You probably dont give a shit but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
I agree completely! This is a song that I have to turn up the volume as high as I can whenever I hear it. They have other great songs, but this is at a higher level!
I bought the Batman and robin soundtrack on CD and vinyl just to hear this masterpiece. I remember when it came out I was obsessed one of their best songs
If you were a teenager at the time of the release of this song, I think there's not a whole lot more that can wrap up the 90's for us than these kinds of songs. There wasnt music before it,nor after the 90s that had such an affect on who you became. Maybe I'm just stuck in that time frame in my head, but I dont think so. The 90's... imho, best decade ever.
I agree entirely. It's as if nothing remotely compares... a vibratory time-capsule of authenticity. Although I find Gaga's new '911' refreshing on many levels; Art is still alive.
I am not the biggest Smashing Pumpkins fan. I like some of their stuff. But this song is awesome. It rocks bigtime at full volume. The lyrics are good. The drums are hypnotic. It was a great song in 1997. It still is today.
absolutely agree ! 26 years later . . . and my music style has evolved into this: ua-cam.com/video/Wpl28kp5WVA/v-deo.html It also rocks bigtime @ full vol. The voice is sweet. The bass line, guitars & effects are hypnotic as well.
Japan always had the best version of singles and albums. Special songs no other version containted. As a teen I was always buying the japanese version to get these special treats.
Basically, when you are listening to the song, watching the video and catching frames of the movie in the background - you can actually think that Batman and Robin was a proper dark movie ;)
these Batman movies are visually impressive, great audiovisual show for the big screen than the hallmark tv versions of Nolan trilogy with a lazy montage and long duration, this movie is campy ok, but a great show anyway :)
This is one of the late-golden period Pumpkins very best. It fits Corgan's general motif, dark, slightly sinister, etc. It's a musically superior representative of a late 90s alt/electronica hybrid. This should be soundtrack for an Edgar Allan Poe reading, not Arnold Schwarzenegger saying "Hey Batman! ICE to meet you!"
yep, I'd say this would be the very last moment of the pumpkins' golden period, if you include ava adore in that and don't end it on the aeroplane flies high. I only wish we got to hear jimmy chamberlain on this, this drummer is wayyyy too reliant on the snare to fill in the gaps of his playing... he sounds like he should be playing in a drum circle, not the pumpkins.
Who came back after Joel's Death? Even though B&R was bad, he wasn't a bad director. He made a lot of Cult Classics like Falling Down, St. Elmo's Fire, and The Lost Boys. He even apologized about the disappointment of these movies. All I hope for is that he can be at peace.
She's georgeous but she was terrible in this film, mostly the script's fault though, I don't think she's a bad actor but she really seemed to just not give a fuck like as if she knew the movie was going to be terrible but it was too late to back out

It's on literally no albums apart from the soundtrack, not to forget Batman and Robin is arguably the worst Batman film ever. Unfortunately means this will always be a hidden gem
Songs from movie soundtracks ride the success of the film; it almost doesn't matter if the song is any good or not. I mean, there's been some woeful songs that have sold millions from being off a hugely successful movie. Unfortunately, Batman + Robin was a bad movie and bombed at the box office, so this excellent track got lost.
I miss when soundtracks were good avenues for exposure, and when they were jam-packed with good music, and variety too. Now its like... a song here or there. Whatever, these were the BEST times.
It's amazing how, changing something like the tempo of a song, can give a song a completely different feel or meaning. For example: this version of this song compared to the slower, darker version used for The Watchmen trailer; or Nine Inch Nails version of Hurt, compared to Johnny Cash's cover; or Johnny Cash's version of Ring Of Fire, compared to Wall Of Voodoo's slower, darker live cover version, from their Ugly Americans In Australia live album.
i always thought that the pumpkins missed an album between Mellon Collie and Adore: that album would be filled with songs like this one, eye, saturnine (the rotten apples version) blissed and gone, and a lot of great songs that rocked the $&%V out of the electronica scene.
Anyone else obsessed with the fact that there is an alternate more sinister version of this song featured in the Watchmen 2009 trailer, titled "The Beginning is the End is the Beginning?"
Heck yeah, man. Do you know the story behind Mayonaise's lyrics? It was the last song they wrote for Saimese Dream, and Billy Corgan didn't have one singular idea for the song but compiled a bunch of one-liners and stuff that he came up with during the writing of the album that he didn't have anything else to go with, and the result is... well, one of the best SP songs to date.
Blame kids like feminem lol. Making songs without any effort and put random words, make billions lol. Since then no bands put effort in their music, not even their heart on it lol.
I had watched this movie for the time (on t.v.) around late 1990's. Batman Forever was the first Batman movie i had introduced to my kid sister back in 1995. We were both hooked on U2 HM, TM, KM, KM. When Batman and Robin came to theatres, she went to watch it with friends and loved it so. In the past months, she had introduced this movie to the eldest of her two young daughters (ages 6 and 3), And she loved it. So Heartwarming to see the legacy of Batman move on from one generation to the next, even in the form of older movies.
