The Smashing Pumpkins - A Song for a Son

[Picollo30]

the best from teargarden

[dinke50]

This song prepares my existence to be sacrificed for the good of my kids..for the good of humanity..Only Solution=Revolution!

[Sikamikanico999]

horrible mix on this song.... totally ruined it

[TechieRefugee]

Well, I guess we should be calling it "The Smashing Pumpkin" now, since Chamberlain's gone.

[TechieRefugee]

@TechieRefugee *Chamberlin. I'm always doing that. Derp

[beatlevato]

The arrangement is that of " house of the rising sun" -even same guitar chords.

[Buzzisms]

i feel like he speaks to me with this song

[nicholsjoshua15]

This song is as deep as you can get. He's mourning the loss of the son he never had, and feels the pain of the loss even though his son never existed. That's why I love The Smashing Pumpkins they make music that is above most people's head.

[QualityOfTheBeard]

This, and Tarantula, might just be the best two songs released in the last decade.

[Malingo25]

@DasBurger

Hell no. This is one of their newest songs.

[DasBurger]

does anyone know if this was back when D'arcy and Iha were in the band?

[kleidokymvalo]

I am one of many more, many more to come, many more to come...

<3

[Bmaylor]

70th person, but not the last, to like this song :D

[jmInDreams]

Welcome back Billy, but t0 me you will never burn out or fade away-

[ShalbririKenshin]

why is this not on itunes

[justbourlier]

Did Jimi Hendrix come back? That solo @2:55 - 3:37 is rocking!

[zenritho]

there's a justin bieber fan who saw this :@

[dream4fillahh]

He took my words as a figure of speech

Because I'm lost for them...

WOW

I hope there ... many more to come

[shiftersofwar]

This is a song for a dove

This is a song for a blown up bird

The kind that don't return to the nest

This is a song for a star

This is a song for a space invader

Who flew into the sun

Never to return

Never to return

thats honestly my favorite verse.... completely love it =] and the song itself, but that verse rlly sticks out

[Maquiladora83]

A return to form, and no error!

[TitoIsTheGreatest]

this is pretty fucking good

[MrCosmos69]

I am one of many, many more to come, who tottaly understands this song.

Honestly! A full of hope song.

[jeff551z]

massive hand in the pic

[ManSteel13]

tasty solo

[shiftersofwar]

the solo is so fucking amazing!!!!

[nblfan]

The arrangement of this song really reminds me of Stairway...

Having said that tho, its still a fucking great song and def not a cheap ass rip off!!

[JimothyBrandywine]

@nblfan I thought the same exact thing upon listening to it!

On that ascending progression, I started humming "And she's buying a stairway to heaven.. mmmmm mmm mmm" xD But agreed, definitely a great original by Corgan once again :D

[Kornfield123]

Does Billy have 8 arms for this? No not for good solo but is he doing all the instruments?

[thetheRedundant]

Billy's coming out swinging

[angryparrot]

This is totally going to make up for Zeitgeist...

[shiftersofwar]

smashing pumpkins are insane!!! :D

[jmInDreams]

[PullMyFinger21]

Smashing Pumpkins can still do it!
