Cuz it is. It's incredibly fun to play live too. So much energy. I don't think you could rock much harder than this song/performance.

Ahh. To be in high school again. This is Smashing Pumpkins at their best. Love 'em.

god I wish I would have seen them at their beginning. I was just getting out of heavy metal and heavy distortion then. Jeez I love them now :)

Man what happened to music? This was incredible had no idea then how great this actually was!

1:15-1:30 their singing together is so great

You could actually hear her throughout the whole song !

I love Siamese Dream era Pumpkins. It's like hardcore for hippy hipsters.

Goddam that solo. Billy is my favorite guitarist! Jimmy my fave drummer!

Can a 90s rock song be any better than that right there?! 😅

James Iha's "I dont give a fuck" strum gets me every time. Immortal.

Clearly. It's really interesting and refreshing to hear her so well. It's sounds raw and pure.

The great 90's, we were so happy and we didn't know it. Long live Gen-X !!

The super hot and mysterious D'Arcy....

Billy Corgan's screams are so authentic, coming from deep down from the bottom of his heart. A soul screaming and asking to be released. Perfect. Great era of rock. It's a great refugee to hide from today's bullxit

This is the best video of Cherub Rock

Thanks SNL - my introduction to the Pumpkins and Billy's snarl "let me out" and 20 years or so later...still a huge fan!

People really don't realize how good his voice is. With all the 'screaming' he does and he can still sound soft and sweet! Talent right there folks!

3:07 even Billy was amazed with his solo!

nailed the solo

Not sure what's more beautiful: D'arcy hitting those high notes or the crowd shot at 2:00....I've watched this video at least 500 times.

jimmy chamberlin is a beast.

decades later we still miss D'arcy

James was above average. Billy is one of the greatest guitarists on the face of this earth. I love seeing him heralded for songwriting, but sheeeit, that man can shred!

one of the greatest songwriters, guitarist is pushing it. every member plays their role perfectly in the pumpkins. All 3 guitar players, james, darcy, and billy are amazing. them as a whole are one of the greatest groups in history. but they couldn't get there without each other.

I love The Smashing Pumpkins. This is just awesome

this album helped to get me thru hell.

Kids, that's what ya call blowing the doors off.

Absofreakinglutly the best on top of the game! Working hard like root’s time! I loved it!

Great song, great performance! ✌️🎶😊

Thank you for muting this for our enjoyment.

Awesome Performance!!!!!

@StevieTVee92 Best guitarist of the 90s was James Dean Bradfield but I agree that these two are criminally underrated. Some of the solos on Gish and Siamese Dream are mindblowing, such as Geek USA, Bury Me and Soma.

What a performance.

Does anyone have Footage of their performance of Geek u.s.a. from this same broadcast. Can't find it anywhere

This is the first time I ever heard the smashing pumpkins I remember my 10 year old brain exploding! haha

You're past potential when you played in one of the greatest bands in one of the greatest decades of music. What was fascinating about D'arcy was that she was the only person who would challenge Corgan The Conqueror. I think people tend to pick on her the most out of the band, when each member had some serious demons throughtout their career. Remember, she made it out of the industry alive. Not many people did in the 90's, and after she left, look what happend to Billy's ego and fame. .

Fuckin great!!!

just froze hearing this on the radio

Fuckin' cool as hell!

D'arcy is my hero

Luv da pumpkins!

The audio blows.

Jimmy chamberlain is an awesome drummer got to be in the top 15 drummers in the world

such a menacing riff.

They were really hot at this point.

darcy! and he nailed the solo

that's so sick

best bit 0:00 to 4:34

I don't care what anyone says....the Pumpkins are a much better band then Candlebox or Sponge.

I agree dude, I've always said Pumpkins songs were the most intricate of the 90s alt rock legends.

Malmsteen and Corgan/Iha are all different guitarists, and are incomparable.

NICE

If you play them fast, then you're good.

Yes

the golden age.

Jimmy Hendrix best of all time Billy rocks in these days

She sure was beautiful in a very plain way. Very beautiful. Man, Cherub is one fucking kickass song.

Darcy was just so hot!

rad shirt Billy

that solo...

looks like MTV´s Studios

I always search for a pre- 2008 version of this song. Jimmy missing from the drums is too much.

elaborate, indicate and prefaced all in the same paragraph. Now that takes skills.

Billy was really cool for about ten minutes there.

Also the song cherokee warrior if you don't like neo classical. Cherokee warrior is almost like a blues rock song. He has so many songs and yet you choose 1 and say OMG hes playing so fast there is no feeling at all to playing. Yet you've only scraped the surface.

i feel bad for D'arcy she went down the rong path after the band

video is much better but sound is not mmh

yeah those power chords are not what you think...some EJ type 3-string/note chords going on...watch closely. and Bill's turnarounds (the D to A) on each verse are atypical as well..until the chorus which are classic opens down at the bottom. he even has missy doing the ej stuff on the turnarounds..watch her fingerings.

proper gear

OMG epic crowd.. this is when smartphones havent invented yet...

they would never dare have anything that sounds like this on SNL today. really sad.

Me too. It was an incredible performance. Molson Park, Barrie, Ontario. August 12th 1994.

The solo is horribly disjointed and..... perfect.

Songwriting is all that really matters and some people today have lost sight of that which is a little depressing for me because some people think you have to play like yngwie or steve vai to be a good guitar player i mean look at Clapton he is a legend but doesnt really play that fast, and all of the legendary alternative stuff like this isnt blazing fast but it sounds amazing

@StevieTVee92 Had it not been for frusciante, id agree with you there

What is this from!?❤

Sound quality definitely not in HQ, this is sadly an under-powered version from an audio perspective

Nobody shreds a guitar like Dr. Sheldon Cooper.

Will love D'Arcy for ever. She was so under rated to my taste. We can ear here perfect bass line and extremely sweet back vocals. Smashing produced some more good tracks after she gone, but to me it was a copy of Smashing not the genuine ... It is just my comment. See one of the video of their last album. The one which involves a woman dancing beautifully, strangely blond like .... Somewhere he is still influenced and miss her whatever he can say.
