Smashing Pumpkins - Greatest Hits Video Collection explicit_lyrics

This was a replacement because my ex-wife threw mine away, this is some of the most famous smashing pumpkins videos. Sound quality and video quality is very good and works perfectly on a high fi system

As a music video lover I can honestly say these videos are amazing. Siva: It was Ok Rhinoceros: Again more indie video, nothing amazing. Cherub Rock: The song is awesome, the video looks as if the High school A/V club filmed it. Today: The best siamese dream video, when I watch it, it reminds me of when I was in middle school, kidding around with friends. Disarm: Moving song, musically simple but lyrically (Which the Pumpkins are probably in the top 5 in Rock) they show more depth than garage band hype. Rocket: I like the band preformance better than the kids building the rocket ship, I could have lived without "Spanky and the little rascals buliding an interstellar vehicle!" Bullet with Butterfly wings: Dirty mud people, rock on!!! 1979: I love the video, I love the song but being born in 1979, I feel I'm a little biased. The anecdotes about the original version of the video were just hilarious. My favorite song from twilight to starlight, the whole double disk favorite is Muzzle. ZERO: Those actors sold it for me, they were in character and eerie. Tonight, Tonight: The song was POP ROCK (the acoustic reprise in the box set is awesome)The Video still a ground breaker. Thirty three: I love Thirty-three, visually they were stunning. Thirty three is simple in concept, the directors eye for scenery is stunning. I cannot use the word stunning enough, it was beautiful. I think of a very special person when I see that video. Ava Adore: The video ruled on so many levels. The set was well thought out. The costumes had style, the direction was dark (Dom&Nic directer NIN'S perfect drug)On tv they blocked the 70's porn meets ancient greece which really upset me. It wasn't that bad. Perfect: My favorite song off of adore, it was good to see most of the 1979 cast come back to be in the video. The Everlasting Gaze: The song is awesome, when I hear the song it carrys the name of the album (Machina: The machines of God), it makes me feel and imagine the engines of hell feeding the great machine, the dark rusting industrial vison of Corgan made this song. Stand inside your love: This video was voted as being one of the worst ever by MTV viewers, these are of course the same viewers who listen to Staind and Limp Bizkit, enough said. It was a hard video to watch, it is weird and that Oscar Wilde quote threw some people off for sure, they probaly said "That dude from Willy Wonka's deep man". Kids today have about as much depth as a barbie pool. Try, Try, Try: This video is crazy, I love it. The whole whoring for heroin while pregnant thing bugs me alot but it's honest, I've seen it and lived through things like that, maybe that's why it bugs me? The only thing about the video that is iritating is the view of the "american family" I am tired of seeing British, or european directors showing us "American life", is that what they really see us like? That was about as American as the Ming dynasty, We are not that bad, Europeans were the ones who started nasty things like the crusades, colonialism, and of course Ab-Fab. The live shows are ok, nothing to write home about. The documentry and even the format is by far better than most Collections today. Buy this DVD, MTV will not show anything worth while, you can stand Lil' Bow Wow and Creed for only so long, so why torture yourself buy this DVD.

Not only have Smashing Pumpkins been a favorite band of mine for a long time, but their music videos always impress me and always (well, most of the time) seem to capture what the song is about. So naturally when I heard that they were releasing all of their videos onto DVD/VHS I was ecstatic. Seeing how I don't have a DVD player, I had to get the VHS version. Now if you are hesitant to buy the VHS version, don't be. For one thing, the whole video, beginning to end is over 2 hours and features all of their music videos (Aside from The End Is The Beginning Is The End, which I will point out, the DVD is missing as well) plus a ton of extra stuff that I imagine was on the DVD as well. Here is the tracklisting, straight from the back of the box: 1.Siva 2.Rhinoceros 3.Cherub Rock 4.Today 5.Geek USA (Live) 6.Disarm 7.Rocket 8.Bullet With Butterfly Wings 9.1979 10.Zero 11.Tonight, Tonight 12.Thirty Three 13.Ava Adore 14.Perfect 15.The Everlasting Gaze 16.Stand Inside Your Love 17.Try, Try, Try 18.An Ode To No One (Live at Final Metro Performance) 19.I Am One (Previously Unreleased) 20.Today (Outtakes With Commentary) 21.Rocket (Alternate Performance Cut) 22.Bullet With Butterfly Wings (Outtakes With Commentary) 23.1979 (Documentary With Commentary) 24.Tonight, Tonight (Documentary With Commentary) 25.Thirty-Three (Documentary With Commentary) 26.Ava Adore (Documentary With Commentary) 27.The Everlasting Gaze (Outtakes With Commentary) 28.Stand Inside Your Love (Outtakes With Commentary) Overall, I fail to see how any Pumpkins fan could be disappointed with this collection. Nearly all of their videos are astounding and they're all here (If I had to pick a favorite video, mine would be 1979.) So, if you're like me, and are too cheap to buy a DVD player, then the VHS version of this is excellent. Don't worry about them skimping on content, cuz believe me, there is plenty here to keep you busy.

i'm an old man who occasionally needs a pumpkins fix and this does the job

This is so great because you not only get the videos. You can watch the outtakes. You can watch while listening to commentary from the band and the directors. You learn things about how much their early videos cost. You learn one of Billy's fear's that he never revealed before this DVD. You get a live version of 2 songs. There is a short film based upon their last video 'TRY' from Try,Try,Try. You learn how they did all the videos from crane work, to set building(and who has them now), to which cameras they used, to what books, films and film makers inspired them in making their own videos. It's complete pumpkins.

