Howard is one of the few people Billy really opens up to. I listen to a lot of his interviews and always love Stern because they get into really great stuff. This was shocking, he is one of the best artists around and to be told what he was tells me the people managing were morons, they were the losers. Cheers Billy
That's just Billy's recollection of how things went down. It seems it is in Billy's nature to complain, could be his main driving force to create. Anyways it's apparent he thinks way to much.
@@gc5907 I think being treated poorly at home maginfies any criticism to him. I think he just wants to be understood, but he doesnt realize that to be completely understood means you're probably quite shallow. If you're a complex person you're gonna be a little lonely in some aspects.
The Smashing Pumpkins was the best band of the nineties for me. Billy Corgan is a genius. He wrote some of the very best and most beautiful songs of all time.
I’ve been a Pumpkins fan since the 90s. I don’t know why but fairly recently (past three or so years) it’s become apparent that they are *the* 90s band. Their music has stood the test of time. Young people are still flocking to their shows. m
How SP haven’t even been nominated for Rock Hall of Fame yet is beyond me when you consider not just Billy but Chamberlain being amongst the top most influential drummers of all time
The pain and abuse a kid has to endure will usually last their entire life and continually remind them of how much of a failure they are and that’s what Billy still feels today even after all his success. He can’t stop being hyper critical of his choices in life and he can’t stop shitting on each and every aspect of his life and I bet a lot of us can relate?
I'm definitely one of the fans asking for more "Disarm". One of the best songs ever written period. "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" is incredible but in my opinion, Billy's beauty as a songwriter is in his terribly tragic slow sad songs. Great interview Howard!
Billy being so honest, Howards at a loss for words, first time ever in an interview. Siamese Dream is by far one of the most amazing albums Ive ever heard
I got to finally meet him, at the book signing for his poetry book. I got to tell him thank you for siamese dream, it changed my life and he expressed everything I was feeling at that age. It was the perfect and critical time of me being a teen thinking I was a freak
True but at least he’s honest with how he feels even if it’s negative I appreciate that more than some phony that just says the same ol things over and over
Billy is amazing. He is so talented and so wise. I actually enjoyed their deeper stuff when I was a teen in 94/95; it seemed to resonate more with me as a lost teen finding himself. I actually didnt fully enjoy the harder stuff until later. weird.
This reminds me of something. There was a good documentary concerning this called Heckler. It was about successful stand up comedians admitting that some of the over the top criticism from some critics (and I mean the super vile criticism that resembled a personal attack rather than constructive criticism) really did affect them a lot in some cases. We're all human and we all have feelings.
Billy, you and your songs have brought so much joy to my life. They run the gamut of human emotions and experience, offering hope and love in a musically rich and masterful way. Your melodies are truly special. These are songs that simply would not have existed without you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul. You are special and your fans love you.
I guess that kind of sensitivity to criticism or rejection kind of makes for better songs. I feel sorry for what he’s been through and apparently still continues to go through.
So many artists go through this same thing. Sara Bareilles wanted to write more meaningful things too, but her record label tried to strong-arm her into writing a love song. Her response was to write "love song" which is about resisting those pressures and then that song became her biggest hit. It's all about the money.
It this stage in his life he should value himself completely and enjoy himself. He's got talent and he's rich as anything. Make whatever music you want
They aren't my favorite band by a long shot and I only know a handful of their songs, but they've had an outsized importance in my musical development. I have a great respect for his approach to creating.
I'm surprised that Billy opened up and showed vulnerability, but it's great that he did. Billy, you're amazing and your art is valued by your fans. F*ck the haters....Don't let them bring you down.
just goes to show you, that regardless of your accomplishments it's impossible to be satisfied if you aren't surrounded by supportive people..... Corgan has always been able to articulate these complex ideas so well....
I totally get what he is saying. It's so tragic that that is/was his perspective. SP music meant so much to so many people. Still does. I hope he fully understands this, now
When I ponder question: “What are the MASTERPIECE records of the 90s, first on my list is Melloncollie &TIS. And i’m not even a Pumpkins fanboi - I’m just a fan of awesomeness.
I’m about the same age as Billy and also from the Midwest, and for those of you that don’t believe what he’s saying, or think he’s exaggerating, or just don’t understand, he’s telling you the truth. I’ve been exactly there as a musician, and if you come from a place where your parents can’t even appreciate what you do, it’s hard to hear the good things others say
If Billy could actually ignore....anything, he would have been critcized far less, IMO. Because he felt he had to react, he made those apt to criticize more powerful. Billy fought back, and was vilified by music media for it.

