both a billy and courtney fan. this cover is fantastic ! Needed to hear Corgan sing it TIL Billy co-wrote this song. It’s probably one reason why I subconsciously like Malibu so much. I always considered this song to sound very Billy, Adore style
Billy Corgan has already said it in an interview with Howard Stern. He said that he had worked on 6-7 songs out of the 15 songs that Hole recorded for the album Celebrity Skin. So, there are still 8-9 songs that Billy Corgan did not contribute to, including excellent songs such as Reasons to Be Beautiful, Northern Star, Awful, and Boys on the Radio. Thus, Billy Corgan co-wrote and received songwriting credits for 5 songs on the album: Celebrity Skin, Malibu, Hit so Hard, Dying, and Petals. That's it! You can listen to the whole interview here. ruclips.net/video/EidLpAxE9SA/видео.html

@@pelinkizilkus3884pues la forma de cantar de Courtney es como es porque cantaba grunge y era obvio que hiciera la voz raposa, le da un buen toque a la canción.
Being bipolar I can listen to this version without getting weepy eyed. I suspect it is due to thinking about all the trauma in Courtney's life causing me to pick the song apart. Being said, Billy Corgan is an excellent musician and songwriter!
Billy wrote the music, but the lyrics are obviously about Kurt Cobain and thus very personal to Courtney Love so I think it would be a little weird to have a guy to singing the lead.
It's been well known that Billy and Courtney are great friends. Just by listening to this song you know it's part Corgan and part Love.L Listen to Celebrity Skin - nuff said...

@@alandbs329 FALSE! All of the songs from Live Through This were written by both Courtney Love and Eric Erlandson. In an article published in The Guardian ''Ten Myths About Grunge, Nirvana and Kurt Cobain'' the music journalist Everett True wrote, ''6. Cobain wrote most of Hole's second album, Live Through This. (It's a myth) Kurt sang backing vocals on two songs. He wrote one B-side for Hole (Old Age), uncredited. And that was it.'' As for Celebrity Skin, Billy Corgan co-composed the music for 5 songs out of the 13 tracks on the album. The music for the other songs was composed by the members of Hole: Love, Erlandson, Auf der Maur, and Schemel. All the lyrics were written by Courtney Love. She even came up with the title: Celebrity Skin.
Fantastic cover, I had a feeling Billy Corgan co-wrote this song, and the lyrics really hit home. Love that the Pumpkins took this and made it their own. Wish Corgan sung a verse but damn, what a cover.
One of the few Hole songs I still listen to (if not the only one) which makes sense. I think I was a bigger Pumpkins fan than I was a Hole fan growing up. Def was more acquainted with their songs. B-sides, rare demos and all.
Fantastic song. Hole version- awesome. This version- awesome. Did Billy mostly write it? Doesn't matter. It wouldn't have happened without him. The important thing is that this song has, and will stand the test of time.
i agree with the energy and presence, but cortney's vocals grate on me after awhile. this singer has a way better voice and i think for this song, it just sounds better.
Ranny Torres: Unfortunately and sadly, that's not true... I love Hole, but the truth is: Courtney is not a musician. She looks like one and make others believe she is, but she is not. She's simply nothing without studio's apparatus, edition and post production effects... I've had to skip a Duran Duran show to attend to a Hole one, because they both were at the same time and I really wanted to see Hole on stage, and... Oh man, what a regret... Courtney was with a contracted band formed with great professional musicians. She even had a backup guitar player! - a guy who plays exactly the same parts as her, preventing any possible slip ups - and a backup female singer, along with one or two backing vocals. And even so she managed to screw up the songs! Oh sad memories... :-(
Well he may have written the song but it ended up being a Hole song and this is a thin insipid cover that lacks all the edges and power of the original just saying.

