This thread has fallen, yes? Well, you know the rules. I'll start with a few:
_________________________
journeyed here and there and back again
but in the same old haunts I still find my friends
mysteries not ready to reveal
sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
graceful swans of never topple to the earth
_________________________

and
________________________
and I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
and we don't know
just where our bones will rest
to dust I guess
forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
double cross the vacant and the bored
they're not sure just what we have in store

Spade got #1 right.
Jorath got #2 right.

I was in a Smashing Pumpkins mood. A great Chicago band, with awesome music and the wherewithall to bow out of the biz when at their best -- with the class to put out their last "album" online for free and to perform 3 final concerts for free in Chi-town. Recent Corgan interviews reveal he had an issue with the attitudes of popularity and the constraints of personality conflicts in the band. Since he wrote almost ALL their lyrics, I guess breaking out on his own was natural.

I'm listening to 1979 again as we speak. A beautiful song among beautiful songs.

One last indulgent 1979 quote: "I know you better than you fake it." Great quote!

*Moment of Personal Truth*
Because I had a run-in with Johnny Law at a Smashing Pumpkins concert in Louisville, KY, including getting roughged up by a cop who swore I'd never be a lwayer (a *horrible* venue, the Dead's friends refuse to return to this day -- You suck Louisville -- oh, and to that particular cop: F*** you, buddy, you were very wrong), I had an aversion to Smashing Pumpkins' songs for many years. 'Twas a shame.

Anywho, go ahead guys. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Ah yes, Smashing Pumpkins, best band ever... can't believe that this year it's 10 years since Siamese Dreams came out andI heard them first

Have you guys heard Billy Corgans new band Zwan? It's pretty good, specially for old Pumpkins fans... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyway here is mine:


Just by looking through your eyes
He could see the future penetrating right
In through your mind
See the truth and see your lies
But for all his power couldn't foresee his own demise

I could say a lot about Zwan, but none of the adjectives I'd use in my description would be classifiable as "positive". Let's just say that I'm glad Zwan has already broken up.

Here's mine:

Standin at the door of the Pink Flamingo
Cryin in the rain
It was a kind of so-so love
And I’m gonna make sure it doesn’t happen again
You and I had to be
The standing joke of the year
You were a runaround, a lost and found
And not for me I feel
