just felt someone destroyed this song for me by all the over emotional bullshit, the banal pictures and that 'no more real music is made'. this is just magic, ok?! and magic is still made.
this song is good to evoke emotion and remember one that you loved and the disco stick one like the one Borderlander800 mention is good to dance with the one you love so you see how music serves its to make life better they are both good. true one is in deep thought and the other is for fun both sound good to me
this song is so much more than most of the songs from my generation some times i think i am alone and then i listen to this song and that makes me fell better knowing that some one has gone throe pain that i am feeling and the whole world seems to be lifted off of my shoulders because i know i am not alone;)
The people who say good music is dead are obnoxious. They are to busy worrying about what everyone else listening to instead of appreciating all the good musicians out there still writing music.
@RedxFaction Well I agree that there are many artist writing good music, we have no choice but to deal with what is mainstream. Once upon a time you could turn on the radio and stand a fair chance of listening to good music. Thank whomever we have the internet.
I finally have a theory about this song...it isn't about being in love, it's about losing a loved one that never understood him, but in death she finally understands him, ironic considering that though she finally understands him all he can see in her eyes is "a vacant sea" but it's just a theory...
this song actually had me out lookig out at the stars and thinking about the girl i was with at the time it was soooo sweet!!... minus the "dead eyes" part
This is such a Beautiful song , I love to blast it out through my headphones & just close my eyes & let the music just take me away ! WoW long live The Smashing Pumpkins
I am so tired of young people saying there is no good music these days. There is a TON of good music these days. The 90's were the 90's and that kind of music is gone. But there is so much fantastic Trance, Progressive House, Electro being made these days. Honestly, just dont be lazy and go find it.
Its beautiful beyond words. Eloquent and poetic. A forgotten art. This is what our generation is missing, music that evokes genuine emotion. What do we sing about now? Empty words and disco sticks.
Billy Corgan described his wedding day, writing that while the priest spoke he looked into his wife's eyes and thought she was a million miles away. He makes constant reference to her eyes in this song: "Dead eyes vacant as the sea." He didn't enjoy the wedding day and in the night when his wife had gone to bed he went out and looked up at the stars and thought he had made a mistake, hence "by starlight."
I'm making a mix of good, depressing songs... I've got this one, Soundgarden's Zero Chance, AIC's Nutshell, and Tom Petty's Good to be King... any ideas?
@templeofcoy Throw in some classical music in there, try Beethovens Moonlight Sonata. Some non-classic, You Know You're Right by Nirvana, Dust in the Wind by Kansas, Lithium by Evanescence, Hurt by Nine Inch Nails (Johnny Cash does a good cover of it), Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, Rape Me by Nirvana, and To Forgive by Smashing Pumpkins.
@princehartsea i wouldnt say of all time, thats kinda ignorant to say.. no offence but led zeppelin 4 is, with songs like stairway to heaven, rock and roll, and well must i go on?
No offense taken. What I meant to say is that this far and away my favorite album of all time. Obviously, Led Zeppelin IV had an everlasting impact on rock as a whole, but this album had an everlasting impact on my life and my taste in music.
@princehartsea well that's good, some music means many thing to people. To be honest one song thats always kind of stuck with me is Whistle for the Choir by the fratellis. Its a little different but I can really relate to the lyrics. So i can completely understand where you're coming from
The metal militia will be attacking Justin Bieber's video (justin bieber baby ft. ludacris) on the FOURTH OF JULY! Assemble all fans of good music in every genre! (Jazz, Metal, Classical, Classic Rock, GOOD rap & Hip Hop etc.) On said date leave a comment giving your thoughts on JB,. Copy and paste this comment to all the good band videos! (Thrash vids, led zeppelin, black sabbath, composers, jazz composers, GOOD rappers like 2pac and biggie etc.) Thumbs ups please!
This was the first album I ever bought "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" and its One of only Four albums to this day, that I love every single track on, the others are "OK Computer" by Radiohead, "Deja Entendu" by Brand New, and "Disintigration" by The Cure, the 80s and 90s were the golden era of Music, 2000's... Not so much..
About as good as music could ever hope to be and as anchored to our memories as any other recall mechanism the human body can offer. The sound of The Smashing Pumpkins. As much a part of all of those who love them as the sun that shines upon us.
I've lived this. Broken desperate love. Just finding someone will keep you with them. Its the wrong way. Because its vacant just like he says. Nothing stable in sight.
So long self-esteem. By starlight we all look lovely.
Wow, I'm so impressed with the comments on this video. No haters to be seen anywhere. Heh, I was only ten years old when my favourite band split up, but i do believe that this was the kind of music that brought people together back then. I've never seen such a harmonic string of comments on any website. You give me faith in the internet, people, and music; all at once <3
este disco es tan triste... pero a la vez tan rabioso y tan memorable.... demaciados sentimientos se evocan al escuchar este disco... para mi una joya de la musica de los noventas... necesario para comprender esos dias grises...
One of the very best on Mellon Collie. Have loved this for years and it still sounds as good as it did the first time. That massively chorused guitar chord in the second verse: pure goosebumps! Best guitar sound ever - I reckon. Genius.
I heard this song was recorded originally at a higher pitch but they slowed it down so it was a half step lower and that's why it sounds like every note hangs there. the sustain is longer but in a different way than just holding the notes...also those drums are so drowsy and sluggish. LOVE IT!!!
No, not about the tunning. We can here a delay on the clean guitar ringing like water flowing and easily audible @ 0:36. It is also close to the effect used on the guitar on SOMA in the 2nd verse (~2:00).
mann i wish there was a video on here live of them doing this song i cant find any really well i found one but the recording quality iss shitt,other than that just acoustic performances :/ if anybody can find any let me know please?
this songs guitar that starts out and plays in the background sounds basically the exact same way when played backwards. in fact the entire song kind of does except for the words of course.
i...*sniff*...love this song; it's just completely Mellon Collie. Normally I'd say this song "screams" Mellon Collie, but no, no...it bestows it. One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard...a perfect song that just touches the heart...amazing.
I completely agree! i havnt bought a contemporary album for years! ive actually be drawn to classical music of the 18-1900s & discovered some beautiful music, faure-pavane,in paradisum,ravel-daphnis et chole.The music of today seems like a futuristic 80s!
Oh my god that Mellon Collie vibe just soothes me, the whole album just paints a picture of the richest midnight sea, and contrast blue. just such musical genius.
thats so awesome. my boyfriend introduced me to billys music and i fell in love, this is our songoh an fyi if he played it for me at our wedding i would defiantly count it as a vow =)
Such a great story. By the end of the CD he has completely forsaken 'god' and sought greater power with black or lucine 'god'. He has tumbled down the rabbit hole and eventually come out as a completely transformed person. Dead eyes, he recognises what he's become. It's like a love song to his new 'god' (dead eyes).
This CD has many layers and levels to it. It sings a lot about transformation and initiation. If you've studied that sort of thing then you see it throughout the songs. Of course there's a basic level which anyone can see but there's also a story of dying to the world that has forsaken him and initiation into that "other". Throughout history, this type of transformation has been a great secret and layered in symbols and signs.Like Machina is all about this alchemy. Just look at the CD cover.
it's about Chris Fabian... He has blogged many times about this time in his life and relationship with her, and believing that the vacancy in her eyes would change once they were married...but she still had the distant sadness.
I'm just actually getting into mellon collie and I have to say, I heard a lot of music and was trying to find an album that lives up to my expectations and this is proably the best album I have ever heard.....ever!
That makes me wonder what kinda person would be turned off by the SP's AWESOME music, just because Billy Corgan has...get ready for this...A REPULSIVE VOICE
It makes me wanna wonder, indeed
I'm not that person, just some random asshole that made that comment about the Watchmen trailer (Couldn't the ass just turned off the sound as he watched the trailer?¡)
I like his voice, it's very honest, it is imperfect and some people might like that but it contrast the music and then blend simutaneously.. it creates a magic, if you took somebody with a perfect voice like thom yorke it wouldn't be the same.. billy's voice is an ingredient REQUIRED for the smashing pumpkins pie
And in all honesty, Rock is full of unconventional vocalists. Look at guys like Kurt Cobain, who basically yelled to show emotions. And Billy's voice is beautiful in a very original way.

