The Wonderful World of Disney

Despite all their rage, The Smashing Pumpkins are taking the holiday stage.

Billy Corgan and company will perform during a pair of ABC holiday specials, The Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Celebration and Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade.

On The Wonderful World of Disney, the Pumpkins will put their spin on the classic holiday tune “Silver Bells.” They’ll play a song called “Evergreen” on Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade.

While The Smashing Pumpkins performing during TV holiday specials might be a bit unexpected — if anything, their name suggests they’d be more fitting for fall festivities — the band has been working on a Christmas album for some time.

The Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Celebration airs November 26 at 8 p.m. ET, while Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade premieres December 25 at 10 a.m. ET.

Nothing about any of this brings me joy.

ourruseoffools · 11-18-2023, 09:08 PM

Watch the James lead on silver bells be the most insane thing we’ve ever heard

enthusaroo · 11-18-2023, 11:25 PM

ATUM outtakes lol

Machinist · 11-19-2023, 03:46 AM

Man imagine if all those people who accused BC of being a corporate sell out could see him now.

Also, fuck every band that sells Christmas sweaters.

T&T · 11-19-2023, 11:56 AM

Billy's always had a soft spot for Christmas. it's part of the original SP1 canon.
I'm not going to knock this.

KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas was a favorite bootleg of mine.

1. Rocket
2. Cherub Rock (with some cuts)
3. Today
4. Disarm
5. Spaceboy
6. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (Gene Autry cover)
7. Hummer

Shouldn’t they have had the Christmas album ready to go to coincide with the show? Now billy will read about how three or four people say online he can’t sing anymore and the song was uninspiring and then he’ll shelve the whole Christmas album out of spite

Gooch · 11-19-2023, 02:09 PM

“The band has been working on a Christmas album for some time” when I read this it made me feel like they’re inept and trying to figure out how to make a record and they’re struggling...it’s embarrassing...then I realize well yeah it’s been this way for 23 years lol

The Christmas album could’ve been a limited thing. 1000 copies thru Zuzu’s. Missed opportunity. With SP he wants everything to be some huge thing that he thinks will cause a cultural shift (will never ever ever happen).

Maybe it's finally coming out now... It even just a single.

themadcaplaughs · 11-20-2023, 03:32 PM

Will there be an indie groundswell?

Joey Goldberg · 11-20-2023, 03:58 PM

mickey mouse swell

enthusaroo · 11-20-2023, 06:40 PM

I think Billy should just put out the whole Xmas album they finished.. I mean most Xmas albums are bad.. no one is gonna judge him if it's bad.. unlike ATUM which was supposed to be good (but wasn't)

T&T · 11-20-2023, 07:05 PM

but the next album is supposed to be a real rock album.

This is the look Bill should go for when touring / playing. Looks sharp.

eviltimeban · 11-24-2023, 05:21 PM

Why is he talking so loud and so fast!

deadlecturer · 11-24-2023, 05:55 PM

This is prob their biggest TV gig in awhile.

We'll get Rudolph probably. Then Perfect.

Forgotten Child · 11-24-2023, 06:25 PM

It's Silver bells and Evergreen

i like his pants. i think james probably picked them out

Ram27 · 11-25-2023, 12:22 AM

he has such a weird body, the shirt / pants fit (?) give his torso a weird tube - like quality

love the pants though, needs a full turn of the century outfit a la T,T video

New Art Rioter · 11-25-2023, 04:26 AM

Looks a lot better than the Shiny gear but needs plain pants and plain tie surely, too many patterns

Forgotten Child · 11-25-2023, 06:19 AM

Grey checked trousers, black polka-dot shirt, purple/blue polka-dot tie... You guys have no sense of style.

He did much better than time they played the James Corden show
