![]() Released today. I thought some of you might like it. It's certainly much more pleasant to listen to than the majority of SP covers.
She's clearly a fan of SP- and even wrote a poem to accompany the song: In a city of metal, glitter & stretched skin behind a leathered band & thick black curtains my heart beats double kick because I’m the drummer of The Smashing Pumpkins and we’re seconds away from walloping into a sold-out stadium set. The crowd are amped, keen to be teens again: Tonight, Tonight smells of unrequited crushes, Lynx Africa & the burn of firsts remembered. Every song cradles place, past, peers, DNA. Curtains rise & the roar is biblical. Billy turns to me through the smoke, his scream starts the roll of the Cherub Rock intro on snare. I raise sticks above my head, count ONE! TWO! THR – |

![]() It's very nice. I often wonder with covers like this why they don't just make their own song, it's different enough that they'd get away with it.

![]() The problem with the Snail Mail one is that it's pretty similar to the original, only worse - aiming for urgency and not quite making it. This one replaces the urgency with a really sweet longing that I appreciate.

![]() Nice. drums a little weak. But i guess that's the style. Made me think of the lyrics a little differently. So that's nice.

![]() Says a lot when the only thing being discussed on NP is a twee cover of a 29 year old song.

![]() What do you expect for a band that broke up 24 years ago and haven't brought anything out since then? Discussions of 20 years of mediocre albums?

![]() Yes I'm kind of glad the Pumpkins never reformed and Billy just made solo albums. Didn't interfere with the legacy of the band one bit. Not one bit.
