There's so many videos of this dude just playing his music out in the streets! WTF, he's amazing.

[Peteiredale]

1:08 when that guy starts singing out of key billy just looks at him like "😐😐🤨"

[antoniofelipemelo]

The lady who stands besides him is so emotioned. God bless

[GuitarHeroPhenomSux]

This guy is great. He should start a band.

[doctortimetv]

Great song writer and musician. Billy you rule buddy keep rockin!!!

[siddhant]

He's so genuine and down to earth. Don't know why so many people hate him, he's such a great person.

I'm like the lady sitting next to him. I would just like to take the moment in. Listen. Enjoy the original music straight from the artist. While everyone else has their phone out stuck in his face and singing along badly. I know he's used to it. But that lady has the right idea. Just look at the smile on her face.

I wished I see billy in a street and can sing this song beside him. it would really break me to tears.

[doctortimetv]

The pumpkins like nirvana started small and transcended it which is why they were/are both great in small venues also.

[catm]

Ironically, the next word in the lyrics was .. Morphine.
Enjoy life Bill, you're an awesome artist and I hope you'll do more of the same 90s vibe again.

I was there in Laredo when he was there at the plazita just a few blocks away and i missed it!! 🤒 Found out next day on the Laredo Morning Times.

[kustomhooligans]

[TheRollingCoinStore]

I always thought The Smashing Pumpkins sucked but have really been digging Billy with his acoustic. He can play all his hits alone and they sound amazing.

[devonscannell]

Thank you Billy...You and the pumpkins are missed more than you realize

[rodrigostefano]

Un grande!... Que ganas de haber estado en ese lugar..

[nickra]

The girl next to Billy is so sweet... So excited... :) how cute

[cerealu]

I wish he would have played that little breakdown at the end . It’s my favorite part of the song but still very good

[christsaves]
