Wow. I cannot believe your list. I absolutely love all of the songs you listed apart from because you are.

I love all the songs on gish and Siamese dream and Pisces iscariot.

The only song that does nothing for me on MCIS is Cupid de Locke.

Adore - apples +oranges and daphne descend.

Out of b sides only one I don’t like is vanity.

Machina - blue skies bring tears.

Machina 2 - innosense

That’s pretty much it.

i kinda hate TBITEITB. the regular (TEITBITE) is so much better but because of watchmen they'll probably never play the other one again.

c'mon is pretty terrible. a lot of those early sabbath-like songs are pretty iffy. looking at you spiteface.

take me down is IMO the worst released SP-release JI song.
perfect
if there is a god
rock on

Released on the Zero EP, “Pastichio Medley” isn’t really as much of a song as it is a collection of short segments of songs.

“Pastichio Medley” contains over 73 separate songs (each around 10 seconds long), a testament to just how much work went into the creating of the Pumpkins' magnum opus, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Not only were dozens of outtakes released as b-sides, but as we can see here, many musical ideas… read more »

What have the artists said about the song?

This is our growing infamous riff collection of practically, but not almost, every idea that was attempted for Mellon Collie that didn’t even make B-sides status. I sorted through hundreds of hours of rehearsal and album tapes, and kind of randomly ran small bits all together to create a pastiche of madness. The original titles were all used.

The only really good SP cover I can think of is "Dreaming." The rest range from okay to bad.

And the ones that are "okay" are okay because they are just straight-up renditions of the original. Like "Cinnamon Girl."

Although "Soh Powah" is fun because of how tacky and energetic it is.

Don't worry, Bono! Cher will do a better version, with her next cover-album...


What's a band, sounding like amateurs (Peter Hook, hammering one hook)...



...against this rock orchestra with a transcendental Mission:

The my blue heaven cover on 33 wasn’t great

Also, I agree with whoever said the golden era ended at TAFH. The golden era is SD- TAFH
