I remember in the early 90's wanting this song. I liked it so much it hurt. It wasn't on any of the regular SP albums, so I eventually had to find the soundtrack to a movie it was on, and buy the CD just for that one song. Things were different back then. Now I just do a super simple Youtube search.
They filmed this the exact day I was born! I sure as hell wish I was at that show to see this instead of being stuck in an underemployed Californian hospital haha
@evanhippieman - Did you ever notice how thin his hair was getting? He was balding. He didn't really have a choice. That would be kind of disgusting having him look like an 80's Kim Mitchell.
I didn't know this song went back to 1992, I thought it was from 93 or 94. Interesting. I graduated high school in 92 & unfortunately that sound wasn't getting to the east coast yet, we still h ad hair bands & MC Hammer at that time. It creeped in slowly in late 91 after Nirvana broke. I brought a casette tape of Nirvana to school in my art class will never forget everyone wanted to see the naked baby on the cover lol
oh man...i can feel another smashing pumpkins binge coming on. every year or so i go a couple months listening to nothing but this band and delving into any and every aspect of their sound. here it goes.... :)
@avedic LOL, that's exactly what I'm going through. I started listening to them non-stop all over again. This usually happens to me when I have so much crap around me. I flash back to when I was a kid and everything just felt better.
@Kingnothing8585 ha...same here. my SP binge only lasted a month...now I'm on to an equally good, but contemporary, band...The Kills. excellent band in their own right.
But yeah, I distinctly remember the first time I heard SP. I was 12 and it was 1995 and I was on a class field trip to washington DC. we were on a greyhound bus, a bunch of 12 year olds lol. I loved that trip. it was my first look at life "outside home" and my first exposure to music that wasn't my parent's. such good memories...
You too? Seriously this is exactly what happens to me, too. My binges occur less frequently than they did a decade ago, but there are oceans of SP music to swim through...especially the b-sides. The more obscure the song (in many cases), the better.
who the "f" could dislike this song... .come on now... maybe its billy and the new crew, and realizing that this material could never be topped. w/o getting into the politics of music, it must chaos as a performer hitting your peak at like 26, and then never being able to capture that "it", that made you what you were.... I know Billy has moved on etc, but to this day, he knows that this was an amazing period in his and the band's time, its a shame they couldnt keep it together...
Does anyone know why Corgan balded so quickly? He had a full head of hair in '92, and looked like he never had hair by '95. Did he just shave it off or was it like how Michael Stipe quickly balded?
@theindianguy94 he shaved it off because he started having male pattern baldness very early although I'm sure that's something that helped him make the final decision.
@infradig8 I'm only 17 and I already think that most of the music today is terrible. Most of the early 90s alternative was just amazing. The music ranged from heavy,dark rock bands like Alice In Chains to softer groups like R.E.M. But, those bands were true to themselves and didn't submit to what their commercial labels wanted, and that's what made them great. Now, I'm stuck w/ BS like Drake or Vampire Weekend.
@GAdawgsfan93 I'm sure not all is lost! What do you think of bands like Drive-By Truckers, The Hold Steady & The National? Retro sounding but still very much here and now.
@jfowler88 Buy Siamese Dream. That album is an absolute classic. Gish is pretty good too, but it's lacking something that Siamese dream has. For the song Soma alone buy Siamese Dream.
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. no need to be an ahole about it.
The sound quality sticks. the song is repetitive and the lead is just noise and feedback. I see no talent here. By the way I dont do drugs but I think u would have too 2 like this crap
lol no shit everyone is entitled to their opinion, but YOU were being the dickwad to begin with!
What kinda person who dislikes a song, let alone a band, to keep coming back over and over just to say "This is crap, this is crap, I have to be on drugs to like this."
@icu469 wow shut your god dam mouth do'nt fucking watch the vid if you don't like kepp your opion to yourself no one besides you values it so go suck a donkey you ass and keep your mouth shut cause you aren't getting anywhere
@icu469 I agree with everybody that has proverbially assfucked you about your comment - I wish, that in relation to the the 'vote up', 'vote down' and 'flag for spam' icons we could have one that is a balled fist that's called 'Punch That Fuck In the Head'. that would be top fucking notch.......and you would be getting a fucking beating.....
I live here in a little town called Seattle Washington i"m 34 and I watched these guys for the first time and it was absolute magic and I saw Nirvana high as hell on stage Sound garden playing down town Pearl jam playing at Magnuson park in 92...but the pumpkins were amazing!
