<P0-S0> William Patrick "Billy" Corgan Jr. (born March 17, 1967) is an American musician, songwriter, producer, poet, and entrepreneur. <P0-S1>  Formed by Corgan and guitarist James Iha in Chicago, Illinois, in 1988, the band quickly gained steam with the addition of bassist D'arcy Wretzky and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. <P0-S2>  He is best known as the lead singer, primary songwriter, guitarist, and sole permanent member of The Smashing Pumpkins. <P0-S3>  Strong album sales and large-scale tours propelled the band's increasing fame in the 1990s until their break-up in 2000. <P0-S4>  Corgan started a new band called Zwan, and after their quick demise, he released a solo album ("TheFutureEmbrace") and a collection of poetry ("Blinking with Fists") before setting his sights on reforming Smashing Pumpkins. <SEP> <P1-S0> Greek Fire is an American rock band from St. Louis, Missouri. <P1-S1>  The band was formed in 2008 by members of Story of the Year and Maybe Today. <P1-S2>  Since formation, Greek Fire has released a self-titled EP, a single titled "Doesn't Matter Anyway", on August 16, 2011, they released their debut, full-length album, "Deus Ex Machina", and have recently announced a new addition to the "Lost/Found" EPs titled "Broken" set to be released before "Found". <SEP> <P2-S0> The Aeroplane Flies High is a five-disc box set released by American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins in 1996. <P2-S1>  It contains expanded versions of the five singles from their album "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" and also included a 44-page booklet with pictures and writings by the band's lead singer Billy Corgan, as well as lyrics. <P2-S2>  A limited edition release, the box reached number 42 on the "Billboard" charts, and sold 300,000 units (1.5 million discs in all), generating a platinum disc for the band. <P2-S3>  Originally intended to be limited to 200,000 copies, Virgin Records produced more after the original run sold out due to overwhelming and unexpected demand. <P2-S4>  The album was remastered in 2013 under the supervision of frontman Billy Corgan and reissued on vinyl and as a CD/DVD box set. <SEP> <P3-S0> "1979" is a song by American alternative rock band the Smashing Pumpkins. <P3-S1>  Released in 1996 as the second single from their third studio album, "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness", "1979" was written by frontman Billy Corgan, and features loops and samples that were uncharacteristic of previous Smashing Pumpkins songs. <P3-S2>  The song was written as a coming of age story by Corgan. <P3-S3>  In the year 1979, Corgan was 12 and this is what he considered his transition into adolescence. <P3-S4>  The song was popular with critics and fans; Allmusic's Amy Hanson called it a "somewhat surprising hit". <P3-S5>  The song was nominated for the Record of the Year and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 39th Annual Grammy Awards, and won an MTV Video Music Award for Best Alternative Video. <P3-S6>  In 2012, it was voted the second-best Smashing Pumpkins song by Rolling Stone magazine readers.
