definitely a band who did video with some style

my choice would be Try, Try Try

a hard... HARD video to watch indeed

has anybody seen the short film for that?

im not 100% clear at what the short film is about, but its provocative indeed

anyway this was their last and finest effort

and they really hit a grand slam with the intention of what every one of their videos aim to do, even if the main story didnt feel like a real pumpkins video, when the flashbacks into this whole suburbanite, perfect life that we get to see in so many of the pumpkins videos, it seemed like they had perfected everything they aimed to achieve
 
wow this is a coincidence, I'm wearing my "ZERO" t-shirt and a fourm come up about SP.

I think all their videos have cool themes. My favorite would have to be 1979, i freaking would KILL to have the car in that video... Plus I think it really captures young free life, I mean the party, thats just classic.

I also like Today cause I've always wanted to be an ice cream truck driver... I swear if I can find one thats gonna be my car!

Smashing Pumpkins rule, I'm so upset that I didn't get to see them live before they broke up.... but then again it wasn't the same after D'arcy left. *prays for reunion tour*
 
tonight, tonight.....no doubt in my mind. it's also my favorite SP song. unfortunately the only time i saw them in concert (one of the last ones before they called it quits) they never played it :sad:
 
"try, try, try" is a lethal video, I voted for it but like "stand inside your love" and "tonight, tonight" just as much, actually they're all great, "cherub rock" is kind of the sentimental favorite because it got me hooked on the band that instant I first saw it and ran out to get the cd, rest is history as they say

obviously I haven't seen every video by every band, but their videos were consistently the best of any band in the 90s

BEST Pumpkins song. Best Pumpkins video. Ever.

Seeing that fat bastard rub his nipples just ruins it. It honestly would have been a work of art if Billy wasn't so obsessed with fat porn.
 
swallow take your hooters girl and your hot wings and move aside, for the real "more than a mouthful" is moving in

actually, the live video for "geek usa" may be my favorite, in some small club with the psychotic clowns stage diving, maybe just because it's such a great live performance and psychotic clowns always funny
 
today always makes me giggle
tonight tonight is one of the top 5 videos ever imo
ava adore and zero are pure pumpkins and really capture that thing that made them who they were.
How friggin scary does Jimmy Chamberlin look in Zero??!!!haha!
 
I'm not really familiar with their videos.. but I've recently been getting very into them, I will have to give a looksee
 
that's evolved to be my favorite Pumpkins' song over the years, though I love that video, it's really too hard to choose a favorite, but I went with the epic "Try, Try, Try" which I think is so incredibly real, dark and ironic

I have never seen this clip and would love too- Geek USA is my fave pumpkins song- I love how it rocks out and the lyrics are great too.....

I voted for Today- Billy looked oh so cute driving his little Ice cream truck over the countryside and James in a dress- ya gotta love that and then the paint at the end, well it must be 'art' then, hey?????- no seriously I kinda left the punpkins scene after Mellon Collie, and believe me I was a huge, in fact massive die-hard pumpkins fan, but I didn't really go for all of the morbid kinda stuff of the following albums and they just didn't 'rock' for me anymore, so I havnt really seen many of these clips, but of the ones that I have seen Today and maybe Rhinocerous are the best:)
 
yes today definitely is one of the funniest clips around.
i also like the toilet papering in 1979, oh and billy looks spesh in perfect cause hes in his cowboy hat..

i serisouly think billy looks like gilbert blythe when he has hair.
speaking of which...
i think its cherub rock where billy has his long long hair?
damn that cracks me up.

and speaking of rockstar long hair, why oh why did eddie do that to his head?

and you call yourself a fan...

yes true, true....... :|

I saw it yesterday on launch.com They have tone of Pumpkins videos.... Try Try Try is unbelievably depressing, but a quality video with a lot to say. My vote still goes for Ava Adore though.

damn I love that band... why must all good things come to an end? :crack:

I still want that dvd.

I have not seen many but I love Disarm, so that got my vote.
 
The video for Untitled was awesome. I really liked the video collage idea. I thought it was a good video to chronicle them.

The video to 1979 is just plain fun.
