for a long time it was one of those songs i'd skip every single time.
then after a few years i gave it another shot, and i grew to really like it. i think it's a brave and rare moment to include on a record, and although it's not easy to take in if you're not a particularly invested listener, it does match with the vibe of the record and the tracklist in a way that feels "correct".
i like corgan's lazy morning vocals, before he even warmed up, and i like the way the lyrics are both very obvious in what they're about, yet they circle around the topic in strange, creative ways that are mostly left of center.
and then you have Shame, Behold, Martha and Blank Page.
