Billy Corgan Sings For TNT Wrestling; Music Bloggers Rejoice

billycorgan

Admittedly, The Tripwire, as of late, is wont to sensationalist stories, especially with anything to do with Billy Corgan. But this, takes the fucking cake.

With absolutely no shred or morsel of irony, Billy Corgan sings “Bullet With Butterfly Wings” acappella for TNT Wrestling. The lyrics of the first verse remain the same, with one notably absurd amendment: “Despite all your rage, you’re still just a rat in the six sides of steel cage.” Good Help Us All. Oh, and Corgan has Twitter now and will likely be writing all sorts of crazy solipsistic shit there. [Via Stereogum]

    Try and get some facts right. TNT was a channel, isn’t anymroe and when it was, it aired WCW wrestling. This is for TNA Wrestling on Spike TV. Whether anyone cares about wrestling, or The Smashing Pumpkins is irrelevant. Being on the internet where finding information is as simple as pressing a few buttons, it makes you look pretty unprofessional that you’re unable to check out your “facts” before posting it for the rest of the world to see.

    Colin, Hear, hear!
