[syrus8623]

Love it

[FrostofDoom]

I've never heard this version. Thanks for uploading this. Seriously. Perfectly pitchy and soothing to me. <3

[laserfist3000]

love the snare/high hat combo... typical Jimmy

[link343]

@laserfist3000 It's Matt Walker, not Jimmy.

[lethuchanh]

the evidence of time appears on Corgan's hands, sadly funny though I love him so much!

We are all getting older together but the sweet memories and romantic rhythm that SP give still remain.

[moopsypoo]

@lethuchanh Totally agree. Hopefully the memories of SP will remain beyond "our" generation. Your description of what one can feel through his music you have described accurately..

[foxlight3]

@lethuchanh I think that his hand doesnt look old really, more like he just plays so much that he has some kinda goliath lefthand now.

[liveslowlivesimple]

why is his left hand twice as big as his right. gtfo

[theclockmace]

@liveslowlivesimple mine is the same way, its just how some people grow.

[warrkrymez]

Who's that in the picture, Uncle Fester?

[MrRC1992]

@warrkrymez Funny.

[999getsome]

I like this one more than blessed and gone

[midnightrun09]

i just realised something, listen to the song "17" in Adore, than listen to the beginning lines in this song, the Piano in 17 and Billys voice have the same melody

[belovedsins]

MAYBE

[theylinn1985]

Where r these pumpkins? Come back! Come back! Ik its in you still

[Dezpin234]

@theylinn1985 Your obviously not that big of a fan or else you would know that their new album comes out later this year, Oceania, or that you would know that they have already released new songs this year for their concept album Teargarden by Kaleidyscope

[epicstorm2006]

@Dezpin234 Thank you for letting us know that you are a huge fan. And more importantly, that you have time to follow the career of Smashing Pumpkins.

[valmurah1]

this is an early version of blissed and gone

[vopxcore]

fuck i love this song

[46Mondare]

creepy

[MexicanSweetBread]

Billy Corgan looks like Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor in Smallville in this picture.

[161stuff]

everyone needs someone around. i agree with the adore feeling

[ospunda]

Pumpkins' real stuff are b-sides, demos and outtakes.

[azamhisham]

people who arent into the pumpkins really haven't heard anything other than the hits

[bcristianaanina]

i've never heard this song before... 

[LadyMelmoth]

you know just how to cut to the core of me billy

[DjDaveDivision]

I think smashing pumpkins is the best alternative rock band and will be forever!

Billy is a Genious!

Greetnigs!

[22pac4life22]

smashing pumpkins r tha shit man..............whyd they havta split

[Joshuaraymalan]

Love ya Billy, but some of your best stuff is extremely difficult to find.

[polvoronn]

beautiful

[GermanPeoplePerson]

i hope the world doesnt end in 2012. i want to live a long life listening to this gorgeous music.

[ghostchild336699]

yes, Blissed and gone, i was at that HMV in toronto for the signing and concert at the government

[marinersrmonster]

HUGE HANDS!

[MrAjuin]

His hands are awesome! xD

[TheDoc7000]

Where do you find these songs?

[Noussen]

@TheDoc7000 Don't remember :( Some websites that got removed... or thepumpkins[dot]net if it still works.

[spboy420]

@Noussen This song is Called Blissed and Gone .. but this isn't the official studio verson cant think where i know this verson from but this was a machina autograph signing free promo cd given to fan i was one of them at HMV in Toronto had 5-6 songs on it, i got the machina cd still autographed so im ok wish still had this cd cant remember what the title of it was Anyone. ?

[spboy420]

@Noussen This song is Called Blissed and Gone .. but this isn't the official studio verson cant think where i know this verson from but this was a machina autograph signing free promo cd given to fan i was one of them at HMV in Toronto had 5-6 songs on it, i got the machina cd still autographed so im ok wish still had this cd cant remember what the title of it was Anyone. ?

[Amalgam80]

@nicholsjoshua15 This totally has the Adore feel to it. Adore is one of my favorite Pumpkins' albums. I never understood why it wasn't more popular.

[spboy420]

The song's called "Blissed and Gone" and is from a Promo or something, this copy im not to sure but it isn't the real studio verson, They were giving it away for free at the 2000 Signing's for the machina the machines of god tour feb 00 i just cant remember what it was called the cd but ya came in a cool multiple band pic cd Slip cover for the disc, it had 5-6 song's on it.

