The Smashing Pumpkins - The Everlasting Gaze

[firstikatika]

I love the Pumpkins. Though my favorite songs are probably from Mellon Collie, I think my favorite overall album might actually be MACHINA. Great stuff.

[MrHasimir]

i just love way that billy waves with his hair dont u

[TheMrpopo1997]

@MrHasimir

u do realize HES FUCKING BALD

[MrHasimir]

@TheMrpopo1997

kid yeah i realise that...thats the point of that joke.....sheesh

[nahbruhnah5]

@MrHasimir lol forreal

[mrcommador]

my parents say he's not really singing and this isn't music thats the first i threatened to taze my parents

[edbaron95]

billy corgan is the weirdest, creepiest looking dude on planet earth....and he is one of my biggest idols

[viaggionuovo2010]

This one of my favorites videos from the smashing pumpkins....

[nicholsjoshua15]

I have figured out why Machina: The Machines Of God, was considered a bad album. This album came out in 2000, and by then the critics were not interested in good music any more. Rap, Hip-Hop, Pop, Pop Punk, and Emo Rock were the big thing, and good music was a thing of the past. Smashing Pumpkins fans can be jerks, and since this album didn't sound like Siamese Dreams, or Melancholy And The Infinite Sadness they considered it to be a bad album by most of them. Long Live The Smashing Pumpkins.

@boywithcamera7

Thanks for naming one good band..

[David34343]

Are there other bands like this. Different

[nicholsjoshua15]

@David34343 Poets Of The Fall, god bless you and have a good one.

[adelis1985]

Smashing Pumpkins is just great. However Smashing Guitars and Drum Set is not so good to me.

[Sonnymaestrini]

G R E A .........T

[NescioQuidErgoDeus]

I can't think of one band like The Smashing Pumpkins. They're a unique mix of shoegaze, goth, classic rock, metal, and a few other styles.

[Matarugi]

Go look up Disarm and Zero by the pumpkins.

[ForgottenSoul700]

Their music doesn't suck; it's just not your preference and it gets any new band's ass. But I agree that Billy is trying to hard to be different and artsy.

[NescioQuidErgoDeus]

What's wrong with different and artsy?

Why do some people think that's a bad thing?

...Or are you just saying that he's a bit pretentious?

[Bifftannen26]

I love when they smash all their instruments at the end

[Gamer123SIMZ]

no darcy D; i cant believe she split and whats his face was addicted to drugs

[Spoonular]

whats his face was jimmy chamberlin

[Gamer123SIMZ]

oh not the hott asian dude

[JDBFool]

D'arcys an amazing bassist and was rediculously hot. Didnt Iha have a drug issue as well? He always looks like hes on heroin at least lol.

[pointlessvidz13]

billy corgan is the weirdest mother fucker ever. thats what makes him awesome.

[RedPyramidSH]

Machina's a great album and everything, and I loved what the pumpkins used to be but from the videos from this era you get the impression that started pandering to goths and artsy folks (especially try,try,try's video). It is a shame because up to that point the pumpkins were completely about making their own image and saying F you to anyone that didn't like it. It's what they're missing today I guess.

[fubsie2]

Heh heh, pause at 3:54. It looks like Billy's doing some sort of finishing move from a fighting game or something...

[wowurnotgood]

Why does every heavy rock song in drop C remind me of System of a Down?

[LucianAlexiel]

Actually it should be the other way around, System of a Down should remind you of The Smashing Pumpkins in this case.

[vivahate100]

true story...I met jimmy chamberline and got talking about tattoos, i jokingly said mine were better than his (wrist ones), to which he then informed me his were only to hide his heroine scars.

I felt a bit of a tit.

[chanellel001]

That my dear, is just straight up hilarious...

[dunefall]

I'm sceptical; either way it is a good story.

[vivahate100]

I could show you the photo of me and him when we met if you want :)

[dunefall]

LOL! I enjoy your confrontational approach. Nah....that won't be necessary. I found the story enjoyable enough

[aliencloak]

Excuse me, but that WILL be necessary.

[dunefall]

I don't know. Is validation really that important? The story appeared enjoyable enough. Comedic and morose. I could go as far to say that it is a social commentary about a sub-culture. But, if it bugs you that much. I'm sure vivahate100 could entertain you.

[alsatiancousin1]

Haha thats almost funny. What are his tattoos of?

[disclaimer05]

That guitar riff keeps me addicted O.O

[shponglerox]

during the vocal break, Billy kinda looks like Marilyn Manson during the Mechanical Animals era

[MCALL99]

who cares about matilyn manson,billy corgan is a real musician,not just a symbol,he is both.

He's great.

[vinnykster]

This song is BAD .. ASS!!

[pimpsmack00kjw]

Billy is so awesome

[TheFake33]

that thing falling down from the ceiling at the end is so funny

[chavezmoore]

it sucks that the drummers dead

[Grandmapappy69]

Jimmy aint dead.