The opening lines sometimes come into my head to this day ever since I used to watch the video in 1997. The sewers belch me out The heavens spit me out 🖤
I remember seeing this on MTV back in high school. The music video was released before the movie as a teaser. That shot where Mr. Freeze is looking at the dancing ballerina in the snow globe really made me think this was going to somewhat of a deep movie. Of course well all know now what was the abortion to follow.
Lyrics The sewers belch me up The heavens spit me out From Ether's tragic I am born again And now I'm with you now Inside your world of wow To move in desires made of deadly pretends Till the end times begin Is it bright where you are Have the people changed Does it make you happy you're so strange And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame You can watch the world devoured in it's pain Strange Climb my ribcage to The replays run for you Unhook my lights to peek behind the flash For I am crystal chrome I am shatter dome I am Kremlin king of angels avenged To destroy the end Is it bright where you are Have the people changed Does it make you happy you're so strange And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame You can watch the world devoured in it's pain The zeppelins rain upon us The guns of love disastrous A shadow lies amongst you To defy the future cast Is it bright where you are Have the people changed Does it make you happy you're so strange And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame You can watch the world devoured in it's pain Strange Strange
I was around the same age. At that time we thought the movie was awesome. Now, I admit it's a bit corny. But I'm from the hood and I think Bone Thugs N Harmony had a video out too for this movie I think. So, that shit to us was crazy. This soundtrack wasn't bad. And I want to throw it out there, that I feel this band deserves more recognition.
@@jwhipp I agree it definitely could suit the album .. definitely more so than any other of their albums .. it’s still bit of a unique song for them I’d say
I love the song, the music video, AND the movie! It may not be the best batflick out there, but it sure beats the hell out of most new movies these days
The batman movies would always suck me in with a soundtrack banger! This and the U2, Prince, and Seal tracks were all timeless tracks from Batman soundtracks.
I know how people feel about the movie ( I am actually at peace with it). But this song slaps so hard. Fantastic Batman song (those lyrics are so meta), peak grunge song, peak Smashing pumpkins. So underrated!
Yep. I feel the same chills as with You Know You're Right from Nirvana. With both songs I wonder what it would be like if they kept going. Perfection... I mean it would be for sure perfection :))
It was campy as fuck, but I’d have to say they definitely had some studio interference considering the marketing needed to sell the toys and shit. When a movie becomes a selling point for that kinda crap, you forget what makes a movie decent. It could have been a great movie without the dumbass one-liners, too.
The song won a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance and received 4 technical nominations at the MTV Video Music Awards. But it also received a Razzie nom for Worst Song, losing against the entire score for The Postman
@@midnightfury4584 The Razzie nominated the song because it was associated with the Batman film that has an infamous reputation for being a 2 and a half hour long toy commercial. Tbh, I enjoyed this film more than Batman Forever. It’s a guilty pleasure for me. The film is unquestionably bad, but Arnold Schwarzenegger and Uma Thurman made the film for me.
This is the best song of SP and movies of Batman. The lyric: Is it bright where you are, have the people changed, does it makes you feel so happy? and you are so strange. (...) You can watch the world devour in its pain. This so philosophic and real when someone has lost its world. That´ s Batman. Only Billy Corgan could understand that and write it!
amazing song, and an extraordinary music video -- not just part of it because of the bassist girl (D'arcy Wretzky) ... but likewise comes a great deal of (visual) beauty from the strange chemistry of the "analogous" faces of Corgan and Wretzky... to which the femininity of guitarist James Iha adds even more... floating in itself is a huge device too in this video... and luckily we don't have to see very much of the movie (which is just crap in my op) nevertheless, if I only heard this song, without MTV or YT, without video, without screens, in complete darkness, it would still be a mind-blowing experience... true artists
This is interesting to me because it’s almost like Smashing Pumpkins by numbers. They always tried to be different, new, original, memorable. Here it sounds like they weren’t under those pressures and it just rocks. Love it.

This is a much cooler (pun not really intended) song than that movie deserved.
Yes!
In this video, Billy shows us his vogue dance moves.
Batman and Robin does not deserve a theme song as good as this. At least the Pumpkins held their end of the deal.
It really doesn't match the movie. It's really much better than the movie. Grim, dark and gothic whilst the movie was just silly.

B&R was a big screen show, goofy but impressive living and colorful comic book
The underlying story of mr. Freeze is a deep tragic story in the movie. Until it needed to be more full of Camp than the met's art gala this week!
Which is sad. I'm sure if Burton had directed this movie, he would've brought the tragic story of Mr. Freeze to life.

I love the song, the music video, AND the movie! It may not be the best batflick out there, but it sure beats the hell out of most new movies these days
Score?? You're here? And you like the movie? Huh... would love to hear you out.
The song is soooooo underrated and shouldve been top of the charts! I love this song and the music video!
it was definitely in rotation on MTV when it came out, but I don't think I've heard it since at least 1998!
@@tinytanksfun fact: this song made MTV’s end of the year countdown in 97.
