- Day in the life of the Smashing Pumpkins: Morning with Billy Corgan in his hotel room writing a song that will be played for the first time at the concert later that evening.
Billy writes almost every morning and comes to rehearsal with new ideas to show the rest of the group. This song ultimately becomes "The Rose March" - เพลง
For those wondering about his playing:
"Billy is left-handed. He writes with his left hand. However, he
plays the guitar as if he was right-handed. This is because he felt
that it was silly to have his weak hand doing the tough fret-work.
Another reason is that when Billy and his father went to buy a
guitar, Billy asked which was more common. He went with a
right-handed guitar."
DamnitBoy that means he's ambidextrous
Actually it doesn't mean he's ambidextrous. People don't know what that word entirely means
It's automatic since young age. I know cause I write with left hand and play guitar with right hand.maybe it has something with the first time which hand we play guitar with
I'm ambidextrous. I play guitar with my right hand as well.
James B. McGill I learnt left handed as well. It felt wrong for me to learn to play right handed because your picking or strumming hand is where all the feel is. It is also the part that requires most precision. I would say if you are strongly left handed you should learn left handed.
I feel such at peace watching this.
One of the best Artists of our time. Enjoy it and be inspired.
i love how jimmy randomally looks through that telescope hahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think Billy Corgan is one of the most impressionable song writers of our time. His music is the kind that can take you to another place or another time just by the words and music he talks about... I remember seeing there last concert here in Canada during Summersault and was very saddened by the fact that they were done... but when I heard that they were getting back together I got so excited Not bad for a return album Please don t let the music die Billy
Old school song writing..cool!
is it just me or am I obsessed with he's cool handwritting
No matter how old this video is, still great to catch an inside glimpse of WPC working.
true!
Every time I see a Smashing Pumpkins documentary it makes me question my future: Do I want to live a boring life as a normal person, or continue to play music?
ColoredPig Same dilemma bro
keep doing music man!
Keep making music ❤
So you chose being boring commenting on youtube
The difference is society doesnt care about musicians. Hence the starving artist conundrum
god he just overwhelms me in such a great way. i could just stare at him for days & never grow old of his wonder. he is my soul mate.
His way of handwriting and guitar playing is the opposite of kurt's, Billy writes with his left hand, and plays guitar right handed. Vice versa in kurt's case.
no one cares about kurt
@@cullenbrownmusic said no one ever
Kurt was right handed. Billy is left handed but plays guitar with his dominant hand.
Thanks for posting this clip. It is interesting to see him working on a song. To me Billy is the best: he can soothe your soul with both honey sweet love melodies and soul tearing screams.
This is a wonderful gift. Thank you Billy.
Billy Corgan... Real music...Real sound....Real artist...Real energy.
I actually loved the finished version of this song.
If it wasn't for Billy, I don't know where I'd be in life. He's such an inspiration and one of the few people in the world I can really relate to... which is weird since I've never really met him, haha.
I could listen to this forever. 💜
Genius at work. ❤️
I could watch this for hours and hours and hours
My favorite songwriter of all time writing my favorite song of all time. Epic
I love The Rose March and it is wonderful to see a peek of how he made it.
Leftie who plays right
that's exctly the first thing I noticed. I'm also lefthanded and play guitar as right. I think it gives you a broader understanding of your brain.
Pun..
just like me lol
It’s so weird to imagine. lol
U guys are amazing.
beautiful!
This is just amazing :D
an interesting moment in time. i loved it.
this is my new fav pumpkins song! i really hope this gets released somewhere. SO beautiful...
Wish I was there - beautiful song Billy :) I look forward to it's completion.
Thank you, Billy xx 🖤
such a pretty guitar. billy is one of my favorite song writers
writes with his left and shreds righty.. god damnit he's a god
@@PMurray2694 and I meant to say he does it well. I’m sure you don’t
@@andrewtresler6765 roast! hahaha
@@andrewtresler6765 not that uncommon tbh.
@@davidminor4213 I don’t believe you.
@@saintjabroni lot of lefties do things right-handed
just another legend doing his amazing job.
Best singer guitar player of the 90's...not Kurt..it's this man right here.
And forever since it could be argued
Billy Corgan rocks! I lov e his music!
Billy is definitely a great musician!
You see, jimmy is always on Billy’s side. No matter what theyve been thru
They stopped spooning since they got their own rooms tho,he said.
@@ectoplasma5 😂😂😂 wtf dude
@@Bilsuburbians Jimmy really made that joke on some show 😅.
Billy is the man.
so sweet when he works ;) a great musician =)
He looks so serious when he's listening.
i love watching him play
Excelente billy siempre fue un gran compositor y un gran musico que interesante como graba sus demos en un simple grabador de casette y con su micro en un simple mañana en un hotel bien billy sigue asi eres el mejor
billy rules!!
A window into the bubble is always cool.
genius at work
genious!

My heart
haha hes so old school he still uses tapes thats awesome ,,,
tremendo musico es billy!
hell yeah!!!!!
Yup, he's one of the most talented musicians ever. He has inspired me a lot I think. I saw them in Copenhagen, Denmark 27th of february. At first I just didn't know what to expect, but boy, did they kick ass! I just didn't think the Pumpkins anno 2008 would be good, but they proved me wrong!
I'm in love
Billy if you can see this...... =)
You shine!
i love jimmys approval of the song twards the end. so sick.
amazing
to see a genius at work
Billy's one of my musical idols
he's like the rockk Beethoven or something lol
writes pretty much all the songs himself
the guitar/bass parts
great singer
great guitarist
cares about the fans
he's amazing
Great to see Jimmy here.
cool,i just got the american gothic ep and heard this song,and now i c him writing that song!so cool!
I have that exact same pen. I feel special
It's just a birthmark. A big one.
..... and wearing his mickey mouse t-shirt...... Billy, and his guitar... gently....methodically..... destroyed the world. .... the end. :)
Definitely. Plus, it's always good to have a hard copy of your music and it's much easier just to record it on tape than to record it onto a computer or arrange to jump into a studio and lay it down, considering all the prep that goes into laying down a track in studio
i'm 31 and smashing pumpkins was in their prime in my era.....i must admit.....rocket brings back some very fond memories. :D
The Pumpkins was the best live band in the world around 92-93-94 i think. Miss the old Pumpkin style, and energy they had. But they're still great of course.
Rose march❤️
yeah i just noticed that too...cool.
billy serei um grande fã de suas musicas
the rose march sounds awesome...where can i hear a full version?
i do that as well, corgan, another great left handed musician
Hell yea! I write regular with my right, but do signatures and play guitar with my left!
Yeah !!!
ha this is him writing the rose march. awesome
He shows that no genius is anything without constant hard work. This is true both for arts, science and any other thinkable context.
I can totally get how some people dont like his voice, but I LOVE it & I think that he is PLAINLY the MOST talented guitarist & songwriter of the past 20 years...I dont think that there is any ceiling to his level of creativity....there are a lot of REALLY good players out there, but I think Billy can do ANYTHING he wants with music, its his toy & I am SO thankful that he likes to play! :)
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Interesting, that's a cool telescope his got, i saw them during the MAchina tour a fantastic show
Nice place you got here
He's so awesome. Billy needs a family.
Tapes rule!!!
They really don't.

Como me gustaria tener esa cajita de todos los demos reciente que ha hecho mi gran amigo billy seria cool

BC, dude, your sooooo fucking genius..... I fucking love you.. best damn musician ever
