@The Sentient Mustard His personality also really shines through when he's talking about the NWA and his love for wrestling. It's almost odd seeing one of my childhood rock icons as a wrestling promoter, because I grew up a huge wrestling fan as well, but there's something about him when he's talking about that stuff that's similar to here. Much more laid back and down to earth compared to his "biggest band in the world" persona a lot of people are probably familiar with. We all know the bad stuff that's been said about him being egotistical and hard to work with or whatever, but I'll always love the guy in spite of that, because he is human, and this clip was kind of heart-warming seeing him just casually talk about the past without worrying about a ton of camera and media attention.
This made me smile, thanks for sharing! I truly cannot wait until he releases a book filled with stories like this one. I enjoyed his "confessions" blog back in the mid 2000's, but holy cow Billy Corgan is such a gold mine of stories about so many different people from all walks of life. :)
Yeah I remember those too, he has the capacity to write some great readable books on the Pumpkins + his life which would be really interesting. Maybe we'll get those around the same time the Machina reissue eventually comes out! 😑
I love the end credits The End is the Beginning from Batman and Robin. I bought Batman and Robin on DVD a few months ago. Is it bright where you are? Have the people changed? Does it make you happy? You're so strange. In your darkest hour. I hold secrets flame. We can watch the world devoured in its pain. Thank you, Billy and the Pumpkins for such an awesome song.
I don't care that the movie is bloody awful, it's fun anyway. And Joel Schumacher was the coolest cat in Hollywood. That song and that movie are pure nostalgia, and occupy a warm place in my heart.
For those two colorful movies to come from Joel Schumacher as an adult blows my mind knowing his body of work. Falling Down, 8mm (Which is not a movie you should have your girlfriend walk in on you watching at certain scenes lol), Flatliners, Phone Booth, A Time to Kill and I want to say Eye for an Eye (one of the most graphic take scenes in a movie I think, I think he directed it). All super heavy and adult themes and dark.
I really wish, in all the times I've seen him live since the 90s, even just once, he would have added The End is the Beginning is the End to a set list. Such a great song. Anyone else here ever see the Pumpkins live where that song was part of the set? Because, if so, I'm jealous.
I got the Mr. Freeze toy and was completely in love with the film as a child. I remember the 2 SP songs the most, I loved the soundtrack and those 2 songs still stand out to bring back some great childhood moments. Music brings it to life, to me.
Honestly he would never stfu. Lol I just had the honor of hanging out with him again and we talked for hours. Well actually he talked for hours lol 😂 But as much I love him, let’s just say he definitely has “the gift of gab”. He is brilliant and kind and it is always fun getting him angsty and watch those cheeks turn red.
George Clooney is Rosemary Clooney’s nephew, not son. The Watchmen movie was no where near as good as the comic book. That thing was brilliant. I watched the extended cut, or unrated, or whatever it was a few years ago, and it wasn’t so bad. The movie needed a giant fake space alien squid to destroy New York like in the comic. I will say Rorschach was spot on perfect, though.
Rosemary Clooney was Miguel Ferrer’s mother. Making Miguel and George cousins. Also Jose Ferrer was technically George’s uncle briefly through his marriage to Rosemary.
I'm still thankfull to Batman & Robin for making the eleven years old me discover the Pumpkins, along with '89 and Forever those were my first CDs ever and I still have nothing but love for them. Also while agree on everything he said about "The Beginning is The End is The Beginning" being underrated and yet part of one of the greatest trailer of all time, I disagree on the movie, Watchmen was awesome, not as perfect as the graphic novel, but as close as you can get for such a direct transposition and complexity of the story (300 & Sin City were more faithful adaptations but the plot was also much easier to condense in a movie). That said, even if The Beginning is The End was always my favourite of the two, The End is The Beginning has probably one of my all time break in music, at about 2:40 in it slows down for thirty seconds of pure musical beauty.... And I admit I almost broke my mother's stereo as a child rewinding the track just to relisten to that part... xD!
I noticed immediately. It was the darker, heavier, b-side of the movie from Batman and Robin, on a movie depicting a darker, heavier underbelly of the superhero genre. It was an absolutely poetic choice
It was as good of an adaptation as I could have hoped for. I enjoyed it. The trailer put a lot of asses in the seats. Many would not have paid to see it in a theatre. :)
The trailer for Watchmen was my first exposure to The Smashing Pumpkins. I watched that trailer over and over again. Was a fan of them from there on out.
I just listened to both those songs again recently and I still like the slow version just as much, sometimes even more than the fast one. Depending on my mood. But when that soundtrack came out, I listened to The Smashing Pumpkins tracks more than any others.
His restaurant has amazing food. Their desserts are beyond delicious. It's a really cool place too. I work near there a lot. But I decided to give it a taste. Tried the grilled cheese (vegan food mind you) Very delicious. If you're ever in Illinois, go there, it's in highland park. Sometimes if you're lucky Billy is there. But it's just really cool to see a legendary artist up front and just hear what they have to say and even chill with them. They are human, just had a great opportunity to play their art to the world.
