Mellon Collie re-imagined

I thought it might be interesting to see what it would be like to split the Smashing Pumpkins album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness by heavier tunes versus the lullabies. Aside from putting "Zero" as the first track of the heavy disc, I pretty much kept the same sequence that appears across the album.

The vinyl edition of the album featured a much different track sequence from the CD edition altogether, taking advantage of the format's capabilities/limitations.

Here's my take. I came up with the titles all by myself. Best enjoyed by making a playlist from an mp3 rip.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness: Quiet

And from that album, here's one of the greatest videos of all time, "Tonight, Tonight".

The couple is played by Tom Kenny and Jill Talley, who just began appearing on Mr. Show right about this time.
