[quote=dazedcola] where boys fear to tread,quote]
shit forgot that one! |
Best song: Hummer
and that's all there is to know. |
I was a big fan of SP long time ago...
for me the best are: snail hummer obscured landslide la dolly vita the boy set the ray to jerry aeroplane flies high |
I also really like the last song off of Mellon Collie. I'm so tired right now... is it called "Goodnight"? I'm singing to myself and I'm ready for bed.
|
Adore is their only album I don't have. I don't know whether it's supposed to be good or not.

I'm surprised by all of the people who list "Bodies" among the best SP songs; I mean, seriously...what is the appeal of this song? Unless I'm listening all the way through, I almost always skip it in favor of "Thirty-Three".
Here's the 2-disc mix I made of my fav SP songs: disc one: 1. Sinfony 2. Rocket 3. Rhinoceros 4. Cherub Rock 5. Zero 6. Today 7. Hummer 8. Weeping Willowly [instrumental, from late 1994 demo sessions] 9. Here Is No Why 10. Fuck You 11. Mouths of Babes 12. Tribute to Johnny 13. The Everlasting Gaze 14. Thru the Eyes of Ruby 15. Stand Inside Your Love 16. To Sheila 17. The Last Song 18. The Aeroplane Flies High (Turns Left, Looks Right) disc two: 1. Soma 2. Geek U.S.A. 3. Mayonaise 4. 1979 5. For Martha 6. Thirty-Three 7. Let Me Give the World to You 8. Siva [BBC Sessions, 9/91] 9. Drown 10. Silverfuck 11. Starla 12. Luna [acoustic] There are lots of great songs left out, but it's such a solid collection that it blows me away at any rate. Songs I wish I could include: Snail, Hello Kitty Kat, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans, By Starlight, In the Arms of Sleep, The Tale of Dusty and Pistol Pete, Blissed and Gone, Wound [acoustic], Vanity, and Speed Kills. As for worst songs.... Tales of a Scorched Earth, Lily, We Only Come Out at Night, Czarina, Where's Vince, The Crying Tree of Mercury, Annie Dog...to name some. Their later albums suffer from poor track selection, and great songs tended to be shelved for songs that fit whatever theme Billy was trying to fit. Adore and Machina suffer from this in particular, and songs like "Blissed and Gone", "Let Me Give the World to You", "Vanity", "Speed Kills", and "Glass Theme" got the axe while stinkers like "Annie Dog", "The Crying Tree of Mercury", and "The Imploding Voice" found their way onto albums. Dammit. |
I'm a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan, in fact they are probebly my favourite band
The Best Rhinoceros, Snail, Hummer, Disarm, Soma, Mayonaise, Luna, Tonight Tonight, Zero, Here is no why, To Forgive, Galapogos, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans, Bodies, Thirty-Three, 1979 (greatest song ever - soundtract to my youth), By Starlight, Marquis in Spades, My Mistake, Sparrow, Perfect, Tear, The Tale of Pistol Pete, Behold! The Nightmare, For Martha (always send shivers down my spine), The Everlasting Gaze, Stand inside your love, I of the Mourning, Try, Glass and the Ghost Children, Age of Innocence to name but a few |

I like SP although I don't listen to them much nowadays. Here's some of my favourites: The Aeroplane Flies High, Starla, Thirty-Three, Cherub Rock, Today, Hummer, Rhinoceros, Bullet With Butterfly Wings.
The worst are the final 4 tracks from Mellon Collie. I just can't stand them. |
Where Boys Fear To Tread and Bodies off Mellon Collie are good. So are Cherub Rock and Geek USA. Real good songs. :) I tend to dislike their slower numbers. Billy Corgan's voice is not very melodic and is a bit whiny.
