Adore is an acquired taste, unlike Mellon Collie, Siamese Dream or even Machina. You can get hooked to those with the first listens but it takes patience and time to truly appreciate Adore as the masterpiece it is.

[@Federicoiopicozzi]

Dave absolutely true man!

[@knfbnny]

Dave I think adore is my favorite

[@oportunismopoetico5911]

In my case, this album was given to me as a present and was the first I heard from them. It's my favourite and love Sp since then :)

[@pablorello]

Unlike you, I felt in love with Adore from the first time I hear it

[@jorgeluismunoz7409]

Its amazing, so beatiful, the most beauty álbum of Smashing Pumpkins!

[@GoreSmasher]

Adore is underrated. A dark and sad ballad.

[@tutsybassista]

Gore Smasher I've always seen Adore as their best album! 💝

[@robertloera01]

Gore Smasher so is machina shit machina was the most beautiful album

[@zoopopzoo]

Masterpiece of an underrated era!

[@rabblerouser6744]

If only they recorded the album like they play it live

[@robertloera01]

that guy on the piano is a fuckin genius

[@Random123Stuff]

Starting with „Sunmertime“ and ending with „Blank Page“ is so incredible... My solitude is recognized in every chord and letter.

[@francoisseguin8992]

Mike Garson on the piano :)

[@azfakakol9901]

Adore is a hidden jewel... Only a portion of their previous fans could understand what they offered. In fact Adore was underrated because the Pumpkins completely changed their style. Billy Corgan leaded a masterpiece carefully thought in his details (including the photography by Yelena Yemchuck).The result was a beautiful acoustic-electronic dark album.

[@Muskateering]

I love it cuz it was such a tough time for him so it's like he retreated to his inner child and drew influences from music he grew up listening to, like New Order, Joy Division, The Cure, Bowie, early U2 mostly British music from the 80's and so had to work around it without the drummer whose almost like the secondary member. He lost his mom, the keyboardist died of an overdose on tour, the drummer was too hooked on drugs to continue playing, went through a divorce and was also having a tough time with his record label. So many things were going on hence the very gothic (and real British 80's gothic not fake) style of the music. The definition of an underrated masterpiece, critics and fans didn't think much of it at the time, but yes they did go in a whole new direction.

[@protestante21]

I'm in agree

[@jeffreymontoya9933]

It's strange because I know this is supposed to be the idea of what the attitude towards adore was. But that wasn't my experience at the time (I was in 7th or 8th grade and had been a fan since Siamese Dream). I remember all of my friends liking Adore a lot, just as it seems everyone still loves it to this day. My first SP show was a massive block party held in Minneapolis during the Adore tour. It was the largest, craziest crowd I've ever seen in front of SP and I've seen them 7 times. Adore rules.

[@alexbeamer9636]

This was the day I was born!

[@northernelitegoaltending]

Kenny Aronoff said this was the best show he has ever been part of or seen. He called this set flawless.

[@psychocuda]

That guitar is fucking weeping! Amazing.

[@firebrnd13]

Incredible. What I would give to have seen that live.

[@travistravinyle4207]

That was a stunning show. We knew it was being pro shot but Billy seemed very unhappy with their performance. I saw them in Charlotte on this tour also and I have to say it was a bit better, but this one is still excellent

[@danielshaw2327]

firebrnd13 this was y first concert

[@halfawhole1]

Was amazing.

[@paulburns1333]

Incredible performance by the whole band, what a brilliant fckn racket. Full of heart and soul, blows holes in the output of much more vaunted groups and still criminally unknown by too many people.

[@mrBnadeau]

Amazing song and version. 25 years later still a masterpiece

[@halfawhole1]

My first SP concert.

[@marcoantonioortizg5210]

I miss being a teen in the 90's

[@allenjohnson4043]

What makes Adore the crown jewel of the SP catalogue is that no matter the song they can perform it so many different ways live. That is the genius of Adore. Perfect example: listen to Pug on 98 tour vs 99 tour. Amazing eargasm either way.

[@amadomachacon919]

Hey

[@mikestanislaus1533]

One word:EPIC!

[@davepetraska2932]

Ha. That's what I came up with too!

[@Federicoiopicozzi]

What a masterpiece...very underrated album

[@chris8130]

Absolut. Blank Page mit das beste Lied, dass jemals aufgenommen wurde. Sehr sehr sentimental, und das trifft mitten ins Herz. Adobe mit das beste Album einer Band in den 90ern

[@chris8130]

Meinte natürlich Adore

[@giomaister]

Come rimpiango i vecchi Pumpkins, semplicemente Incredibili, Adore live è pazzesco e questa canzone Epica! Grazie a chi ha postato questo video! Grazie!!!

[@Federicoiopicozzi]

[@LuizMGRamos]

May all gods bless you James Iha.

[@robertosmith1]

I've never listened to any other album as much as I've listened to Adore. Nothing else even comes close.

[@igetit4939]

Rock opera and its finest

[@rl8925]

Oh my god

[@seirralumpy129]

Adore Is the most underrated sp album

[@chris8130]

Absolut. Das beste Album der Pumpkins. Mit das beste Album der 90er neben Nevermind Nirvana

Breathless. This brought tears to my eyes.

[@yettocometarragon1916]

Flawless. voice

[@BallonRondMTL]

I come back to this song over and over again. I am full of awe.

[@braxtonwages195]

Adore is very personal, very dark but gorgeous album. It’s Billy’s most mature work for sure. I wish I was there to see that.

[@shurikmx]

Una página en blanco fue todo el coraje nunca tuve la intención de decir nada En cama estaba medio muerto cansado de soñar con descansar me vestí y conduje por la división estatal buscándote a las cinco y diez una señal de alto me dijo que me quedara en casa me dijo que no estabas sola Una página en blanco fue toda la ira nunca tuve la intención de herir a nadie en cama estaba medio muerto cansado de soñar con descansar No has cambiado aún eres la misma puedes levantarte como te caes fuiste fácil, ya estás olvidada eres el resultado de mis errores Yo atrapo la caída de la lluvia a través de mi goteante techo que has dejado atrás Tú me haces recordar sobre ese goteo en mi alma la lluvia cae mis amigos llaman la lluvia gotea sobre el teléfono Tomate un día y planta algunos árboles puede que ellos te protejan de mi puede que tus hijos jueguen entre ellos Una página en blanco fue toda la ira nunca quise herir a nadie en cama estaba medio muerto cansado de soñar con descansar

[@adrixherrera1627]

[@jorgeluismunoz7409]

Esta canción es una de mis favoritas, me destroza cuando la oigo!

[@jacobopinzon5252]

Chido compa!!!

[@gedimangediman]

Para mi es como un himno, me identifica y me rompe el alma en miles de pedazos. "Pero ahí estaba yo, recogiendo pedazos, eres el fantasma de mi indecisión, no más pequeña niña".

[@JorgeMunoz-zp7lx]

Si. Muy dolorosa canción. Lloraba mucho con esta canción a mis 17.

[@brunoalmeidadeoliveira1779]

Perfect! Marvellous! It`s SP!!!! Love this song!!!!!