So many wonderful memories with this song. I used to sing this with my old band in 92-93 and was always a favorite of mine to sing. I have a video of us playing it at some little bar and the audio sounds the same as this clip.
yeah hum is sweet. if i'm not mistake, hum and the pumpkins (and maybe also poster children too?) all came out of the same illinois music scene, so yeah ...
Hum came out with these two singles "Hello Kitty" / "Roar, I'm a Tiger" in 1992... the name of the first song and the sound of the second are very very similar to Hello kitty kat (originally released as a b-side of Today, 1993).... is hard to determine which group influenced the other, anyway... two great bands
@probalmend I once met a guy when I was working at GC who claimed Billy Corgan stole "Zero" from his band. They quote "used to share a practice space."
I was laughing pretty hard until he left... then I was laughing really hard.
When I saw them back in 96 they were the best. Also, they put on a free show in Minneapolis in 98. I just saw them at the Palms last year in Vegas and it was still worth going.
There was alot of good stuff at that time for sure. Not just in the US, but in the UK. That shoegaze and Britpop stuff was cool and some of my favs. In fact, Billy Corgan was into that stuff like My Bloody Valentine. I think music went downhill for a while when those boy bands and fake divas came out. It took awhile, but there has been some good stuff coming out in the last couple of years. Check out Blonde Redhead, Asobi Seksu and School of Seven Bells. Great music that is new and original.
You're Native. Me too! I'm Oglalla Sioux and Cherokee with some Irish and Spanish. I checked out those bands and they were old school which was nice. I'm glad there is some good music coming out finally and I think I have some new bands to check out. Thanks.
There is some good music today. You just have to look harder and not in the mainstream. Check out The Current. It's a radio station here in St. Paul. They play alot of good new music like music like this. But, I know what you mean.
i was at this concert! how awesome is youtube that you can find footage from old shows you went to so many years ago. i was way at the front so i didn't even know this was being filmed.
i remember this show blew me away. it was shortly before siamese dream came out and it was a bit of a 'secret' gig in that it was only announced a few days before the show. i have vivid memories of that dress & james iha riding out on a little tricycle at the beginning of the show. good times!
I'd agree, but the 90s pushed rock up another notch. Before the 2000s trashed it. Much like the 80s trashed the 70s. Hopefully there's another rock "renaissance" out there.
You all will die when I tell you what show I passed up in the early 90's. Red Hot Chili Peppers was the main act. The opening acts....Smashing Pumpkins and Pearl Jam! Pearl Jam used the show to make thier video alive where Eddie jumps up to the balcony and hangs. That was in St. Louis, Mo at the American (Orphium) theater. They did two shows because the first show sold out so fast..small venue. I kick myself everytime I think about it.
It's so great to see all of the younger people here wishing they were alive when this was all going on...it's you all who keep great bands like this going...I was 6 when this show was going on...I feel each and every one of you. Keep rockin' everyone!
Billy always sounds awesome live. I mean, this is perfect. His voice sounds the same as his studio recordings. The Pumpkins have been my favourite band of all time since I was 13. I have reason to believe that my teen years were all the more memorable because of this band, and because of how strongly they were a part of my life for all that time. Not a lot of bands have what it takes to be that significant to someone. The Pumpkins rule.
The riff is fucking fantastic, but the bassline is even better. It just takes the riff to another level. Amazing song!

this is probably the best of corgan and chamberlins well known masterpieces. . .
90's revolutionized music in a huge alternative and creative way
and this is just proof of it

the 70's and 60's were the best for rock and roll

I'd agree, but the 90s pushed rock up another notch. Before the 2000s trashed it. Much like the 80s trashed the 70s. Hopefully there's another rock "renaissance" out there.

You all will die when I tell you what show I passed up in the early 90's. Red Hot Chili Peppers was the main act. The opening acts....Smashing Pumpkins and Pearl Jam! Pearl Jam used the show to make thier video alive where Eddie jumps up to the balcony and hangs. That was in St. Louis, Mo at the American (Orphium) theater. They did two shows because the first show sold out so fast..small venue. I kick myself everytime I think about it.

Billy always sounds awesome live. I mean, this is perfect. His voice sounds the same as his studio recordings. The Pumpkins have been my favourite band of all time since I was 13. I have reason to believe that my teen years were all the more memorable because of this band, and because of how strongly they were a part of my life for all that time. Not a lot of bands have what it takes to be that significant to someone. The Pumpkins rule.
