Smashing Pumpkins - Best Moments (Part 2)

[@graces7718]

"I want to dedicate this song to all the assholes across America because without them we'd have nothing to complain about"

[@blason56]

Billy : here's the last song of the last best band of the world James : electric light orchestra!

[@GreetTheSacredCow]

Your editing skills are so on point, and your archive of footage has to be incredibly vast. I recall the days of scouring Soulseek and Kazaa for any little snippet of the band I could find, and I only ended up with a quarter of this stuff at most. Pre-youtube was a dark time. You've done us Pumpkins fans a great service with these uploads. You win the fucking internet.

[@DT24K]

GreetTheSacredCow yeah before the days of KZbin it was a friggin’ long ass drawn out hunt for whatever show you may be looking for. Not only that but could also get very pricey at times, depending on what it was exactly you were looking for. Yes... for some of you young fans out there of well, not just Pumpkins fans but of any/all other groups out there also... you had to back then thruout those glorious & so sadly missed heydays of the ‘so-called’ grunge/alt rock era espcly from (well...I guess from) 88, 89 thru 97. Yeah, you had to hunt down any/all concerts you wanted to get your hands on and lot of times pay out your b-hole for them. The better the quality, the higher the costs... most of the time anyway! Same went for any of them on video as well... uhmm yeah also video meant on a thing called VHS! Lol

"He's a star-maker, yeah, thats why we signed the contract." - James Had me laughing so hard.

[@danellae.perezschmieloz5958]

And he delivered

[@user-zw7oe4jv3j]

It's kinda weird cause they were really funny, makes you think they wouldn't be dysfunctional

[@matthewmaki]

They were likke a dysfunctional family that makes light of everything in order to hide how messed up it really is

[@Chris_yes]

dont you know that most comedians are compensating for their problems of severe depression or addiction by telling jokes?

[@DamienThornes]

9:53 Kinda weird that Billy would tell Jimmy that his clothes are funny when Jimmy was the less extravagant Pumpkins and Billy would wear dresses.

[@alexmalch]

what’s the problem with wearing dresses

[@keithhumanPH]

Their so funny with the therapist scene hahahaha

[@pitchnovigot8020]

i agree bro

[@RingoLoadagain]

I love those old Vieuphoria clips! So nostalgic. I must have watched that tape a million times, then more when it came out on DVD!

[@johnnyboy756O]

nah, i just started listening to them more recently, their amazing, their great! and Iha is fucking amazing at guitar

[@martynpiggottmusic4993]

Pumpkins to this day still don't get enough credit for how funny they are x

[@wheredemfreax]

8:20 ... the moment you really realize that you made it and your art is bigger than you can ever be. Awesome! I'd crack too...

[@domtwaites3436]

Best band ever

[@FLaiR791]

It's funny. That therapist actually directed the music videos for Siva and Rhinoceros.

[@danellae.perezschmieloz5958]

We love your voice Billy, don't worry

[@DendyJungle]

james iha is so funny but he never actually smiles. very dry delivery

[@Chris_yes]

black adder

[@kymberlishea2036]

When it's the shots of Billy and James on that couch and Billy in the black shirt. 🤗Omg he's so fucking hot. Forever a Fan 🤘❤️

[@mikeet207]

Darcy always thought Billy was a dork.

[@EXPShareStreams]

God they were such dorks

[@ObscuredJellybelly]

I know most of these moments, but it's fun to watch them as one big compilation!

[@nebuluos2032]

subscribed after witnessing the band therapy sessions..nice..really nice.

[@jellybIood]

i fucking love james iha lmao 21:38

[@lightofday.dayofdarkness]

"Electric Light Orchestra!"

[@chrisothoulos]

They used to have so much fun at shows

[@Chris_yes]

That must be a great fucking feeling, to look out on a sea of people, and have them sing your lyrics or say your words before you even say them, because they love them so much. I can see how that can lead to bad behaviour.

[@thejuliajune]

Thanks for this. These are great for any SP fan!

[@kymberlishea2036]

24:16. God I love that man ❤️

[@BelieberForeveer1]

I fucking love James

[@valeriatquevedo]

19:44 HHAHAHAHAHAH JAMES IS FUNNY FR

[@FLaiR791]

Sure thing, glad you enjoyed them.

[@SWbro94]

those therapy scenes were fucking great

[@neverever3922]

man Billy wore that superman shirt a whole lot

[@mikeet207]

9:50......"he's a duck!"

[@patkawasaki]

I wonder did the therapist ever recover from her session with the band? I think she hit the bottle pretty hard after that day.

[@fashionofthechrist]

0:59 WPC prepping for his announcer gig after the purchase of the NWA.

[@TheSiameseDreamer]

23:15 is epic

[@danellae.perezschmieloz5958]

Did the guy at 20:49 survive? Lol

[@TheWonderfulBlake]

I knowJames and D’Arcy didn’t really contribute a whole lot to studio sessions (they clearly had an impact on the the earlier records sometimes, but let’s be honest, it’s mostly Billy), James and D’Arcy are still incredible musicians to be able to play live shows up to Billy’s standards. I would kill to be as talented as them, let alone as talented as Billy or Jimmy.