Billy Corgans interview with Beato was awesome. It takes him a few minutes but he really opens up in a long form conversation. It’s cool
I agree..Beato is awesome himself as well.
Highly recommend
Agreed!
Billy Corgan - you are NOT worthless. You are a genius and a legend and you have gave millions of people a gift
He knows that, he's just a professional victim. He should laugh at the people that he claims tried to hinder him. He won, they lost.
This says a lot about PTSD and what we endure at home. It lingers and resonates in the back of our minds into adulthood.
Why healing is so necessary 🤗🌟✨️

Billy is a true artist. Thank god he doesn’t bend to pressure.
My parents are burning in hell
He sure ❤🩹😎

Hahaha yeaaaaaaa *plays Atum* sure sure
True artist, lol

Love Smashing Pumpkins. Saw then in NY a couple a years ago with Noel Gallagher. But Oasis is the best band from the 90s.
Pumpkins and Blur for Sure
How SP haven’t even been nominated for Rock Hall of Fame yet is beyond me when you consider not just Billy but Chamberlain being amongst the top most influential drummers of all time
This !!!! Thank you !
I believe they are about to be nominated, let's chill
YES
there's a lot of great music out there but those two together are the greatest
the rock and roll hall of fame means nothing. Most of the musicians I love were not inducted, so what?
He's describing narcissistic abuse in classic forms. What a beautiful soul to have withstood and created despite it.
He's wrong about that. Most big Pumpkins fans are asking for more Mayonaise and Hummer. That dreamy sound they had on Siamese Dream. Lol
*Spiteface
100
Ha! Spot on. My two favorite songs on SD.
Ahhh yes the 90's....if only.
Those things don’t happen. Musicians don’t write the same songs twice, baby girl.
The pain and abuse a kid has to endure will usually last their entire life and continually remind them of how much of a failure they are and that’s what Billy still feels today even after all his success. He can’t stop being hyper critical of his choices in life and he can’t stop shitting on each and every aspect of his life and I bet a lot of us can relate?
Everyone goes through shit in life. It’s how you handle it down the road.
Yep…
Or is his abuse he indured an excuse because last I checked it wasn't for me
Disarm is probably in the top 10 songs of the 90s in their entirety. It says so much to so many people.
His music saved my life many times
Thanks for sharing Billy, you may not hear this but the people have spoken and you have made the world a better place
I'm definitely one of the fans asking for more "Disarm". One of the best songs ever written period. "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" is incredible but in my opinion, Billy's beauty as a songwriter is in his terribly tragic slow sad songs. Great interview Howard!
That was sad to hear. I’m sorry you went through so much as a child. I wish for you peace and many blessings. 💯
No matter what they say Billy, thousand and thousand of people loves you and your art!
Perhaps more than that
millions
Holy shit....Howard makes his guests so comfortable, they always speak their heart. What an insight into Billy's brain.
Billy being so honest, Howards at a loss for words, first time ever in an interview. Siamese Dream is by far one of the most amazing albums Ive ever heard
I got to finally meet him, at the book signing for his poetry book. I got to tell him thank you for siamese dream, it changed my life and he expressed everything I was feeling at that age. It was the perfect and critical time of me being a teen thinking I was a freak
Billy ,i believe many young people held onto your music and managed to pull through difficulties in their lives.You are so talented and special.
Disarm gives me chills whenever i here it. Billy you are a great artist!
The human race is lucky to have billy
They were one of my favorites in the 90s.
I’m totally asking for more Gish/Siamese Dream music from him!
He always gives a great interview.
But he’s always whining about something. Most performers would be thrilled to have as much success as he did.
True but at least he’s honest with how he feels even if it’s negative I appreciate that more than some phony that just says the same ol things over and over
Noel Gallagher is better but yea this is one of his best
@@fredsystra7584 Noel Gallagher isn't "better". He's quite funny when he does interviews but Billy is more open and honest.
@@dfghdfghuytiu8207 the one thing doesn't necessarily has to do with the other if you know what i mean
I love the Smashing Pumpkins music. The more interviews I see of Billy Corgan the more I respect him as an artist and a person.
Billy is amazing. He is so talented and so wise. I actually enjoyed their deeper stuff when I was a teen in 94/95; it seemed to resonate more with me as a lost teen finding himself. I actually didnt fully enjoy the harder stuff until later. weird.

We're all human and we all have feelings.
The Pumpkins are one of the top 5 bands of the ’90s.
I don’t get it because I’ve always felt that Disarm is the best Smashing Pumkins song.
It’s up there, soma is my pick. Siamese dream is such a great album
that wasn't the point at all, all of his songs are good
I don't think it's even a top 10 SP song.
It is
same here
Great honesty
Billy, you and your songs have brought so much joy to my life. They run the gamut of human emotions and experience, offering hope and love in a musically rich and masterful way.