[nicholsjoshua15]

This song is just Blissed And Gone (The Acoustic Version), I think this maybe one of my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song. Smashing Pumpkins better B-Sides and Demos are better than most bands greatest hits.

[karlos23023]

amazing and such a powerful song......always gets to me a feeling of sadness with a smile when i hear this masterpiece...

[marmendill]

miah



[hollyspry]

Lol @ the comments here

[NinaNegative]

You can kind of hear the desperation in his voice

It's great

[RudiJunicke]

"maybe i need you around"

[ashleydreww]

@RudiJunicke It's always lame when someone copys someone else

[Eztli92]

what album is this or where can i find this song

[TheRattlerProduction]

@Eztli92 lol Adore Demos.

[AKgunplay]

i miss the hair

[UmbrellaWatch]

yeah i know it was maybe i did need you around.. :) it was for sure... A!

[whothq18]

i really love this song

[JuggaloHjort99]

this version is so much better than the other one

[darekek]

His hands looks so old

[yocorrocontrajeras]

@darekek hands and neck age the fastest

[ChevysR4queers]

look, it's alien nation!

[Psycobillyfreakot]

My god Noussen ,i do believe i love you ...i need you around O3O lol your music videos are F'n Amazing this one expeshily ( pardon my spelling)

[CharlieM7]

His monstrous hands have attacked Tokyo many times.

[abejaasesina]

the smashing pumpkins are the best band ever. so timeless

[willmferg]

love this sound :D

[technoisgay]

the smashing pumpkins are always rad, but nobody can top the smoking popes.

[SamAndrew27]

Hey Noussen, where are you finding these songs? I'm a HUGE Sp fan and I've never heard them...

[billybush132]

he's got old man hands

[imdshiznit]

@billybush132 haha yeah it looks that way but he actually has a skin disorder on his left hand and up his arm.he never really talked about it though. it was just whatever.

[ishe1kk]

@imdshiznit are u sure it's not just an effect for the picture? I'm just guessing but it looks that way haha

[OllieT111]

had my faith, had my band, had my love had no hand in watching...it all fall apart...

[aliceladylike]

sweet 17 sour 29...

[gish5282]

blissed and gone...the melody is 17, the last song in Adore....

[forki84]

Good song!!!

[sng1977]

He's not old he just wise

[zerofitas]

i need you

[willmferg]

he needs a humongous left hand in order to choke the hell out of the guitar

[starlastarlove]

he's beautiful and will be beautiful beyond forever.

[colealton]

I love music you can relate too theirs nothing better

[BODShadowcaller]

@mbCASISmb he is 42 now you know .... ppl arent young forever

[mbCASISmb]

Wtf is up with his hands?

[marcofan69]

@mbCASISmb hes half grandpa

[gyang333]

@mbCASISmb i think it's just the angle of the camera? i'm pretty sure his hands are the same size (unlike Tom Petty's left hand which is bloated from that time he broke it by punching a wall), and if you're referring to the redness, he has a portwine stain that runs down his entire left arm and hand.

[rawtoast]

@gyang333 It's not his entire hand, though. It looks more like someone used digital manip to try to even out the color of the PWS over his hand and the result is this.

[thetheRedundant]

Oh so beautiful...if this version was Blessed and Gone was released as a single off Adore it would have been a hit

[MrGuiguilembrouille]

Cette chanson est tellement belle !!!!

[footcrusher]

someday i hope the true smashing pumpkins reunite..........cool song!!!

[Thor13332]

Great song. Thanks so much for uploading it.

[venuswatersong]

this song makes me cry

[Izekial56]

My favorite Adore-era demo.

Thanks for uploading all these old school Pumpkin demos. :)

[crissc993]

his hands look huge in that picture and its an awesome song

[x50ftQueenie]

One of my favourite Pumpkins songs! Can't stop listening to it! :)

[Whir25]

My dear beautiful Pumpkins.

