Epic cover/reimagining of Tonight Tonight
Hi fellow Pumpkin fans! I just want to share with you my piano cover of Tonight Tonight.
This is not an ordinary carbon copy cover of the song. As a composer coming from a Classical music background (Beethoven, Chopin, Mozart) I took the opening orchestral intro of the song and wove my own 19th century-style music around it. For the video, I used a variety of nostalgic images of the band as well as fairy tale illustrations which pay homage to the beautiful John Craig album artwork on MCIS. Please leave comments and subscribe to my YouTube channel! You can also follow me at https://www.facebook.com/popnocturne/ Thank you for listening. |

Nah, it's cool. There will always be people who don't appreciate my music, I am bringing something new but some people just want what they already know. But there will be others who will appreciate my passion and love and vision of the song, you can't please everyone. So please, comment whatever you like, but either way thank you for listening.

I'm not sure what your point it. Billy is an expert in rock music theory. He trained himself by listening and learning from his idols, Bowie, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, etc. My background is in Chopin and Beethoven. My goal in this recording is to merge the two different styles.

Thanks for listening! Yes I put Darcy first on purpose because I have a deep respect for her, no matter what others say. Everyone who worked on MCIS deserves respect and credit for their hard work and talent.

This is awesome. Ive never heard of this song tho ,- must be a rarity or b side? Can you do Widow Wake My Mind? Thats an SP classic that more people would be aware of.
No it was amazing, tho. Seriously. |

Corgan's Bluff never has a "point," per se, so much as a boastful display of how much better an e-stalker he is than the rest of us
i say this of course with love! |

The cynicism, stupidity and cruelty with which most of you have reacted to my composition is a clear indication of how fractured and wasted whatever remains of the Pumpkins fandom has become.
A complete stranger and fellow fan comes along to simply share his love for the band by putting his heart and soul in a piano cover, opens his heart to you, and you guys can do nothing but shoot him down and try to ruin his dream. "Set to drain." It is you who are the vampires of the world. And the way I see it, you are exactly the sort of bullies The Pumpkins had originally united to protect us from. This has nothing to do with you liking or not liking my playing. It has everything to do with who you are as Pumpkin fans and human beings. I'm leaving not because I cannot withstand different opinions, but because your opinions are clearly tainted with an innate bias to hurt. And that I don't tolerate, either to me or to others. Goodbye and remember, "There's a love that God puts in your heart." |
