#SmashingPumpkins #Reaction #SiameseDream
This is a total vibe man… What does this song mean to YOU??? \m/
The first time I heard this song I knew it a special one.
I heard this a couple days ago. I fell in love with this song right away.
Still get goose bumps every time I hear it.
I remember the first I heard it when the CD came out..still emotional hearing it after all these years... seeing it live was special
The Pumpkins were a breath of fresh air after the hair band period. I was young, carefree, and every experience was new...This song is perfect in every way and Billy is a deserving legend.
First time viewer here. Your reaction will be the same every time you hear it!
The first time i listened to this song i simply cried. One of the best song ever Ciao
I cried to Soma when i first heard on this album
My all-time favorite Pumpkins song (and I love a lot of them). From the first time I heard it, it hit me in the heart. "When I can, I will". "Mother weep the years I'm missing". "Shut my mouth and strike the demons". Phenomenal lyrics that made me feel things when I was 15 in 1992 and still make me feel things when I'm 46 now. I love Billy's voice paired with the music in this one more than any other of their songs!
Any friend of the pumpkins is a friend of mine.. my favorite band to ever walk the earth.. more please! Love your enthusiasm
Thank you so much! Glad to have you! \m/
I feel you.
Coincidentally, I first heard this song just days after a breakup with a girlfriend I had for 3 years. I didn't even realize I wa listening to the song because I was in such a state of depression and just lost in my own thoughts until the broken almost pained guitar tones came through during the chorus and that somehow snapped me out of it and I was like "holy shit, what is this song?" So I looked it up and it's been easily top 5 songs of all time to me ever since
I’ve been in the same boat man, with a recent failed relationship and pretty messy breakup it’s been a rough couple of months, this is now one of my favorite songs ever too though so it’s nice to see a story similar to mine with this song, hope you’re doing well now though friend. ❤
@@Randomyoutubeuser722 I hope you're doing well too, thank you!
Siamese Dream is a perfect album
This album was 25 years ahead of its time, truly amazing work.
Except that there hasn't been anything like it even 25 years after it's release lol. Just a really unique and special album, I personally wouldn't say it was ahead of it's time tho
250 maybe
It's right in the time that it was supposed to be. Today's music has been soulless and sterile for a long time now.
That weird noise they get out of the guitar every now and again was because Billy bought this old guitar that had a damaged pickup. He thought it sounded cool so instead of fixing it he implemented the sound into this track.
Edit: please do more pumpkins..they have an enormous amount of music that you can enjoy. So much nostalgia. 1979 is a famous song and it gives me nostalgia for a time I wasn't even alive for
Ok...have to comment. This has always been a fan favorite. You nailed the pumpkins feel of distorted guitars. One thing that makes pumpkins songs great are how they ebb and flow from soft to heavy and back. You get gravely voiced corgan with angelic voiced corgan in the same song. You have signature distortion along with a corgan solo.
One other aspect that I love about the mighty SP is how many of their songs sound just as good acoustic. Check this one out and see if you get the same vibes. I know when I listen (especially when i am hearing it live) when you get to the crescendo of corgan belting "can anybody hear me, I just want to beeeeeee me" that is such an emotional vibe. It's a great singalong tune live as well.
As one final note. My musical tastes require me to listen to the entire album. Siamese dream is the perfect pumpkins album. Not a single bad tune. I would say track 7 and 8 are my two favorites back to back (soma and geek usa) of that album. But then you get mayonnaise at track 9 followed by space boy. Now without knowing the background of spaceboy you might initially dismiss. But he wrote basically a love song to his brother that has intellectual disabilities. Maybe listen to mayonnaise and spaceboy back to back to get a slightly different vibe from your initial reaction.
Ok...rant over...take care brother...
Awesome!!! Peace and Love my man.
I thought your post was great 👍
I remember listening to this song when I was 14 years old. Me and my buddies just got done with a long day of skating. We smoked a joint, went back to my place, ate god knows what, laid on my water bed, I popped this CD in my surround sound CD player that I had in my room, this song came on and we all melted. Mind you, we were all baked out of our minds so this hit sooooooo fuckin hard man. It was a religious experience. Hearing this when you’re high it’s like melting into your soul. Best song I’ve ever heard hands down.