[tankliness]

well maybe it wasnt a mistake cuz it let me think of lots and now im back together thanks billie and they shoulda kept there music like this its when they were the best in the world

[tankliness]

it was an accident to listen to this song now cuz i just broke up and now i cant stop thinking

[canickynac]

thats actually a birthmark on Billy's hand, not "grandad hands" lol

[Stumbleine689]

THey should have kept it like this

[darkxslaye]

OMG!!! lov it

[marcps4145]

This song is beautiful.

I've gone to different web sites that have the lyrics to this song, and some say "baby i need you around" instead of "i need you around" is their really any difference ?

[Naxxx]

where are all these songs from???

[saturnslament]

This is an Adore Demo version of Rotten Apples' "Blissed and Gone".

[curlymolly70]

billy with the granddad hands ")

[BoBDFWM]

LOL i was looking at that too XD

[gatoreloaded]

"Maybe I need you around"

:(

[tapkid02]

love this song

[twiston123]

cute pic

[longbeachdirtbag]

man billy is fucking awsome so talented!

[motherbrain86]

tjhis was a band that i feel right from the get go just recorded and recorded and etc and there is so much from them that the public does not know

most of it if not all of it in my opinion was amazing even zeigeist is mindblowingly perfect

[tjoh2009]

prolly one of my hidden favorites

[Floskeknosk]

Ha ha, how confused people were upon the Adore release back in 1998 since everyone who heard "I Need You/17" live before the release of the album supposed that it was giong to be on Adore. Supposedly many people were returning their copies of Adore as they thought they were damaged when first hearing a "defect" version on the song (only 17 seconds long), now titled "17". Although the final studio version only made it a couple of years later on the "Still Becoming Apart" EP.

[zeldafreak79]

Better rename the title as well awesome song btw. (Blissed and Gone)

[lidds123]

what a complete twat and what kind of music do you listen to then

[pagoda112]

you know you can say all the shit you want. we all (SP fans) will kick your ass because you know shit.

[CharlotteDavey]

So what type of music do you listen to?

Go on, Enlighten me?

[intothewild1993]

The vocal melody of this song is played on the piano as the song "17" on the "Adore" record.

[dalecampbl5]

this songs is OOOKKK...not their greatest work...they sure have a ton of b-sides lying around

[god090]

amazing song ;)

[pissant75]

..its kinda hard at times to kip track with the pumpkins and their songs, but in a great way it kips the find intresting,,for example this song is just one of those songs that will mislead to believe that its a new song...or is it???( blissed & gone)

[smashingintoyou]

I was on my way to work... with just a few to watch a video, I came to your channel. You make me happy. I maybe about 200 of the views of this video, this song. sometimes I cry sometimes I smile. anyway I am a baby nowadays, but you are very special Noussen Your channel might just be what keeps me sane... well KiNDa. Ha hA. Anyways Thank you and see you my good friend!

[paintyourteeth]

they remind me of the early 90's

[Franckfromjapan]

Blissed and Gone, ye.

[MaskOfTruth]

This song is more commonly known as Blissed and Gone rather than I Need You Around

[cschurawel7]

This guys got a haunting voice.

[blindbaby96]

What cd is this from??? Is this like a b-side???

[intothewild1993]

[hardhittn63]

one hand is bigger than the other. The song is ok

[jackwhitefanatic]

whats the hand comment mean..? nevermind.. don't wanna know

[hardhittn63]

what do you think it means?

[jackwhitefanatic]

first i thought you meant something having to do with playing guitar and reaching the strings... then i realized your comment was spammed with a few thumbs down.. so i figured it was nasty

[hardhittn63]

wow i didn't even consider that

[bato1985]

he has an ill, Klippel Trenaunay syndrome

[nehemiah03]

I love that I can find versions of Pumpkins songs I've never heard before online. I thought I'd heard them all. This is so beautiful, too.

Plus that picture is quite nice. :)

[BillyTheJane]

this song is so touching, thanks for that guys

[horseklopp]

[mrmarks65]

My favorite version is the live one where Billy is alone, don't remember where the show was. A great great song!

[joof60]

Nope. I like this too :p

[Acegalaxi]

I definitely like Blissed and Gone from Judas O better than this - that version chills me. But thanks for this post - puts a new spin on the song.

[mishmo]

ohh i havent heard this:)

[Noussen]

I'm looking around some websites for what songs exist. I'll send you a link.

[Noussen]

[horseklopp]
