I also love that, in the end, when Corgan has run out of things to say, “1979” just ends. It also picked up momentum - and an almost-crunchy guitar - during the bridge, when he’s talking about being in a car “faster than we thought we’d go” which puts me in mind of being in that older dude’s Trans Am when he hit 120 on Herndon Ave, back when you could actually drive that fast on Herndon between Blackstone Ave and Highway 99. I’m a few years older than Billy Corgan, and I remember 1979 as the year I tried - and mostly failed - to get as many of my friends as was humanly possible to get into The Clash, a band that knew about subverting their fans’ expectations, and also the year my lifelong love for both Bob Dylan and Neil Young kicked into gear.Īnyways, “1979” basically loped along at a mid-tempo pace, quiet guitars pushing it along, and picked up just enough momentum during the keyboard decorated chorus so you knew it was the chorus. Especially if you were anywhere near a radio in 1995. The thing, of course, about sprawling double-albums - especially in the CD era where they were off the equivalent of a 3-disc vinyl record - is that you get a chance to stretch out, do tracks that aren’t necessarily what the fans expect.Īnd so with that freedom Billy Corgan wrote an absolutely tremendous pop single, which literally sounded like nothing his band had yet done, a song that was comparable to The Police’s “ Every Breath You Take,” especially in how it restricted a world-class inventive drummer to playing the simplest 4/4.įeaturing drum loops, keyboards, ghostly sampled vocals and a lyric that was a pure instant nostalgia play on the level of “ Night Moves” or “ In The Street,” “1979” was one of those songs that could burrow into your soul.
