#TheSmashingPumpkins #StandInsideYourLove #Remastered
This album was one of those Marty McFly moments when it released. "I guess you guys aren't ready for this yet."
Hehe, great analogy! xD
I loved 'Machina' from the moment it was released, and still do.
I was a huge Pumpkins fan and I appreciate this album way more now than I did when I was 16
I was ready :) But you're right, the album concept was ahead of time
Truer words were never said, mate.
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written, pure poetry.
"Pure lunacy"
Absolutely agree. I loved this song in middle school but didn't know the lyrics until I was listening to it today and actually LISTENED. I was moved to tears.
ABSOFUCKENLUTELY!! TEARS! For half my life Ive loved this song.
True. This song is how it sounds to be bursting with love as an adult.
Absolutely.
I don't know what Billy was intending when he wrote this, but there has been no song better at picking me up, wiping the self loathing off of me and letting me know that someday, someone would want to stand inside my love.
Love this.
Wow ,you got the feels going! I feel ya :)
i stand inside your love
I’m going through a divorce and this song gives me hope there will be someone for me in the future.
Women will never love like men can. Only a man would wrap a wire around your heart.
I'm 34 and been listening to The Smashing Pumpkins since I was 13. Their music always stays with me.
Evp Investigations Good music sticks with you
Same here man!!!! :)
Same!
You never truly forget something that you connect with in your soul. It can just take some time to remember it, but it will always be there.
Same here (except I’m 35)
The drum part is pure perfection. No other drummer would play this song like Jimmy does.
Jimmy Chamberlain is my favorite drummer
Amen
That kick drum driving the whole thing along ... it's great!
Absolutely 💯
I thought the same thing and then I heard my friend Pablo and I asked him to play the the tambourine and geometric pure magic I sat there and cried well that's just me but
I've been very pleasantly surprised to hear this at a couple weddings over the years.
This song really feels like endless, eternal love to me.
Yes I think it is
The lyrics are beautiful
Music can save you from suicide. Thank you, Smashing Pumpkins.
Damn. This hit hard because I teared up when I read your comment. This band has saved more lives than they'll ever know.. ❤️
:')
so adoored he was...
Yes, it can, Thank you, Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones.
Deftones? The song Risk comes to mind.
For a kid that grew up in the 90's, Smashing Pumpkins were a huge part of who his is today.
Now i'm closing in on my 50s and couldn't be more grateful for those days.
Thank You Billy.
You didnt grow up in the 90's dude, you were already old in the 90's.... and you definitely creeped all the kids out.
@@adamimberti6948 🤣🤣🤣 why did you roast him so hard
@@adamimberti6948 think he was in his teens like I was in nineties, and when he says approaching fifties,it could mean he's about fourty- three or so now,and that would add up,you amoeba. We Owned the nineties,actually lived it,you guys only have Heard about it ❤️
@@commentandlikedistributor it’s only a roast if it was funny
@@adamimberti6948 if he’s almost 50 he was 20 in 95... you’re projecting weirdo
LOVE this song still in 2024 🖤
Me too ♥ ♥
This song is eternal. We are going to love it forever.
I go to sleep to it almost every night 🖤
Nein, nein, nein!
By far, the best song the Smashing Pumpkins ever made. This is truly their Magnum Opus. The feels are just as incredibly strong today, in 2022 than back in 2000, when it first came out.
I don't know if it's better than hummer
@@marcosquintero8341 For me it is
The 90's were good to Billy
Nowhere near being their best song
But still very very good
LOVE IS LOVE DUDE!!!!
LOVE WIL STIL BE LOVE IN 10000YEARS FROM NOW1!!! THIS SONG WILL BE RELEVANT UNTILL LOVE IS NO MORE!!!!
Travel the world, traverse the sky. Your Home is here, within my heart
If this isn’t the greatest love song of all time I don’t know what is. It transcends everything before and after it.
Totally agree
Never has a chorus been so poignant.
"youre my forever" TEARS.
This, Stella Maris by Neubauten and Today by Jefferson Airplane are my favourite love songs
slide away
You and me
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible
It's destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Insufferable
But for the last time
You're everything that I want and ask for
You're all that I'd dreamed
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul and beautiful you
Don't understand
Don't feel me now
I will breathe
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn
In my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
And for the first time
I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound
In my time
I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
You're mine forever now
Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn't be the one you love
💕
thnx for posting the lyric!
