Smashing Pumpkins - Waiting (B-Side)

[@Sincerelyiris]

It's crazy that this song was a B-side! This band has to have had the best B-sides ever. I can't think of a band that compares with the quality of the songs that didn't even make it on a record. They were on such a roll!

[@StarHaven64]

Sincerelyiris Beatles, switchfoot, Pink Floyd, Smashing pumpkins, Beach Boys! All great bands that can do the impossible!!

[@ectoplasma5]

The Cure.But Pumpkins still win in my book.

[@Echohead100]

This song hurts so much to listen to but I absolutely love it. Just calls up images of a girl I'm in love with. I wrote her a letter while listening to this. Billy Corgan really, really knows how to hit a nerve. God bless him. I don't know how I'd exist if it wasn't for him and the Smashing Pumpkins. Their music is the only thing that's kept me from committing suicide.

hope you're doing well bud

[@archivosrockchile]

Big hug for you! 💖⚘

[@mikemora6777]

come on bro! smashing helps all of us to see life with different colors! big hug!

[@priley218]

I hope you’re alive and flourishing , Bro.

[@jaysharpESQ]

Yeah I agree. This song hurts me hard in the heart too... Cept it's about a boy I'm hopelessly in love with. In my premonition it's like a dream though, and this song is the soundtrack to waiting to be recognized. (You know how in dreams sometimes people aren't recognizable, or THEY ARE yet you still can't seem to place where you know them from?). This song always confuses me like a dream and still conjures up those same feelings, though in my waking life. So uncomfortable. I don't know how Billy always does this. He's a remarkable talent. Doesn't get his due even though he has gotten quite a lot already (accolades) If I'm honest, I do hope I'll get mines too.. I've been making good music for so so long now.

[@puttingoffstars]

This is a reminder of the Smashing Pumpkins I miss. Sometimes I wish Billy would let it be; but then again, I haven't been the best with downloading every new track. I may change my mind later, but this is how I will remember them -- heartfelt and genuine, imperfect everything and perfect in so many ways.

[@felipeandre_]

One of my favorites songs by my favorite band ever. So great memories comes in while hearing this gem. Thank you, SP, for make me happy. ❤

[@Echohead100]

Always brings me to tears.

[@leongaultier554]

Beautiful song and revives so much memories..

[@Spiralminds]

This song is legendary.

[@Sutterjack]

Terrific song - terrific lyrics

[@AdolBarish]

Esta canción es tan personal que a veces se me salen las lágrimas…

[@LucasSpurrell]

Yeah it sounds like an adore song. I wasn't sure though. This song is so good.

[@FrancescoLavorata]

Questa canzone è fantastica... una delle mie preferite.

[@AmandaLaggan]

Forgot that I haven't listened to this in so long.

[@lobbyboi4719]

This wouldve had a perfect placement on Adore

[@magnussio]

This song is on Judas O; the B-Side collection that came with some versions of Rotten Apples (S.P. Greatest Hits)

[@Smashleykeen]

Trevor Paul what else is on Judas O?

[@samlucarelli]

This song always brightens my day

[@matiasherrera3406]

Qué linda canción la verdad. Me gusta la forma en que te hace sentir feliz y triste a la vez, bueno, como todo Adore :)

[@AdolBarish]

Tal cual! Se volvieron tan personales ellos para mi. Me trae nostalgia escucharlos.

[@priley218]

My fav smashing pumpkins song ..

[@VincentHanna86]

Best fucking band ever!!!!

[@ectoplasma5]

Yep

[@TheChrspog]

i don't think i ever heard this but im glad i did, I was looking for the b sides to thirty three

[@SunlessShadow]

beautiful beautiful, in between here and there, like a gap in time and space slashed by indescribable yearning, missing something i had never met...so real... so unknown...so... soulful! they've left timeless traces of light.

[@distractedspaces2592]

Underrated Song

[@as04059]

live version of this song is amazing (zeitgeist tour). just as well, studio version is layered beautifully. gives me a high every time.

[@priley218]

I’m gonna have to look into that . You still listening in 21’?

[@neonemulsion]

Shame was one of the best songs on the album. Especially when you think of what was going on when it was written.

[@ederzeitgeist]

One of the best pumpkins song ever!!