I was stationed in the UK when the Shoegaze sound was big in the early 90's. When this album came out I thought "Holy shit this has a heavy Shoegaze influence to it's liquid wall of guitar fuzz" and I absolutely loved it.
@@2000jago en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoegaze#:~:text=Shoegaze%20(originally%20called%20shoegazing%20and,%2C%20feedback%2C%20and%20overwhelming%20volume.
@@2000jago Nope, thats a real genre. If I remember correctly its called that because a lot of the bands who had the "shoegaze" sound stared at their shoes while performing
"My own eyes"....hence, mayonaise....my top favorite smashing pumpkins song.
do you know the real story of the name (its funny)
Immediate sub after the scream for the guitar crash in. 👍
HAHA! Happy to have you! \m/
Your yell when the distortion kicked in, the reaction is pure gold, probably the same reaction I had when I heard this song for the first time.
HAH
The pumpkins have been my favorite band for almost 30 years. This album (and MCIS) formed my adolescence. I've heard this song literally hundreds of times and it never fails to give me goosebumps. Billy's broken guitar is so iconic. If you haven't heard Soma by the Pumpkins, I'd recommend. It's got a similar lullaby vibe that leads into the wall of guitars. Also, I really love your interpretation of the song. You are incredibly insightful and articulate. While Billy writes lyrics that are widely open to interpretation, I think you hit the nail on the head with this one.
holy shit what a great channel to find and only 300 subs im blown away
So glad to have you! \m/
Best true reaction i've ever seen stay healthy and enjoy live✌️
Glad I clicked this video, great reaction. You actually get it. Long comment coming as SP are my favorite band. I was eleven years old in 1993 when I was handed the cassette tape for Siamese Dream. SP have been my favorite band ever since. This is my favorite song of all time, but I really love most of Billy's stuff. He didn't really miss between the Gish - Machina II time period (1988-2000ish). The b-sides to each album are all amazing too. Billy has written like a million songs man. There are tons of great songs afterwards too that are labeled SP, and solo Billy Corgan stuff. There is also the band he did after the initial breakup, Zwan. Zwan was really, really good. Mary Star of the Sea album is awesome and you should check that out. There's also a bunch of live Zwan and unreleased stuff that we're hoping gets an official release one day. Billy has said that Machina II will one day be officially released as well. His first solo album, The Future Embrace is pretty good too, but is electronic/industrial-ish. Zeitgeist and Oceania are good. Not close to Siamese Dream or Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness level though but what is lol. The man can only create so many masterpieces. SP are often overlooked and that has always bugged me. I love the big four grunge bands(Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains) and other bands popular at that time like STP, Weezer, Green Day, NIN, Radiohead, etc. but I've always held SP just one level above all of them. The songwriting and guitar work coupled with Jimmy's drumming is just something else. Anyway, thanks for doing this video and giving this band the appreciation it deserves. Subscribed.
Thank YOU for the gorgeous comment! Glad to have you.
Thanks! Smashing Pumpkins are one of my faves back in the early to mid 90's when Pearl Jam (to me) was a bust. I could put on this album or Soundgarden and rock out. The first song on this album "Siamese Dream is "Cherub Rock". I strongly recommend this as a very solid rock anthem. One of thew best IMHO.
One of my Top Three favs ;)
Pearl Jam was a bust for me too -glad to see I’m not alone. lol
@@123marlanamars High-five to you!!
It seems to me the lyric “when I can, I will” -he is being pressured to give a piece of himself, he cannot give, at the moment. It is not that he is being rude, he just doesn’t have it within himself to interact the way others think he should. He just wants to be himself.
It is obvious it bothers him he is not able to give himself the way others want. It is something he wishes he could change, but why can’t he just be himself and they accept. It is like a battle between his spirit vs. his flesh (if this makes any sense).
Love your take!!
He’s in the closet but years to be out.
@@helloharper 🤔 that does fall in-line
I think the entire song is about depression and trying to feel better. "Mother weep the years I'm missing, all the time can't be given back." People telling him to do things and act this way is not going to do anything: "When I can, I will."
I remember buying this CD along with the stone temple pilots CD Purple at the same time
Hell yeah that's the good stuff 👌💯
Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
That there... perfection
4400 songs in my iTunes collection and this is ranked #2 in terms of most played. It's definitely #1 if you count all the countless times I played it in the 90's before iTunes was around. I never get tired of listening to it. It's also my favorite to play on the drums.
