I love how Billy tries to tout that Shrek could have had Untitled as the credits song.

I can't stand Smash Mouth. But objectively, Untitled would have been a fucking terrible closing credits song for a goddam animated kid's movie. Smash Mouth's garbage fits way better than a last-second recorded ho-hum Pumpkins track with lyrics that are barely coherent.

It likely went 'hey Billy there is this animated movie starring Mike Myers and they are looking for a catchy pop song. You interested?'

He presents Untitled. It and likely dozens of other songs by known and unknown artists are passed over.

'i was supposed to be on the Shrek soundtrack but the deal fell through.'

I remember that one Eels video... I think it was called Novacaine for the Soul. I think they may have had a few more hits but I never paid much attention to them.

Regardless, Untitled is still a great song. I have a love/hate relationship with the Machina stuff, but I’m glad SP1 concluded on a really good track.

Wanky solo at the end of Untitled is god-tier.

"Untitled" is pretty boring to me, and seems to foreshadow the post-reunion material.

Seems like an underwhelming song to pick as their grand finale.

Back in 2000, I'd liked the idea of the 3 of them getting into the studio to write and record a final goodbye track for fans. And I still like the idea? But the song on its own is pretty bland. I wouldn't put it in the top 50 Pumpkins tracks.

Untitled was okay. Not special but I can still throw it on from time to time. They threw it together in what, 3 days?

I was thinking about this and I wonder if what actually happened was, some fatcat studio executive who knows jackshit about music ordered one of his assistants to "get that popular band... smash something or another" to contribute music to the movie. And the assistant, thinking he meant Smashing Pumpkins, reached out to Billy and began negotiations. From there, the assistant played Bullet or some other heavy SP track for the exec, and the exec was like, "What the fuck? I didn't mean this band! Are you a fucking moron? Yeah, let's end the movie with Shrek and Fiona slitting their fucking wrists in despair. I meant the guys who sing that song about walking on the sun!" And then the studio withdrew their offer.
I feel like this is exactly what happened tbh