It would be so great if he had a bar! All he'd have to do is name his cocktails and shots after his albums and songs. Putting in an order would sound so awesome! *_"Excuse me, bartender! Could I have 2 Tarantulas shots, a Thirty-three, a Mellon Collie cocktail, a Cherub on the Rocks, 3 Siamese Dreams cocktails and 9 Bullet With Butterfly Wings shots, please?"_*
I understand his criticism of Batman and Robin since I feel like everybody has the same opinion lol. But watchmen?! I’d love to have a nerdy superhero talk with him and ask him what he didn’t like about it
If he loves the Watchmen comics as I do I can understand. Specially it´s this way for the old folks like me who were reading those comics when they came out in the 80´s. It´s not an awful movie but it´s an awful adaptation for many of us.
He’s right. Sit down, Watchmen the movie was extremely B minus. I’ve noticed people that like it have an unhealthy parasocial relationship with Zack Synder…
I might actually prefer that slowed down version of 'Beginning is the End' that they used for the trailer, too. It seems to heighten the drama of the song somewhat, although the original is still great
Awesome story! listening the rocky version of the song since the last hour. yes, shitty movie, got it on VHS (or used to when I was a kid) but damn good song. On my top 3 of Smashing Pumpkins... Thank you Bill for this story and your rage, the memories and also the story of there and back again with the lost fender guitar. They all are pure joy! cheers!
Billy looks like a sailor. I dig it. I hope he keeps the beard on tour. I bet he'll be able to do something fancy with it to make it look all impressive.
When Kurt Cobain was alive he would call Billy : Spermazoide Man . So Billy has been sporting this look for decades . I am definitely convinced that he DOES understand how hair works and that he probably doesn’t have a lot . Next comment! 🇺🇦✌️M
The End is the Beginning is the End no longer exists. I mean literally. You might find it on some obscure TH-cam channel. But if you look on music streaming services (at least the ones I have), it cannot be played. The Beginning is the End is the Beginning (the slower version) can easily be found- even at karaoke. Just an interesting side note
Anybody remember 90/91 Northwestern Univ had "Armadillo Days". I still don't know what it was supposed to be. Pumpkins were crushing it at Double Door and the like. Made a special effort to go see them. The band outnumbered the crowd!?! How do you leave something like that? It was 2pm w/ the sun beating down. Turns out Armadillo Days has a lot to do with hallucinogenic mushrooms.
i notice any time someone does Billy a favour, or says how much they like siamese dream, or gives him a place for his song in a movie, he goes on to say it's a shit movie, or the fan is useless for not liking his other albums No it's not a good story Billy, but so long as you're happy being toxic and talking about billy billy billy
Agreed. He seems like a douche from this video. Both movies are wonderful. He got his song in the end credits, so what is he complaining about? Very rarely is a whole song used for the end credits.
I’ll never forget being 13 and going to the theater for Batman & Robin. It was my first cinematic disappointment, but I did have the soundtrack, which was pretty great. Especially the last track (beginning/end/beginning), so it’s super cool to hear him speak of that version with such affection. Same with that Watchmen trailer! We’ll just casually avoid him giving clearance to Kevin Smith to use 1979 in Clerks 2. (Yikes. Shame on you, Kevin.)
I was a fan of watchmen before the movie came out. I was blown away by the first trailer but the movie as a whole is at best a misunderstood masterpiece. 2 big mistakes 1: Matthew Goode as Veidt/Ozymandias- He was nothing like the comic book counterpart, Veidt was supposed to be a very warm positive guy at the start and when he turned it was a shocking revelation. But Goode played him really odd and oily, and added that dopey German accent just because the characters parents immigrated as a child. And the costume was just good awful and Matthew Goode was severely anemic looking when Adrian Veidt was a built, muscular and chiseled guy. And number 2 the lack of the squid: why? Why blame it on Manhattan for? It took away from the whole paranoia of the story to just simply say oh it was because of dr Manhattan and not leave in the core mystery. I really hated that Snyder didn’t leave the philosophical discussion between Manhattan and Veidt: nothing ever ends is so iconic instead that nonsense of Veidt getting his arse kicked by night owl. That wasn’t the point Moore was making, Snyder was just smashing toys together but Moore was showing us the moral ambiguity of Veidts crime. I still enjoy the movie but it would have worked so much better as a long form multi season hbo or Cinemax show
Sorry but "Watchmen" was an amazing movie. I love the pumpkins but diva Billy actually calling and bitching about getting only one minute of your song in the credits is gay
Lol I’m a movie guy and I got in to The Smashing Pumpkins through Batman And Robin and Watchmen. They are my favorite band and also my first favorite band ever - they are how I got in to music 🤘🏽
Longtime fan here. I love Billy but he's really got a big mouth sometimes. Calling the Watchmen movie "a piece of sh**" is pretty silly even as a joke. It's definitely one of the best comicbook adaptations I've seen.
That movie is a fun romp! A lot like a broadway musical mixed with a Batman movie... Hard to have bad feelings about something so fun and colorful and theatrical...
The Pumpkins were my favorite band from the 90s for a lot of my life. This is the most real and laid back I've ever seen Billy.
@The Sentient Mustard almost lol