+Bec G Beautiful lyric thanks
+Valeria Gambardella I felt every lyric right now
que lindo 😍
Does this music comes from another universe? You can honestly ask yourself the question...
I'm 41 and have been listening primarily to extreme death metal my entire life. I think this song is a masterpiece.
To each his own. Whatever makes you happy or whatever mood you're searching for but I'm glad you discovered these guys. One of my very favorite bands. Not just the 90s, but all time
Right there with ya brother. I realised I was ‘trapped in a box’ … and then my taste Grew into “Anything with a Soul, Dark or Light, is for Me”.
Quality not Quantity forevermore
Extreme!
Why do people always feel the need to give their age when commenting on a song on RUclips. It's become such a weird trope. No one cares how old you are.
I'm in a same boat and should be in middle aged?
so grateful this band has been part of my life since the first album
2020 yes, my fave song from them, does anybody still listening?
I’ve been a SP fan since I was 11 and I turned 30 this year. Had the honor of meeting Billy Corgan and saw them play twice on their reunion tour. I’ll never stop listening! :)
@@cosmikgazer OMG 😱😱😱😱
Me
Yup!!!
yep
The Smashing Pumpkins videos are small works of art
I dont get why this album did so terrible, this is a masterpiece.
the genre was dying out? it was about pop. nsync, backstreet boys, etc...
Definitely one of the most underrated albums I know of. I admit I wasn't crazy about it myself when it first came out, but since then I've come to regard it as an incredible album.
diornotwar123 No...I don't think that was it. Music of this type was incredibly popular in the late nineties,early 2000's...I'd say maybe people just found bands they liked more. Most likely its because CD writers and MP3's became a thing. People also don't seem to remember there was no RUclips, things like that..MTV, radio stations,would've probably been the only advertising you'd get...besides word of mouth or seeing the album on the shelf.
I agree. They had tons of great songs before Machina, but something about it made it stand apart from the rest, something I felt made it their best album. The lyrics of every songs were some of their best. With the return of Jimmy Chamberlin, he played his ass off and had some of the best drums of any of their albums. It just came out at the wrong damned time. The shift from Grunge and Alternative to Pop hurt. The 90s, to me, was the last great music era and this album was the icing on a decade long cake.
Machina was originally going to be a double album but their record label refused to release it due to the sales of Adore. So they had to split the record in two and due to the dismal sales of Machina, the label refused to release Machina II, hence why Billy released it for free over the internet.
i wish someone loves me like this song
Same here..
Incredible beatiful song, video based on "Salomé" by Oscar Wilde and art-nouveau illustrations by Aubrey Beardsley.
This is a glorious & gorgeous piece of Art.
Corgan is a genius
Geoff le Geoff I agree. However, the problem
Is that billy also knows that he is.
Used to be. And that is a tragedy in itself.
*was. Now he is a parody of himself
So true...so true
WAS a genius.
This is pure art. One day someone will love me like this, and I'll love them the same.
I hope so. Remember to love yourself first and foremost.
@@sdc6447 don’t know about that. The whole “self love” thing seems to be the antithesis of real love since love is outward focused.
@@oompaloompadoompa-de-doo3614 Can't you do or have both?
yea me too I hope I'm loved so much that I get shackled in a bathtub of a fat greasy slob. Heavenly!
para, não vai achar nada disso kk só ilusão
Billy Corgan is a musical genius
"Your home is here, within my heart...."If that doesn't explain love in 7 words, I don't know what does.
It's a cliche though.
@@MegaLotusEater fair take. In my experience though, love is realizing that you don't give a damn what's cliche and what isn't. It just is
@@PercyEllis-qk9qb Ok, but if you put cliches in a song, you can't expect anyone with discernment to treat it as good poetry.
@@MegaLotusEater oh my bad lol. I thought you were talking about the concept of love itself. As far as this song goes (and the whole album, for that matter), it's not exactly known in the SP's catalog as being their most poetic work. I think it works within the context of the songs, but I agree: it wouldn't make good poetry.
