is james on guitar in this? seriously though the original band should set aside their differences for just one more world tour! that would be a dream come true for me
this song is all about the grungy sound but around the time corgan shaved his head their old grungy sound dissapeared. The new SP album shows this. The real Smashing Pumpkins is gone.
This was an excellent rendition of this song. Billy's voice was sharp and crisp. I love the Pumpkins. By the way... why all the talk about Green Day? Should they even be mentioned in the same breath as the Pumpkins? Why not save that conversation for a second tier band?
i have grown u whith the pumpkins and i just can say that they are part of my life. i really like them. and of course green day has nothing to do with the smashing pumpkins. the difference between them are so huge that i think it´s absurd try to compare those two bands
Thank u, Bato. I love Green Day and The Smashing Pumpkins to death, and, well, both bands are amazing and Epic, and, personally, both are not meant to be compared. Music is for loving, not hating. Frankly, i dislike both bands a bit, like Green Day's first couple of albums, i didn't like them much, but American Idiot was amazing, and so will 21st Century Breakdown. SP was great untill they broke up; they aren;t that great anymore. enyhow, let's all relax and appreciate music the way it is.
you got the right idea for the pumpkins, and green days old stuff was a different type of music than their modern stuff. If the pumpkins could still have the original line up, I would love them so much more.
yeah too bad green days not an amo band. when was the last time you heared billy joe armstrong say "cut my wrist and black my eyes"? hmmm? SP and GD are both great bands, GD is just way too over played. If your brains were just filtered of green day just a little bit youd get it.
are you kidding me ...lol green day..its not EVEN close gree gay's for emo fags but id say that if youre a fag its just the kind of music you gotta love, so go listen to ur pop-emo shit while im listening to a legendary band
dietsoda how bout you stfu green day is so overated they not in close to league tht the pumpkins are in. neone else agree? cause last time i checked green day did at least 4 chord songs and they cant do nething other then punk so plz shut up and enjoy

The Smashing Pumpkins are not real music. Seriously, Green Day is way deeper and more original. This song is not worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as Holiday. By the way, ledhendrix54, the note at 3:28 is gay.
All eras, were the best era....Remember Corgan single handedly wrote Siamese dream. Played bass, designed the lead parts, everything. Jimmy of course was the only other contributor...Look up the writing credits or on wikipedia.
Attention SP and Mayonaise fans, there used to be a wicked live video of "Mayonaise" from SD era show on YouTube. It was filmed by a fan and it featured Billy staring directly into the camera at one point. The performance was absolutely smoking; IMO the best I've ever heard/seen. And it's now gone! Anyone know where it went, or what happened to the user who posted it? Any info is much appreciated.
Yeah, This vid was amazing! I remember reading the comments someone said it was from '93 or '94 and maybe Barcelona? I have been trying desperately to track this vid down again but no success? Does anyone else no where it can be found?!
who knew when darth vader took off his mask he had such... a shitty voice. I love old pumpkins but damn billy, you really can't sing to great. That being said i really liked this live verision, even though billies garb leads to endless jokes. maybe morso because of it.
shity voice??!! wtf, think ur perception of shitty voice is warped. his voice is fitting to the style of music and doesn't have to be clear cut and crisp to be classed as ok.man if all musicians didn't have a shitty voice it would really boring indeed.there is a reason why they are so popular 'shhitty voice' or not.
Got to see them in Osaka, Japan around 2004. Small club, conversations with Billy between songs and a friend was invited to sing with Billy while covering "Behind the Wheel" by Depeche Mode after hearing we drove 5 hours and flew half way around the world to see them. One show never to be forgotten.
jesus christ man, everytime I get away from listening to the pumpkins I come back watch this video and fall in love with this band all over again. Beautiful.
same with me, sometimes I feel good when i stop listening for a while. It's like an adiction that i beat, like a cigarette. One puff after a while and you are hooked, thats how i am with this band, it's odd. but they are awsome, and i'll always love them.
You know, it was Billy Corgan that recommended Melissa Auf De Maur to Courtney love as a replacement bassist for Kristen Pfaff who Od'ed and died.
Some say that Courteny Love had something to do with Kristen Pfaff's death.
Anyway, MADM initially declined (probably because CL is a evil bitch IMO). Billy met MADM when she apologized for a friend that threw a beer bottle at a SP concert in Canada.
if billy didn't sing quicker on certain parts, this live rendition could be the best. his voice is awesome here! the solo owns and the refrain is beautiful
Sad, that none of the pumpkins survived to be smashed by its own hit.
I miss them and their ways to make songs toghether, i mean Billy makes still songs, hes gone to the darkest part of him, but there was so much light, as they where together.
awesome, but i found that later in their existence, billy doesn't sing properly anymore when they are live. He should still try to sing the soft parts of songs properly
Its truly sad that such a great band as the Pumpkins has dirt like this enjoying their music. I dont think Billy or the Pumpkins could stand knowing racist, angry, sad people like you call themselves a "fan".
OMG, this is the first time I've ever seen this song live (except for the Vieuphoria version)! I have been in love with this song for years! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I still don't understand why people compare
things so much. Who cares I mean who are
you trying to impress there is no best in

thats all that matters.
