Unfortunately my dad never changed and the last time I spoke to him he cussed at me repeatedly over a simple problem. He's never apologized for the years of abuse and he has said he never will, believing he was fair because he wasn't harder on any one of us more than the others (3 kids).

    I remember during my college days I was working security for a Lolapalooza concert and I really wasn't into rock music at all, so I really didn't enjoy almost any band or song that I heard nearly all day. But I finished my shift right when the sun was setting and as I was walking toward the parking lot to my car the Smashing Pumpkins started playing this song. I couldn't even see them playing but I had to stop and listen. I stood all alone on a path behind the stadium and I just listened until the song finished. I heard a very powerful message in this song and I didn't know who the Smashing Pumpkins were at the time but I certainly know who they are now.

    Billy Corgan's range as a composer is nothing short of astonishing. He can write the angriest, bilious songs, but also sad, melancholy, introspective chefs-d'oeuvre in the same breath. He can lean composition on any kind of guitar, or a piano, or strings like here. He can let Jimmy Chamberlin do fireworks on drums, or else replace him with a rhythm machine. At any rate, the tapestry of SP's masterpieces is marked by emotional profundity and maturity, and unapologetic ability to live a rich inner life and feel the full range of emotions and spiritual experiences. Even thematically, the range is startling. From powerful songs about childhood and adolescence, such as Disarm, all the way to mournful reflections on death and loss, such as For Martha. Always amazing to rediscover the mighty Pumpkins.

    As someone living with depression, I'm listening to all the songs I listened to around the time of my diagnosis many years ago. A lot has changed since then, but these songs never will. They are a constant. The feelings the evoke will always be the same. Life goes on, and I won't say it gets better quickly because that cannot be applied to everyone, but even at your lowest you're still worth more than the things you tell yourself.

      As someone who also has had severe depression all my life, inattentive ADHD, and generalized anxiety… Yes. When I look back at where I was emotionally even just 5 years ago let alone 30 years ago in the 90s, it’s like night and day. I never realize just how much work went into getting to this point until I try to explain it to people. Then the realization of just how bad it was and all the trauma that any normal person would never tolerate hits me like a bag of bricks to the head. I’m horrified by the place I was at mentally at that time and I’m so grateful I’m not there anymore. I’m proof that it takes an incredible amount of work and patience, but it can be done. Somewhere, somehow there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

      +Destiny Webb Sometimes is good to remember how you've felt, for a while. But feelings can strengthen your character or break it, so you should be careful which type you endorse. I love both SP and NIN but I mostly listen to upbeat music because I have a hard time taking in deep/sad emotions and that's OK. That means I'm super sensitive or a psychopath. One or the other :D

    • @DaarkDestiny
      @DaarkDestiny Před 8 lety +26

      iridescentraindrops Haha, no I think it just means we all have a deeper side that feels emotions that are deemed inappropriate or unacceptable, which everyone experiences. But I absolutely believe a little melancholy every once in a while is just fine because it indicates the fact that we are dealing with hurt, frustration, anxiety, and fear. And those emotions are part of the human condition to me. We just have to work through them and not let them consume us. If we can't work through them, we might need a little help, and there is nothing wrong in my mind with reaching our for help :) I love humanity, and I don't believe therapy always has to be a psychiatrist or psychologist. I believe friends and family who are supportive are just as good in dealing with many cases of depression unless it's a chemical problem. But I absolutely believe you are right, emotions can strengthen us and make us more understanding and empathetic people. Or they can make us stagnant and keep us from growing because we are stuck in our self fulfilling prophecy. And you are right again, it all depends on which we choose, and it really is a choice, it's just hard to admit it :).

    While Corgan's often cryptic lyrics lose their effect over time, "Disarm" is one of the Pumpkin songs where the lyrics are just as likely as the music to be lodged into your memory forever. It's an epic song, but not in a way you would expect. Bells and orchestras make for a beautiful background, but Billy and his acoustic guitar maintain just as much presence. As if reflecting a small man with big problems, he's more likely to effect himself than anything else is.

    My first memory of this song was when I was homeless at 15, my parents had just kicked my out of the house for being gay, spending my first night in a park under a tree, trying to make a bed/nest thing with my school backpack and my duffle bag, and weeping until I had no tears left. I still can't tell you if this song made that night better or worse since it was still fresh, but I played it on repeat until I fell asleep, woke up the next morning, hid my duffle bag in a bush, grabbed my backpack, walked to school, and pretended that everything was fine. That night, my childhood died, and Smashing Pumkins was there to hold me in the darkness

      The 90s were incredible for music. 😵 I'm primarily a Death/Black Metal listener, but I also loved a lot of Grunge and Alternative Rock when I was a teenager back then… I make it a point to never love something solely based on "nostalgia", so I totally agree with you. This was excellent music back then and it's even better now with age! 💀
