smashing pumpkins Godzilla (Blue Oyster Cult)

[Velocity9s]

Sacrelige!

[Deinodicus]

this is BS

[Doomajigger]

Fu Manchu does it better.

[sooprcool]

@Doomajigger Yes they do.



[MegaRiktane]

If your going to cover a tune,,Do it in Good taste,,Keep it tight,,This is just Filler,,,I can do this drunk also ,,But I think it would sound better

[1953chevyable]

sucks big time.

[xXGatumadreXx]

WTF is this !!!

[Jatspage]

ItsCalledFlowYo...



[egcroan]

This cover really misses the point of the original where the timing is really tight with actual times where they have placed something called a "rest" but if you musical training is as weak as these guys who like much of the Hair band Heavy Metal Bands of the 80's tend to overplay. The guitar SOLO is an insult to the dramatic style of Buck.

[lightning10231]

GODTHISFUCKINGBLOWSOMFG!!!

[TheSPumpkin100]

Apparently Billy was drunk at this gig xD

[OxBigly2010]

Sounded like Smells like teen spirit in the beginning

[SCROGY]

@OxBigly2010 You mean SLTS sounds like Godzilla.

[redFIREballKID]

OOO CHONGO!!

[mobrules1981]

SUCKS!

[SheikhTaqiyyameister]

Holy shit!!!

Smashing Pumpkins!!

Fagzilla!!!

[brottarnacke]

This sucks. The original is better but the best version is the one by Fu Manchu.

[seanLeonard1000]

@brottarnacke I agree with you 1000000000000000000000% THIS SUCKS!!!

[wheelworker1]

dont care for smashing pumpkins but this is good.

[xINFINIAx]

the BOC version is much better than this shit !!

[LedWilde]

I love SP but don't think their covers are that good. Except this one! Well, backtracking... The music is great! The singing is a little bad. I like it!

[Hexed4Life]

Other than the bad "live concert" sound quality and Corgan's wonderful ability to get lyrics WRONG i kindda like it.

[Hexed4Life]

"waves to the people in the center of town..." ???uhhh no, it's "Wades through the building towards the center of town."

[johnnysteel442]

I like the pumpkins but this is just crap. Never defile a classic from BOC..

[uberpwnige666]

This cover is so much more energetic than the original. the original is damn good...but if this was a legitimate recording i think itd be better

[dkitty8124]

oh no! There goes Aberdeen! Go go Kurt-Zilla...kinda funny,but Kurt always said the teen spirit intro was more influenced by Bostons more then a feeling...i've even heard an intro of teen spirit with Krist Novoselic singing more then a feeling

[marty0]

I think this Smells Like Teen Godzilla fusion is fun and funny. Go go go Godzilla!

[Stickyjazz1]

Fucking Noise. Smashing good music pumpkin eaters

[TheWolfman510]

This doesn't really sound like Smashing Pumpkins. More like a nirvana-like band.

[jukinj3]

I prefer the original.

[Under2darkheart]

this is fu manchu i swear? billy doesnt sound like this

[pjautuvas]

@Under2darkheart No, this is not Fu Manchu

[matdoomn]

Hate how people diss this cover, think people miss the point that all they were doing was having fun and the actual cover is good, with a twist by themselves. Well, it is just your opinion anyways.

[wanderer711]

Would have been cooler without the pics of Smashing Pumpkins

[Haeresiarchonte]

Nevermind whose band is this. It's just an insult to the original song and Blue Oyster Cult.

[hutbaat]

Dudes, THIS IS THE FU MANCHU version!!!

Don't fcuk with the FU!

[RyanLies]

suuux

go for the original

[Rickat1964]

Megadeth should should try doing this song.

[Tw1stedMoogle]

Man this is horrible! lol

But then again i have never been a SP fan, i just adore this song (original) and wanted to hear their take on it.

Even though i think it sucks hard, i still respect them adding their own twist to it.

[fallenbrainable]

FUCKIN AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

[bukinga]

they really sucks !!!

[seanmj1washere]

What.. The.. Fuck..

[headdick3941]

ewwww

[REDSKINrey]

WTF this fucking sucks

[nutz4all]

WOW, this seriously sucks...but then again, consider the source!!!

[mafed451]

like the pumpkins but still .i could play this better slapping my belly and farting .

[InsaneChicano1]

fucking faggs

[MissyMicole23]

Sampling music,cracker style.

[Ryanonbass]

Is it me?" This sounds a lot like Metallica (I know its not)

[Stask1701]

B.O.C. meets Nirvana.....

[Gamagachee]

All of you guys ofcourse weren't fans of the Pumpkins to begin with ... you're not even 90's people, I'm assuming. I mean, it was Billy Corgan who helped Pink Floyd get inducted in the hall of fame, a prime example. 

