every time i watch a talking heads video one of the top two comments has to be "wow tina looks super cute in this...great hat!" come on

[ManilaSyndicate]

Corgan created something truly brilliant and pretty unique with "Siamese Dream"

[myworldisntcrazy]

@ManilaSyndicate Corgan created something brilliant with this band

[jeandywarhol]

illuminati symbols everywhere!!!!! Just saying lol

[brandonlacavera]

@jeandywarhol i caught this comment just before heading of to to work what a fucking laugh that is make money find some good music and fuck every one else get your self a spot and make a stupid knot of cash real

real speech

[Lizardking2021]

@jeandywarhol maybe there are symbols in it, maybe the video director threw them in, because I dont see this band making gobs of money hand over fist at this point. (a new album is underway tho. Devi Ever is talking with Billy-C about some new Fuzz gear)

[FireHo57]

man... i miss the 90's.....

[Slushy66]

One of the best videos ever!

[KarlaPippo]

consume my love, devour my hate.... ahhhhh, this IS MUSIC!

[Irvinggeor]

Wow, this was a really good time for music.

[saint0fchaos]

I will always have this love n attraction to the bass player - visions of long kisses the warmth of her skin - see its bad

[punk137ya]

Darcy in her catsuit-thing is the hottest thing ever. That is all.

[punk137ya]

Does anyone else think Darcy is kinda hot?

[Porcelina777]

I love Billy's curly hair.

[tinarsiffel]

reminds me of early 90's south street in philly, getting high out in the open and no one cared, everyone was so much more relaxed back then , i miss it

[SovietDictator]

and Jimmy looks like Snape in his garage band days.

[distortionpf]

Billy Corgan is a genius

[95railflip]

Don't hear much about them these days over in the UK. I think they were one of the greatest American rock bands ever.

[greygrey40]

Severus Snape at the drums OHLRIGHT!!11

[culturaleyes]

and really awesome I should add

[culturaleyes]

Billy Corgan wrote some really unique guitar stuff

[matthewisacracker]

Nirvana and smashing pumpkins= 2 best bands

[LionsToTheChristians]

James is playing a left-handed guitar in this vid.

Best song ever.

[herbie37]

@brandonlacavera I was telling the world such things as, i shall be freee or who wants that honey, or i;m here, what do you want, i feel no pain, or cool enough to not quite see it, runaway with me tomorrow, or disarm you with a smile....oohhh oooh he is burned, i used to be a little a boy..what i choose is my choice. MAN THE SP brought me into this world thought they never did save me

[brandonlacavera]

@herbie37 positive nature bro may good luck go your way.Thanks for commenting

[Valiand]

I didn't know this song has to videos :O

[LemmyK00pa]

@countbloodula Go listen to fall out boy then, loser.

[Xomanowar99]

the asian and blonde chicks on guitar and bass respectively are hot.

[PreRenderedHero]

@Xomanowar99 Just to let you know buddy, that asians a dude...

[mimickick]

@PreRenderedHero LOL forever

[LimitedEdition500]

I'm atleast 20,000 of these views. not kidding

[brandonlacavera]

@LimitedEdition500 haha royal i must say very nice thanks for supporting

[ahomevideoonline]

@LimitedEdition500 well over 830 minutes on just this song then...

[Beahler]

I didn't know they had snape on drums

[alexandrauva]

I love this video) Billy is a good boy and vicious at the same time here

[VelcroJonze]

One of the most creative songs in the last twenty years. The Pumpkins were in a league by themselves.

[edencardim]

2:18 is pure genius, and as with most things in this very creative song, it only happens once and keeps me begging for more

[brandonlacavera]

@edencardim I understand fully 

[brandonlacavera]

@edencardim 3 mins in is when they really let it rip so fucking epic brings me back to when i used to have dreams of sitting on a wall with billy corgan when i was 8 years old purely awesome cheers

[falcoperegrinus82]

@edencardim what happens at 2:18?

[edencardim]

@falcoperegrinus82 uhmmm... one of the most well-placed pitch bends in the history of rock'n'roll?

[ThePanzerfist44]

@edencardim - Yes , a single phrase that somehow is epic and immense - unexplainable really , you just kinda know >

[edencardim]

2:18 is pure genius

[metalheadkev10]

this is this the music of my teen years i am how 21 but fuck i remember blasting this when i was like 16 and fuck i am still doing today good music never dies

[sathookup]

Siamese Dream was an amazing CD

[npathcr1]

It's all Queen at 3:00. Absolutely amazing.

