Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 (Acoustic) on XPN Radio

[@ImmuneToKnives]

This song is golden. Everyone has memories with this song. Memories never to be forgotten.

[@DivineBallski]

i wanna remember this song for a long time

[@icanhazplatinum]

Great song, good times, awesome band

[@billylick1984]

wonderful acoustic version. love the raw music...its the way it should be played

[@fuego96]

Diggin' the lyrics even more as time passes.

[@TomSawyerLost]

@nikolak29 same for 90% of pumpkins' fans, in fact these aren't the smashing pumpking, just a silly cover band

[@amartsa]

I like to imagine Billy on top of a cloud, dark blue ligthing, raising his hands as a shaman would do, blessing all humanity with his music and wisdom

[@sunstar1777]

real, love it!!!

[@otakuramx]

I love this version!!! :D

[@chiaral1786]

school ages, strange ages, they sounded like this. We miss some different things.

[@jesusjuarez7619]

Banda perrona##### 1

[@TheJeremiahD]

@lpazos Even though they did tour under a different name last year, this is Smashing Pumpkins. i think the drummer is 19 or 20.

[@PFTome]

I think it's fair to say that Corgan is the Pumkins. He has always been the primary songwriter, at least that's what all my old CD say on them. Don't get me wrong I miss the old lineup too but ... it's fair to say. Read the second paragraph on Wiki.

[@ThaJayMan11]

Great finally a good acoustic version of this song, loving it... Check landslide by pumpkins for another great song ;p

[@sebastian_ghoxt]

Billy is the best

[@Ryanrobot99]

@nikolak29 I kinda feel Billy is to SP what Trent Reznor is to NIN. I MISS the old members... but I don't get to sad because they were never really the bands main creative outlet.

[@TomSawyerLost]

@bigdude191 Billy Corgan is Billy Corgan

[@sorento6107]

90's kids are super cool

[@evrydae]

I don't know, this is arguably the best performance to 1979.. It's got so much verve

[@ternalator]

@bigdude191 billy is as close to true smashing pumpkins as we can get anymore

[@dustinlawrence]

haha. i love this song. Billy has had better days performing it, or maybe its just really raw.

[@liquidbludd]

@JonnyDayCase Like the original pumpkins was never more than a cover band with Corgan pulling the strings. I mean didn't he record all the instruments for Siamese Dream? It just looks funny you got a 40 year old with like a highschool band.

[@calstevelee]

I love Nicole.

[@AidenForLife]

corgan's still amazing.

[@Haushinka1000Hours]

@nikolak29 it wouldn't matter, it'd be the same now only with a bass player who couldn't actually play the music perfectly

[@uffaize]

+1 if you think Billy Corgan always finds nice bassists ;-)

[@TomSawyerLost]

@TheJeremiahD there's just billy and no one else from the pumpkins, how can you say that they're REALLY the smashing pumpkins? for me and for the real fans this is just a cover band

[@32Manz]

:)

[@davesviciuscobain.6845]

Muy buena Cancion tengo planeado tatuarme ese gran título

[@yocam420]

smashing pumpkins would never be the same without d'arcy and james.

[@blake2456]

F-yeah for Taylor Guitars!

[@lachlanSB]

this is fricken awesome, billy is more hero.

[@EVLGTR]

@nikolak29 You're right, this is painful, i stopped watching this vid after 10 seconds

[@BrunoOCosta]

this song is awesome... this live version could be much better...

[@ceilingsandfloors]

this is one of the dryest sounding recordings ever. Its like they forget to turn their reverb units on

[@MichaelMitchell-nn2ig]

Everybody can sing really, but not everybody actually sounds good :L Billy is however one of those singers who are so bad that it's actually kinda good, if that makes sense :L Besides he's improved since the 90's, and the Pumpkins music would be different without his voice

[@oasisbility]

IMHO,Billy Corgan is as genius as Noel Gallagher

[@ldahui]

None of them seem to be having a good time

[@CORRIGEEN71]

great tune but he cant sing sorry

[@herozero96]

Its his song it was supposed to be sung like that.