One of the greatest love songs ever written.
Just got married two weeks ago and this was my first dance song. It gives me goose bumps every time I listen to it.
congratulations!
It's 3 years later, how's the relationship going?
if i was the best man........i would have danced to this song 1979 times in a row.........some people say you can hear me dancin tonight..... tonight.....
@@FreedomLovin it was playing while I proposed and was in our wedding video. My wife and I are four years strong!
How do you dance to that tho
Beautiful new discovery in 2024
Amazing!
2:55-3:30 hits my soul every time. I could loop that forever and be good.
Yes this is amazing
I couldn’t agree more. It makes me feel in ways that only very few songs do.
same here
Fans of this should listen to Poets Of The Fall - Lift.
Agreed! 100%
This should have been their biggest hit. Best song by the Smashing Pumpkins, hands down. It rips, it pulls, inspires, and creates furious longing and determination. All wrapped up in a psychotic desire that envelopes and owns itself to boot.
Just one of those songs that makes me feel really happy. Especially when its played LOUD...
Cheers on the linguistics my friend very well said, your words come to life.
Corgan admitted in interviews that limp bizkit and Korn were all the rage at the time and that was what I was listening 2 also unfortunately. I was in love with the pumpkins until Ava adore which now I feel is the goat song/video they ever made. This music still stands out and holds its age when other bands dont. I feel they are finally getting the accolades they deserve bc of RUclips and etc. Sometimes it appeals better years later imo unfortunately.
Eh
This song and 1979 are my favourite SP songs...this here is a masterpiece
"Your home is here within my heart"
This is a beautiful love song if I ever heard one.
To add to what so many others are starting to say here, I will tell you why this song is so great and why other love songs are not like it: conviction. It's describing a love that is fueled by conviction, resolve, and one that is divine in origin, in Billy's own words. How many love songs do you hear saying things like "For the first time, I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for your every move and waking sound. In my time, I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind. You're mine forever now." And those lyrics in the musical setting they're in communicate a bold declaration of commitment and fact, almost devoid of emotion or opinion. That's a type of love that's an unmoving object, and that's freaking powerful. That's in a completely different universe from the love that pop music describes. It makes me happy to see this song so celebrated in the comments, as usually I don't hear this song praised anywhere near enough by Pumpkins fans.
Extremely well put, thank you❤️
THIS SONG IS SO UNDERRATED IT HURTS
Easily one of their best songs!
❤
This song makes me tear up 98% of the time I hear it. So powerful .
Oh my god the guitar solo near the end is magical, like a supersonic star-scream to the heavens! my ears just melt
Jacob Bagley I love this description and actually quoted you when I shared this video on FB. 🖤🖤🖤 I literally get chills during the solo. How cool is it that I’m not alone in nerding out over this? 😂
@@PaRappa00001 Same here
It's one of the greatest solos ever..You can feel.the electricity in your veins.. FANTASTIC
@@PaRappa00001 same here!
The lead-up to the solo is pure genius, increases the effect.
This song is in my top 10 of all time
I must say that's some damn good drumming from Chamberlin!
I read the article In "Modern Drummer" where Jimmy Chamberlain talked about coming back to be with the Pumpkins after being away. Billy asked him to come back and drum for Machina, and Chamberlain was so excited. Chamberlain said he practiced and practiced to get ready; he was worried about his 'hand speed.' One of the greatest rock drummers ever!
@@geriwurth4008 He's in my top five of all time . He plays with such amazing taste and sense of dynamic. It's very much so bringing musical elements into their songs instead of just " playing a beat" .
This song has so much heart behind it it makes me bleed every time i hear it
This song was my "love at first sight". There is no other song like it.
Quality is timeless. Smashing pumpkins equals quality. Their music will be phenomenal in decades and centuries to come. It always stands out.
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
This is it. The song of all time. Ive listened to it thousands of times and never tire of Billy and his voice/lyrics. Im a huge fan but, this song is beyond beautiful. Seriously, my favorite song in the world.
A great choice! My favorite SP song for sure, it absolutely soars!!
Truly. 🤘❤
And yet there are people who say Billy is one of the worst singers. Insane.
Well said.