[NeuralNetProcessor]

Dude where are the kids building the rocket?...this is like the wrong video for this song or something. And count bloodula can fuck off.

[MyChem961]

is the person on the right of billy a girl or boy?!?!

[hilliuno]

where is the part with the kids building the ROCKET¿?¿?

[ilecart]

Love this song. Smashing Pumpkins forever

[dimarziotonezone23]

awesome vid, awesome song, awesome band.

And Jimmy C. looks like big foot w/ make up

[spi87]

? = Philosopher Stone *Its on Billy's space suit (In this video he preaches of separating the Spirit from the Physical (body). His message Resonates within the bands Sound and Words (Energy)

[Bakedandbutterd]

they kick ass fuck the world bitch



[ronald1969]

siamese dream and infinite sadness hold their own against and 2 albums in rock history...stones beatles, the who....line them up

[bluenose5151]

One of my favourite albums of all time...perfect from start to finish....also love that billy corgan has a rush sticker on his guitar, paying homage to another of my favourite bands.

[Neodude991]

D'arcy look well hot in this vid but then again she does in them all! Oh and she can use her fingers on the Bass!

[brandonlacavera]

@Neodude991 its just about corgan all the way there is not pumkins with out him the band memebers can always be replaced witch is what happend now they have zwan but even they broke up

[bluenose5151]

@brandonlacavera You can certainly argue that corgan is the main creative force behind the band....but you must admit the siamese dream line up is as good as it gets. chamberlin's drumming, iha's guitar work are integral to producing these godly sounds of awesomeness

[davevan7]

@bluenose5151

from what I understand, MOST of Ihs's guitar work is channeled DIRECTLY thru Billy's BRILLIANT musical mind, but yer right on Jimmy...ONE of a kind!

[davevan7]

@brandonlacavera

bass & rhythm guitar CAN be replaced, sure...but Jimmy CANNOT, there is NO other drummer on this planet like him!

[XxMissNoNamexX]

@brandonlacavera ...yeah, they're doing REALLY well now. And Zeitgeist...lovely.

I hope you know I'm being sarcastic.

[brandonlacavera]

@XxMissNoNamexX your comments make no sense at all ?

[brandonlacavera]

@XxMissNoNamexX still how does it make any sense your sarcasm cannot be understood for the simple fact it makes no sense at all logically u have to make sense first.

[XxMissNoNamexX]

@brandonlacavera lol

[izyvonskuzzmonkey]

@brandonlacavera

Actually, her statement (and sarcasm) make perfect sense. You however, do not.

Logically, one must utilise simple grammar, and especially punctuation, to make sense.

PS UltraDude3, she's not trolling, she has an opinion. She has this opinion because she expects greatness from musicians. Rightly So. The music is what is important, the band (the celebrity) are irrelevant. It's not the mark of a good fan to blindly love everything an artist puts out, regardless of quality.

[TheUltraDude]

@XxMissNoNamexX The current Pumpkins are awesome, stop trolling.

[jovis909]

its a good fucking song..!

[justinclark111]

@Neodude991 that Asian guitarist chic is fucking hot as well. I would fuck her till the cows came home!

[Neodude991]

@justinclark111

Errr that's a dude. James Iha...

[Lizardking2021]

@Neodude991 Funny you say that... She actually doesn't play any of the bass tracks on the album pal... Billy did the bass tracks and then she learned how before the tour! (not to steal your thunder, I was amused when i first heard myself)

[Lizardking2021]

@Neodude991 Funny you say that... She actually doesn't play any of the bass tracks on the album pal... Billy did the bass tracks and then she learned how before the tour! (not to steal your thunder, I was amused when i first heard myself)

[Neodude991]

@Lizardking2021 Yeah, I already knew that bob. Was just saying how hawt she looks and that she can use her fingers instead of a pick all the time.

[ruinawish]

@jrolley325 A homo sapien, I presume?

[brandonlacavera]

@jrolley325 show some common respect man hold your self to a higher standard . instead of making comments keep your vibrations good man dont spread hate

[StupidTeddybear]

I Remeber watching this late at night on MTV. the beavis and butthead era. i was like 5 now im 17 and MTV sucks.

[greygrey40]

@StupidTeddybear watching beavis and butthead in kindergaurden, your so fucking cool and ahead of your time bra

[Victoria9281]

This is one of my favorites!

