I was there- this was one of the most disappointing moments of my life and a major low for the "smashing pumpkins" if that's what you can call them after their breakup and half-assed "reassembly"
WOW! Two of my favorite artists, although so different in style, on the same song?? "Disarm" was the first Pumpkins song I ever heard and then I became a huge fan. And I love Josh's voice! I'm so glad this was recorded. Amazing!
I never heard this song before. I'm sure the original is great BUT I have to say that Josh did an awesome job with it. How can you say it's bad? It's beautiful. His voice gives me the chills. And I love the jeans and glasses too. Wish I had been there - I would have travel for hours just to hear Josh sing this.
myfebsong- it's a shame not everyone sees what a beautiful man as a whole josh is - talent-warm soul-giving heart-
as for those who don't like him- go watch other vids, there are plenty of them-
this man gives more than he takes , he makes sacrifices on every level you could think of- with his music and his charity- you should respect that and for at least that , RESPECT the man!!!!!!!!!
I am sure there are plenty of polite ways of people saying they don't approve of someone's performance without all the bad language. Please remeber that minors can read these commments when watching their favourite artist.
Personally I cannot fault Josh. He could sing anything to me and I would be happy.
hhaha :p not only the brains X_X the heart- the mind- the whole you-_- you start dreaming the groban way :)) yup, he melts my heart, but not just my heart, the whole me :D i hear his voice everytime, but everythime my heart skips a beat , just like the first time .... MY NAME IS LEXXA, AND I'M AN ADDICT (ps: we both have angel in our nicknames xD) Peace, Love,Respect ~Lexxa
I liked the song. It was a different rendition. That was the beauty of this concert. There were different duets and pairings of artists and experimentation.
I was there and this was huge let down. they played a very short set of new songs, which were definitely nice, but one expects to hear some recognizable songs! Then they bring Josh on to sing over Disarm, perhaps the Pumpkins most powerful song, the one that absolutely needs to be sung by Billy. the crowd was universally let down. His voice, as 'good' as it may be, does NOT work for this music and sounded awfully cheesy. then the band left without saying a word. That really got to me.
Inmy opinion Josh Groban did a wonderful job with the rendition of Disarm - it is a beautiful song and Josh Groban's soothing voice brought a hauntingly touching sound. I am sure that Billy was more than pleased to have Josh sing with him And I am certain Josh was honoured.
Same. Is there anywhere I can get this? It's probably one of my favorites now that Josh has done. I would love to have it. :)

Josh Groban and the Smashing Pumpkins; two great tastes that don't taste great together.
This is an interesting performance nonetheless.

Josh - you need to come back and sing some songs for YOUR fans. Obviously some people don't appreciate your gift.

Josh messes with our brains,haha. If they invented a crocery list I would listen to him sing that too hehehe.
It doesn't matter what he sings, he melts my heart each time!

Josh Groban did an amazing job. However, I was disappointed that the Pumpkins didn't sing any of their "greats"!

he sang well but this version of Disarm is for a whole different kind of crowd. i'm sure billy corgan fans died at the sound of this song.

What an honor for Josh to be asked to do this with Smashing Pumpkins!! Somehow, his voice made the song sadder. I like it!
