Smashing Pumpkins - Lily (My One and Only)

[ScrewMainstream69]

Unrequited love sucks.

[mdbilledeaux]

I <3 the Smashing Pumpkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[urikasebastian]

yeah i think its about stalking a girl for sure, but he just makes it seem so sweet..

and how could a cat 'shed a moon'? he's obviously watching her undress or something. which now that i think about it is kinda creepy. lawl corgan.

[Losingcharm]

@urikasebastian It's about his cat, he said so.

[urikasebastian]

@Losingcharm did he? thats funny. <3

[wash2007]

@urikasebastian it's "i watch her shadow move.' what the hell would 'shed a moon" even mean? there are lyrics on the album, you know.

[urikasebastian]

@wash2007 excuse me. im sure you've never misenterpreted lyrics before in your life. And it wouldnt have been the first time his lyrics were random.

[1Eu4ic]

Billy looks gangster. Literally.

[SimlySpecial]

Why is Billy wearing pyjamas?

[cgnetwork1]

@SimlySpecial Who gives a shit he's Billy Corgan.

[nicholsjoshua15]

Billy Corgan is the one who wrote this song although Jimmy, James, and Darcy played the music for this in studio. Billy Corgan (vocals piano), Jimmy Chamberlain (drums and percussion) James Iha (lead guitar) Darcy Wretzky (backing vocals, base guitar, and violin).

[nicholsjoshua15]

It's about stalking a girl, the lyrics fit too good t with that theme when was the last time your cat had "an officer knocking your door"

[lamontofnazareth]

@nicholsjoshua15 It's about his cat...

[johnleclerc88]

mozart maybe

[johnleclerc88]

video dude had to do a line or what? hahhaa

[hiyouknowme22]

I thought it was about some guy stalking a woman he's obsessed with ?

[Pandapple1995]

LMAO!! This song is about his cat! That's so sweet~ I thought it was about a girl Billy liked when he was younger or something. I love SP!

[rblasco1970]

@Pandapple1995 - No, LOL. At the end of the song he says, I know you love me because as they're dragging me away, I swear I see her raise her hand and wave. . . good bye. . .

I always thought this was such a great, cute song, and then the first time I *really* heard the lyrics I nearly crashed the car.

[caroletho]

did you collapse? lol

[xHadaVerdex]

is he wearing pijamas?? love him!!

[BeckyPantz]

Billy is so cute .. I love him! He's so real and comforting. I love the old Smashing Pumpkins

[BUZZUBUZZU]

pijama

[Spoonular]

it's about his cat..

[xpoogiexlandiax]

Jimmy looks bored haha! I LOVE this song!♥

[professorfoxtrot]

he wasn''t bored he was phasing out on heroin.... oh snap I'm a comedian.

[xjinxrohx]

is he wearing pajamas?

[Quitafernanda]

I think it's very sweet that this song is for his cat....pets can be wonderful and they give us a lot of love unconditional...reminds me the song "Delilah" of Freddy Mercury, for his female cat too...

[jared81799]

Lily was his first wife

[orangecrushaa]

more of a stalker

[limwell15jana]

patulog na yata si billy dito kase hinde na nya makanta ng ma ayos si lily

[empathogen75]

i was there!

[Spiralminds]

I would pay loads for that... btw it was on my anniversay.. :E

[LilySnoopy1]

i typed in this because i have a dog named lily

[bazael182]

I wasn't there!

Damn.

[sattski]

hreat drum beat on this.

[freddy4016]

This song is amazing, and is relly cute too, because is about his female cat Lily. MEOWW

[agoober579]

If its about HIS cat, why is the song credited to D'arcy/James iha/Jimmy Chamberlin and not Billy?

[PunchDLove]

The song is about his fucking cat..

[starlie13]

his fucking cat

jajajajajajaj

lol!

[slytown]

It's actually about a serial killer I think.

[mudhoneytrm]

where the hell did you read that? i think someones taking the piss. The liner notes on mellon collie say all songs written by billy corgan except "take me down" (iha) and "farewell and goodnight" (corgan & iha)

[agoober579]

when i loaded the CD into iTunes, "D'arcy/James Iha/Jimmy Chamberlin" is what showed up under composer. That's all i'm sayin brotha.

[clabonkid]

the others must have written their parts. though chamberlains "dum, dum, dum-dum, dum." will hardly of got lots of royalties.

[osterley]

I love this song so much...think talks about a stalker pederast though...but in love anyway...

[rabgiamadeus]

their best live song!!!go pumpkins,i hope you play in belgrade!

[hsgonzalez77]

The most romantic rock band in the world!!!!

[heiyauyau]

waw ..... what a wonderful song ~

Any one can send this original song to me ? Thx

[lilybloomway]

aww i loved is my song!

my name is lily

i loveyou billy..

xoxo

:)

[rushkagon]

If there was one band i could take into my nuclear bunker. They would be it. In fact anything Billy or Jimmy did. those two are the most amazing hardworking dudes ever!

[omarqure]

@rushkagon hmmm I was a big pumpkinfan back in the day and there was always some strange fascination about James Iha but honestly looking back now it seems unfair to compare them as equals, Billy is/was in a entirely different league.

[marlenexseven]

Oh Billy

my one and only !

I LOVE billy! <333

[SunshinesRayzinUp]

@marlenexseven You are so cute and Sweet. A d No, I'm not Billy! lol :)

[SPgirl2812]

nice pyjama =)

[rulec72]

its amazing how bc can take such a musically simple song and make it so amazing...one of my pumpkins favorites...

[Spiralminds]

too much

[dannyandhisbass]

this is one of the best pumpkins songs ever

[diniztmfan]

they have so many... it´s a hard task choose one;)

[dylanlovesspiderpig]

HAHA! i love how he says HEEEEEEEEEEEEARRRTT

[dylanlovesspiderpig]

i always think of The Ocarina of time or Majaras mask everytime I hear this....I wonder why?

[beoslasher]

Lost their passion after mellon collie? No way, have you heard adore or the machinas'? Crestfallen, wound, innocence, these songs have more passion than a lot of today's bands songs ever will. The Pumpkins have evolved over time as we do, ever changing, so of course their sounds changed with them. Billy is a revolutionary, think about it, where would Eric Clapton, David Bowie, just to name a few be without evolving?

[GothamsDarkness]

Thats really nice to hear about the pumpkins..an your right...ppl cant handle "change" once they become use ot something. Music is love

[RemusAredelc]

i agree. people usually doesnt accept changes that's why... mozart made fresh music and changes but neglected, and now he is one of the greatest composers

[mkenne14]

eric clapton???

come on mate, get a grip!

"I know I'm.. cool?"

[MiGP1981]

[mustxgetxout]

[melloncollie33]

when i hear this song, it reminds me of someone sitting on a bench at a park waiting for time to go by,lol, but good song

[pagoda112]

hahah your right it does

[imacrazydude9999999]

what drug incident?

[thenextfrusciante]

When Jimmy and the keyboardist overdosed on heroin, Jimmy survived but the keyboardist died, Jimmy was then fired. The Pumpkins were never as popular again...

[lastflightof79]

Damn think of how different things would have been if that never happened...

[launoteama23]

naive! I love this masterpiece! reminds me when i fell in love with this girl named...

Deliciosa!

[saganhart]

I love this so much. It's so beautiful.

[pagoda112]

[marktwainredux]

He probably said "I know, I´m Billy" when someone from the audience warned him that he was in his pj´s during a concert...LOL

[jurtel]