To restate what others have said here, if you're a Pumpkins fan, this is a grail of sorts, collecting all the videos from the Gish era to live performances the not-released-inside-America final short film. The band commentary, while unfortunately slanted towards comments from Billy, are extremely insightful to the band's (or should I say Billy's) creative processes, and showed me a side of the Pumpkins I'd not seen before. If there were to be a DVD release of the VH1 Storytellers appearance, that added to this DVD and the Vieuphoria film would constitute a grand trifecta of the audiovisual SP experience.

I like most of their music videos although it is little complicated to use compared to other music videos. Retro images & 90's sounds is like the Beatles and the Nirvana combined.

AWESOME A+ CHEAP DEALS BETTER PRICES GREAT DVD

80年代ＰＶはチープだけど創意工夫に溢れたキレイでカッコ良くて楽しくて面白くて、 名作と呼べるような映像作品が数多く作られたけど、90年代ＶＣはどうなんだろ？ このスマパン作品を観た限りでは、あんまり面白くはなかったみたいだな。 ＭＴＶもロックに興味のない一般人も巻き込むようなパワーは既に薄れていて実質的には廃れてたみたいだし。 音楽的にはとってもカッコイイんだけど、映像的にはアート・スクール出身でオッサンになってもいつまでも学生気分の抜けない アート気取りがカッコつけてるだけの代物にしか思えないものが多い。もっと遊びながら作って欲しいわあ。 あの必殺の超名曲“Today”ですら単なる悪フザケだし。もったいねー。そんな遊んでねーで、ちゃんと真面目にビデオ作れ。 モノクロの映像が美しい“Disarm”、サイエンス・フィクションではなくスペース・ファンタジーとしてのレトロＳＦな“Rocket”は楽しい。 トーキング・ヘッズのバーニング・ダウン・ザ・ハウスを思い出した。子供たちの表情も魅力的な本ヴァージョンも良いけど、 演奏シーンのみの裏ヴァージョンもカッコイイ。 “Bullet with Butterfly Wings”映像的にはキレーキレーなものではないので、諸手を挙げて大絶賛する気にはならないが、 とにかく曲が超カッコイイ。映像作品としては大したことないけど、曲のカッコ良さで補正がなされてると言えるかも。 ビデオ作品として名作とは言えないけど、言えないんだけど、言えないんだけどさー、この曲はもぉーとにかく大好き。 “Tonight, Tonight”ファンタジー童話みたいな完成版も美しくて可愛くて楽しいが、 裏のメイキング・ヴァージョンもリラックスしてて微笑ましい。 裏ヴァージョンの方は、完成版とは別にちゃんと作ったアナザー・ヴァージョンというよりも、単なるメイキング風景が多い。 つーか、そもそもアウトテイクスとかドキュメンタリーとか書いてあるわ。どっちにしても、それはそれで楽しめる。 ダーシーのオフショットとか垣間見れるのは良いよね。 クソガキどもとコンビニ店員イハと傍観者こうがんシリーズ？“1979”、“Perfect”、その続編？“Try, Try, Try”と、 そのロング・ヴァージョンのドラマ編“Try – a short film”は、一言で言うと胸糞？観ていて楽しくなるようなものではない。 いかにも90年代オルタナ価値観な荒んだカップルを描く映像作品。2000年のカリフォルニア・ドリーミン。 あれ？そーいえば、21曲目の“Untitled”って？と思ってたら、EXTRASから左押しかい。 ロック／ポップの映像作品として最高峰にあるとは全く思えない。これを観て逆に80年代って、この手の作品にめっちゃ意欲的に 取り組んでいて、実際（出来自体はチープなものではあっても）立派な結果を残してたんだなと再認識した。 80年代ＰＶの面白さを逆説的に確認することになった。 決して悪くはないし、スマパンの音楽自体はめっちゃカッコイイから、何の問題もなく観られるけど、超楽しくはない。 こんなの、ただカッコイイだけ。映像としてカッコつけ過ぎ。この手の作品は、もっとユルくてヌケてた方が面白い作品が生まれるよね。 だから、スマパンＶＣのベスト作品はRocketかなあ。コレはカワイイ。 Disarm、Tonight, Tonightも良いけど完成度高過ぎ。オマヌケ度が足りないのだ。 と、何だかんだ言っても結局一番好きなのは、Bullet with Butterfly Wingsだったりして。燃えるぜ！

This is great for the smashing Pumkins fan,fast shipping,i recommand this to everyone

スマパン全盛の映像は絶対見る価値があります。スマパンのメロディ、歌詞、これは時間が経ってもたまらなく好きですね。
