I saw Billy play guitar with his dad on stage in Chicago. I saw were he got some of his chops. What a talented singer/song writer.

This album was such a diversion away from the typical sonic wall that was the pumpkins signature sound, a fabulous and IMHO some what underrated album from the pumpkin fan base always looking for more of their earlier notes. From Lull to Adore.... what an amazing journey of growth and talent!

Was a massive Pumpkins Fan and saw them in Bris-vegas, Australia on their Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness Tour - Amazing.  Kind of lost touch with them by this album but this song is great.

I've heard Billy Corgan called lots of things, but talentless? The man could play guitar in circles around most of today's rock scene. Dismiss his singing, harp on his lyrics, go on and on about his singing (wait, we've covered the voice...) but for the love of Pete, don't dare say a thing about his guitar playing.

I bumped this to 10, but I keep coming back to it and loving it more. It makes me breathe and smile easier. I don't ask for much more from a song than that, these days.

I don't have enough musical talent or knowledge to judge Corgan's guitar playing, but his singing works for me in only a few types of songs—"Disarm" and "Soma" from Siamese Dream come to mind. Haven't really followed them since they re-grouped, though.

Worlds away from the usual Pumpkin-smashing.  "Hypnotic and soothing" is exactly right.

Wow.  Okay, I wasn't in the middle of a deep response to someone else's comment or e-mail, but this goes to 10. SO moody and ethereal...  Calming and soothing... Not what I'd expect from the harsh Billy Corgan vocals - and banjo? Just wow. I really sorta love this song. {#Meditate}

the voice fits the music; the music and lyrics are sometimes different and complex, but there's enuff of it worth listening to....so, as I said, the voice fits....