[dummytree]

@Gamagachee Thank you.70s hard rock is part of Billy's roots, he never denied it and was never tongue in cheek about it. It's funny to see people react that way :it's not as if "Godzilla" was the most serious song on earth to begin with, it's not HOLY.With all due respect to BOC, I always thought it was kind of silly.The Smashing Pumpkins were playing it on early tours , adding their own twist to it, and having fun in a club somewhere. It's not meant to be a definitive rendition.

[bradluck11]

racer x gozilla (live at the snowball of doom) is ther best cover of this song

[punkrockefeller]

god awful..............

[Vijzier]

This is crap.



[mothra1000]

I saw this show. Chicago Metro with Bhang Revival and Tad. "nuff said...

[monsterpistol2000]

you know people i don't see nothing wrong with this band sing godzilla

[TheDude4077]

actually, cobain himself said he took the riff from "more than a feeling" they just happen to be the same chords as in godzilla.

[MaroonCamaro]

Fuck yeah. Billy Corgan rocks!!!!

[dmillen1029]

No words for the way this went so terribly wrong

[Spartiakid]

they way they did the into, it sounds like smells like teen spirit

[XxComablackxX1937]

I'd like to see a live video of this Lol... When was this done exactly??? What year? Early pumpkins or after they went to shit?

[paclingan1992]

How the hell did Kurt Cobain get brought up in these comments? Either way he was insanely creative with his music in NIRVANA if some people here associated him with Smashing Pumpkins, and his music is unfathomably more creative than "rock" music today.

[Ninety6Inches]

The reference to Cobain was that he stole the Riff for "Teen Spirit" From B.O.C.'s Godzilla. Same riff, just played alot faster.

[roflwaffles2347]

oh no they say hes got to go go go curt cobain? lol

[jeggaboomlikedrugs]

the original is better!

[rackasaurus]

Sorry. Ya tried, but no group can match it. Period.

[crutmauler]

Out of tune, out of time, Generally poor musicianship...

Smashing Pumpkins SUCKS!!!

I bet they are really embarrassed about this total crap.

[muler321]

Try the Fu Manchu cover, IMO Fu Manchu does it better than the original.

[jb2xp]

@crutmauler The point of this wasn't to make a great music, was to show that Kurt cobain Wasn't very Criative, this looks A LOT like Smells like teen spirit.

[PerennialLucidity]

fantastic drummer, but the rest suck. check out jimmy chamberlain's jazz trio.

[emphaticleech]

@crutmauler I bet they're not.

Either way, great, interesting cover. Love the Pumpkins. :]

[SparXvsGodzilla]

prefer the BOC original version or the Racer X cover, This version is not bad but a bit too nasty for me. Cheers.

[tenaciouslee90]

GODWTFMOTHERFUCKINGZUKIEROFLMA­O

[pigletized]

I love the Pumpkins as well as BOC and covers are nice but this is like only good when your drunk - at best.

[TheBonoglasses]

fuck this is so uncrunchy. I can't even stand it, I'm going to listen to BOC.

[sanhenkez1993]

There is a song where godzilla is fighting against what is the name destoryah lied so as not come with me

[kosmicwizard]

The whole point of The Smashing Pumpkins doing this song a couple of times live in '92 was to show Nirvana fans that when you speed up BOC you get smells like teen spirit.

I guess one could say this song smells like Godzilla! Cheers.

[TertiusOculusOris]

Kurt you bastard.. Also if you reverse Smells Like Teen Spirit you get Rape Me.

[doughyatt1]

wow............... this is fucked

[MoyasSparrows]

This is a great song, just for the energy and stupidly OTT solos etc, irrespective of its adherence to the original. Which was pretty much just slower. It's more fun to moan, I know.

[AskTheVillageIdiot]

Saw the Cult live at the Swing Auditoium in San Berdoo. If ya don't know that's the place where the Stones first played in the US and Jethro Tull opened for the Zep on their first tour. Cult totally rocked, this band sucks.

[nedspig]

lame

[ThatChickLiz]

This sucks hard.

[uaidavi]

so much worse than ble oyster OMG i'm outta here

[Lukkatm]

Fu Manchu rocks

[cjricheson]

NONONONONONO

[NightHedgehog]

Wow. I'm sorry, this just destroyed what made the song good. Fuck you, Smashing Pumpkins.

[rtvandle]

dammit i love this track

[mtleycrueboarder]

Check out Fu manchu's version of this song, amazing...so fucking incredible.

[sooprcool]

Dude, i have to agree. just watched it. and i creamed my shorts.

