SMASHING PUMPKOVERS (An A to Z Post!)

There was a time, not so long ago, when The Smashing Pumpkins were one of my favorite live bands.  I haven’t delighted in them of late, but they still hold a nostalgic place in my heart.  I posted an A to Z a long time ago, leeching off of a huge database of SP tunes.  That database seems to be dead now.  Hence, the need for an update.  and this time, it’s only covers!  There’s a zip file, of course, and a few choice flavors to taste.  If you like it, please consider thumbing up the songs on Hype Machine, submitting to Digg, etc.  Or even dropping me a good comment!

A is for the always classic, “All the young Dudes.”  nobody can mess up this tune.  Nobody.

B is for young boys Don’t Cry (Cure cover). It’s kind of annoying how (Ginger?) keeps talking over it, but it’s still pretty cool anyway.

C is for Cinnamon girl (Neil Young).  another tune that’s really hard to f*&%k up.

D is for Duran Duran’s “Nightboat.”  very esoteric selection there, Billy.

E is for eeek!  The zip file! It completely snuck up on me!  better cop it before it goes away, ’cause once it’s gone, it’s gone.  I don’t do reups.

F is for forever young (Bob Dylan).

G is for another eclectic selection, “Girl Called Sandoz” by The Animals.

H is for the Holidays!  Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

I is for I want You To want Me-Smashing Pumpkins with cheap Trick. two great tastes that go great together!

J is for Jean Genie (David Bowie).  another complete reworking, but this one is finished with the man who sold The world Himself: David Bowie!  look at this A to Z I’m giving you, two great team-ups in a row.

K is a difficult one, so I’m gonna use the k in the middle of Steve Miller’s The JoKer.  Sorry if that’s cheating.

L is for Lucifer Sam-Billy Corgan solo.  A Pink Floyd/Syd Barrett classic.

M is for the monster in Smashing Pumpkin’s classic favorite cover of Godzilla (Blue Oyster Cult).

N is for never let Me Down again (Depeche Mode).

O is for Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr, two essential members of the Cars! You’re All I’ve got Tonight (The Cars). love love love this cover.

P is for the people in beautiful people (Marilyn Manson).

Q is for the proudly queer delight Division, and SP’s cover of their tune, “Transmission.”

R is for The Rolling Stones’ stray cat Blues–one of my favorite Jagger/Richards tunes.

S is for Sookie Sookie (Steppenwolf).

T is for once in a lifetime (Talking Heads). This is the Corgan version.  It’s pretty much a new song–very little left of the original.

U is for U2!  stay (U2 cover).

V is for velvet Underground’s Femme Fatale (Billy Corgan solo).

W is for White Rabbit (Jefferson Airplane) with heavy metal Machine.

X is for . . . I got nothing.  Sorry.

Y is for young Love’s cover of Smashing Pumpkins’ classic, 1979.

Z is for thin liZZy’s, “Dancing in the Moonlight.”  A very nice, gentle cover.