Hes a nut job
I think it's because he has a stable relationship and I think at this time he has 2 kids.
Despite all his rage, he's a bald Santa Claus on a stage
made me LOL
...and someone will say that 'his face could never be shaved.'
@@PhantomFilmAustralia I don't know whether I love or hate you for this lol
That made me fucking howl bro

If you haven't, you might enjoy his interview on Rogan.
@Christopher Wilson, I totally agree with you, I love his story-telling ability!

I love Billy's storytimes lol. Thanks!
What a plot twist! I never thought Billy Corgan would become Santa Claus.
Just what thought, but the beard fits to the paunch.
Exactly my thoughts
Looks like Santa lost weight this year
it's completely crushing my current perception of reality (also, Despite all his rage, he's really just fat for his Age)
I think he's lost the beard now and looks then years younger
I don't care that the movie is bloody awful, it's fun anyway. And Joel Schumacher was the coolest cat in Hollywood. That song and that movie are pure nostalgia, and occupy a warm place in my heart.
I liked it as a kid and I think that's the point.
Batman Forever still holds up more so than Batman and Robin. Hate they get lumped together
@@thebeatlesandoasis05 They're both absolute turd fests

"Ive got them.... Ive got your song tabs-- right here--- '1979,' 'We only come out at night,' 'Rhinoserous'---- Youre through!!! NEXXXT!!!!!!"
That single minute of Pumpkin music is the GREATEST moment of that movie.
I bought the soundtrack because I needed to hear the rest of the song, on demand.
Awesome, thank you so much for sharing this!
Such a good storyteller. And songwriter! Corgan is just a legend
I really wish, in all the times I've seen him live since the 90s, even just once, he would have added The End is the Beginning is the End to a set list. Such a great song. Anyone else here ever see the Pumpkins live where that song was part of the set? Because, if so, I'm jealous.

The Watchman was awesome. The thing with the Schumacher Batman was that it went back to the 60's TV series. It was camp and not horrible.
Oh...that explains it.
Imagine his stories if he had a bottle of bourbon!
That’s pretty funny 😄
@@bilhamcobbly2957 🤣
Honestly he would never stfu. Lol

Not everyone drinks liquor.
He’s a huge advocate for sobriety! Even kicked out his guitarists if they weren’t sober
Thank you for uploading this!
Would have been hilarious if after that great story he says "so anyway...here's wonderwall"
Noel Gallagher has opened for the Smashing Pumpkins too... he probably could've asked him to play that
George Clooney is Rosemary Clooney’s nephew, not son.

