I think that we were robbed of seeing where Melissa would have gone with the band, cause her live performance style was SO dynamic, it really matched the energy of the music more than D'arcy's, honestly. And Billy might have even let Melissa play on the albums, haha.
I will make an exception for the current bass player, as he is the son of Peter Hook from Joy Division/New Order, so he gets a pass from me, too, haha.
Great reaction! I agree with you about Darcy....she was an important part of the band and they have never been the same without her! Love your reactions!
First reactor I've seen react to this (totally superior) version of the song. Caught it on mainstream TV during prime time on a Friday night back in like '95 or '96 as a teen and it blew my damn mind!
Not often I can say this but I was there! 17yo me was near the front near Darcy. I'd seen the band at Wembley Arena the previous night and this was a bonus gig we decided to see last minute. Much better suited to their energy.
I always enjoyed the deep cuts from the Pumpkins much more than their famous singles. A special Tip would be: Gossamer, a Song that never made it on any Album. If you never heard of it, search for it on RUclips, there’s a phenomenal live Performance of it. Gossamer is a behemoth of a Song, 30 minutes long with some Parts reminding me of Pink Floyd, the Finale is my favorite Moment I’ve seen between Billy and Jimmy just rocking out! Highly recommended!
Love it. Can't beat a bit of live guitar rock, some squealing and some chair bouncing. 😁😁 You're gonna have to do some live Rainbow or Deep Purple or something. 1979 is that song that's like it for a lot of bands. Extreme was the same when they had the big ballad hit with More Than Words that was nothing like 90% of their other stuff. Midnight Oil's another one, most people only know Beds are Burning because it's the big radio hit that broke them worldwide but great as it is they have a hundred better songs.
lmao I've never seen someone have so much fun listening to the pumpkins. It's nice to imagine them watching this and being all "awww heck yeah :3" (I mean they should already be doing that, this performance is wild!) 1979's a cool song but yeah, it doesn't really represent their range. I wonder how many people skipped to it on the album and got a surprise by what comes after
Great reaction!! We were lucky enough to get into the free show at Metro in Chicago back in 2022. Still sounds amazing. You should do 'The Everlasting Gaze' or 'Rocket' music video from them. 'Muzzle' is my favorite song.
hey there red love your reaction to the pumpkins one of my fav ever bands.can you please react to my other fav band manic street preachers and the song a design for life which is imo the best song from the 1990s.hope you are doing well.big hugs
Oh goodness....if you liked this, you NEEED TO react to "an ode to no one" live at the metro from their "final show". It's THE best performance I've seen from them, and I've seen a lot of them!!!
As a SP enthusiast from the beginning you're 100% correct '1979' is by far one of the most overrated songs in existence and not their apex and though I love 99.9% of the discography I absolutely don't like 1979... The album version of this song is one of my favorites. This (double) album is the last of their best though. The later albums are okay, but I can't sit there and listen to them all the time like I can the first 3 and the EP Pisces... Appreciate the reaction...
Thanks! Would you consider doing throwback Thursdays?? This was fantastic so much good music in the past #redheadedneighboe #bestreactor #beautifulcountrygirl #redsaemy
@@mattmid7012 1st 80s for me would be I HATE MYSELF FOR LOVIN YOU Joan Jett and KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF Georgia Sattilight you know how Red loves that vocal cry
@@texassendero4901 Nice. You know what, the only Georgia Satellites song I know is the Battleship Chains one. I don't know why I never delved further because I really like it. Well, I guess I do there was no YT then! Hmm, let's see off the top of my head for the 90's I'd go with something by James, just a great British band, maybe Ring The Bells. 80's I'd have to go with my teenage favourite band, Iron Maiden - I'd have to spend all day deciding which song though. 😂 For the 70's I'd go Stranglers - No More Heroes
@redheadedneighbor love you're doing some 90's alternative! The Cranberries, Counting Crows, Oasis, Sublime would be awesome! If you never listened to The Fugees, their songs would make great reaction vids too! ❤️👩🦰
It’s invigorating to see someone enjoy this version of the song as much as I do! God the end is so sick.
This is my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song. I really appreciate your reaction to it. Thank you!
It's so good!
yes i get goosebumps all over everytime i hear this song.
An opus magnum in a sea of opus magumn's. A heartfelt favourite... always ❤❤❤
I have fallen in love with you based on your pumpkins reactions and your obviously stunning looks. You are so correct about 1979.
The live version of this song in 96 encapsulates everything special about the Pumpkins during their peak. Never gets old
Good music from the past to educate today's youth on where rock really came from. Your GRANDPARENTS!!!❤😂
You say D’arcy, but I got to keep coming back to Jimmy. He keeps driving songs to the brink but can hold it together. Top 5, top tier rock drummer.
JIMMY🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Animalistic and so Emotional. LOVE HIM

