You know what's good is You Were Mine
Right? This has always been my absolute favorite of the Chicago Kid stuff. Just came across it deep in my iTunes and was like, "Oh fuck, I kind of forgot how much this rules." I didn't say that but I was like that. Inside. Did anyone ever hear a demo for this or the, y'know, finished thing sitting on a shelf or whatever? I've heard a bunch of recordings of it on archive.org just now, but I'd love just the cleanest version possible. Anyway what do you think. Do you want to say some nice things about this song or maybe even about me for being so thoughtful as to make this thread about it and maybe let you hear it for the first time or just remember it all over again. Do you. Last edited by topleybird : 05-18-2023 at 02:06 PM. Reason: It's Nunya. Nunya Business |

I drove hours to Chicago to wait in line to see this. They sent some stooges out to number our hands with sharpies. I think they let 100 in to pray at billy's feet (no coughing), I was number 104 or something. Drove home cold and angry
I'll never forgive this bald asshole. |

Say what you want about dear old Bill but the man has written a seeming eternity of songs and so many of them make me feel something. This one does.

Beautiful song. Imagine the return to form that would be all over the news if he rerecorded these songs (even with crap production) and released it without the backstory? lol
Maybe he'd manage to ruin them who knows |

I really hope he does not re-record or even rework the Chicago Kid material. His voice and playing never sounded better than during the Zwan/post-Zwan era. I wonder what is holding up the release of this material, not sure if the recordings were part of the overall Warner deal or if Corgan owns the masters.

These songs aren't being released because they'd instantly eclipse everything he's done for the last 20 years... The success, however modest, would be more humiliating than any flop...
I didn't know World's Fair, so when he played it in 2016, I was so glad to hear new Pumpkins that moved me. I later looked up the song and shook my head sadly... Billy can no longer even write a melody like that slow descending phrase in You Were Mine, which is ridiculous because it's all over music. The kids love pastiche, steal more overtly WPC... |

Not sure why y’all are worried. The songs are perfectly preserved for future generations and just sitting there on a shelf.

Buddy if we all started listing the myriad little prompts we (as intelligent and decent people) encountered during our daily lives that made us want to listen to Prince, we'd be here all fuckin' night

and the revolting personality is forever hard for me to understand. you have/had the ability to create legendary music, but you can't at least pretend to be a humble or gracious person

What a horrid thing to wish unto a person, Topley. I request that you apologise before I take away your imgflip.com privileges.

It can be useful if houseo' is experiencing certain vitamin deficiencies, which is the only reason I can imagine they'd be posting nasty and untrue things here on Netphoria, so actually I'm trying to help and I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't assume the worst of me like this

At this time I will have to pass on your recommendation that I eat dirt. But this song is boring topley, sorry. I see why the album is on a shelf now.

We are all entitled to our opinions; this is only fair and right
It's just that I never want to see yours ever again |