[brandonlacavera]

@Victoria9281 welcome to youtube :P

[KratosNinjuh8]

The bassist was fucking hot.

[666briareos]

look at how much fun theyer having billy corgan in the ride of his young life right there. look at him thinkin how awsome his band is while they play this shit. hahahaha brilliant!

[brandonlacavera]

@666briareos a good band they are mostly top 40 hits but good non the less for the people who like to have a reference listen however u seem a little down ? its xmas man cheers up 

[schmittelt]

@666briareos I always think of how many millions of people that must have 1. bought in to some kind of negative spin that could easily be put on these and many other lyrics 2. bought in to the "if it's not sincere then it's no good" hype and 3. used 1 and 2 together as an excuse to psych themselves into thinking and feeling that the world sucks and they have to be a bunch of mopey dopey fuddy duds who've forgotten that the goal is to be happy and how easy it really is to attain it.

[666briareos]

James iha on the other hand now theres a great guitar player out the 90's

[guyanaboi122]

smashing pumpkins is the best band ever. nirvana was overrated

[guyanaboi122]

i shall be fred? lol wtf

[Loueddddd]

I like the song soooooo much!!!!

[tom12mvp]

my favorite band of the 90s along with Pearl Jam. Led Zeppelin is my favorite of all time. Smashing Pumpkins kill it though! Brilliance.

[MyRealNameIsJeff]

@MyRealNameIsJeff nvm wrong video.....

[randyisgod57]

This reminds me of when I was growing up, turning on MTV back in the early '90s and being sucked into a stream of pure bliss.

[JeffroCodiene]

D'Arcy looks hot in this video.

[guyanaboi122]

James you ROCK!

[metalheadkev10]

@NoRulesInNam without this album i would of died this music saved my life

[666briareos]

@metalheadkev10 no you just suck at dying.

[yak52aholic]

music needs 2 return to what it was like in the 90's! nowdays it's all auto-tuned rap and rap stars with massive ego's.

[TheSPumpkin100]

@brandonlacavera Dude. He was joking. No need to give a fully serious answer. This is directed at your reply to the 'Can you imagine life without this album? I can't. ' question. He was just calling the album good. lol

[brandonlacavera]

haa yeah i was on a little party that time he asked a good question as i gave him a well thought out answer

[Matt68046]

this album touched me in a way i just cant explain

[ezek1039]

D'arcy <3

[zreau]

Awesome, saw them live in Ghent, Belgium in '96. Love their old stuff up to MCIS.

[valentinevibe]

Billy Corgan is a musical genius, and I'm sorry if you are of the top 40 mindset, you Really need to broaden your horizens to good music like this!

[JoshBHC]

@valentinevibe Smashing Pumpkins was a top 40 band

[micahry]

I shall be free ee eeee....Billy Corgan rocks!

[skrapyard444]

James looks like an asian david bowie

[MrRabbitoh]

This is 1 of the best songs ever made, i went and saw Smashing Pumpkins in Sydney and then the next day in Brisbane, it was an absolute pleasure to watch billy and the crew go off. If you ever get the chance go see them live, Billy is true master class.

[gamemasterzoomzoomom]

brilliant. period. Smashing Pumpkins rules

[vampire891208]

one of those billy's master piece,love this songgg

[m80]

This is a great song to wake up to. Starts your day off right.

[yeahiknow76]

One of my favorite smashing pumpkins songs. I listen to this song every day before i go to school.

[JCRdz82]

I FUCKING LOVE THE SMASHING PUMPKINS. GREAT SONG!

[102611ful]

great song

[goldenjosh123]

csm billy no voy a poder ir a verte este 25 a la capital .. mi trabajo y mi bolsillo no me lo permiten.... ay kerida adolescencia no voy a poder pagarte esa deuda q aun arrastro.... smashing pumpkins mi vida mi muerte ....

[shittybullshit]

Childhood is obviously a big theme in this album that's one of the things I love about it, you can have all the troubles in the world but just listening to 'today' 'hummer' or 'rocket' and I feel an amazing feeling that everythings alright, just like childhood.

[06hrhillbilly]

@xouyag33 yea man Danny was and still is a master on the drums. I guess I left him out by accident, But Im still stuck on Jimmy Chamberlien.