I once came across a fucktard in a form that claimed that Billy's voice was HIDEOUS and REPULSIVE
...
I don't even want to know what that creep deems as a beatiful voice

My God. I haven't listened to this song in over a decade. Forgot how stunningly beautiful it is. Whistful, somber, sad, and so so beautiful...

Such a great story. By the end of the CD he has completely forsaken 'god' and sought greater power with black or lucine 'god'. He has tumbled down the rabbit hole and eventually come out as a completely transformed person. Dead eyes, he recognises what he's become. It's like a love song to his new 'god' (dead eyes).

no.
it's about his wife or something, and thinking that she regret getting married to him.
I think he wrote it on his honeymoon

This CD has many layers and levels to it. It sings a lot about transformation and initiation. If you've studied that sort of thing then you see it throughout the songs. Of course there's a basic level which anyone can see but there's also a story of dying to the world that has forsaken him and initiation into that "other". Throughout history, this type of transformation has been a great secret and layered in symbols and signs.Like Machina is all about this alchemy. Just look at the CD cover.

it's about Chris Fabian... He has blogged many times about this time in his life and relationship with her, and believing that the vacancy in her eyes would change once they were married...but she still had the distant sadness.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Isn't it weird how similar the melody and chords are to the "Starlight Zone" from the first Sonic The Hedgehog game?

That makes me wonder what kinda person would be turned off by the SP's AWESOME music, just because Billy Corgan has...get ready for this...A REPULSIVE VOICE
It makes me wanna wonder, indeed
I'm not that person, just some random asshole that made that comment about the Watchmen trailer (Couldn't the ass just turned off the sound as he watched the trailer?¡)

I like his voice, it's very honest, it is imperfect and some people might like that but it contrast the music and then blend simutaneously.. it creates a magic, if you took somebody with a perfect voice like thom yorke it wouldn't be the same.. billy's voice is an ingredient REQUIRED for the smashing pumpkins pie

And in all honesty, Rock is full of unconventional vocalists. Look at guys like Kurt Cobain, who basically yelled to show emotions. And Billy's voice is beautiful in a very original way.
