@@jonathancurtinpretty sure James had a big hand in coming up with this song. It’s one of the few songs attributed to Iha. The chord progression, at least. As far as I know, Corgan did write the melody and the chorus.
@@jonathancurtin He's talking about the guitar tuning. James' guitar is tuned to an alternate tuning so more open strings ring. The melody is written around this guitar tuning.
Richard Hellmann created it in 1905. His wife, Margaret Vossberg and her parents owned the delicatessen where Richard worked when he came to NYC from Germany but in 1905 his started his own store and his Mayo egg spread was so popular people were buying portions to take home. Richie had 85% oil in his bread wipe allowing it to not spoil for a longer time.
On September 11th this year, I had the opportunity to see the pumpkins in Dallas. While I was initially disappointed by Billy’s vocal performance, my disappointment was compounded by the absence of this song, which i was hoping to hear. I appreciate your efforts in strumming it out for us. I discovered your channel earlier this year and was immediately captivated by your unique approach to video production. I have since watched the majority of your shorts. 😂 I extend my best wishes for your speedy recovery and look forward to your videos in 2025. Thanks for noting the tuning as well, its an odd one, to me at least. Cheers bro 🍻
OoOhhh Hoo!!! Oh wait, Nevermind, sorry. For some reason I read: "Now you play pretty good guitar Jacob, but give LeftClaw their due. I bet a banjo of gold against your soul, to say I'm better'thn youuu!" But schitt, that wasn't at all what they said.
So this song is the whole reason I started following you on here. I saw a video from a while back you did, about hearing it for the first time, and I was like “this guy gets it”. We must be about the same age(im 40 now), because the entire Siamese dream album, the song Mayonaise being my favorite, was such a big part of my young life, as it seems to have been for you too. Every note and every word of that album is etched upon my everlasting soul. I’m immediately taken back through my life every time I hear it. Thanks for the tuning! I didn’t know that. I play some guitar and bet I’m going home and tuning to it after work to play mayonaise. Thanks soul brother. Hope you feel better.
I believe you’re a bit younger than I am, but all your videos are as if we grew up together… in the same house. The feelings you express are EXACTLY how we felt when listening to these songs for the first time. I wish I had realized how great music was back then. I loved it, I just didn’t realize its days were numbered. Edit: and yes, Mayonnaise is one of my favorites also. When Siamese Dream came out, my roommate got in my car with me one day and it was in my tape deck. He just shook his head and said, “I don’t know how you can listen to the same album over and over and over again.” 😂
Hope you feel better brother! Would you consider Mayonaise an instrument? Edit: I’m 32 years old. Mayonnaise has 2 N’s except for the pumpkins song. I just learned that today after getting frustrated with autocorrect
hey. i just wanted to say im a rly big fan of urs. I don’t know anybody with the same music taste as me so that’s why I love watching ur vids. also nice gutair playing!! as a bass player i think ur a rly good musician. ALSO THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST SMASHING PUMPKINS SONG
Was it always hard to find someone to play this part while you did the other part? Like, you were the only one that could do both well? Where were you in 95, bruh?
You play that song like its an old friend whom youve shared life with. Beautiful 🤘
James Iha is a genius for coming up with this tuning. I've always loved his songs.
Uhhhhhh Billy is Smashing Pumpkins. Wrote all the music

One of the best guitar songs of the 90s
What is the name of the song?
Mayonnaise - smashing pumpkins
Mayonaise is such a perfect song. You play it so beautifully and with such feel!
Gorgeous. That song still reminds me of the hopes and dreams of my youth. Upload the whole song please - you have done it justice
My favorite SP song also. That album is a masterpiece.
Everytime I hear this song I just close my eyes and take everything in.... So beautiful
This song is the sound of an uncontrollable smile with tears. Devastatingly beautiful. It will always take me to somewhere else when I hear it.
Found this song through you originally and now it's my favorite of theirs. Thaks for sharing the acoustic version homie!

You're a heck of a guitar player, Jacob. I'm a banjo player myself, and I appreciate a good picker when I see one. Awesome 👍🏻
