Zwan "Of A Broken Heart"

[@leahnelson4227]

Anyone else feel like Zwan was a severely underrated band? Beautiful music

[@johnschimmel7350]

I was lucky enough to catch him playing this one at his tea place a few years ago! I died after I heard those first chords…

[@woerwaks]

So underrated they are not even to be found on Spotify in Europe 🙄🤬

[@SunRefracted]

Completely this is the first time I’m hearing anything besides Lyric and I’m amazed!!

[@heavymetal2416]

Absolutely

[@lem207]

The band the Pumpkins wished they could of been.

[@zackevanz3804]

Having just recently been dealt a broken heart this song resonates hard. I've never wanted to leave life of the ones I truly love but damn its wild the emotions love and sadness can invoke. Until I die of a broken heart I'll keep listening to this gem for another 20 years and continue trying to find sense in it all. I feel lost, deflated, used, and just complete sadness for a life that once thrived with love. Life is just plain pain while we're here, "you've got to go through hell before you get to heaven" Jet Airliner

Are you okay now? X

[@zackevanz3804]

@@samhawksworth1716 well I almost actually died about a month ago from a pulmonary embolism so that definitely pulled me from my slump. Having something almost kill you will make you realize this life can be taken anytime so its about experiencing all the good and the bad and you gotta embrace them all to really feel alive.

I fucking love this I saw pumpkins 5 times in concert and saw zwan as well kicks ass live still love this album and band ❤❤❤

[@WoodyAllenManiac]

I listened to this record so much In high school. I kept a Zwan sticker in my locker. Great memories.

[@jammwill]

I forgot how great this song is. I saw Zwan in a small club in Indianapolis in 2002. Was crazy seeing Billy in such a small venue!

[@markshaver3814]

Yes..I heard his ego was HUGE!!! 😂jk

[@Sogonrei]

I saw him twice once in Milwaukee in the Eagle Ball Room, another time in Chicago, I can't recall the venue. But it was amazing. I liked the Zwan songs they had a good vibe.

Corgan said in an interview yesterday he regarded this as the strongest song on the album ⭐️ 🌈

[@markshaver3814]

Its deep and real, and from the heart!!

[@thriftstorefemme]

And interestingly enough it's the most reminiscent of SP to me

[@backfru]

What album?

[@williamconstable8987]

Mary Star of the Sea

[@davidcjupp]

​@@thriftstorefemmeI think a lot of the Pumpkins esque songs were left off the record because he wanted a clean break. Chrysanthemum, Cast a Stone, Love Lies in Ruin, For Your Love, Rivers We Can't Cross, My Life & Times. All had that beautiful Pumpkins heart.

[@lucristianx]

“If only I die, just once in my life” never has a lyric rang more true in my life.

[@Domn879]

Can I ask why? I never really got that lyric.

[@lucristianx]

@@Domn879 when you have a family with addiction issues. It’s like you die every time when they’re in the pain of it. You can say this for many negative cycles we go through.

[@Domn879]

@@lucristianx Thanks. Take care.

[@Sogonrei]

In concert I bawled when this came on. It really resonated. It wasn't just over a relationship it was deep.

[@OMEGAMASSIVE]

The intro is everything.

[@miksmith41]

Melts my heart. The beauty :)

[@amymuchko7106]

Gorgeous guitar.

[@ClamorSuave]

After so many years I still love the song! And it reminds me of "I'd like to die of love" by Myslovitz.

[@markshaver3814]

I am going to check that out right now!!

[@markshaver3814]

So I checked out that song. Wow, same vibe!! I could hear Billy singing it too. Good ear man!! I like the song too.

[@atravelerofbothtimespace4172]

Dammit I've got to check that out now aswell lol cheers

[@heavymetal2416]

Reminds me of my mother who passed away last year

[@markshaver3814]

My buddy Pat died last year in may. He died of a heart attack along with a broken heart from a divorce. I wouldnt mind being next. Theres nothing left since moms gone and now Pat. I hate my life. I'm not being suicidal but I feel like theres nothing left to live for. I never got married and no kids. Too fucked up to have that ife I guess. I just feel no purpose anymore. When you're 44 years old no body hangs out anymore. Everybody is to themselves and distant. I used to reach out but not anymore. Just how life is now. I'm not fishing for encouragement either, just saying for some people life changes for the worse, and it gets dark and lonely. I just want someone to read this and be like yeah I feel the same way and maybe have a beer and identify with each other. Misery loves company right??

[@michaelwandell2533]

Dude, I started reading this and had to scroll back up wondering if I wrote it long ago or something. I'm going through a terrible break up.i miss her terribly. I'm 39. Never married. Never had kids. Terribly depressed. There are definitely people going through what you're going through. I really could have written what you wrote. How are you doing now? Did things get better??

[@markshaver3814]

@@michaelwandell2533 Man I really appreciate this reply!! So I prayed a prayer to God yesterday morning on the way to work and said "Give me a reason to stop drinking and hating my life". I ate lunch at my job that day and heard this song that was really touching me. I looked up the song and read the lyrics and started crying. It's as if the Lord was speaking to me through this song from my prayer. The band is called TENTH AVENUE NORTH and the song is "By your side". It might not move you but it did me. We look for people to give us love and worth but we are human and disappoint each other. Its God we are unknowingly searching for. I've realized this.

@@markshaver3814 Bro if you're saying and feeling this, its time to go Boo hoo nobody cares Might aswell just drink myself to sleep again., and agai, again Im SO sorry Mom! Grow up Get busy living, or get busy dying Pick one There is no in between. Id choose the pills and alcohol option. Let us know how it goes

[@markshaver3814]

@@backfru OH hey whats up bro?? Yeah I was just a little depressed a few months ago. Thanks for the encouragement man i appreciate it. I lost alot of sleep over your comment. I thoughtbto myself why would "presjo" say that to me after all we been through. I thought you were a better friend than that.

[@tinkerfox1774]

Mary Star of The Sea is a good album. Got me through some tough times. You should also check out VNV Nation. "Carry You" is a great song.

[@_permanence]

I bought it back in 2003 and didn’t think much of it at the time. I thought it was too soft and lyrics a bit wet. There are some good songs on there that I can appreciate more now. Some of the Zwan deeper cuts that didn’t make the album were stronger imo

[@markshaver3814]

Funny story...my buddy James bought the cd when it came out and it had a Zwan sticker in it and he gave the sticker to me. I put it in my dresser and forgot about it until years later. I bought the cd used at a store and it didnt have the sticker. So I searched in my dresser and found it. Now my cd is complete lol🤣😂
