Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What song are these lyrics from? "I miss me I miss everything I'll never be"

Answer: Rocket

The two girls on the cover of "Siamese Dream" (the album this song is on) are D'arcy's sisters. I don't think they look a thing like her!

2. What "Gish" song are these lyrics from? "Though it seems hard to reach through this life Your blue and hopeless life".

Answer: Daydream

"Gish" was The Pumpkins' first album. Because D'arcy sings this song, this was the first time we really got to hear her beautifull voice.

3. Name this song: "Goodnight, to every little hour that you sleep tite May it hold you through the winter of a long night And keep you from the loneliness of yourself"

Answer: Farewell And Goodnight

This is the only song that features all four members' voices.

4. "If you have to go don't say goodbye If you have to go don't you cry If you have to go I will get by Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side" What is the title of this somewhat sad song?

Answer: For Martha

This song was written for Billy's mother, Martha, who died shortly after the release of "Mellon Collie and the Infinant Sadness". That may explain the mood of the the album, "Adore".

5. Name this song: "Feel it Break your bones Mr. Jones Taste me As I bleed Taste my need"

Answer: Spaceboy

This song was written for Billy's youngest brother, Jesse, who was born with mild cerebral palsy and Tourette's syndrome, as well as heart problems and other chromosomal disorders that caused him to be slower than other children. Billy always watched over and took care of Jesse.

6. What "Pisces Iscariot" song are these lyrics from? "Serve yourself No one else can do for you like you And no one else fails like me In my eyes I burn alive Fly like a bird No more words just you and I High in the sky"

Answer: Starla

According to Netphoria.com, Billy wrote this song after meeting a girl named Starla. Later, when Billy asked her what she thought about the song, he found out that her name was actually Darla!

7. What popular single is this line from? "Graceful swans of never topple to the earth"

Answer: Thirty-three

Billy initially planned to write two more songs to go along with 'Thirty-Three': 'Sixty-Six' and 'Nintey-Nine', but never really got around to it. He chose the number 'thirty-three' because of a tarot reading he had that said that his life was going to drastically change at the age of thirty-three.

8. "My angel wings Are bruised and restrained" Name this song.

Answer: Today

Billy said in a video that this song was the product of about eight months of not being able to write anything good. He was really depressed and he was even "sleeping on D'arcy's floor" for a while. So he eventually wrote this song kind of as a joke, saying 'today is the greatest day I've ever known' when he was actually at one of the lowest points in his life.

9. "And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues" This line is from which other popular Smashing Pumpkins single?

Answer: 1979

Billy wrote this song based on a memory he had of waiting at a stoplight in his car as it was raining really hard. He also said that there isn't really a significant meaning to the year 1979, but it rhymes well!

10. What is the title of this song? "I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind You're mine forever now"

Answer: Stand Inside Your Love

This song, according to Billy, was literally written in ten minutes, and not a single word was changed from the original lyrics.
