What are some good Smashing Pumpkins songs?

[JShaker]

So last night I was watching MuchMusic and Billy Corgan and his new band Zwan were performing live in the studio. I just caught a few minutes of interview before and after they sang Honestly. I really liked that song and a friend was telling me that if I liked Zwan, then I would probably like Smashing Pumpkins as well because they sound extremely similar. So, I was just wondering, what are some good Smashing Pumpkins songs? Thanks in advance.

I'd say all of them. Just go get a few albums, I promise you you won't be disappointed.

There could be a few, but none in reality since Billy Corgan is a terrible singer...

 

[Spoooon]

I'd always liked Today.

I love the Siamese Dream album, but my favorite song is probably Luna.

Rhinoceros is a rocking song.

They have a greatest hits album...most of those songs are really good. Buy GISH, it's a great album.

He may not have a classically trained voice, but being able to have a nasal voice that actually sounds good with the music they play (at least in my opinion) is commendable.

Billy is god!

pick up the siamese dream and mellon collie double cd albums......IMO 3 of the greatest CDs ever. SOoooooooo many great songs. After listening to those, you'll be hooked, and want all the rest!

rhinoceros, everlasting gaze, stand inside your love, ava adore, perfect weren't mentioned there

Anything off of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, like they said... Also check out some of their live acoustic stuff, it's incredible

 

[weezergirl]

I think my favorite video and song is 1979. Check out all of their singles as someone listed. Amazing stuff!

Also check out their cover of Dreaming and If there Is a God.

I think Smashing Pumpkins are a great band. I agree that Billy's voice is irritating but somehow he makes it work!!! I love all of their stuff.

ROFL. I was seriously thinking "Any song in which Corgan does not sing."

I always hear the intro to Pumpkins' songs and I'm always impressed by how cool they sound, and then Corgan's grating tuneless voices comes in and spoils the whole effect.
