    there is no way in hell i can pick a favorite pumpkins song.

    not even album by album.

    it just isn't going to happen.

    and i haven't heard all of the zwan record..

    god.. i'm really excited about the reunion too! Hopefully it will be in February like Billy wants...

    or maybe..

    billy said on his myspace that he has a surprise for all of us but we have to wait for it...

    you think.. pumpkins announcement?
    Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

    I love the Pumpkins but I'll admit I wasn't really a big fan of Machina. Siamese Dream is one of my all time favorite albums, I'd say it would be in my top five. Melon Collie is also unbelievable. I guess if I had to rate their albums, my order would be:

    1. Siamese Dream
    2. Mellon Collie
    3. Pisces Iscariot
    4. Gish
    5. Adore
    6. Machina

    To me the first three really stand apart from the last three. And if you don't have Zwan go get it! I'd probably put Zwan at # 2 if it were a Pumpkins album.

    Agreed.

    Favorite rocking Pumpkins song is "Muzzle", favorite softer one is "Galapogos"(sp?).

    I was always a huge fan(not so much anymore though), but I was never able to really get into Gish, a lot of people say it is their best, I just never really got it though, oh well.

    The first Pumpkins song I ever heard was "Disarm" and it blew me away. So Ill just use the easy button and pick that one.

    zwan is easy for me to pick, "jesus, I/mary star of the sea" is my favorite with "yeah" and "desire" a close second

    smashing pumpkins, i can't narrow it down to one song, just impossible :)