Beautiful string arrangement 🙏
My favorite band of all time.
Wow! Super powerful interview!
billy is a grade A songwriter...period
I'm asking for the Disarm songs. A lot of fans are. Love you Billy! Best artist of rock's history IMO.
I'd love more of Disarm!
I had no idea he went through that with management. His music was brilliant. I listened to so many of his songs non stop
So many artists go through this same thing. Sara Bareilles wanted to write more meaningful things too, but her record label tried to strong-arm her into writing a love song. Her response was to write "love song" which is about resisting those pressures and then that song became her biggest hit. It's all about the money.
It this stage in his life he should value himself completely and enjoy himself. He's got talent and he's rich as anything. Make whatever music you want
Going by the last few releases, he certainly is and then some.
ATUM a rock opera of epic proportions
Money will not address that kind of pain.
Disarm surely is an incredible song. One of the best songs ever written.
Gish and Siamese Dreams did it for me. Now at 52 these two albums are amazing, I do have to add Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness as well.
Gish and Adore are up there as well. Pretty much all of their albums up until their break up are classics and some of the finest music recorded
his articulation !! He's so on point.
Traumatic childhoods tend to make good songwriters, sad but quite true.
Let's be honest, he writes fantastic bangers. The ones on Mellon Collie are absolutely top shelf.
god damn, that was deep, love billy
Billy, us real fans loved the emotional and tonal scope of all your songs.
More "Killer in me is the killer in you" music 🙏
Absolutely beautiful, captivating, and timeless.
Looks cold in the studio.
lol
Billy probably doesn't want to hear this either but The Future Embrace is my favorite of his. (I enjoy it all though)
He'd be happy with that.. He only hides it bc he's fighting with that particular label
Gish and Siamese Dream are two of the best rock LPs of all time. Fight me.
Can't argue that...
in my top 10 albums ever.
Haven’t stopped playing Gish from the moment it came out until now it’s a masterpiece
More than any band their songs take me back to a specific time period in my life.
Great interview
Nobody loves Billy Corgan , more than Billy Corgan
That's what happens when you emotionally neglect and abuse your kids. I mean, look it up.
He's a genius and his music is magic.
The more I get older, the more I listen, understand and respect Billy. Honest, reflective and deep down, a really good person.
amazing artist!
They aren't my favorite band by a long shot and I only know a handful of their songs, but they've had an outsized importance in my musical development. I have a great respect for his approach to creating.
Watch his incredible interview with Rick Beato!
I'm surprised that Billy opened up and showed vulnerability, but it's great that he did. Billy, you're amazing and your art is valued by your fans. F*ck the haters....Don't let them bring you down.
Damn. For the first time I think I can relate to Billy Corgan. I realize why he's so jaded now.
I would love to give Billy a big hug, I think he deserves it. from everybody.
just goes to show you, that regardless of your accomplishments it's impossible to be satisfied if you aren't surrounded by supportive people..... Corgan has always been able to articulate these complex ideas so well....
I totally get what he is saying. It's so tragic that that is/was his perspective. SP music meant so much to so many people. Still does. I hope he fully understands this, now
Billy is a great song writer. Well worth the price of admission
Hopefully now he has found a way to realize and be grateful for his value and talent
Thank you
One of the greats.
What Billy is saying here makes a lot of sense.
His music saved my life many times. Siamese dream is the best album of the 90s along with Adore.
And yet still despite all his rage...
Great Songs Bless him
What an eye opener! Billy deserved better from people.
Billy Corgan is the shit!!! in a incredibly positive way.
What an interview
Ahhh Billy... I'd have asked you for the mellow stuff :) Some of the Pisces Iscariot are my favourite!
I still can’t believe Howard still isn’t in studio. It really is crazy.
Please explain.
@@banditgrovmalet he’s agoraphobic and won’t leave his home. He’s a prisoner of his own madness.
@@TheDudeMinds89 Agoraphobic.
Doesn't he do this from his home? I've read he checked out years ago.
Disarm is a great song, but bullet with butterfly wings is also a great song
Melancholy is definitely a masterpiece album. In the top 5 to have on a deserted island with me.
And this is where brilliant music comes from.
One of the best rock-n-roll guitarists still in the game. People dont know how good he is.
When I ponder question: “What are the MASTERPIECE records of the 90s, first on my list is Melloncollie &TIS. And i’m not even a Pumpkins fanboi - I’m just a fan of awesomeness.
Your music its part of a genarecion! That❤will not repert! Be very happy to know that you are part of a era that its very special❤
I’m about the same age as Billy and also from the Midwest, and for those of you that don’t believe what he’s saying, or think he’s exaggerating, or just don’t understand, he’s telling you the truth. I’ve been exactly there as a musician, and if you come from a place where your parents can’t even appreciate what you do, it’s hard to hear the good things others say
I prefer Disarm to Bullet With Butterfly Wings. There's a compliment about the song.
we love you billy!
I love you, Billy!
Whenever someone says something critical at me I say one of two things:
"Why did you say that?"
and/ or
"Of course you would say that"
If Billy could actually ignore....anything, he would have been critcized far less, IMO. Because he felt he had to react, he made those apt to criticize more powerful. Billy fought back, and was vilified by music media for it.
My dream is that when I release my music, he will listen to it, and enjoy it
Gosh this is golden
The Smashing Pumpkins are incredible.
no matter what i love you billy
I want more disarm. Long time super fan.
Siamese Dream is a masterclass of music making , Revisit ( Mayonnaise ) .
Siamese dream is a masterpiece.
so weird, All ive ever wanted was more Soma more Hummer and more Mayonnaise more Disarm....
Disarm is a masterpiece
But also, please turn up the heat in this studio for the love of god.
I love them God bless
