- Zero (Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness, 1995) ‘Wanna go for a ride?’ Yes please. There are longer and more grandiose tracks in The Smashing Pumpkins’ back-catalogue, but none have greater immediacy or vicious economy than this Mellon Collie single.
- Cherub Rock (Siamese Dream, 1993) One of the greatest album openers of all time, Cherub Rock arrived with its avalanche of nervy riffs and free-flowing fuzz to announce that The Smashing Pumpkins were leaving the suffocating underground behind with their sights set on the more open air of arena-rock superstardom.
- Bullet With Butterfly Wings (Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness, 1995) A year on from the death of Kurt Cobain, it felt like the loud/quiet template that had defined early-’90s alt.rock was played out, somewhat.
- Mayonaise (Siamese Dream, 1993) Sometimes, it’s all about the little things. Billy Corgan has repeatedly explained that the ninth track on Siamese Dream was the product of a host of unlikely random inspirations.

- “Cherub Rock” (from Siamese Dream, 1993) One thing that was lost over time, even by Mellon Collie, was Corgan’s ability, or at least desire, to write rock songs that were aggressive and anthemic and pummeling and affirming all at once.
- “1979” (from Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness, 1995) A lot of the biggest Smashing Pumpkins songs are alt-rock heavyweights that could find pop success in the specific landscape of the ’90s.
- “Soma” (from Siamese Dream, 1993) Next to — and paired with — “Disarm” to form the shattering emotional center of Siamese Dream, there’s the album’s monolithic centerpiece “Soma.”
- “Thru The Eyes Of Ruby” (from Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness, 1995) If “Tonight, Tonight” suggested everywhere Mellon Collie would go, the album’s monumental aspirations are epitomized in its two titanic epics, “Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans” and “Thru The Eyes Of Ruby.”
