It's so strange that this album was only 5 years old when I really really got into it. That seems like such a short time now compared to then. Now it's 15 years old and it still seems about the same distance removed. -------- Edit: Reading the lyrics again... is this song about sex? I've always taken it as just general relationship chemistry with Billy Corgan's intermittent nonsensical-ness thrown in. But this one lyric is a bit odd? "Can I look up to you as you look down on me Can I feel in to you as you felt in to me" The first line uses word pairings that have different metaphorical meanings, but with the dichotomy of up and down it gives me an image of actual physical position too. And then the second line is... yeah. Last edited by mizer_unmei : 2010.08.03 at 05:40 AM. |

I was already a Pumpkins fan before the album as Siamese Dream was my favorite album at the time (still is in the running). I remember being highly disappointed with MCIS when it came out. It was too soft and not enough hard rock for my tastes at the time. I only began to appreciate it when I came back to it years later and I matured a bit (ha!). Now the softer songs are my favorites. I love Galapogos, To Forgive, By Starlight, and In the Arms of Sleep as much as the more classic sounding songs on the album. I still think there's a bit too much filler though.

Something rather old, and something rather new that in many ways sounds even older.
