James contributes more than you can imagine: he wrote "mayonnaise" in its entirety, wrote the lead lines over much of "Today"'s verses, wrote the bridge to "Hummer" and several others.
@@Jules-cv3tq😅lol this is near perfect how progressively worse its getting. Especially among blonde females. Pretty sure they're on the virge of their own language rn
Melissa is so creepy in a wonderful, rock and roll kind of way. When she gets behind her bass on those heavy songs she just becomes this demon! Man, I love her!
The Pumpkins were arguably the first "real" band I got into when I started listening to proper music in 2006. I started-out with Siamese Dream which I hardly play anymore, and it wasn't until 2022 that I finally appreciated Machina. It's now surpassed even Mellon Collie as my favourite Pumpkins album, and I can't believe it took so long. I also never realised just how amazing a drummer Jimmy Chamberlain is until now.
Why am I so addicted to watching the live performance of this song..the sound engineering was terrible and the audience are all just politely sitting in chairs except one in the front row who you see rocking out for a second as the camera pans to the audience ..I just love how raw it all comes across..superb
There's not very many good live performances of this song... Seems like the studio version is by far the best iteration of the song, which isn't always the case. But this take was pretty solid, even if the crowd looked lethargic.
I think the Machina albums are seeing the re-evaluation they deserve, and a lot of younger people who are just now getting into the Pumpkins are latching onto those above the others. They were always my favourites, especially Machina II. I think Slow Dawn is the best song he ever wrote, but this one is up there too.
Truly only thing I've ever heard get close to pumpkin sound is tool/...but they are still very different... But when it come to the whole dark pscadelic stuff pumpkins do it best !!!
His voice is an instrument. If you really take time to listen to the nuances, it is very unique and passionate. The same applies to the studio recordings. His singing has a rare character that some would not understand.
i never knew why everyone hated Machina, did anyone actually listen to that record? those melodies are amazing, the styles between songs are completely different, very artsy and avant-garde yet very appealing on a pop level. absolutely hands down ten times the record Mellon Collie was, the only difference being there was no Bullet with Butterfly Wings or 1979 to keep the Fair Weather fans happy.
I remember constantly listening to this song and the album when I was courting my then highschool sweetheart. I gave her rose shaped and scented candles as I did not believe in flowers and how it wilts quickly. Oh how teenage angst and love can make you do things, ha! And yeah, I wholeheartedly love the pumpkins.
Aw que hermosa canción 😌☁️, de las canciones más hermosas y favoritas de mis amores The Smashing Pumpkins 🖤👏🏻que gran banda, los amo desde los 90s en mi adolescencia 💖🏫 😊que buenas bandas, me entra la nostalgia !
I'm not going to get into an an argument withe the Pumpkin-Heads: but, i am of the generation who watched SNL in 1993 with shock and speechless awe when then Pumpkin's performance left us doumbfounded. Though this might be the best song Billy ever wrote.
good to see Billy smiling and having a good time. Melissa is rawking out and looking good. Jimmy is lost in a sea of drums as usual. and James, i miss James. he looks like an Asian David Bowie in this performance.
The most beautuful love song ever written
brightstar1212 Certainly one of the best love songs ever. It's so soaring...
so so true
brightstar1212
Agree!
And it always leaves me wanting more. Can't tell you how many times I've played it 3 times in a row
Definitely my alltime favourite lovesong.
@@standinsilence mines ava adore
Melissa’s bass sounds absolutely huge on this. Love it.
power of the precision bass... once I played one I pushed all my others to the side
such an underrated song. This has to be one of the top 5 songs he ever wrote. Music today couldn't even make a song this good
How bout now?
@@lomarsweed6604 it become worse
After covid19... music and art is finished...
It’s 2022 & this song is IMMORTAL!!!
2023 still immortal

The drums are so incredible on this song. So intense and really tells the story.
James contributes more than you can imagine: he wrote "mayonnaise" in its entirety, wrote the lead lines over much of "Today"'s verses, wrote the bridge to "Hummer" and several others.
Mayonnaise was a collaboration between James and Billy
the Smashing Pumpkins are one of the better rock band of all the times !
Nice grammar
@@Jules-cv3tq yeah everyone in the world must know that lame english language
Which is poor af actually

This is the most beautifull, and possibly the greatest song he has ever written.
Most definitely my favorite SP song, and it's really not even close.

Most underrated song ever. This is an epic love song! Classic.
Sixteen years and still being the best love song ever
Jimmy's a badass
One of the best guitar solos of that era....album version was built for an open highway
Machina/The Machines of God is one of the most underrated albums of all time.
This song is simply perfect.
That guitar solo makes my heart rate through the roofs.
The solo gives me the biggest chills
Blame it on James....
LOL..
But Billy starts soloing here and totally drowns out James e-bow solo.
Anyone know who played the solo on the studio version?
My favorite band ever.
Our..
Our
Our
In my opinion this was the best version of Pumpkins. Melissa was just such a great addition to the band

Ugh. One of the most beautiful love songs ever written.
Machina is so underrated...
I'd even put Machina ahead of Ava Adore (without mono remastered)..
It's such a good album. Loved it from the day it came out.