[mtleycrueboarder]

Aha I know right?? So fucking heavy :D

[Steelmike13]

they destroyed this song man the guitarist really blows on this one

[beeboper13]

ok this is just b-a-d bad! Blue oyster cult is the only way to go on this song? And nintendo freak whatever... What do u mean teen spirit? If this symbolizes teen spirit to u then u must also envoy squirting vomit into ur ears. U want teen spirit just stick to nirvana. They are 50x better than smashing pumpkins. BOC 4ever

[uaidavi]

u'r right

[eleazar606]

two words...too bad

[jackeroo02]

Smashing Pumpkins has done some good songs.....this is not one of them.

[ansemthehunter]

Too fast

[yugipokegodzillasaur]

IT RUINED THE BLUE OYSTER CULT'S REP!

[FSFchannel]

This is crap.

[evilpasty]

I f**king love The Smashing Pumpkins but I gotta admit this blows :-(

BOC all the way!!!!

[rovebeetle]

this one sounds like godzilla choking on a guitar, the BOC version is a hundred times better

[nintendofreak64Lucas]

Teen Spirit!

[kosmicwizard]

@nintendofreak64Lucas You figured it out! They are making fun of Nirvana by stealing the song from BOC. Cheers.

[captdcc62]

That guitarist is a joke. He sounds like a 6th grader. I play in a band with a 17 year old guitar player that can blow him away.

[kosmicturtle29]

Corgan is really the only down fall to this cover... there is no finesse to his voice.

[verneleeper]

cover is shit... Billy corgin couldnt cover his dick with this song he blows balls all night he needs to be castrated

[terrorist105k]

No not right

[Mournbalde]

WTF is this shit! You F*cking hacked up a great song

[sooprcool]

not me personally. the pumpkins did. ( in your opinion)

[igotbiscuts]

wtf?? this isnt billy corgan! or the smashing pumpkins!!

[sooprcool]

in fact, yes it is. this was at a concert in the very early nineties, Billy was probably drunk off his ass or high, and the quality of the recording isn't too great. but yes this is the Smashing pumpkins.

[fakename1314]

This isnt about playing clean and slow. Its about jumping out there and getting the crowd poppin. I say, mission accomplished.

[AndenRegerar]

Eww..

[omarthethug199]

It's like Godzilla and Grunge into one AWESOME COVER!!!!!!!!!!!

[mudhoneytrm]

smells like godzilla? awesome cover though.

[jj43567]

this cover is undeniably shitty, but i never knew billy could rip like he does at 2:50

[sooprcool]

oh dude, i don't like this cover either, i just posted it cause it wasn't on youtube yet. but if you want to see billy REALLY solo, type in "Billy corgan 1985 guitar solo"

[PerfectPinkJinx]

i love u!

i fucking love u!

thank u soooo much for getting me into smashing pumpkins!!

i wanna have wild sex with u right now XD

haha

[deadteddiebear1177]

LoL at Solo.... i like the cults solo better tho. but this song rocks

[areze666]

this cover is awesome, but I like Blue Oyster Cults a lot better, they play it a lot cleaner and slower

[killtyzidox]

Fucking awesome, pumpkins rule.

[BruceBeefcake]

I like the Smashing Pumpkins but this just makes my ears bleed.

[TheUnholyCross]

fucking gay

[sooprcool]

your computer monitor must be really shiny, so you must've seen yourself in it and wrote what you thought about what you saw.

[deadteddiebear1177]

HAHA! epic pwnage!!! u rock!

[Dagon17]

This cover is terrible!

The original is by far the superior.

This gives me another reason to not like Smashing Pumpkins ¬_¬

[homerowhomolol]

Ok this cover my not be great but I'd like to see you be as good as the pumpkins!

[dghiggins]

i was just in the bathroom,and i think that the sound coming from my ass was just as good as the pumpkins...the results resembled a pumpkin too. this is awful

[homerowhomolol]

Wow, that was pretty mature stuff right there. Anyway i know this cover sucks, but the band isn't bad.

[dghiggins]

siamese dream and pisces isacariot were decent, i'll give you that, but the moment billy corgan uttered "the world is a vampire", they became shit. that song started a very bad downward spiral for their talent (somehow, they were able to form a new fanbase of goth kids, but the people who liked them first started dropping out of the pic. and yeah, i am immature. so.

[homerowhomolol]

Yeah, I agree that Bullet With Butterfly Wings is pretty annoying, but I like most of their other songs.

[WRCinspired]

omg thank you for uploading this song it fucking rocks

[SPZero0]

The pumpkins rock, fact, and i love Godzilla, but the Matthew Broderick one sucked balls.
