While listening to Pandora I heard a song that was a cover of The Smashing Pumpkins’s “Today” which I thought was really good. I haven’t heard any covers of SP’s music before, so I checked and saw that it was off of a tribute album called The Killer in You.
After purchasing the album, I went straight to one of my favorite songs on the Siamese Dream album, Mayonaise. The cover is by Emanuel, and I thoroughly enjoy how they did it, although I’ll always treasure the original version, which has special meaning to me growing up as a teen listening to their music.
Here’s the Smashing Pumpkins cover of Mayonaise:

Thanks Tim for pointing that out. I’ve put it up on the Tunes page. That’s a very neat mashup, I’m really digging it.
