By far my favourite Pumpkins song.

[@bradoozy]

The Cooper Tech Kid It’s a good choice. It’s underrated and not too worn out

[@hunterkiller889]

Ikr

[@soul2squeezy439]

Same. This song is kinda like sequel to the song 1979.

[@katiacalado5486]

Amo

[@kymberlishea2036]

I could listen to Billy strum his guitar forever. ❤️❤️.

I KNOW you have heard this MANY times before BUT when this album first came out, I TRULY BELIEVED it said ALL needed saying to my boyfriend at the time. I sent it to him, at the radio station he was DJing for at the time. After 5 years of wasting my time...I have YET to speak with him again. 😊thank you for the words I could not find❤

[@halredlus4614]

I really like how a few times the accompanying singer loses herself in the song, and I’m thinking it is in the meaning. It’s really quite a song. I also am happy to see that he is embracing his past, because he should be proud of what he has put out for us to enjoy.

[@SegaSonicKidd]

Simply beautiful… Top Pumpkin song of all time

[@osamait1522]

[@jonnyfavors7585]

[@Acegalaxi]

After being separated from my long term girlfriend for a few years, but remaining close to her after... this song punches me in the gut every time!

[@KepperKleen]

[@tyty-fg2qm]

[@SegaSonicKidd]

[@ianingman1704]

Classic sounds great on acoustic sounds perfect 👍

[@cantbearpuns7439]

I would like to take a moment and appreciate Jeff's work. Thanks for being one of my inspirations!

[@anonfinally1692]

"We are reasons so unreal. We can't help but feel that something has been lost." That fucking hurt, Mr. Corgan.

[@eijikibino]

My gosh beautiful song l love it

[@didibou5160]

Perfect.

[@gabylu0504]

I’ll always love youu L !

[@vlllahhhh]

My girlfriend's parents forced her to cut contact with me due to homophobia. We talked for a while after they made us break up but recently she told me we have to stop talking for good. This song makes me think of her and us, hopefully one day in the future we can see each other again.

[@sammiehigz1146]

Love 🧡 I would be speechless too 🙌🏽🤷🏽‍♀️🎶🔥

[@justinhiggins2210]

Their first album without Jimmy, you can easily notice the sound of a drum machine in the album version of this song.

[@StudioReef]

❤❤❤❤

[@dollofshadows1703]

Is there a full version of this show available anywhere? I'd love to hear the full set...

[@борисзиновьев-т4б]

Зачетно!!!

Jeg melder'n inn i Perfekt-klubben.

[@alecwalsh9189]

You know your juuuuuust like me

[@overipecanine1485]

Gimme the chords.

[@ALeaud]

I think I know what Jeff Schroeder is playing in standard tuning, maybe. A D chord and lift your finger on the E string and then 8-7-5-3-3-3 followed by A and then Em. I don't know the rest of it but I've tried playing this part and it sounds pretty nice.

[@overipecanine1485]

@@ALeaud You are a saint, thank you very much.

[@ALeaud]

@@overipecanine1485 No problem! I wish we could see more of his guitar part. If you ever figure out the rest of this version please let me know.

[@hegenikolaisen5594]

It’s an illusion

[@РодСтюарт-ъ7р]

[@androiduser9086]

Hi, who knows that Bill Burr can also sing

[@fredericokeyser5628]

I only realized just now that he has the exact same speaking voice as tom cruise how weird is that 🤔

[@hegenikolaisen5594]

Er det rart J tror på GOD? Niks.

[@mrplume2651]

who the fuck is she ?

[@ИгорьСеменов-ш2ь]

А бородатая женщина это кто

[@katzenjammer505]

Remember listening to this album after Mellon Collie and didn't know how to first react to it because of the big departure in sound. 25 years or so later, I think this has become my favourite pumpkins album.

[@crygil]

PERFECT I know we're just like old friends We just can't pretend that lovers make amends We are reasons so unreal We can't help but feel that something has been lost But please, you know you're just like me Next time I promise we'll be perfect, perfect Perfect strangers down the line Lovers out of time, memories unwind So far I still know who you are But now I wonder who I was Angel, you know it's not the end We'll always be good friends But the letters have been sent on So please, you always were so free You'll see, I promise we'll be, perfect Perfect strangers when we meet Strangers on the street, lovers while we sleep Perfect, you know this has to be, we always were so free We promised that we'd be perfect, perfect, perfect

[@elblaya7022]

Perfect... i allwayd loved this song. I "Adored" it! :)

[@cglyvin2085]

It really is, "perfect".

[@adambadruddinsyah3178]

I sang this to my girlfriend "Sheila"

[@jockboys]

Was that in "1979" ?

[@M1A1.]

I even watched it with my friend "Ava" ! ;)

[@bw7043]

You wouldn't put a muzzle on his voice

[@joshuamartini6034]

Once in a great while, bands write a song that is timeless.

[@lavielemond]

Agreed 100%, mate...Jesus, it's 25 years old this year! Cheers & best wishes from 'Down Under'...Matt.

[@gavingreer]

Billy then Mozart then Michael Jackson

[@pablogarciavasquez6637]

BEAUTIFUL SONG !

[@JustinRSarno]

It cuts straight to the heart.

[@ustheserfs]

Such a wistful tone to this one

[@ChrisKotra]

Looked it up to see if he ever played it in the last 5 years. Was surprised to see he had.

[@stuartcarter7053]

Bad camera work. Totally missed the solo.

[@ChicoAzevedo]

The audience is dead?!