[@jeahhh]

so sweet! thank you!

[@US395Official]

I love this

[@patkawasaki]

17:10 was pretty cool.

[@Jonnydc93]

The search for the yeti

[@RandyRhoadsRules3]

Who were all those people they were thanking around the 22nd to 23rd minute and what for? I know who Axl and Slash are obviously lol. I didn't know they knew GNR. Very different bands musically although Corgan has a lot of similarities with Axl doesn't he lol James Iha is really funny haha.

[@Charlyyarelable]

no

[@FLaiR791]

I finished making it, but I'm facing some copyright issues right now. So I have to re-edit my video. Hopefully tomorrow it should be up.

[@valeriatquevedo]

3:34 we all love james

[@martinas32]

Thanks man. Really love these videos.

[@Hulkamaniac418]

Yes he was. But not anymore. ;)

[@jellybIood]

come on kids lets rock

[@averagebusinessmen2]

2:25 always makes me fall out of my chair laughing

[@Tallcansintheair]

20:02 LMFAO!

[@chibblywubbly]

4:27 he came up with Surrogates way back in the mid 90's lol.

[@IAnotherRockMusicFan]

*laughing* XD @ therapy session at 9:30.

[@MUZZYMANN500]

Haha they're fucking round with the therapist

[@jamola1096]

hahaha billy's just high and rambling on about robots

[@rly7568]

9:10 OMFG JAMES

[@ObscuredJellybelly]

No man, it was just a joke. The whole Today video is one big joke. Didn't you know that Billy and James used to perform in dresses sometimes back in the Gish days?

[@averagejoereviews1293]

take it you don't like them?

[@thamaranjos]

I thank for the amazing videos but... Where's the part 3?

[@dummytree]

Interesting! Does it look the same now?

[@cerisskies]

Where can I see all of the therapy thing?

[@FLaiR791]

Sweet.

[@shplog2]

One of the most awkward moments was watching SP in therapy as a 13 year old literally worshiping Siamese Dream. Still fucking strange. Too many questions. The most apparent is WHY?

[@user-ub8vx8zd1d]

it was a joke my good man

[@shplog2]

The Pumpkins weren't the best actors. Except Iha. They were all very honest. JC was about to cry, D'arcy was overly concerned and Billy summed up the band with an analogy that makes perfect sense. Anyway, they were incredibly productive.

[@user-ub8vx8zd1d]

Ryanem Yeah. I would have to agree with that.

[@explodingnightmareproducti5612]

Some Kind Of Pumpkin

[@kerizanderson]

what was the whole therapy session about?

[@dragonno6587]

about shoes and long hair

[@US395Official]

+Real Strat true

[@ericlipe]

I started laughing so hard when James talked about the shoes

[@ZJustinZ9]

Rock and roool HEY!

[@leroystanks]

It's from Vieuphoria.

[@andreascapt4903]

Are they on LSD? Jimmy sounds pretty confused...

[@FLaiR791]

Yeah, he was never gay, he actually dated D'arcy for a few years.

[@blviking56]

What's the song at 7:06

[@Mannimations]

Godzilla by the Blue Oyster Cult, I like the Smashing Pumpkins cover better, however.

[@GreetTheSacredCow]

Mannimations It sounded like the Offspring before the Offspring. I wonder if the Offspring ripped off that riff, or if I'm just tripping.

[@Industrialistt]

Hell yeah @6:16

[@ednocondriaco]

Esta geniaaaaal!!!

[@vicious2014]

nice

[@jcarterize]

where were they playing there?

[@Hulkamaniac418]

I was just kidding. You asked if he "was" gay, like there's a possibility that he isn't anymore, like it goes away or something. ;)

[@BearWindAppleyard]

Billy is really lame at the end, lol

[@sadiesleepwalker646]

19.05 - 😐

[@johnnyboy756O]

Why was James Iha wearin a dress in that one music vid? was he gay?

[@TheGawd100]

Was the therapy session real?

[@JohnSmith-rg8gv]

But of course, James always had a problem with footwear.

[@cyberpunkholiday]

No. It was off the DVD Viewphoria I believe and it was for fun.

[@starlodear2987]

+Josh Mcgowan The therapist didn't know she was being played.

[@Twigs1201]

haha the random Simpsons clip

[@johnnyboy756O]

Oh wow! *fp -___- lol

[@IAnotherRockMusicFan]

@ 4:10 >)

[@nomad1713]

What's the song at 7:00

[@corgan59]

Nirvana smell like Teen Spirit (i think it was when kurt cobain died, and Billy say "Rock is dead" and play a song of nirvana (the same in acoustic at 22:10. but for the rest lot of are from viewforia :(

[@chrisdaniels7760]

It is not Smells Like Teen Spirit, it is Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult. The footage live was in 1990, and I guess the acoustic was also 1990 because James mentions "our new album coming in 1991" or something like that.