Seriously, how does this song only have 1.1 million views? This is one of the best rock songs in the last 25 years. Billy Corgan had a haunting way and a very melodic way of bringing art to life!
Because the only Smashing Pumpkins songs that get radio airplay are the singles from MCIS and Siamese Dream.
JakeGraceAndGlory Hidden treasure my friend
Check again! 8.5 million!
You fuckin' rock, bro !!! 🤘
cause youtube doesnt mean anything . fantastic lovesong
I once dedicated this to the person I was dating. Didn't get any reaction from him. That should have been a sign.
someone just showed me this song and idk how to react. maybe he was scared? or maybe just a weirdo 😭
well in my case when i sent it to him we had been together for 6 years already... I don't know about you@@adeliafleur8308
Masterpiece and pure poetry. Not many great bands had poetry this good.
2024 still listening this masterpiece
Same bro! !Its possible it might span a few more years. see ya in 10!
@@kiwifulla7370yeahh..
Absolutely 💯🇳🇱🇨🇦
Yes it is and nothing compares to it❤
7/31/2024
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
"who wouldn't be the one you love, who wouldn't stand inside your love" all of a sudden those lyrics meant everything 😭
That incredibly elegant e-bowing from James Iha
H K he’s an awesome guitarist for sure
Sounds more like Billy wrote that part
“I wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
You’re mine forever.”
... is probably one of my favourite lines in a Smashing Pumpkins song.
THIS WILL NEVER GET OLD
Im 43, been listening to SP since I was 13...this song is one of their best & brilliantly captures the insanity of love
Hi I recommend an indie rock song called 'looking into the mirror' By Robert Nix
@@redskies4530 u have GOT to be kidding!! Thanks but no, no thank u
You will never know how much I adore this band
Yeah I will.
Rs ❤
I cried thinking of my wife when I realized this song's lyrics, poetry, masterpiece from Billy Corgan.
Just recently discovered the depth of this band's catalogue. It is so beautiful. A mix of melancholy and longing in the lyrics with the best instrumental backup you could ever ask for.
you and me both, so glad I gave them a chance
Adore is their most perfect work IMO….enjoy
I'm so jealous. Wish I could rediscover them all over again and get that feeling of warmth, love, fun and all those other great emotions on discovering this beautiful music for the first time. But the great thing is that it still hasn't waned for me all these years. The beauty of great music.
Great description.
I can't believe this masterpiece....
brought me to fucking tears, you brilliant bastard!
We danced to this at our wedding. In my memory, your hand is still in mine. Forever. I'm sorry.
can't believe this still brought tears to my eyes in 2016 - great song and video
BrandonD timeless indeed it's definitely in my top 5 pumpkins song period
damn rite DAMN RITE see... see what I did there
2018 for me. On the eve of s12 of Trailer Park Boys I decided to get drunk in honour of Jim Lahey, that beautiful drunk bastard. Then drunkenness led me to this. My all-time favourite pumpkins tune 🤩
My favourite song of theirs by miles. It's stunning
me and you both
and me too
Yes
This is starting to become my favorite song of theirs. The more i listen to it the more I appreciate this masterpiece.
As usual....i forgot that they are my favourite band, until its sunny and I'm playing music outside while drinking lol. Still stand by my statement, best song they've ever written. Never heard a band with better choruses.
So dark and so beautiful. An assault on the senses.
i agree
If only this song was come out today,
it would slay everything on the charts.
I doubt it. All but a small fanbase would know about it. provided that it would be made at all.
I dedicated this to my wife on our 27th anniversary. It’s a perfect song.
The best Smashing Pumpkins' song of all time ! 🎸🎤🎧
The bridge part really hits me deep. I wanna cry out, ended up in tears. There is always something about this song. It keep in my heart. I was 14, in 2000. I'm 33 now. God, I'm crying now.......
There was a girl I secretly loved, long ago. Back when I listened to a lot of SP. This song was a sort of reminder of that. I decided to reach out again, many years later now. I saw a facebook group of a remembrance of her death. That hit like a truck. Who wouldn’t be the one to stand inside her love.
Oh man, that is so sad. Life is so unfair and cruel, hope you find someone just as deserving.
So so sad, i am very sorry..
