Zwan - Jesus, I/Mary Star Of The Sea

[@joshmatthews5085]

7:54 this riff 😢 2023 and it’s still the best

[@davidebarbieri2746]

This is one of the best songs Billy Corgan ever composed ...the second part ,after instrumental interlude ,(Mary star of the sea) always blows me away🖤🖤

[@nicolenorris6643]

Love this song, the guitar solo is awesome, all hail billy

[@garythompson2751]

You are most definitely correct!

[@bindingjames]

This is more Pumpkins than any Pumpkins album 2007 onwards!

Still can't find either Zwan or any of these songs on streaming services. So thank you much for making this available.

Para quem viaja ouvindo uma bela música. Ao infinito . . .e além!

❤🎉

[@stefanodegerome5586]

I got this on CD back in the old days and this is still my favorite song on the whole album. P.S.: Jimmy Chamberlin, oh my God, what a drummer he is.

[@RailroadTy]

Such a great jam. It'd be interesting to see what a second Zwan album would have been like. I really like the vibe that Zwan had but Billy went off in a different direction.

[@johnniea4684]

They had at least two full albums of excellent material that they'd showcased live to great effect, but which never appeared in recorded form. Much of it was better than most of what ended up on MSotS. Hopefully they appear in at least good demo form (like the Machina 2 Pumpkins songs) at some point, but this relies on Billy getting over his problems with Pajo and Paz.

Such a blast from the past. Happy to rediscover this. Saw these at Download Festival 2003. When they played Jesus, I/Mary Star of the Sea the heavens opened and the "everything feels like rain" was very true :)

[@altarofkubrickfloyd]

One of my favorite albums in high school, saw the band at the Orpheum in Boston, March 2003. Great times.

[@nicholasmontana3026]

This is my anthem

[@MichaelKurse]

Jesus..,I've taken my cross....

[@JonathanNelsonOfficial]

Out to leave and follow Thee.

[@流川彩楓]

なんて心地の良いギター音だ ドラムもタイトで素晴らしい

[@alexvaccaro1306]

One of the first CDs I wore out in my adolescence. Tore my place apart today trying to find this relic, but she gone. Thank you for uploading this banger of an album! Sounds as badass as the first time I heard it!

[@bmck1974]

Yes...Love this album

[@10chasnig13]

Thanks....I've sold the cd and can't find it on Spotify. So thanks, one of the most beautiful albums of that year.

[@shineonyoucrazydanielle]

One of my fav songz

[@coffeeawakening]

Sound like early Pumpkins, it could've been on Gish or Siamese Dream.

[@designationzero9979]

I was vacationing in Mexico and we were in traffic in the outskirts of Mexico City. This song was jamming and then I saw the Zwan factory (Zwanenberg Food Group) sign and everyone in the car was lit.

[@tgf7w7]

Nice. Good karma.

[@ljrees1721]

Masterpiece

[@ronaldsprinkle2973]

Zwan is like if Smashing Pumpkins never went the mellon collie infinite sadness route and its awesome.

[@mikeisagodd2121]

Mellon Collie is the greatest album in the history of music....you don't know shit

[@corbenvanloosbroek]

Even though Mellon collie is the best album they’ve ever put out and is one of the best albums ever created

[@aaronhoel8269]

I always thought of Zwan as "apologetic Pumpkins." Loved this album!

[@GeekTalkwithMerg]

​@@corbenvanloosbroek Siamese dream would like a word.

[@otgv]

The instrumental part sounds just like Aerial M/Papa M, which is the guitarist David Pajo's solo project.

[@tgf7w7]

Amazing! Oh, what could have been.

[@veryImportantArtsAndThat]

I love this album. Prefer it even to any Pumpkins album. Controversial perhaps but I don't care. And this song in it's entirety is the best of Billy and Jimmy. It starts as a solid happy poppy rock song and then builds tension to an operatic sonic tumultuous prog epic. Drumming is ridiculously good throughout. How can it be that good and not sound show offy?

[@victorpalheta3881]

5:21 where the most smashing pumpkins song which is not from smashing pumpkins begins

[@zackliedke2210]

This just hits so hard it's like pumpkins but with a twist.

[@itsmarmalade]

This is one of the few albums I'm REALLY glad I bought, especially since it's almost impossible to find any mention of these days. Do any of the streaming services have this available?

[@sgtsquank]

Nope not that I have found. I feel like we're a special few who actually heard this thing when it came out and then, like you said, it just disappeared. Weird stuff.

[@sabryzerozero]

thanx sooooo mutch!!!!

[@danzai]

first half of this song sucks in my opinion

[@altarofkubrickfloyd]

Well that’s just like, your opinion, man.

[@danzai]

@@altarofkubrickfloyd ok dude

[@johnniea4684]

Well, I'm afraid your opinion blows.

[@danzai]

@@johnniea4684I have bad sales and bad reviews to back up my opinion. What do you have besides unwavering fan devotion? nothing.

[@johnniea4684]

@@danzai Think you're mixing yourself up there, Charlie. You're commenting on this song, remember - not the album? This song was not released as a single (it's long) and I doubt you can find a review of it either. Good job not being able to argue your way out of a paper bag though, poindexter. Unwavering fan devotion! What a clown. I'm not a big fan of the album. The band and this song were actually really good, however. You, meanwhile are one of those dickheads who post laughably off-base comments on obscure songs from 20+ years ago, in a saddo attempt to annoy people who may enjoy the track. You'll probably predictably reply that you got a rise out of me - as that's what your type always does - so I'll head you off at the pass and say thank you, I enjoyed myself handing you your ass. You can thank me if you like 😄
