Mina Loy (M.O.H.)

Album: The Future Embrace (2005)
Play Video

Songfacts®:

  • This is partly about the terror attacks on New York, and Corgan's feelings about if this would happen to his hometown of Chicago.
  • "M.O.H." is the song's working title (My Old Heart), although the title changed as the song progressed.
  • Corgan performed this song live on The David Letterman Show in 2005. Corgan looks kind of sad and distanced from everything during the performance. He had just gotten some very bad news just before they were supposed to go on, and decided to play this instead of "A100," which they were going to play. >>>