Best band in the world even now
Fun video. Porcelina is probably their most quiet-loud-quiet-loud type song. Kinda Mayonnaise on steroids but less sad sounding.
With the guitar tone, he’s using a 50s reissue strat I believe? It has these lace sensor pickups that just provide this high gain. He runs that through a big muff pedal, the pedal that the smashing pumpkins put on the map. The pedal quadrupled in price after the album was released. It gives it most of the fuzz you hear. He also puts this through a Marshall amp, which according to billy is one of the few amps that can handle high gain mixed with the big muff pedal and not sound terrible. It’s an incredibly hard guitar tone to replicate and drives me insane to this day. He would also layer 8-16 guitar tracks together, which gave songs a massive feel.
As with the meaning of the song, billy threw together a bunch of one liners, but really started to resonate with the lyrics years after he wrote it. Mostly about trying to fit in.
So many great songs on Siamese Dream. Hummer is one that is right up your alley. Great soundscape and meditative. React to that one!
The name of the song apparently is a typical BC’s play of words, and is said to mean „My own eyes”
Rad reaction bro this song rulz, 🏝 my boy Jamie Cook just passed away here in New Zealand and this song was the last song at his funeral ❤ it was accompanied by a montarge of his life with us sk8 Rats as kids then his family as a man, Every time for evermore will this song pull on the heartstrings and bring tears of joy remembering my mate and the times we all stared with him. Rest well my friend ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing this!
There was a specific guitar they used that would feedback when you stopped playing it. It is one of Billy's prized possessions
I discovered this album two years ago, as a junior in high school. Mayonaise was actually my introduction the band, which convinced me to listen to their music, starting with Siamese Dream. I loved the blend of heavy rock, dreamy indie atmospheres, and wistful acoustic music. It has very much been an immense part of my life's soundtrack, especially as a young adult with a waning childhood. I don't think any other album, even by the Pumpkins, is exactly like Siamese Dream.
The only album that even gets somewhat close to the sound of Siamese Dream is Nirvana's Nevermind. I say that because both had the same producer (Butch Vig), and both singer/songwriters of their respective bands were going through similarly rough times. They were also both breakthrough albums, and both albums likely had songs about Courtney Love on them.
I got Siamese Dream on cassette in 1994. I was 12, and my Mom turned me on to it. She was always clued in to new music.
You're right about the "tape" aspect of this recording. Big, fat, analog two inch tape. No cut and paste, digital manipulation or other studio trickery. When Billy Corgan showed producer Butch Vig the guitar tone he wanted, Vig said, "there's no way. It's too muddy, we'll lose so much top end in the mix, etc." Corgan said, "well that's the sound we want." Seemed to work out pretty well. Awesome record.
Lost my buddy to an aneurysm when we were 16 and this is the album I was listening to and anytime I hear anything from siamese dream it pulls me back to that time
Got this album from my parents when I was about 13... got me hooked on their sound and guitar music in general for the rest of my life.
Years later, playing in various bands, and always tried to put something of them in my guitar playing. For me, together with Mogwai, the best bands ever.
The guitar whistle is so iconic
siamese dream / best pumpkins album ever.
For Martha it's just beautiful song about his Mother
it's true -- Siamese Dream has the best guitar sound of all time
I first heard this song at a Barberito's (like a Chipotle) a couple years ago. It was obvious that it was Smashing Pumpkins but I wasn't familiar with this particular song so I Shazam-ed it (not sponsored by any of these brands lol). I LOVED it right away but I went home and listened to it again. I'd have to say it's probably my favorite Pumpkins song now. Such a vibe. Amazing sound. Great lyrics.
That's great analysis! This came out when I was in highschool, so it really is part of me. The lyrics and the production are pretty deep and you tapped into them pretty well right off the bat, nice work.
The entire album …The soundtrack of my youth!!!
Billy Corgian voice is intoxicating
V4 Big Muff Pi. That was the fuzz pedal behind Siamese Dream. I think the original pedal is difficult to find and is expensive. The sound has been recaptured on the EHX op amp big muff pi, which is a pretty popular pedal these days.
I've always loved those screeches he got on this recording. I read an interview back in the nineties where he described his pickups basically as crap. Everytime he'd stop they let out that sound. So he decided to use it as part of the song and just go with it. And if just sounds so iconic on that album. I believe that same first the "Siamese Dream" guitar was later stolen. Also a story on that it has since been found and it was returned to him.