I've seen every Batman, Superman, Terminator and Star Wars movie.....I've watched the world devour in it's pain.
Hearing this as a kid and finding it and hearing it years later it's quite the experience 😎☺️☺️
One of my favorite SP songs
So good IK
this is a masterpiece.
The batman movies would always suck me in with a soundtrack banger! This and the U2, Prince, and Seal tracks were all timeless tracks from Batman soundtracks.
oooh those high school days!!!
Deckardpr no shit! CO 99, at least we grew up when music and MTV had substance
class of 2000!
Yr 12 graduation! Lol .. Not sure if the new album will live up. Is all hope lost..
💎🧡
I feel you
I love how Billy Corgan looks like he could be a Post-Rock themed super villain in this one.
This song is not on spotify!! WTF! one of the best songs
Not on Apple Music either. Sucks.
I remembered this song because of Corgan’s birthday, happy birthday dear billy !
The sewers belch me up
the heavens spit me out...
from ether's tragic I am born again.
🙊How is anyone ever gonna beat such lyrics...?
Thanks for posting this 😃
I still live in the best decade, 90's rule
Take us all back with you :)
2024 y sigue siendo una de mis rolas favoritos
This is the type of song you’d hear during the credits roll of a comic book film like Batman or hellboy, or teen titans if they ever do that “right”
Someone should splice this song over clips of 'The Batman'. Would fit a lot better.
Literally *THE #1* good thing about Batman & Robin
Listening to this before I go watch The Batman tonight
Almost 30years later and this band still blew my mind
this is one of the most underrated songs. his lyrics, the delivery, billy’s voice, cadence, electric guitar. damn, dude. bravo, billster. 🥹🫡🥰
ese track es el mejor que ha tenido batman en cualquiera de sus presentaciones
Y el de U2
if you ever knew anything about this band, you can tell they had a fucking blast making this video.
When this was getting regular MTV airplay and I was a teenager I took it for granted that great music like this was being released...
My favorite band of all times!!!!
I already loved this as a child...still a great song
I know how people feel about the movie ( I am actually at peace with it). But this song slaps so hard. Fantastic Batman song (those lyrics are so meta), peak grunge song, peak Smashing pumpkins. So underrated!
Yep. I feel the same chills as with You Know You're Right from Nirvana. With both songs I wonder what it would be like if they kept going. Perfection... I mean it would be for sure perfection :))
I would ask who's listening to this right now in 2021 but that would be a waste of time. Timeless classic! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I remember leaving the Cinema dumbfounded,disturbed,confused after watching this film.
It was campy as fuck, but I’d have to say they definitely had some studio interference considering the marketing needed to sell the toys and shit. When a movie becomes a selling point for that kinda crap, you forget what makes a movie decent. It could have been a great movie without the dumbass one-liners, too.
I didn't know bill burr had a band. seriously though, great tune even nearly 20 years later.
Ophelia Darkling he goes by William Patrick Burr now.
The End Is The Beginning Is The End was the last great single The Smashing Pumpkins ever recorded.
The song won a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance and received 4 technical nominations at the MTV Video Music Awards.
But it also received a Razzie nom for Worst Song, losing against the entire score for The Postman
Imagine that: Grammy and a razzie. Well, fuck the razzie. This song’s bad ass. As well as its counterpart The Beginning is the End is the beginning.
@@midnightfury4584 The Razzie nominated the song because it was associated with the Batman film that has an infamous reputation for being a 2 and a half hour long toy commercial.
Tbh, I enjoyed this film more than Batman Forever. It’s a guilty pleasure for me.
The film is unquestionably bad, but Arnold Schwarzenegger and Uma Thurman made the film for me.
Brilliant song, extremely cool musical instruments.
For some reason, I find D'arcy so hot in this MV.
She looked better in bullet with butterfly wings vid
Those are the coolest guitars I've ever seen in a music video for a superhero action movie.
This is the best song of SP and movies of Batman. The lyric: Is it bright where you are, have the people changed, does it makes you feel so happy? and you are so strange. (...) You can watch the world devour in its pain. This so philosophic and real when someone has lost its world. That´ s Batman. Only Billy Corgan could understand that and write it!
amazing song, and an extraordinary music video -- not just part of it because of the bassist girl (D'arcy Wretzky) ... but likewise comes a great deal of (visual) beauty from the strange chemistry of the "analogous" faces of Corgan and Wretzky... to which the femininity of guitarist James Iha adds even more...
floating in itself is a huge device too in this video... and luckily we don't have to see very much of the movie (which is just crap in my op)
nevertheless, if I only heard this song, without MTV or YT, without video, without screens, in complete darkness, it would still be a mind-blowing experience...
true artists
This song is boss!
The chorus to this song is clearly among the best things they ever did. The melody is silk on my soul.
This is interesting to me because it’s almost like Smashing Pumpkins by numbers. They always tried to be different, new, original, memorable. Here it sounds like they weren’t under those pressures and it just rocks. Love it.