fuckin' love Melissa's movements while she performances.
Perfect performance of a perfect song.
i listen to this almost every day. It just reminds me how much i miss a girl so much.
Ya .... Mine's in prison. Everyone who says I can do better just doesn't understand .....
I don't want "better"
Melissa 😍😍
This shortcuts all my filters and goes straight into my heart. Intense Version blew me away. Drumming and Bass are Insane.
God that lady playing bass is beautiful
This song has aged well and seems stronger than at its release.
I like how Melissa is rocking out on bass and everyone else is like standing still. You can tell she came from a different kind of band.
Great :-) I like the fact you can actually hear the bass too.
Was that still D'Archy Wretzky?? She is a Beast Bass Player!! And sexy too!!
@@cowondeso it’s Melissa Auf der Maur. She joined after D’arcy left.
@@cowondeso she was playing with Hole before that
Love this song. One of the fave SP songs🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
From 🇵🇭
one of the best bands ever.
billy always shows how much joy the music he writes brings to him his escape is his medium and i know im forever grateful for that !
back to 1999... such a good memories...
Dude, that bass is bone crushing…
this song gives me the goose bumps...an incredible song ever written
Best love song ever!
This song.... just makes me wanna shed some tears. its beautiful and yet so emotional
that year 2000 i bought a crafter guitar, i used to listen to this song over and over again during my afternoon job-breaks
Stunning melissa !!!
John S .. I wholeheartedly agree.. It just floors me every time. Without doubt one of the greatest love songs of all time.
I just noticed that Jimmy 's drums set is AWESOME!!
This song soars like no other
I was never really a nirvana guy , Always a pumpkins guy .
2:54 James' Guitar riff is amazing!
Magic sound what a voice
Best line up IMHO
melissa auf der maur looks so beautiful in this live cover i remember falling in love
Melissa was one of the best additions to the band that SP ever conjured.
Best song on Machina! Great Video!!!
Beautiful song and, though I rarely like their stuff live, they do good here. James and Billy are prodigious.
One of the most amazing rock lovesongs ever written.. 'I'll wrap my wire around your heart' Where did that come from? Go Billy!!
I love this song. It's just a great song that kinda makes you think about life and love.
Yes, he is Jimmy... a fat Jimmy... one of the best drummers i ever seen
that bassist is jammin haha sweet moves
Aw que hermosa canción 😌☁️, de las canciones más hermosas y favoritas de mis amores The Smashing Pumpkins 🖤👏🏻que gran banda, los amo desde los 90s en mi adolescencia 💖🏫 😊que buenas bandas, me entra la nostalgia !
I could watch Melissa play the bass forever
Una de las mejores formaciones, Auf der Maur explota en el bajo.
She played bass no banjo!
I totally agree! Her bass just hums in there so sweetly.
***** Bass = Bajo (in spanish) / Banjo = Banjo :D
Great time ever in music industry alternative& grunge music
Hard to believe this was 20 years ago
Melissa’s bass sounds GREAT!
what amazing performers...
Favoritest love song ever.
Stand inside our l♥️ve...
You can ..
We can
Dolorosamente bella canción....💔🌹
I love this album.
Love this line up the most...again proving the :originals": are not always the best.
That bass tone is gnarly as fuck. Love it.
Absolutely. Dare to say, Melissa was technically better than D'arcy,
Fucking brutal song!!!
Tremendo tremendo mil veces tremendo
👍
choro vem lembranças
awesome song - says exactly what I feel
Billy scares me, but when he smiles hes so cute ^^
This is bad ass
would have killed to be at this show!
Eso es todo CHINGAOS!!! ARRIBA LOS PUMPKINS!!!
the bet of smashing int the world!!!!
A melhor banda do mundo, Billy Corgan eu te amo.
I love the way Melissa auf der Maur plays guitar. She like, leans back.
Or something. Idk. I liek it. Haha. I still miss D'arcy though. :(
The instrumental at 2:40 is EVERYTHING.
Great Performance i tell you. One of the few bands good on stage
I'm not going to get into an an argument withe the Pumpkin-Heads: but, i am of the generation who watched SNL in 1993 with shock and speechless awe when then Pumpkin's performance left us doumbfounded. Though this might be the best song Billy ever wrote.
@greenie85 i feel you. painful to listen to at times, but i can't help it. great song.
best SP line up. oh yeah!!
Mágica, me transporta a los rincones más oscuros del corazón, que impredecibles podemos llegar a ser...
I can hear her bass clearly despite the low quality audio, yep she's great = )
MELISSA UNREAL ON THE BASS OMG
good to see Billy smiling and having a good time. Melissa is rawking out and looking good. Jimmy is lost in a sea of drums as usual. and James, i miss James. he looks like an Asian David Bowie in this performance.
James Iha always will be the best guitarris that played on SP
traverse the skies
Puuuuuuta que paaaaariu.... muito som!!!!
amazing. such a beautiful song.
Old or new Pumpkins, doesn't matter, I love them both!
Yep that bass is awesome!
Either way, as much as Billy is taking whatever attention James had, that solo is awesome!
Melissaaa ❤️❤️❤️
The best music of Smashing Pumpkins!!!!
My favourite love alternative rock song!
