      except the smashing pumpkins reflected on their youth in an overwhelmingly positive way. not so much here. there is more depth.

    I saw them at a concert in Toronto this summer, and this was playing in the background for the song.

    I cannot stop watching this video. If someone thinks there isn’t much depth, you need to see a doctor!
