This is one of the best songs ever written.
personally while this is good, i love Zombie myself
I'd be honored if some Smashing Pumpkins & 90s fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal perforrmance of "1979" on my YT channel in tribute to the great writing of Billy Corgan and the iconic status of the song. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe.
This song really is some of his best. Corgan has such a unique voice.
The new CYR album is interesting. I thought it had 4 or 5 solid songs. Not the best in their library, but definitely solid songs that deserve more views. It's mostly synth driven though so if you aren't into the whole synth thing than you'll probably hate it.
Unique like nails on a chalkboardd
I'd be honored if some Smashing Pumpkins & 90s fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal cover of "1979" on my YT channel in tribute to the great writing of Billy Corgan and the iconic status of the song. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe.
A shitty voice
I wouldn’t say his voice is unique. In fact, I think that is a weak point even if he manages it in a superb way.
He is a genius guitarist and composer.
Its super hard to be a parent after having a tough childhood and look at your kids and think "I was this age when..." and its also incredibly healing at the same time but it is very tough. Disarm is so beautiful.
You got this!!!
Seeing Billy Corgan in my recommended feed gives me a warm feeling inside
GABZITO!!
Yea especially when he’s chillin with Epstein
When this album came out, I was an 11yr old girl in Australia. My parents had just split and I hadn't seen my dad since and mum was too high to give a shit. This album got me through my entire teen years when Eminem was king amongst my friends. Id listen to it every night on repeat. Im 35 now and I'm still discovering meanings in lyrics and the sound still gives me goosebumps. This song and the entire Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness is part of my soul forever. Thank you for everything ❤
The tone of that guitar holy shit
god damn Billy Corgan is such a talent.
I can actually hear the bells.
And the cello!
Extremely underrated song writer, He's a rock legend period
One of the few true musicians that are pure, honest and down to earth. Thanks Stern show for another great interview!
IDK, I think there are a great many musicians who fit all those qualities
Not too sure about down to earth lol, Billy is weird, and i disagree with some of his spirituality shit, but he's my number one favorite artist
A poor excuse of a musician
IMMEDIATELY when I saw "Disarm on Stern", I just KNEW he was gonna introduce the fuck out of this beautiful song and make the whole thing even more sentimental.
This is why I love the Pumpkins: You can really feel Billy's passion in his voice! I can't say that for many other bands.
So well said
He needs some sun but don't we all
It breaks my heart when children aren't loved by their parents.
Back in the middle of the 90s, I was forced to stay in bed, four endless months, due to a car accident. I asked my elder brother to buy me Mellon Collie, and I spent all these days, lying in bed, listening to it again and again. When I finally got better, I went to the local record store and I purchased a copy of Siamese Dream. First time I listened to Disarm I cried, don't know why it happened, I didn't know anything about Billy's family troubles. It just happened. Even nowadays sometimes I found myself crying, while listening to it. It gives me goosebumps, masterpiece!
Whenever I hear the lyrics “cut that little child”, it breaks me down. 10 years ago those lyrics wouldn’t have meant nothing to me, but now that I’m a father of two boys, I can’t imagine how any parent could abuse their children physically or emotionally. I’m not the best father in the world I’m sure; but I never want to be remembered by my children as a parent who never let my children know that they were loved. A child’s mind is fragile and the things and bad habits that you direct towards them out of selfishness can damage them forever. Fathers, love your children. Tell them and show them that you love them every chance you get, even if it’s just doing little things. Thank you Billy Corgan for keeping me on the right path as a father with your music..
The Smashing Pumpkins were one of the bands that epitomized the 90's sound. Raw. Haunting. Visceral.
As soon as my little girl was born and they laid her on my chest I looked into her eyes with tears of joy and love and that night after recovering from giving birth I cried because I then realized what love was. How could both my parents not have this type of love for me like I did and do for my daughter. This song is hits home.
I was driving to work this morning singing along at the top of my lungs to "thru the eyes of rubi". Masterpiece after masterpiece.
Love it. That album came out the month I was born. So glad I found it 19 years or so later
My fave pumpkins tune of all time, an absolute classic!!!
Nice. That and "Here is no why" are my two favorites.
" no one is asking for the truth "
Love that song. There is an acoustic version on the MCIS deluxe edition in case you haven’t heard it.
I think Billy's guitar skills had always been underrated btw.
Pretty easy stuff to play but it's beauty is it's simplicity
Indeed, an absoloute shredder.
He’s got one of the most effortlessly amazing right hand techniques imo
@Luke yes bro 😃 even before SP the band play shoegaze pop new wave with shred melody bcpz Billy is metalhead
@@Liscome easy to play not create. FYI he played most of all the instruments on the album as he was frustrated with the other band members not showing to record and when they did it was slow too many retakes etc. He's a perfectionist . D'Arcy wasn't on the recordings at all just toured.