I got to open up for The Smashing Pumpkins and a play a show the same night after and I remember stepping on the Monitor at when i was 20 years old; this was like 6 years ago and I just remember having so much fucking appreciation and admiration that I got to have the honor of opening up for them. Changed my life, opened up alot of doors for me and to this day when someone tells me they dont like the pumpkins or have never heard of em; If i have the cash I will usually buy one of their records for them on their phone with my credit card and then I get the hey man thanks for fucking introducing me to these guys, they saved my life in more ways than one. When I was addicted to oxies for 2 years and then turned to smoking Black tar heroin I remember listening to Stumbeleine off of Mellon Collie and I litterally decided one night in my 15 passenger tour van that I'd fucking had enough. I put The smashing Pumpkins on loop, curled up in the fetal position with my headphones and I fucking ended my addiction with with what I call The Gatorade, advil, Benadryl, weed and smashing pumpkins rehab. l I felt like he was fucking right there telling me hey man, its time to WAKE THE FUCK UP and MOVE ONE TO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS and get yourself out of this hole you've been digging for yourself before its too fucking late, craziest hardest 2 weeks of my life but Billy pulled me through it. I'm firmly convinced. Been clean for 4 years now, no relapses, and living life the way it was meant to be.
G M. H. Music heals
I ran into billy corgan just recently at his Sacramento show we were both staying at the Sawyer hotel. Ironic
Congrats on getting off the hard drugs, dude. Keep it up! 👍
Right fucking on brother 🙌🏼
What band?
"For the first time, I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for,
Your every waking move and sound in my time,
I'll wrap my wire around your heart and mind,
You're mine forever"
Seriously just one of the best love songs ever written
Always been in the background of my life , anthem like really as I watch this again . I think this is so underrated. It could be one of the most underrated. Just saying
Definitely one of the best songs ever
I hate that I've never met a person who knows my favorite band
Yeah it's all Weeknd, Miley, Ariana, and Demi now. Back when music was good we had Pearl Jam, Nirvana, SP, and all the grunge.
I remember that I met lotsa people, back when Ogrish Forums were actually a thing.
They shared my love for Brutal Goregrind/Pornogrind metal
no thats the worst
+Dani Dennis where are you from? I just don't understand that you're in a region without appreciation for the Pumpkins. you should relocate to an area where they appreciate good music!!!!!
haha good luck i tried to get my friends into it and they didn't like it
I play this over and over. Epic song.
One of their best songs ever
This song constricts around my heart. Like it literally causes heartache.
I feel the same. It's painful to not be with the one your heart yearns for.
M.B. So true. It wraps its wire around my heart & my mind...
Still my fav Pumpkins song. ♥️ Brings me to tears.
Crying reading some of these comments . Glad this song has touched so many of you the same it has me ❤️ 20/20 stand inside your love
In the 90’s I’d hear 20-30 year old classic rock music that stylistically sounded outdated even then. Fast forward to 2023 and I’m blown away on the rare occasions I hear this played on the local rock radio station-It doesn’t sound like a song from two decades ago. In contrast to what alt rock sounds like today, many SP songs seem invincible to the passing of time-like an immortal sonic vampire from the future
For 20 years I've listened to this song, it's as beautiful now as it was all that time ago, just brilliant
It truly never gets old or tired. Timeless classic.
To me, this is the most visually stunning video they've ever done. It's really special when you can get imagery to intertwine so perfectly with the emotions and lyrics.
It's a great love song on its own, but paired with this video, it feels like a modern Greek tragedy.
@@DaSpoonyBard Indeed it does.
Sharon Osbourne hated the video so much that she ended up quitting her manager position with the band
This video is Zero on steroids. I love it.
Done by my mate WIZ. Legendary director.
God, I remember being in Las Vegas when this album came out and the Virgin Megastores had huge promotional posters festooned all over the place promoting the new MACHINA album. Hard to imagine a time when record companies still had big marketing budgets for rock acts.
Now the big budgets are for cell phone & tech companies ads - Verizon, AT&T, Apple, Google, etc. lol - welcome to 2018!