[nate247420]

he's NOT Dead and you know he's not YOU it was just a clogged thing in his heart

[InstantClassicCJ91]

Jimmy didn't die... but he did overdose towards the end of the Mellon Collie tour with their former keyboardist Johnathan Melvoin. Melvoin died, but Jimmy survived and was kicked out of the band. Billy opted to continue the tour without him and to this day still says it's one of the worst decisions he's ever made.

[virusinsideus]

he did come back in the end tho

[lastflightof79]

LMAO What are you talking about?

[mallqueen3654]

i love the drum in the beggining i love this song it took me a couple of times to fully grasp it

[Jesustheanti]

You know what would be interesting... if a band had a "sword fight" with the instruments... instead of smashing them on the gorund smash them on each other (and potentally hurt yourself but oh well)

[RejectsLover658]

Haha, to me that sounds like something Nirvana would've done. xD

[Moooo464]

thats something nirvana did do, you can see it in some of there videos lol

[ChibiMonnie13]

lol bald guys usual creep me out, but Billy pulls it off nicely.

[shponglerox]

Billy looks like a psycho during the vocal break

[ScarTiissue]

smashy smash smash smash smash!!

[liltrooper97]

F*ck tarantula cause it sucks compared to ther stuff from the 90's (early) and darcy is trash but awsome bass wish they were still together and he NEEDS HAIR!!! lots of it like he use too thank, you.

[wurlybird9]

I don't think the hair is necessary but I'm partial to their earlier work. I just don't like the way this stuff was mixed. Sounds too harsh. Like my speakers are going to pop, in a bad way.

[RachelRomance]

everytime i see this video, i just want d'arcy to like "pop up" in place of melissa, and claim her 'rightful' spot,

but she doesnt.

[GeneralWade1]

D'arcy was a goddess and

melissa was french which sucks

[deargtiogar]

She's Canadian, asshole. Get your facts right.

[GeneralWade1]

candian french?

[MaicolAlbeiro]

...yeah, it's a possibility...

[GeneralWade1]

i love canadian girls

[dutchlove33]

so angry!!!!!!

[thenextfrusciante]

My second favorite Pumpkins song to Tonight Tonight, this is such a good song.

[redflag2]

i miss billys old looks from the early 90's

[SlicedAndDiced]

Billy Corgan in all his bald headed glory. He is so in love with himself and a good self performer too. (sry for my bad english) Guess thats why the video has nothing to do with the song. Still a fuckin´great song. :)

[hazeleyez1114]

it seems to escape ppl that the vieos for these songs mean nothing.. whereas the songs mean everything.. why comment the vids when you can comment the songs?

[myfriendsareyourstoo]

well..im sorry for being human. (no im not trying to be smart)i dont know or like the band, i just know James' is in it.

[myfriendsareyourstoo]

they're coming back though. James plays Keyboard for this UK band called THE SOUNDS. (they've previously played @ Bam & Missy Margera';s wedding.) the pumpkin's new Cd "ZEITGEIST" will be out 7-7-07... go get it!!!!

[rossdoherty83]

"The Sounds" are Swedish.

[soemoithurts1337]

was james there? who was on bass and drums?

[totaro]

James was always in the band until it broke up in 2000. You see Melissa Auf Der Mar on bass in the video (she played for the final tour) and Jimmy on drums.

[dutchlove33]

didn't he get kicked out and thrown in jail before "adore?" if i remember right, it was a pretty big deal, "machina" being his comeback with the pumpkins. wait...nevermind... that was jimmy, right?

[falafel1010]

it was jimmy and he wasnt around for the adore tour or album. him and the keyboardist john melvoin during MCIS over dosed on heroin and john ended up dead. so they booted him for the time.

[julia376]

@totaro They broke up?

[BrunoLeRoux]

How the fuck this innovative, amazing slice of heavy rock has got just 11 comments is beyond shameful. Yet relative dross like BWBW which, aside from Jimmy's always amazing drumming, sounds like childish emo in comparison yet all SP fans seem to have an orgasm over it. The mind boggles.

This is way better. The structure and atmosphere are eerie and enigmatic - the stuff that typifies SP.

[Joshqu]

i didn't even know there was a vid for this til now.YAY!

[DrakeandGabe]

I love the sound of this song. <3 Pumpkins.

[MomSaysImCool]

Not bad... but not the best.

[RejectsLover658]

I like the songs I've heard off the Machines of God album. Smashing Pumpkins are definitely my favorite band of the 90's.

[totaro]

<3 Machina also.

Very heavy sound but also has a very dreamy overtone.

[charliecorgan]

Ok sounds great, but how can Billy play with gloves ?

[soemoithurts1337]

i know this girl that has to play with gloves cuz it burns her fingers.

[Sorsatis]

You know alot of pumpkins fans actually hate the machines of god album, since the band broke up soon after. Personally I like it

[RejectsLover658]

I think people are just pissed that D'arcy was gone.

[GalacticMatter]

i know i am

[haydzbabe]

The finals years of Pumpkins are so underrated. Their last couple of albums are the best I think. Love this song.

[TopherTheGroper]

quite possibly one of the best bands since...ever...

[elpayasojoker]

woow!! i love it!

[kkerbabian]

one of the best sp songs ever!!! love the riffs.
