The Smashing Pumpkins – Winterlong Lyrics	18 years ago
I think the song is about being in his band. The opening line "if I fall into you all" I see him stood at the front of the stage playing his acoustic contemplating falling into the crowd. The line "some feel movement others stand still" is about how the audience reacts to slow songs like winterlong. The rest I think is about band dynamics and recording music together.

The Smashing Pumpkins – Bring the Light Lyrics	18 years ago
I love this song. It's so full of life, love and energy. I particularly like the line "mix my ash with your blood" for me this is Billy saying how he has been burnt and hurt but this new love of his is bringing life and passion to him. Zeitgeist best album (of the last 7 years...)

Jarvis Cocker – Big Julie Lyrics	18 years ago
really powerful song about a girl who is really lonely and men just want to get in her pants rather than actually care about her. Jarvis is great

The Smashing Pumpkins – An Ode to No One (Fuck You) Lyrics	20 years ago
Did you notice on the final gig (DVD) he sings "I'm never giving in, I'm never giving in" instead of "I'm never coming back" and lo and behold there are now plans to re-form the band. Such a good song