One of the emotionally deepest songs ever written imo. Doesn’t matter how many times I hear it it kills me and it takes me back to when I first heard it and all the subsequent times I listened. Billy Corgan is far underrated.
Having survived abuse, this song has a whole new meaning. Amazing. Best version.
Isn't Billy Corgan such a legend? One of the greats
Billy's musicality is simply insane. We are blessed with not only some incredible lyrics, but also with amazing and haunting music that is so entirely unique that it elicits an emotional response. I am fortunate to have grown up with the Pumpkins.
Howard knows how to set the tone and bring out what he wants from people. Not to underscore Billy's amazing talent here. It's just been nice seeing Howard use his gifts and influence to bring more truth into the world, instead of focusing on what sells.
Glad he's able to keep refining himself while staying true to who he's always been. I think that's the best kind of growth.
I remember when I was in high school in the late 80's and early 90's, I was only into Metal and punk rock...then I heard the Pumpkins and it open my eyes to a whole new genre of music that I have loved since.
Billy you're one of the most inspirational artits of all time. Your music is just gorgeous and your lyrics even more. THANK YOU
So many good memories. 90s as a young teenager Pumpkins where the best to sit around drinking with mates and at party’s!
I’ll never forget hearing this song for the first time. I must have listened to it a million times over after that. When I first learned to play guitar, I learned on the acoustic. And this was the first song I ever mastered on the guitar. Still an all-time favorite.
One of the best song writers of the past 30 years
Such an unbelievable song and moving performance. So simple and powerful.
By far his best song. Thanks Billy.
Their best album. This song is one of their best and I always listen to it on the radio and when music video tv was around in the 90's I would always watch and enjoyed that video. Brings be back.
Your call... no question for me their best is Mellon Collie
My pick for greatest Alternative album ever. It sounds as good all these years later. Still moves me every time I play it.
Older I get, more emotions it pulls out of me
Thank you Billy - a million thanks for your beautiful contribution to humanity.
siamese dream was and is one of the best albums ever.
Maybe I'm just saying this because I was a teenager and everyone seems to say this about their teenage years but the 90's was golden for music.
I play it,read it,cry it and saw it million time ... never stop to play it Billy
Namaste
I cried so hard when the girls on the cover of Siamese Dream recreated it. I swear all of our other emotions are just preparing us for nostalgia.
seek therapy
I really enjoy the relationship Stern and Corgan now have. Two of my favorite voices joining.
Top 5 Smashing Pumpkins song. My favorite is Stand Inside of Your Love. Mr. Corgan thank you for honesty and musicianship. Bless your heart. Stay safe and be well.
Stand inside your love is my favourire as well great song
Simply amazing.
Great performance Billy! Chills every time dude!
Pitchfork wrote a review calling Billy Corgan completely irrelevant in 2020. I think what they meant to say was Pitchfork is completely irrelevant.
He's not completely irrelevant, but as much as I love and adore the SP you can't deny that they are not talked about nearly as much as their other contemporaries. Cyr is pretty ok ], but nothing to be marveled at. The problem is that what they released in the nineties was perceived as so good that, unfortunately in the eyes on many people, the band has never been able to quite capture that high again.
Still I do not wish for relevancy with any of the bands I listen to. If it happens great. All I simply wish for is music that I perceive to be good. Hopefully on their MC&TIS sequel album they will be able to resurrect what mad the band so glorious back in the day.
Funny how reviews are often just projections.
Who the hell is Pitchfork?
Who's pitchfork?
@@avenwhitt9474 lmao word
Disarm and Cherub rock are my two favorites from Smashing Pumpkins.
This song never fails to break me every single time. Love you, Billy! 💕
SIAMESE DREAM---UP THERE W/ OK COMPUTER AS ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIME.
Above OK Computer
Its good to see our admired rockstars are coming back on the scenne even on new platform embracing the new normal and helping us again get through this tough times❤️👍🏻👌🏻
I never get sick of hearing Billy Sing he is so dam good that sometimes his music will make me cry and I don't understand that and I hide that pretty good but the music just sends my whole soul and body to a point of extremely touched and happy so
Saw them live, second row. Can't say I'm always smart with my money, but this time it was a great investment. Cried my eyes out during a couple songs. SP has been with me during some very hard times in my life. Thank you Billy.
Wow what a talent. Love that extremely unique voice that can summon a huge amount of emotion with the lyrics. They say that everyone has a double? Hard to imagine this being repeated.
