As far as the boxed set goes, Zero and Thirty-Three were the best singles IMO.
I have to agree with you here. But Set the Ray to Jerry is sooooooo good
I don't know though, Pennies is better! There's such a selection it's hard to choose.

They are all good, in my opinion. The only one that gets a notch less than the rest is Bullet With Butterfly Wings, only b/c 5 of the 6 B-sides are covers. Great covers, but still covers nonetheless...
That being said, I love Cherry, God, Mouths Of Babes, Medellia Of The Grey Skies, Said Sadly, and Set The Ray To Jerry
The rest are great too, I just relate to those more...
One of Billy's best lines ever is in "Medellia"
"You're all I notice in a crowded room, you're vacant motives untouched...revealed"
*chills*
Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

Yeah all the singles are good. I also agree that the BWBW is my least favorite but it isn't bad.
I always get chills listening to Love, such a strong riff even though it's SO basic. That solo rips into my soul
As far as B-sides go though, I think Speed Kills is their best ever...that song is pure brilliance...
I have been listening to Thru The Eyes Of Ruby alot lately...easily one of their best songs ever.
I'm afraid you're mistaken....Slunk is their best B-Side :D
I love Thru the Eyes of Ruby! That, In the Arms of Sleep, and Cupid de Locke are my favorite "slow" songs on MC. Mayonaise, Rhinoceros, Annie-Dog, Atom Bomb (either version) or Disarm would be my favorite "slow" tune by them.

Slunk is pretty good too...I just don't prefer it over most of PI, although it should have been on there...Plume...another one I love.
I think I can honestly say that there isn't a Pumpkins song I hate. I can do without a couple, but I don't hate any of them.
Oh and Porcelina rocks.

Yeah it should've been on Pisces, and Bye June too! Obscured is my favorite from Pisces though, that or Hello Kitty Kat.
There are some Pumpkins songs I admit don't do anything for me, some of the Adore and MACHINA stuff. But that's mostly because of personal bias to a lot of the sounds they toyed with. Oddly I love Ava Adore though and I'm usually not a fan of NIN type stuff.
Oh acutally, I really don't like that country song on the blue disc now that I think of it. I never gave it a chance though.

I think my favorite from PI is either Plume or Blew Away...
I love Machina and Adore. I think they are very undderated and some of Billy's most beautiful writing is on Adore.
Tales Of A Scorched Earth is a song that I could do without. The one you are thinking of is Take Me Down sung by James. That song has beautiful words.
Check out my new sig!

Cool deal. If I go back to school and have to write something like that, I might do a paper on Glass And The Ghost Children.
Yeah I'm sad I only had one paper with the option of that topic. If I have another chance in my last semester I'd do Aeroplane I think. That is a brilliantly structured/composed song. Or I might do Age of Innocence, I love that song! Actually I should probably do a PJ song, why should they be left out? I'd no doubt do Wash if I could

Haha...you seem torn. But it's a good torn. PJ and the Pumpkins are my two favorite bands too, so many great songs to choose from.
Just turned on Mayonaise...another Billy classic...

Yeah, it really was...especially the way he introed it...I don't remember word for word, but it was beautiful.

TOASE is a great tune, but Billy's vocals are too distorted.
It's not Take Me Down, I checked. It's number 12 called Lily (My One and Only). The one with a reverse We Only Come Out at Night drumbeat.
I know, huh?...that would rock...
Yeah, the music itself is great...but his vocals annoy the piss outta me...haha.
Oh, ok...I love that song. It's about a peeping tom, and he uses the name Lily b/c that is his cat's name.
I love trying to figure out what songs are about. It's never simple with Mr. Corgan.

I'm listening to Pug!
Well, isn't Jellybelly about different flavored jelly beans?
If There Is A God
Haha, yeah and that song Pug you were listening to is about a dog *rolls eyes*
Snail is about a snail
Zero is about the number zero
Space Boy is about a boy from space
White Spyder is about a white spider
Haha...too funny...and Porcelina is about a toilet bowl with a female sounding name, floating in an ocean.