I agree, Melissa was as good if not better than D'Arcy. She was also an amazing back up vocalist, both with Hole and The Pumpkins.
This raw emotion and honesty is why we love watching your reactions.
😂
Love it. And who doesn’t love Billy!
Great reaction! I agree with you about Darcy....she was an important part of the band and they have never been the same without her! Love your reactions!
Seen them play this song live last summer 🔥
"Soma" live from the early-/mid- nineties probably my favorite, but it's hard to choose
Finally someone entertaining to watch on youtube
First reactor I've seen react to this (totally superior) version of the song. Caught it on mainstream TV during prime time on a Friday night back in like '95 or '96 as a teen and it blew my damn mind!
Please more Pumpkins reactions! Love this
Greatness, brilliance, Everything this band has made is brilliant, they always deliver a homerun !
I'll have whatever she's having! 🤣

@@HelloMisterJAMWAH whoa!
Yes. Ur so right about 1979. The depth of the other material is incredible.

Thank you for that. I’m nearly salivating over that! I don’t know if my heart can take 30 min! lol. I’ll check it out!
I love your enthusiasm for there vibes!! Just like I do lol
🔥🔥🔥
My favorite punkins song will always be cherub rock
💚

No doubt they were on fire at this time. I feel lucky to have experienced it.
You SHOULD a feel lucky! I’m so jealous
MCIS is the greatest album of all time
Absolutely love your enjoyment of the pumpkins.
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks Red ❤❤❤❤
Hugs!

"Quiet"... "Porcelina"... "mayonnaise"... so many... even the very "ruby"
"Rocket"... "hummer"... it's not a short list...
(I still loved the Pumpkins with MadM, but D'Arcy was special indeed. My two cents lol)

Melissa really added a new dynamic that is ignored. She rocked like crazy.
I feel the same way about bullet with butter and today that you do about 1979. Its annoying when people only know those songs
The catalog is so deep
I’ve been a Smashing Pumpkins fan since 1995. And yes, I agree about 1979. I like the song, but it’s nowhere near their best work.

Good idea Tex. Even if it was just once a month say.
@@mattmid7012 Yeah not every week but it would be great for the younger folks to tie the past to today
@@texassendero4901 Yes. Could also do some really cheesy eighties songs and call it Throw-up Thursday as well. 😂

1979 is really my LEAST favorite song by them. Glad we agree!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🎃 Love your music choices, but 1979 will always be their best! ❤👩🦰
I know it seems to be their most memorable one for sure
@redheadedneighbor most memorable for a reason Red! One of my all time favorite songs! ❤️👩🦰
@redheadedneighbor love you're doing some 90's alternative! The Cranberries, Counting Crows, Oasis, Sublime would be awesome! If you never listened to The Fugees, their songs would make great reaction vids too! ❤️👩🦰
@@AdamBazille yes!!! Absolutely
For me it's the 2nd least favourite of the album/s. I HATED "Cupid de Locke"
Spread love not hate