Saw the Pumpkins at Milwaukee Summerfest, probably late 90's...I can't even remember exactly. LOL This is probably my favorite song from him, and it is awesome to see him still able to play and sing it so well. Billy Corgan has always fascinated me, both with his music as well as his unique views. It would be so much fun to kick it with him at a good old fashioned Wisconsin BBQ sometime! (as in lots of beer)
Awsome billy.....we miss u and love u your former greenview neighbor's
Fave SP song. Hands down.
Always a favorite
Such an amazing artist
Amazing gift to the world. Was a privilege to see the smashing pumpkins in my home country of south africa over 20 years ago. Hope you can your here again soon
That guitar sounds so beautiful...
Deeply moving to this day.
You can see how he is emotionally connected to this song-
I remember seeing him play this song live on TV, when it first came out. A string broke on his guitar, and he just kept strumming so hard. You could feel the emotion pouring out of him.
One of those performances I'll never forget.
Add this to the list of truly amazing acoustic performances that have been captured on the Howard Stern show. Phenomenal performance by Billy. Floored.
I saw him perform this song live in Atlanta last year w/ the Pumpkins and i had chills the whole time. Amazing talent is Billy and I agree with the other posters who said he's better than ever at the present...
Billy is the man
Thanks Billy:) Your music for so long has lifted my soul, whether it was embracing and facing sadness or welcoming the freedom that happiness brings. Peace and love everyone x
At home, solo, acoustic guitar and sounding amazing. Is and will always be my favorite singer/artist. 🤘🏽🎸🎃
Howard is the best, I'm fortunate to have met the man and his wife a few times in a professional manner and always had the same experience, very warm and down to earth people.
Fantastic
In a pretty sh!tty year where I've shed tears for multiple, talented sports stars, actors and musicians, i force a smile knowing that we still have some amazing talent from my childhood out here making new music and banging out the hits 20-30years later.
2020 really makes you realise how spoiled for live music we were... If we ever get back to that level of luxury you won't hear me complain about ticket prices again 🤘
my heroes of the 90s 🤘
Yes!!!
That was Badass!!
Disarm has Always Been a Powerful Song, and This Version with just Billy and his Guitar took it to another level!!!
Just Sayin
Always impress on live performance...even i Heard it thousand times...it still touche me every time ... Billy is so true when he plays it...
Such an awesome song!
Such a great artist I’m glad he is still with us 🖤
Incredible. Beautiful. Pure.
Yay I love Billy on the show😁
Being from Chicago Smashing Pumpkins were a favorite band of mine and still are. Love this version - Godspeed Billy Corgan and thank you for sharing your gift. 💕🎸
He has a cool unique rhythmic way of playing.
I'm with you Howard the part of the Song also brings Me to tears great, great Song.
I came from the same sad background thats why i loved this song back in the days.
Another song that saved my life. The whole album was comforting and cool back in the 90s.
Amazing song writer !!!!!! Great guy also tells it like it is even calls his own self out over the past not many people ever on up to their mistakes if they had any , thanks Billy for the great music !!!!!!!!!!
Corgan is a great composer. I'm very happy to find him in this channel
Awesome Performance!
He's such a brilliant songwriter - they were easily my favorite rock band of the 1990s
This brings me back to the 90's, fuckin love this band
What an absolutely talented musician and to be so humble at the same time!!!
Majestic song as always
One of my favorite songs..
Listened to this entire interview on the road yesterday while doing deliveries. Amazing stuff.
I agree! Billy is so honest and authentic. He's always been my favorite interview guest.
Still one of the best live concert I attended. Saw them twice before the pandemics. We learn to appreciate musicians so much no that we can’t attend live music
one of the best songs of the 90s
Send chills up my spine. Absolutely amazing.
This is so good..Great lyrics and song structure..However the guitar playing is amazing, sounds simple but the dynamics and the timing are perfection. Oh, the other video where Billy speaks about interviewing Van Halen is very cool. Thanks Howard, been a fan for over 40 years!!!
Beautiful! Has always been one of my favorites ❤
can tell billy is really putting in the voicework, hes able to sing better live now than he could when he was releasing this in the 90s
There's an operation that singers are getting (Steven Tyler had it) that is actually improving the vocal range of aging singers. I wonder if he took the scalpel dive?
That’s because of the auto tune available now
no way, he literally sounds like a little boy in this video.
Its horrible
Wow! One of my favs!!! Love this album!!
There are only in the grand scheme of music a variable handful of truly unique musicians....Billy is one of them.
He sounds great!
Yeah this song man, cuts real deep. Im glad for it actually, not that it solved anything, but I wasn't alone, and yeah maybe him writing it helped me understand them a little.
One of the first. This is a very good tune!
