We only come out at night, The Smashing Pumpkins, harpsichord cover

The Smashing Pumpkins' "We only come out at night" cover, transcribed and performed by myself on an early 20th century harpsichord.

In keeping with the vampiric undertones of the lyrics, I chose to perform my version on a harpsichord, the instrument par excellence of the undead.

I'm sorry that my singing is mediocre. Hopefully you can hear past it and appreciate what I was trying to achieve.

I love what you did with this; you wrote such a beautiful rendition of it for the harpsichord, and the way you played it was absolutely lovely. There is something very romantic about that instrument. :) Thanks for sharing!

You're the coolest kid ever! I love it, and your voice has a very billy corgan thing going on about it, you sang great!

[hymntonight]

@Occidentalis44 Aww, thank you! That was such a sweet comment. Please check out my piano cover of 1979, while you're at it! :)

@hymntonight try having successive images corgan or self related ...or song related, will keep people keep watching... :)

@springflower57 Thank you for the advice. I'm just sorry I don't own a video camera, because people generally prefer watching a video than hearing a recording. The image is a scene from the vampire film Nosferatu, which was a huge influence on Corgan's wardrobe during the "Adore" era; so it's actually relevant in a way. At any rate, thank you so, so much for your kind words!