[@stratyocasterson9237]

1:48

[@Libertarianist2112]

Gish is beautiful

[@FrancescoLavorata]

one of my favourite...

[@magorzataulanowska6981]

🖤🖤

[@Porcelina777]

I've never heard this song until today. I knew it exsisted, but never gave it a listen. I feel deprived.

[@CoroaMario1]

SP B-Sides outsine most of rock bands' albums, even the ones from the 90's......

[@frederickm7179]

thank you for putting this up..... thnk u

[@XAntiViolenttX]

they used to be a perfect band, seriously.

[@haveatomato]

corgan has written as many good songs not an albums as he has on albums. this is definitly one of my favorites too.

[@Fredrikwatchesandartwork]

❤️this song

[@burritowendel]

a lonely heart song.

[@KayZero]

I actually agree with you. I still listen to those albums regularly... yet I can't seem to listen to zeitgeist much if at all. not a bad album- just not the smashing pumpkins I fell in love with. I still support them full heartedly. I'll be a fan 'til the end. Billy is amazing. there are some songs on machina/machina ii that are good, but most the time I can't listen to the albums all the way through, have to skip a couple songs here and there :x

[@wesdan126]

Love it!

[@mikogale]

the most underrated pumpkins song.. holy fuck

[@Chris_yes]

please try to slow ive never been this way before violence reels in the underground yes i am waiting in silence throe to fill the meanings to strike me down no more a reason than God above let your curses run yes i am waiting for your love

[@poindexterq.t.9011]

Chris S. always thought it was "please drive slow"...?

[@ederzeitgeist]

Grandiosa cancion, lastima que en su momento no se incluyo en el disco "Adore".

[@floppydisk35]

where was this shit hiding?! it's beautiful! :O

[@thedeadinme]

I agree. This should have made it on the album and not on the reissued deluxe or bside

[@as04059]

In silence throooooooooone

[@ednocondriaco]

Nobody gets this song live?

[@SusanaLD]

Please drive slow, i´ve never been this way before... Beautiful song ^^

[@LoungeFly23]

@f1uckingretard It's an Adore B-Side, so it could've appeared on the Adore album.

[@LucasSpurrell]

I share your disappointment with Zeitgeist. However if you listen to the outtakes and bonus tracks and continuation ep(American Gothic) you will see that there are some amazing songs there.

[@LoungeFly23]

@f1uckingretard The info says "Personally I think it would've fit nicely into Adore, but maybe it was after that era." I'm stating as a fact that it was a B-Side from Adore. The info seemed a little uncertain, so I was confirming it.

[@Fredrikwatchesandartwork]

Wow I like this song. One off the best Smashing song. This song and Perfect is best

[@LucasSpurrell]

What era did they write this song in do you know? I'd say around the adore days when they didn't have Jimmy but then again they have songs with electronic drums like this written when they had him so I don't know.

[@austihatecute]

This is the lead singers best hair cut I think

[@JoaquimVale]

Linda.

[@benjaminvidal2764]

Traduccion al español por favor

[@Christobird]

Beautiful song, one of my favorites for a long time. But it's not a b-side (that would require it accompanying an a-side single).

[@bolch88bb8]

cool song...defiantley sounds like it would of been on Adore

[@Echohead100]

Alright.

[@powerofktulu]

is the waiting demo from 89 a different song?

[@xlSQUIZZlx]

Sounds like a better version of "The Tale of Dusty and Pistol Pete"

[@sssbob]

don't do it chief......i was where you're at a few years ago. Jesus loves you.

[@clisk35]

amen

[@adolfobello2596]

:') ...

[@standinginside]

Just let me out....

[@Porcelina777]

Buy Gish.

[@Somarose]

great song that should've been on adore instead of shame, the worst song ever...

[@GermanPeoplePerson]

billy corgan had pretty hair. such a shame he lost it.. along with his musical talent.

[@slinkeepy]

FYI the peak of their career was when he first shaved all his hair off.

[@stratyocasterson9237]

Subjective opinions are subjective. Let us know when your multi platinum album drops.

[@shotgunshawzy]

SHAME is 10 times better than this.

[@itspersonal101]

My favorite track by them. Everything after Adore to me was terrible. Billy stick to your original formula....

[@slinkeepy]

Adore was a departure from their original formula, so... you're kinda not making much sense X)
