That's the Way (My Love Is) (2007)
Smashing Pumpkins
Rating: 3.6
I'm not really a fan of the Smashing Pumpkins' new sound, so I'm not a fan of this song. However, Billy Corgan has a talent for writing beautiful lyrics, and "That's the Way (My Love Is)" is no exception. The chorus is a perfect example of this: "That's the way my love is/That's the way I care/You should call on me, baby/I'm always there for you/Yeah, I'm always there for you."
The emotion is clear in Corgan's voice, and even though both I and the editors of this book agree that this shouldn't be a part of the main 1001, there's still something magical and gorgeous about the sentiments carefully folded within the lyrics. Even if you choose to simply read the lyrics, you can see the powerful ability that Corgan has, and will hopefully always have throughout the rest of his music career.