I still get the same chills, 22 years on! Masterful! 💜
I wanted to use this song for my wedding that never happened. I sometimes listen to it but it always brings back a bit of an ache because of how devistalingly romantic it is to me. I cant get over the feelings I have when I see this music video and listen to this song, one day, I hope, I'll be able to use it.
I hope so too.
Bless you dude.. i am sure you will X
@@dchoney9435 thank you kindly ❤
@@matthewspooner8720 Thank you for your kind words. I kinda forgot I made this comment because a lot has happened since then. I still dont have anyone but sometimes it's good to be by yourself.
Keep the dream alive,ever.Hi from Brazil !
This song is a masterpiece that speaks to my soul. ❤
"Like a sonic embrace, 'Stand Inside Your Love'
Seriously, who would dislike this?
Patrick Cruz FuK no
Not everyone has a taste for unique music.
656 dickturds.
Who ever they are. They wouldnt be the one u love
I used to sing this song to my daughter when she was a baby. I know its reflective of the bond between lovers, but it's always made think of the bond between mother and child. However you interpret it, its still a beautiful song.
Erato IsYourMuse that's cool. Finally, someone else relates the lyrics to a love outside the typical romantic relationship. I always thought it was about God and His chosen children.
@@Enough.Said.I thought I was the only one
billy is a fucking genius
When i was young and heard this song for the first time, i was mesmerized. This is one of the most beautiful ways for describe love. It tells exactly what you feel when someone means everything. Billy Corgan it's a truly poet.
My best friend since 3rd grade died of an overdose 3 years ago. Today was his birthday. He was the one that introduced me to sp music when we were teen. Missing him extra
that's brutal, so sorry for your loss. hope the music can provide a little comfort
This song makes me suffer in the most beautiful way.
You know what's so cool about The Smashing Pumpkins is every song and every album that i've listened to is so different from anything else, they are so unique in what they do I don't think there is a band of my generation today that can compete with what they have done for music in general. To me along with some of my favorite artists today Billy Corgan is one of the greatest songwriters ever, its great to be apart of such a legendary fanbase like what The Smashing Pumpkins have.
all true indeed , blessed yr heart
One of the pumpkins best albums hands down.
2024 that bowed guitar. The song is sublime perfection
Everyone commenting looks so damn young. This songs from when I was in high school. Makes me feel a sad nostlagic...and pretty damn old, lol. They don't even make videos like they used to. Everything was weird and beautiful. Now it's all cars and partying, glowsticks...different type of shit. Alternative was more like pop at the time...Everyone was on some Metallica kick..I don't even know what half this stuff is anymore. At least technology let's everyone young and old enjoy things from the past. Songs still good all these years later.
I was a new fan when this came out, in high school, too. This song manages to bring back nostalgia and be relevant today, too. I'm glad new fans are finding it. :)
I saw my first pumpkins concert in 1998, I was fifteen years old... to qutote George Carlin: "I'm an old fuck..."
You should be glad that some of today's youth still listens to good music. Being 17, maybe 15 kids in my entire school know this band.
I feel the same way when I watch Smashing Pumpkins. They were my high school experience (also I feel the same way about Buffy the Vampire Slayer).
I miss when videos were interesting to watch.
God, I feel old now.
Damn dude, you're comment is poetry
Twenty years ago when I met my wife, I wrote her a love letter and included the lyric "...your home is here, within my heart". That changed our relationship from simply being bf/gf to something a lot more serious
@qw z 🙄🙄
It’s songs like this which make you realize just what a talented and unique songwriter Billy was and still is. I find this song to be almost unbearably sad and desperate, yet at the same time it’s a powerful and reaffirming celebration of love, and is in that way uplifting and hopeful. You just don’t get songs like this anymore. Billy will go down as one of the all time greats for melodies and lyrics like this.
Hi I recommend an indie song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
Billy's voice is haunting..he is one of a kind...
It's so funny that when he first says "and for the last time" it sounds like he's aware he's been singing back to back whenever you replay the song lol
The video is based on the illustration Salome(the beheading of john the baptist) by french art nuevo illustrator Aubrey Beardsly.
Aubrey worked prodominantly black and white and drew strong graphic shapes of the movement. This SP video captures all the visual elements of his art work while telling the tale of the last days of john the baptist.
Good to know dude, thanks so much