Yes, the Watchmen tv series showed it (the giant squids) could have and should have been done.
The Watchmen movie was extremely mediocre, Bill is right, that trailer was brilliant, and made the movie look a lot better than it actually was.
@@GPlewright exactly. That series exceeded my expectations.
The best movie I seen with Clooney is out of sight
I'm still thankfull to Batman & Robin for making the eleven years old me discover the Pumpkins, along with '89 and Forever those were my first CDs ever and I still have nothing but love for them.

I’m glad I was in high school when “Gish” “Siamese Dream” came out…
I played the fuck out the Batman & Robin soundtrack so the Watchmen trailer immediately took me back.
That Watchmen trailer thrilled me precisely because I loved that SP track and I doubted that anyone noticed it was from Batman and Robin. So epic.
I noticed son.
I noticed immediately. It was the darker, heavier, b-side of the movie from Batman and Robin, on a movie depicting a darker, heavier underbelly of the superhero genre. It was an absolutely poetic choice
Yep. It's a better version IMO.
I disagree with Corgan about Watchmen, that was a solid movie.
It was as good of an adaptation as I could have hoped for. I enjoyed it. The trailer put a lot of asses in the seats. Many would not have paid to see it in a theatre. :)

I really like Watchmen movie. One of my favorite comic book movies.

That was awesome.

Say what you will about the movie, but the Watchmen trailer was phenomenal. Blew me away as a teen. I bought the graphic novel next week.
Ill never forget when i first saw it on the The Dark Knight dvd so mind blowing i never skipped it
ok now i have to watch the watchmen trailer lmao
@@EmpyreanLightASMR youll love it its pure art tbh
@@KillerGrim47 nah, I just wanted to check out the music. the trailer (and the movie) were NOT my thing...

Great story. I think he's being a little harsh on the Watchmen film lol, it's way better than almost every other comic book film.
The Watchmen trailer was amazing though
" Billy, end credits is destiny".
The Watchmen film was a phenomenal masterpiece.
Yes i dnt understand the hate that movie gets..underrated tu aak me
Yes the Watchman was amazing
All I remember from it is one big blue massive shlong!!
it's a great movie
I might actually prefer that slowed down version of 'Beginning is the End' that they used for the trailer, too. It seems to heighten the drama of the song somewhat, although the original is still great
He should dress up as Santa for a tour
It would make a change from dressing as a Sith Lord.
@@inphanta hahaha, true.
Became a lifelong fan of watchmen and the smashing pumpkins because of that trailer
There's the real punchline at the VERY end.. Wow this story was Norm level meander.
The songs they made for that movie were far better than what that movie deserved.
Smiling Santa
listening to this legit made me laugh
Prince knew in what he was getting into and he enjoyed
Prince didn't have to share credit with other artist though, he made a full album. ;)
I'm 60. Billy and I traveled through the same time on this planet. We were here.
I still love this man
Batman Forever and Batman+Robin soundtracks are full of amazing music!
Awesome story! listening the rocky version of the song since the last hour. yes, shitty movie, got it on VHS (or used to when I was a kid) but damn good song. On my top 3 of Smashing Pumpkins... Thank you Bill for this story and your rage, the memories and also the story of there and back again with the lost fender guitar. They all are pure joy! cheers!
Billy's starting to look like Creed from the last episode of the office lol cool story
I love the movie and that soundtrack is amazing!
That song is awesome!
Santa with Butterfly Wings
Love the Watchmen version
Glad he did it. What a corker of a rock song!
the song he's talking about is one of my all time favorites from them
Seal ? 😂
Billy looks like a sailor. I dig it. I hope he keeps the beard on tour. I bet he'll be able to do something fancy with it to make it look all impressive.
Nah he looks better without the beard.
If he shaved it "Guy Fawkes" style, it would suit him.
I love this song…
It's so crazy seeing him in a grey beard.
4:58 George Cloney is not the son of Rosemary Clooney. Rosemary was his aunt.
I’m convinced Billy doesn’t understand how hair works
who gives a fuck?
Bad genetics. Head hair fell out and even his beard is thin and wispy
Hair doesn't work for all of us....
When Kurt Cobain was alive he would call Billy : Spermazoide Man . So Billy has been sporting this look for decades . I am definitely convinced that he DOES understand how hair works and that he probably doesn’t have a lot . Next comment!

It's definitely one of the best comicbook adaptations I've seen.

Billy watch from 4:46
