What I love about this cover is that it isn’t just a meme, this is totally a song that Smashing Pumpkins *would* cover. It’s like it came straight out of a *slightly* alternate universe.
Interesting what if. Even more interesting, though, would be what if ZZ Top did Where Is My Mind? Or Metallica. Or Alanis Morissette. Or Black Sabbath. If we're talking other universes, the possibilities are endless. As interesting as it may be, however, personally I'll stick with the universe in which it's a Pixies song. Pixies do Pixies much better than anyone else.
I love that little "Corganism" when you go from distorted almost screaming voice to this angelic "breathy tone. I was like "yup, this is Billy alright"
Holy fucking shit! You are seriously talented, i can't imagine how much time and effort you put into your craft bro. I've been jamming out to your covers for about 2 hours now, you are fucking awesome!
Exactly. Billy Corgan found a new level of fame by lifting The Pixies in a manner Nirvana never came close to. The Toadies were a more interesting ripoff of the Pixies than Billy. This comes from a kid who had never heard the Pixies when he heard Today and subsequently fell in love with it.
Yeah, but did you not notice that this dude is not Billy corgan, so saying the pumpkins were influenced by pixies, based on this video, doesn't make a big pile of sense
No ones giving the guitar tone and style enough credit, even before he opens his mouth this sounds exactly like the pumpkins playing the pixies! everything is perfect!
The first time I heard this song, I thought that it had come out in the mid 90’s. I was shocked to find out it was from the 80’s. You can clearly hear listening to this song, and others by the Pixies, that they influenced a lot of early to mid 90’s bands, including the Pumpkins.
Could pass as a genuine cover of the original as well, beside being a Smashing Pumpkins version. You really put a lot of energy and character into the vocals in particular.
Love this song. Love the Pixies. SP was at one time my most favorite band. Feeling like SP missed an opportunity to cover this song, but you've done it for them. Really awesome job.
This cover fucks. This is probably my favorite song, and, Smashing Pumpkins or not, you did a beautiful job of capturing the on-the-edge-of-chaos energy of it. Wonderful work.
The original has a very, VERY special place in my heart for undisclosed reasons. This version is pure perfection, thank you for making it. It means more than you'll ever imagine.
Someone made a Mashup of another artists song, and where is my mind, and you mind find some appreciation of it: ruclips.net/video/aeJDi_EM_Yc/видео.htmlsi=OAd5ZfVNOxLYLiOi
I love this song bc it reminds me of my late mom. She loved visiting Hawaii, and one of the last times she visited, she tried seeing fish at the reef. I lost her to dementia... Your cover of it is phenomenal!
Soon as I saw this title I knew this would be good. The original song just seems like something smashing pumpkins would do. Well done. I want the SP version now!
This is very cool totally nailed the mix of the two bands. Take the percussion of the pixies but clearly corgan guitar sound two of my favourite bands but especially the pixies. Got to see them twice when i though i never would with kim deal truly incredible both times
I love it when you try to elaborate this with new approachment, less hyperbolization than Green Day's which sounds too "Today"-ish but still yeah it's just awesome man!
Yeah, this just sounds like Pixies with some octaves thrown in and a fuzzier tone. Not quite enough shoegaziness and power in it. I mean, very well done and far better than I could do, but it doesn't quite sounds like the pumpkins covering pixies as much as it sounds like the pixies trying to sound like the pumpkins, if that makes any sense. And there's a dash of pop-punk in there or something with the chorus.

You could tell me this was off of the "Clockstoppers" soundtrack and I would 100% believe you, it so perfectly captures the late 90's early, 2000s.
Youre a slightly alternate universe
@@carefulicarus7393not vocally (I think he's spot on with Billy Corgan) but I see what you mean about the music.
Interesting what if. Even more interesting, though, would be what if ZZ Top did Where Is My Mind? Or Metallica. Or Alanis Morissette. Or Black Sabbath.

