    i like the ones when Corgan isn't singing. and if he is singing, he's doing so quietly. not trying be a jerk, but it's the truth.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Mayonaise.


    It's too bad Billy Corgan has turned into such an asshole over the past couple years. They were a great band back in the day.

    Hummer has always been my favorite but Rhinoceros is a close second.

    They're quite a few but Doomsday Clock comes to mind.

    This is impossible.

    Some of the 98 versions of the adore songs are fucking amazing.

    But Porcelina, Thru the Eyes of Ruby and Mayonaise come to mind as some of the finest. Also Speed Kills from the 99 tour is noice!

    Hummer. Although 1979 is perfect, I think.

    Siamese Dream is flawless. So, whatever song happens to be playing from that album. Rocket, Cherub Rock, Mayonnaise....

    Wow. I just realized I don't have a definite favorite. I think at some point in time or another I've considered every song from Siamese Dream to be my favorite. But for now, I'll jump on the Mayonnaise bandwagon. It really is a perfect rock song.

    Mayonaise is probably my favorite but there are so many good songs to choose from.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

  • I thought I was in the minority here, but someone else actually mentioned Doomsday, which is one of my tops. I fucking love Zeitgeist, and don't get the backlash against it. It's a great album.

    Age of Innocense.

    Though all of Adore and Machina are two of my favourite albums of all time so it's really hard to choose. Can't go wrong with 1979 though. A classic for all time

    never understood the hype of this song, think its one of their worst!

    Glass + the Ghost Children (on the album, live versions usually weren't very good).
    Set The Ray To Jerry
    Thirty-Three
    Tear (especially 98 live versions with Mike Garson's keyboard wanking)

    I love Drown. That's the song that got me listening to them so I guess I'm partial to it.
