It just happens on its own. "Let me give the world to you my love/let me show you what I'm thinking of" seems like a perfect lyric for one of her songs.

As for why I would want to imagine her singing anything, she has a great, powerful voice :thumbsup

Here's hoping for a 10 CD MCIS re-release.

It would be the greatest thing to ever happen.

An unreleased Adore demo. One of many others. Some I can think of off the top of my head:

Gish - Hippy Trippy, Hey Hey, La Dolly Vita (alt versions), Lock Me Up, Magnetic Happiness

Mellon Collie - Speed, Towers of Rabble, Dick or Peter, Elsie, Flamboyant, Jupiter's Lament (full band), Ugly (multiple alternate versions), Magna Mellow, Receive My Signal

Adore - Grab the Mountain, Cash Car Star, Eye (alt. version), Tear (Lost Highway version)

Machina - Death Boogie, Promise, Pale Scales, Sleeping Giant, Without You (Full band)


Not to mention, plenty of others that we don't even have names for. When you think of the reissues, don't think of the albums, think of the bonus tracks.

This man speaks the truth. Her rendition of O Holy Night is epic as well. She is definitely one of the top vocalists ever.

They recorded 5 versions of Cherry? I didn't know that. And Cherry is one of my favorite MCIS b sides.

When it comes to b-sides and extras, isn't it going to be hard to divide between Siamese Dream and Pisces Iscariot? I'm sure there won't be any crossover, but I hope there will be a good amount of material on each.

I really hope these re-releases are along the lines of boxsets (even if they release smaller packages for casual buyers, and big limited edition things for hardcore fans), and I think they should include, among loads of other stuff of course, the singles from their respective albums (w/ their artwork, etc.). Although that wouldn't work when it came to Mellon Collie / The Aeroplane Flies High. Would be cool for everything else though.
As my tutor, old bubble face, used to say: "make love and be merry, for tomorrow you may catch some disgusting skin disease."

I'm not sure that they did. It's possible, but I think the original poster might be thinking of all the different versions of Ugly they recorded (which I believe is 3-4). If there are alt. versions of Cherry, I'd definitely want to hear them.

Indeed. Although, I have a hunch that 48 chords is actually Blank Page. But still, the more unknown stuff, the better.

Man, so many of those demos Rotting Apples listed - I've never even heard of! Weird. It's a shame LMGTWTY will miss out on your 10 sika. I would say the best version though was during the 98 tour (although 2007s has a trippy intro). Machina II's is a little more cheesy. But the accoustic one is so so SAD :jamescry

Anyway it's time for me to drop the bomb

Whatever doesn't end up getting put on Gish or SD, gets put on PI. Same as whatever doesn't end up with MCIS can spill over onto Aeroplane. You'd think so, anyway.

I hope it includes all the b-sides as well as rarer out-takes, as I don't have them all on CD. It would be nice if the booklet had comments about them all by Billy too, a bit like on Pisces.

He's definitely got his work cut out to make a new album, re-master 3 old ones and go through all those old recordings in the next 6 months or so...

And as for him knowing nobody who listens to full albums... he and his friends need to start buying some better albums then :D

Good interview :)