As interesting as it may be, however, personally I'll stick with the universe in which it's a Pixies song. Pixies do Pixies much better than anyone else.
Yeah, it's not that much of a stretch.
ah yes, smashing pixies, my favourite band
😂
Otherwise called Saturday night
I also like their backup band Pixie Pumpkins
my favorite pastime

Overlay this song and “Today” and I’m pretty sure they’d snap together like two legos.
Exactly. Billy Corgan found a new level of fame by lifting The Pixies in a manner Nirvana never came close to. The Toadies were a more interesting ripoff of the Pixies than Billy.
This comes from a kid who had never heard the Pixies when he heard Today and subsequently fell in love with it.
@@darfdoodle6104 The Toadies... wow, they were so perfectly great at anger. I love that album.
The fact that this still sounds like the Pixies shows how much influence the Pixies had on Billy.
Facts!
Yeah, but did you not notice that this dude is not Billy corgan, so saying the pumpkins were influenced by pixies, based on this video, doesn't make a big pile of sense
@@spodoinklehorse sure, he played it in the “style” of them. You can mirror style. Also, Billy has mentioned the Pixies as one of his influences.
@@spodoinklehorse it could be based on the music itself rather than this video alone…but okay.
My thoughts exactly.
As a gen x-er who grew up listening to, and loves both of these bands, I have to say this is extremely well done! Kudos!
Same! Its a great (and 100% logical) mashup
No ones giving the guitar tone and style enough credit, even before he opens his mouth this sounds exactly like the pumpkins playing the pixies! everything is perfect!
If I hadn’t heard the original before, I would’ve thought this was a real Smashing Pumpkins song. You do such a spot-on impression of Billy
This sounds a heck of a lot closer to weezer to me.
@@rshone99 true lol, especially the drumming. sounds like a mix between smashing pumpkins and weezer doing a cover of where is my mind
@@rshone99 so its weezing pumpkins? 😄
@@rshone99 vocals remind me more of Sunny Day Real Estate.
It sounds absolutely NOTHING like Billy Corgan. What are you talking about
The first time I heard this song, I thought that it had come out in the mid 90’s. I was shocked to find out it was from the 80’s. You can clearly hear listening to this song, and others by the Pixies, that they influenced a lot of early to mid 90’s bands, including the Pumpkins.
The Pixies and Sonic Youth were both widely referenced as influences in the Grudge scene of the very early 90’s.
@@aaronsanderson7650 Yes, as well as the Grievance and Rancor scenes of the 2000s
I like your take on this
Well it was 1988 but okay
The Pixies were listed as influences in pretty much every 90's grunge band ever...
PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY
Could pass as a genuine cover of the original as well, beside being a Smashing Pumpkins version.
You really put a lot of energy and character into the vocals in particular.
This actually sounds 100% like Sunny Day Real Estate covering The Pixies but I’m completely fine with that. Great job!
This is the best cover anyone has ever done of this song period… regardless of what style it was done in.
Yep, it’s the sh!t❤️
Check out Placebo playing it live with Frank Black 🖤
As a fan of both, Absolutely perfect. You nailed it, very talented for real !!
The pumpkins often play covers live. I would be surprised of they have not already played this. Spot on impersonation
This makes me want to go listen to all of those bands albums again.
You are genius Sir.
Love this song. Love the Pixies. SP was at one time my most favorite band. Feeling like SP missed an opportunity to cover this song, but you've done it for them. Really awesome job.
The cover I didn't know I needed. Very well done my guy
Just thought of this combination. I´m very glad I´m not the only one. Sounds fire man! Keep it up!
So much talent, humbling really, keep it flowing and going, its an incredible run so far
Man you revived my appreciation for both through your fusion...great hormonic catch. Beauty....
Daaaaaaaamn bro. That was amazing....! Like seriously rivals the original...
I want more Smashing Pumpkins style songs!!!!
This is absolutely epic and deserves endless love!!!
Holy shit! One of my favorites songs being sung by one of the best bands ever. This is like some weird alt universe or fan fiction. Awesome job sir.
these covers are soooo good. keep it up!
Wicked cover! Two awesome sounds into one 😁🤘
So much character in your voice. Made a new fan today.~
This cover fucks. This is probably my favorite song, and, Smashing Pumpkins or not, you did a beautiful job of capturing the on-the-edge-of-chaos energy of it. Wonderful work.
Awesome as a huge fan of both songs and artists. Well done
The original has a very, VERY special place in my heart for undisclosed reasons. This version is pure perfection, thank you for making it. It means more than you'll ever imagine.
What are your undisclosed reasons?
I feel this. For me it was that the movie (I read the book later) Fight club found me at a weird time in my life
@@justinbrennan1326 probably lost virginity or did something illegal.
Someone made a Mashup of another artists song, and where is my mind, and you mind find some appreciation of it:

