Song stuck in your head
- Thread starter puffymilk

My recollection is that they hated it, and at/or by that point, most of the general public was over & done with bands like that - & onto the new... But regardless, I loved the song PERFECT - which was released on radio & had accompanying video (music) at the time. This was like '98. Didn't get around then to really/truly "listening," to it until more like '01. Which I fell in love with tracks 12-15 (ish!)* ;^) Good stuff, but Dark~!. :^) yes, I believe I even heard Courtney Love once say that Billy was mad or angry/bitter that no one got to hear his best record. They came out with another like a year later (so did every body else - don't know if they were all worried about the world coming to an end, or what?). But that largely went, here again as I recall, unremarked or memorable. In spite of a heavier tone/sound in the guitar. Same problem still existed. By now You're talking '99/'00 & last thing people can generally remember (no t the 'die-hards,') is/was the double album. Which was an Eternity ago, at the time when you are/or were in college like me. As things can move pretty rapidly both in ones life then. But also at the time, with the music industry. Every body that was making that kind of music was kind of a has-been, or past their prime.
I love Perfect! Perfect is Perfect 
I think they broke up in 2000? Because I think I read something about the Smashing Pumpkins farewell party/show. Though I know they're touring again now with a different lineup. I miss D'arcy... And of course Corgan being Corgan, how dare people not liking his music? LOL

I think it also could have had something to do w/the fact that - even years later - like sometime when they're next record came out (w/o the original members, save maybe Jimmy) that he'd say things like; 'Yea, 99.8% of what you're hearing on those older records, are just me & Jimmy!' 
in terms of who played on them, so aside from credit & all of that from the media, and whomever else. but even then when like they'd show up at interviews & they'd only want the singer to talk to, or ask questions to, and to photograph or whatever else~
