@anmana7 I agree. it's really bad. I posted this vid because of how extraordinarily bad it is. I have some 23,000 hits on this clip in the 4 years I've had it up, which is far more than my other SP clips, and everyone hates on it
Yikes. Big Pumpkins fan, but this is for sure NOT their forte. I've seen Corgan struggle live before. But, this song was pointless for them to even attempt.
WOW....way to fucking butcher a classic song. Corgan sucks...he sounds horrible. I love how the crowed cheers regardless of his vast lack of talent, or horrible guitarists....
i was at this concert. it was an epic fail of a cover by the pumpkins. i remember thinking how bad it sucked, and i am a big pumpkins fan. they DID however play some good old songs including "hummer" and "set the ray to jerry" so it wasn't a total fail. this however, was terrible
I like the Pumpkins but this is worse than their cover of "Don't You Want Me" with Melissa Auf Der Maur on vocals. At least it went down better with the crowd than that stinker did.
Oh MY GOD ...this sucks so bad they should just drop dead ! :(((( Shame ...destroyed a legendary song ...damn idiots ...they dont know shit about music ...
I like CCR and i like Smashing Pumpkins---but this cover is just terrible--its too Smashing Pumpkins-a-fied to be Born on a Bayou--this is just bad--my God,woah,honestly,some covers should just not be made...
i was there, but they sucked major ass!!! A reunion band that plays their entire new material??? What kind of BullShit is that??? I was a Huge Fan of the Pumpkins my whole life, now...I'm not so sure. They sucked @ VooDoo. In the other hand...Rage Against the Machine freaking ROCK THE STAGE ON FRIDAY!!!
I like the new SP material about as well as anything else I've heard them do, never thought Billy was all that special in his songwriting or performance. But even though I'm not really a fan of the Pumpkins I thought it was a pretty cool show.
I was there too. Judging by the angle this was recorded at, I'd say you were standing directly to my right-hand side while recording this. Very possible, too. GREAT show. Loved every minute of it.
Came here after hearing "Ramble Tamble" by CCR... About 2 minutes into the song it gets very Pumpkins-like.

This is the worst cover ever. I came here after hearing the Foo Fighters and the Slash/Daughtry/Chad covers which were so much better.

You need to have the right voice to cover CCR. This cover is so bad it comes across as a mockery of a classic song and band.
