i used to fall asleep to this track from the siamese dream CD..... fuckin dreamy then just as i was about to drift off to dreamland... i'd be woken up to the wailing solo hahah
Soma = Sending Out Much Attraction. Lol but seriously i love and miss them all, the 90's Smashing Pumpkins were amazing. Soma, Luna, Quiet, and Mayonnaise
This is my favourate track ever... i love it, it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. So beautiful. SP should have quit when James Iha left.
Been far too long since I have listened to this band... loved them during my 20's in the 90's, was lucky enough to see them live on both the Mellon Collie and Adore tours... by the time of Adore though, while they were experimenting, they also started to jump the shark... Machina had moments, but by that time I was missing the Pumpkins that I loved. Tried to listen to the stuff done since Billy reformed them but it left me cold... Billy is the Pumpkins, no doubt, but the magic is missing. Going to give SD a spin as I go to sleep tonight to rekindle the love.
seeing this played live, along with seeing the pumpkins live in general, was one of the most incredible experiences in my life. this solo gets me every time.
This song is in my top 10 songs of all time. There is a screeching note in the solo on the studio version that could be my favorite note of all time. Gives me fucking chills. Amazing.
everytime i hear this song it brings me back to the years just entering puberty and discovering my romantic emotions. I can remember playing this on my sony discman on repeat til either the batteries in the player died, or the juice in the speakers. I couldn't even begin to tell you how many crushes I thought about listening this song. i also remember all the silly clash of nylon, polyester, denim, corduroy, and canvas that I walked out of the house with on a daily basis inspired by SP.
everyone probably knows that feeling when you go to see a band and you get goosebumps, its completely surreal, almost like you are not there? and you know you are witnessing something amazing... i had that feeling in 1995 when i saw them play this song and i can remember it vividly to this day 15 years later!
I don't know how I didn't fully appreciate these guys in the 90s. Don't get me wrong, I had all their albums but I guess after a decade of pure CRAP going back to them made me realize the masterpieces that their albums were.
I’m not a huge Of the smashing pumpkins they have a lot of good songs don’t get me wrong but they’re definitely not my favorite band but this performance is almost perfect I mean I challenge anybody tell me what is not perfect about this performance every single note is on point and then just take it so far out there and then just bring it right back in perfectly
I have a time machine every time I listen to stuff like this. I remember playing along to this when I was kid. I learned a lot of guitar from Billy and James.
They will when they play their 20th anniversary shows this year. And they're still amazing live (saw them in January - one of the best shows of my life). Have fun.
Oh my god. I have Vieuphoria on VHS. I haven't seen that video since I was in high school! OH THE MEMORIES! Siamese Dream is such an amazing album. I love RUclips.
This song is bringing me back to another time in my life....be4 i had my car accident....this is a great song and will always be!! Corgan is great....but Cobain is even heavier than heaven!!!
the genius of the solo is that it soars in the sky then it goes higher and higher again. I miis darcy's playing off beat, james crazy noises and jimmy owning the fucking shit out of the drums. Billy's alright too
+Jeremy Hoffman Yes, this is well known. I think the parts I mentioned you can really tell clearly though! I also hear a bit of Alex Lifeson in there (another known influence).
Beautiful song indeeed! Man I wish I was old enough to go to their concerts back then..I remember my brother and cousins going and my younger cousin and I sitting there on the stairs wondering why we couldn't come along lol
maybe he's more at peace with himself? he doesnt seem as angry inside anymore. Saying that Zeitgeist pretty much sticks it to the man =0p SOMA is perfection.
This video seems almost surreal nowadays. I mean, playing a 30 minute jam song like Gossamer could easily be called epic. But this..... It just blows your mind... THIS, is epic.

Corgan's heroics while Iha and D'arcy interlace dreamy wall of sounds and Jimmy does the Jimmy...that's what it's all about
one of history's greatest guitar solos, and one of the most underrated guitar players billy corgan
When i get sad...I get sad with SP
Like boss
i used to fall asleep to this track from the siamese dream CD..... fuckin dreamy
then just as i was about to drift off to dreamland... i'd be woken up to the wailing solo hahah

Awesome song, and a great performance. Billy's guitar solo is fucking jaw-dropping, that's a thing of beauty
seeing this played live, along with seeing the pumpkins live in general, was one of the most incredible experiences in my life. this solo gets me every time.
Soma, Thru the Eyes of Ruby, and Bury Me-- greatest songs of all time.
I love how well the contrast in this band works and is executed live.
This song is in my top 10 songs of all time. There is a screeching note in the solo on the studio version that could be my favorite note of all time. Gives me fucking chills. Amazing.

you can hear the fender sound in this one.. awesome solo as mentioned!
This song is bringing me back to another time in my life....be4 i had my car accident....this is a great song and will always be!! Corgan is great....but Cobain is even heavier than heaven!!!
the genius of the solo is that it soars in the sky then it goes higher and higher again. I miis darcy's playing off beat, james crazy noises and jimmy owning the fucking shit out of the drums. Billy's alright too
You are right - Beautiful yet somehow depressing = melancholy - name of next album
Billy Corgan + Jimi Hendrix style soloing = 4:44 - 4:55
+socialdef3
You actually hear this a lot as Hendrix is one of Billy's biggest influences if not biggest influence on guitar.
+Jeremy Hoffman Yes, this is well known. I think the parts I mentioned you can really tell clearly though! I also hear a bit of Alex Lifeson in there (another known influence).
thats really something magic when they were playing together in their best years.. new smashing misses something from it
the guitar solo at "So let the sadness come again" gives me goosebumps every fucking time
i would upvote this comment 100 times if i could
i love it how billy can make his guitar weep, but at the same time make it scream like nothing else
this song makes me shivering..
this song put you in that psychedelic mood
an EPIC music!
Magnifique!
purtroppo, solo un bel ricordo..
Billy sei un genio..
"Viewphoria" was the first live tape I ever owned. On VHS! Love this performance. Want to give it a big hug...
It's funny seeing Billy with hair! We got this last night in Denver. Amazing song
I never knew billy played the solo on that....best song ever!

Thanks for posting!
Its not too often you come across those songs that are so special but dont get the credit it deserves.
as hairsprayxqueen said:
most amazing vid. of off euphoria.
and one of the most amazing songs of all time.
this has been my favourite song almost a decade now, too bad i didn't get siamese dream til 2000. this nearly makes me cry every fucking time
maybe he's more at peace with himself? he doesnt seem as angry inside anymore.
Saying that Zeitgeist pretty much sticks it to the man =0p
SOMA is perfection.
Can't wait to see SP again! It's been waywayway too long.
I really love the solo in this one..
Loudest show i have EVER been to.
breathtaking
Definately my favourite SP song and in my opinion i think Billy has a great voice it's very unique and for me easy to listen to
Great Smashing Pumpkins song.
this is my favorite pumpkins song
This video seems almost surreal nowadays. I mean, playing a 30 minute jam song like Gossamer could easily be called epic. But this..... It just blows your mind... THIS, is epic.
yes, he is a sick guitar player... he does it in such a cool way
wow. amazing song.
I reckon this is the best song off siamese dream...the solo is epic