Would have rather seen actual responses to the viewpoint he presented. That’s just me, tho
I don't doubt Billy wrote a lot of the music on Celebrity Skin, or at least reshaped what they had already come up with. Courtney's ego is too big for her to admit it even if he did write most of it. Billy has a big ego too, so the two of them clash when they work together. I love Courtney and think Hole is severely underrated, but I'm also enough of a realist to acknowledge that she is not proficient on a technical level-the musical talent she has is completely raw. In any case, the lyrics are always hers, you can tell. She's distinct with her words. I like the Pumpkins too.
TBH Courtney Love is one of those people who have no real talent, but she is able to surround herself with people with talent which she then siphons off from. Like when was the last time Courtney Love made any good music? Not since Billy Corgan left her and Kurt Cobain killed himself.
+Alexander Luchejko what u said is exactly true, Courtney actually never knew how to write songs and now Im certain Kurt wrote all the early Hole songs esp live through this
Actually I saw an interview that Courtney talks about the help Billy gave her on the album and his name is credited on six songs of the album(on the music). People say that Billy composed celebrity skin and Kurt live through this and what about Hole's first album Pretty on the inside? I mean if you listen Pretty on the inside, Live through this, celebrity Skin and Nobody's daughter can cleary see the same lyrics style.Even the themes are very recurrent on Courtney's lyrics. And as far as the sound, they all have very similar influences.
There's no doubting that technically this girl can outstand Courtney Love. She is on key and doesn't sing flat like Courtney tends to do.... But I'll take Courtney Love's performance of this song over this pop version any day. Courtney has that rock energy that this girl does not have at all. Rock music isn't about being technically correct at all. Its about feeling and attitude....and that's what I love about rock music. The best artist are always different and they don't just conform to the theological and technical sides of music. Courtney was also a fan of and heavily influenced by Fleetwood Mac. Fleetwood had 2 vocalists .. Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie. While Stevie did lead vocals on all the heavily vocal and cool material Christine did the pop stuff....so Fleetwood had it all covered. Whether you're a fan of Courtney or this singer "Malibu" is a cool song written by the talented Billy Corgan, Courtney, and Eric Erlandson. Courtney's vocal and character adds to the cool...but no matter who you choose to like more it's hard to screw up such a cool song....piece!!
@@kristopherryanwatson you focusing on the instruments, lack of drums etc and not the essence of the song, the sorry and the vibe. No this is classic late 90's Corgan probably just before he wrote Adore
whatever, she leaves off the 9 for the Em but it's the same progression and essentially the same thing. and actually i did notice Corgan playing the Em9 at certain points anyway. it's basically the same as the original. not to a T, but close the hell enough for a cover.
It depends on your perspective. They can do it however they want, really. Cover songs would be boring if they were rehashed the same way everytime (even though Billy Corgan prob wrote this song which gives him the right to do whatever he wants).
Never thought I’d find a better version than the original but I think I just did. Ditto the below comments about Melissa’s backing vocal and wanting to hear Billy do a verse or two.
Erlandson’s edits to the chord progression are a MASSIVE improvement. The verse progression here is v boring and basic, and lacking the wistful quality that Eric’s version has.
Thanks for posting. I've always wanted to hear this song without Courtney massacring the vocals to make it fit better with her previous material so it wouldn't show that she's not really a songwriter. It truly is a good song. I suspected it was. But now I know
I dont think this song is supposed to be sung like this . Courtney had it , this girl has a better voice than courtney but it doesnt fit her, in this song.
Courtney and Billy are friends how cute!! I'm glad Courtney was able to leave the US behind and the nasty comments toward her so she could raise her daughter.
I can't help but add in Melissa's backing vocals in my head while listening to this
me too! :-)
yep
OreoBoomtown she really made the song
Same here!
...also take out the lead singer and put in Courtney. This song sounds average without her.
The lyrics, the prasing in the vocal melodies, it's clear that Malibu is one of Billy's babys... but thematically Courtney really sells the song.
everything about it feels like a song that Billy wrote as Courtney. beautiful song nonetheless.
Billy gave the answer,,, it was a collaboration. Stop guessing!

It has about the most Corgan chorus you will ever hear.