[fattyJNL]

He has hair O:

[FFGG22E]

Great song, stupid video

[vampire891208]

this song makes me feel something that nothing else in the world can

[Andreasleon27]

best song ever

[thebjm1967]

i love this video

[Dltn97]

WIKIPEDIA SAID THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS ABOUT CHILDREN WHO TRY TO BUILD A ROCKET TO SEE THE PUMPKINS PLAY IN SPACE! >:O LIARR!!

[bobsaget197]

@Dltn97 theres another version of this video

[avalanchealonso]

Billy Corgan was either listening to Rush or Harry Nilsson or both when he wrote this. The chords and music is a whole lot similar to Harry Nilsson's "Spaceman".

[jesuslh]

me hizo llorar... yo fui!!!!!! dallas.

Location: North America

Dates: July 7, 1994 – September 5, 1994

Main Stage: The Smashing Pumpkins, Beastie Boys, George Clinton & the P-Funk All Stars, The Breeders, A Tribe Called Quest, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, L7, Boredoms (first half of tour), Green Day (second half)

[riverboatsong]

I would play this song over and over again I loved it so much.

[rp78100]

Isn't it sad when the 20th best song by a band from the 1990s would be the most original, virginal, beautiful, powerful song today?

[MarkArandjus]

...is anyone else seeing hair on Billy? :D

[emeraldpegasus]

@MarkArandjus lol

[06hrhillbilly]

Jimmy Chamberlien, the most creative drummer of the 90's, with Dave Grohl being the best.

[brandonlacavera]

@06hrhillbilly i counter that with john card of D.O.A

[auralstream]

@brandonlacavera I counter both of those with Jimmy Chamberlin being better than both.

[devourerofbabies]

@brandonlacavera Neither of them have anything on Ringo.

[dsiphor98]

@brandonlacavera i counter all of you with Carter Beauford being the greatest

[vervi1jw]

@06hrhillbilly

I agree with you

[act6629]

@06hrhillbilly Jimmy Chamberlin is better than Vinnie Paul? In your fucking dreams, pal.

[06hrhillbilly]

@act6629 First of all, these are 2 completely different style's of drumming "pal", Second I love Pantera and Vinnie Paul has the strongest and best double bass drumming in metal, but Jimmy does alot more with alot less. Every one of the Smashing Pumpkins songs he played on, the drumming was different and unique. Vinnie Paul plays alot of the same stuff in a bunch of Pantera's songs. That's no a bad thing, I just think Jimmy was more creative. But both are awesome band's

[fatcatbuzz]

@act6629 I like both bands, but would have to say that Jimmy Chamberlin is a better drummer because his style touches upon a lot more areas than Vinnie Paul's drumming does. But, they are too different styles of drumming in a way. It's like trying to compare Jimi Hendrix to Eddie Van Halen.

[fatcatbuzz]

@06hrhillbilly It turns of technical drumming, Jimmy Chamberlain is a way better drummer than Dave Grohl. Dave had power and was loud, but Jimmy had technique. He could go from being loud to quiet and back again all in the same song.

[lloplop]

@06hrhillbilly you're insane. hands down, jeremy barnes.

[666briareos]

@06hrhillbilly umm what about like vinnie paul? lol that is pretty dumb comment man. get stretched.

[BrentHutchinson1]

this song rocks the shit...2 min10 seconds into it rocks the shit. It's impossible to not play air guitar while listening to it. rad/ill/sick/hep all the shit

[omitox]

SOON IN LIMA, PERU!!!! AND I WONT BE THERE :((((

[timrocket2]

orgasmic song

[Dunskaroo]

This video takes the record for most fog machines evar.

[pixiehtr]

@Dunskaroo No man they didn't use fog machines they got the crew to smoke joints and bongs. Why do you think the smoke is so rich and white?

[Dunskaroo]

@pixiehtr I wish I worked on that set!

[MechanicalChrist1]

this was the only stage where Billy's hair was awful lol

[TaiwanisTaiwan]

First time I have found the video to this. Many thanks, probably my favourite SP song. Odd that Iha looks the most off his face considering the reputation of the others. Allegedly.

[TheMachinna]

Oh God!  F*CKING AMAZING!

[theindianguy94]

chamberlin looks like the guy from mad men

[smoke420allthetime]

jimmy chamberlain looks like clive owen hahaha!!!

[Loctorpse]

I have to say in the 17 years since this was released I don't remember ever seeing this version of the video. I've only ever seen the one with the kids in it.

[johnny85041]

this song bring tears to my eyes...flawless guitar and vocals. just freakin awesome!!!!
