MTV Pick Of The Week 2005-05-09

BILLY CORGAN: WALKING SHADE


Walking Shadebilly corgan, TheFutureEmbrace

look at you now
look at you torn estates
took forever couldn’t wait on words, on sound

I just want you so
you’re everything, so cold
the perfume of your rose in bloom
I just want you so
anywhere I go
the chase, the bells below
taken from my soul

on the 9th day God created shame

I’m out walking shade
to brush these fires aside
to calm the rising fight
to build you a new life

should you choose
I’ve picked the best for you
it’s your turn and my time to test
I’ll second guess the rest

look at you now
look at you nothin’s faced
took advantage of my faith and called me out

I just want you so
you’re everything I’m told
dumb enough to scold this tongue
I just want you so
anywhere I go
a kingdom for your rain
a pocket for your soul
I just want you so
you’re everything although
the risk is getting close to you

I’m out walking shade
the sun is going out
the word is getting round
that I just want you so


MTV PICK OF THE WEEK 2005-05-09
Every week, we here at MTV sit down and decide what's hot, and what's not. If you've ever been watching the screen and noticed a little green bar in top left corner, that reads Fresh - it means it's FRESH. MTV's Pick Of The Week is played once an hour during music hours, and all other interesting info about the current Pick Of The Week can be found right here.



Artist:
Billy Corgan
Video: Walking Shade
Director: P.R Brown
Album: The Future Embrace

Story:
In this artistic video directed by P.R Brown we finally get Billy Corgan solo. We have seen him concur the world with massive success in 90's band Smashing Pumpkins and later a shorter project with not long lasting Zwan. Now it is just Billy. The video is beautifully directed with Billy wearing very old-fashioned outfits. Paper birds, flower tears and Billy also ride one of those pre-historic bicycles with one huge wheel and one really small. P.R Brown has worked with Billy and Smashing Pumpkins before and also Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails. This is a wonderful video and a fantastic comeback from Billy Corgan. Enjoy!

What else: Billy Corgan and friends started up Smashing Pumpkins, an alternative rock group with no boundaries. Smashing Pumpkins went straight to the heart of most alternative rockers in the 90's. Billy Corgan is the son of jazz guitarist. He grew up in Chicago, USA. By the age of 19 he went down to Florida to try out his luck with band The Marked. Billy has also worked in a used records store in Chicago, after returning from failing with The Marked. When being the guest at Swedish Television show "Studio Pop", Billy revealed that since he doesn't want his intellectual mind take over in his creative process, some of the songs on the new album where made in just a couple of hours. First taste of "The Future Embrace" comes here. Go ahead and enjoy the walking shade of Billy Corgan!