Dope song... Have seen a handful of their shows.... First was at William&Mary when I was a freshman.... The love has never faded
This is the best reaction video I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot of
Thanks for watching!
Meant to also say this may still be my favorite rock album of all time
when music grabs you its the best hug ever
Great react! Love it!
Thank You!!
hmm this song was on mine playlist for before sleeping , calm mine brains down after listen loads of black metal , lol , good times , and recently its on beef , prefecto
I listened to this song while on drugs in pain recovering from surgery. Been a favorite ever since.
this IS my favorite song, it defines my life
This is such a great song. As a big fan since around ‘96, i can tell you that I’ve heard that this song was already written and rehearsed and they couldn’t think of a name for it & I think James suggested calling it Mayonaise so Billy just went with it.
I know I'm late, but at 3:40 when they go into the solo...looked like you were about to tear up a little. Its okay bro, that's the song we all let it out to
Absolute favorite reaction to this song!!💯👍👍👍
Best album of the decade. Great reaction!
Gish
My fave SP song, some reason, Bleeding Me, my fave Metallica song, are on the same level for me. Even though, I was into both bands from the 1st albums of each. And seen both bands on their 1st tours and ever after.
Dude you’re awesome
Love your energy
Awesome reaction and discussion.
Have you heard anything off of their Machina album? The Everlasting Gaze is heavy as shit. If you’ve already heard that one, i would suggest a reaction to “I of the Mourning” or “Heavy Metal Machine” which is also insanely heavy.
All time great song
“Inkless” next please 🙏🏻
SP >
You should listen Smashing Pumpkins song Behold! The Night Mare
You need to hear this on a real stereo system. Totally different experience.
One of my favorite albums, that album was so tight. Suggestion, do some Tool.
Paul check out Porcupine tree.
This guy gets it👍👍👍👍👍
Just found your channel, I love the content brother! If you like the mystical/technical aspect of radiohead and the grunge style of pumpkins then please please PLEASE check out the swans! Helpless child by swans is a super long song but god the buildup is insane and I think it’s right up your alley! The song takes me to another world. Thanks again man, you got a new sub
So great to have you! Love the recommendation \m/
Love that second guitar chord of the verse... it's kind of rotten but so lovely.
Retro helicopter attack 🐼!
Yes!
Rhap (looks like rhcp…lol)
Make it happen someone!
Great choice
Do the SP song 'Rocket', unless you already know it...
MyOwnEyes
You gotta just listen to Siamese Dream front to back. The whole album as an album should be listened to and marveled at. It's one piece.
I love you brother
Starla. Check it out asap!!!!
react to By_Myslf by Linkin Park or P5hng Me A*wy of Linkin Park too, both from the Reanimation album.
Sorry, one more. MCIS is their rock opera. But Siamese Dream is when corgan becomes the lyrical mastermind. So much of this album is so raw and personal. Disarm is about abuse. I mean Today. Most casual listeners hear today and think uplifting song. "Today is the greatest, day I've ever known." Well the entire song is about corgan contemplating suicide. Call the lyrics satirical or tongue in cheek, but the depth of his writing has always been what attracts me to him as a songwriter.
Ok, this time I am done.
BAH!! Drop knowledge any time.
A massive Smashing Pumpkins fan who doesn't know this song?
I think unfortunately a lot of people just listen to the hits/singles of bands now instead of albums. Hopefully this wonderful dude checks out all the albums, he's missing out.
Thanks for hearting the comment, I just watched this again. Probably the best reaction to this I've seen. Like I said in my other long comment, I've been a fan since I was 12yrs old back in 1994 and it's awesome to see people getting into all the great "grunge/alt rock 90's bands" like SP, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, PJ, Nirvana, Radiohead, Weezer, etc. We were so lucky growing up in the 80's and 90's. Thanks again man, take care and hope you're doing good.
Thank YOU! For watching and the kind words.
This is so painfully contrived.
This track makes me want to go jump into a mosh pit.
"Smashing pumpkin - Today" please🙏🙏🙏
Your mic is too sensitive
Nice channel setup! only 840 subs!? I'm surprised bro continue your good work :) I sub to your channel if you do a react video to Bad Omens - If i'm there :D please