@@justinbrennan1326 Can't talk about it. First 2 rules.
Dude, no one ever tries to imitate the Smashing Pumpkins, I think you hit it on the head!
Silversun Pickups?
I was gonna say the same!
i was a bit skeptic before starting the video and i was well surprised !! great job dude !
I am so happy therea a full length of this. Dude absolutely killed it 🔥
If The Smashing Pumpkins made "Where is My Mind" they'd be hard pressed to better your rendition....Well done
Right? I said in another video that he sounds more like Billy Corgan than Billy Corgan. In this video, he just sounds better!
This kid’s a genius.
That's because Billy killed the band when he lost his shit.
I was gonna write that. ☹️
@@NohbdyTherewould you say he….lost his mind?
JC's drums would be superior to the programmed drums, but yes
Amazing job, my guy! Can’t stop listening
You may have one of the best re-makes yet.... Nice job.
😝🤘
I love this song bc it reminds me of my late mom. She loved visiting Hawaii, and one of the last times she visited, she tried seeing fish at the reef. I lost her to dementia...
Your cover of it is phenomenal!
Great cover. Sounds amazing.
Awesome! Two of my favorite bands

This is the mashup I didn’t know I needed!
I freaking love all of this guy’s content! His Deftones stuff is my absolute favorite
This was insane!!! Great job Mac!
I love this. Great job dude

Stumbled across this, two bands i loved over the years, and a personal fave song of mine, my brain had been fried and blended. this is amazing

Yup...yeah that did it, right there, earned you a sub my guy, f***in killed it
This is outstanding. Props to you sir.
I clicked on this as a joke and am now finishing listening to the whole song. As a fan of both bands, great job man! Spot on impression and cover.
I really enjoyed this combination!!!
Perfect! and i LOVE that Tele color!
truly awesome work man
A Bald cap could have gone a long way for this video. Great work with the song.
This is perfect great voice man
Sick dude. Terrific cover!
Soon as I saw this title I knew this would be good. The original song just seems like something smashing pumpkins would do. Well done. I want the SP version now!

Smashing Pixies, gotta be one of my favorite genders.
Absolutely phenomenal!! 👏👏
Im glad i just found this channel i hit that sub button real fast
Quality lad. Well done.
Really well done, great job!
This really works. Great job!
This is awesome mate, subbed 🤟🏽
Straight up banger 🔥🤘🔥🤘 10/1 would recommend. We definitely need an album of Deftone styled music.
Badass! Love this version!
The use of beats is so interesting! This isn't just a 1993 SP cover like so many others do, this has shades of ATUM on it too! Excellent work! 🌌
I love it when you try to elaborate this with new approachment, less hyperbolization than Green Day's which sounds too "Today"-ish but still yeah it's just awesome man!
Damn this was really good!
Mad talent! Hello from Spain! ❤
Epic work!
haven't played a song in a loop so many times since the mid 90s.
great stuff man
Wow! Amazingly done!
This works so well!
That was incredible!!!
Hell Yeah!! You just made my day!! God bless you son.
Wow , I would buy this version , great stuff .
You read my mind. Oh wait where is my… ok seriously love listening to you sing. Nailed it
best version so far
Beautiful!
Yeah man nice work 🎉
needs 25.687 more guitars to sound more pumpkinesque.

Nicely done. That makes the play list.
The vocal is excellent. A very well done piece.
Wtf man this is ridiculously good
This is absolute perfection
This combination brought a "Sunny Day Real Estate" vibe
Totally! I was hearing something like that but I couldn’t quite place it. Yes, “In Circles” specifically
Kudos for even attempting this.
My two favorite bands. This is rad
This was really good.
Just awesome!
