Little Moments of Bliss

[skipgo]

There are moments of songs that kick me right in the gut and remind me exactly why i love this band so much.

One of the first such moments I first noticed in 94 or so, when I was driving somewhere and this part came on; gave me goosebumps. And it still does that to me.

The second one is from here is no why, the solo and the moments just before it kicks in. The tension built by those layered squealing guitars, then boomboomBOOMBOOMBOOMBOOMBOOMRELEASE. It's kinda sexual. And sex is good.

The guitar solo riiiiight before he sings "Bring me down" in Plume. The singing is so lackadaisical, and that mixed in with the guitars distortion = amazing.

I need a cigarette now.

that's the one i linked to

[SlingeroGuitaro]

indeed

thats my favorite moment maybe in all of music. seriously.





except for maybe 'echoes' when im on mushrooms.

[rolmos]

Siva: The solo right after "She said, I'm dead..." The guitar sounds like it's literally screaming.

[skipgo]

that section of here is no why is so perfectly arranged.

it reminds me of something my husband was saying about the tom petty song "here comes my girl", where the verses build this sort of uncomfortable tension, then the chorus is a great relief. Of course, that section of here is no why is nothing like here comes my girl, (oh, except they both start with "here"), but that tension/release thing in a song is great.

[Mo]

Everything in Starla; Soma when it finally kicks in; and of course Porcelina, the first riff.

Man.

TOASE = "and youre all 'ores and im a fag..."

Wound = "If you wait i will wait..."

Sacred and Profane = "will our love eva be enough?..."

IOTM = the last chorus when the guitars really kick in

Age of innoncence = The guitars right after the first chorus.

In My Body = the intro

Hello Kitty Kat - the amazing solo in the middle and the outro

BWBW - " and what have you gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaht"

To forgive - the part with violins at the end. " i forget to forget me..."

In the arms of sleep - "i ill do anything..."

whoa skipgo.... from your website or whatever it is

"I just downloaded it (I do plan to buy it on the 10th, I’m all about supporting Smashing Pumpkins). My curiosity couldn’t be contained, I had to hear it. On first listen, I find it much better than Machina, and I like it better than Adore as well, not to mention Billy Corgan’s solo album, TheFutureEmbrace and Zwan’s “Mary Star of the Sea”. Standout tracks for me ******* “Starz”, “Neverlost”, “That’s the Way (my love is)” and “United States”. I’d upload a few songs, but I’m pretty sure I’d be getting some threatening emails from warner brothers soon. It’s out there though, plenty of people have it now, so if you’re interested in finding it, you shouldn’t have much trouble."

try,try,try (alt) has many moments of bliss, at least for me.

[bja1288]

Beautiful 1:50-2:40
Bury Me 3:00
Silverfuck - bang bang youre dead
Love 2:40-3:10
Starz 2:40 to end
Ma Belle 2:30-3:00

[i_adore_adore]

in "Quiet," I can't even tell you the time or where it occurs exactly (I think it's the part where the time sig switches from 3/4 to 4/4) when that extra guitar is in the background just strumming this sweet chord. I dunno. But it's cool. I only noticed it this year.

The intro to Ma Belle (sweet bass sound)

The last part of the Rose March when the drums kick in.

The piano in Soma

The guitar solo in Soma

The guitar solo in Rhino

I could go on, but I won't.

what can i say, i was overwhelmed with the excitement of a new pumpkins album. I came to my senses soon enough.

[I Don't Live]

Hummer - "YEEEAAHHH! I want something new" part
Beutiful - "So let the clouds roll by your face...." part
TTEOR - the "we're forever frozen" part

[I Don't Live]

yea i agree, my favorite is the "when can we laugh and take all the credit, and all will go free"

[i_adore_adore]

Hummer - "YEEEAAHHH! I want something new" part

I dunno how I forgot that. Definitely one of Billy's greatest vocal moments.

[Esty]

Don't we have a song discussion thread already? I mean, how many do we need?

[exactlythesame]

[Mariner]

my love is sadness
my love is oh so strong
my teeth are razor sharp
my back is fucking strong
