Young Love Revisit '1979'

Young Love cover "1979," the sixth song from the Spin/MySpace Smashing Pumpkins tribute CD, available with the July issue of Spin.

When you pick up a copy of Spin's July issue on newsstands, a special surprise awaits: A free CD with ten covers of Smashing Pumpkins classics, presented by MySpace and Spin. While the street date of the July issue is almost a month away, you can start listening to these stellar tracks via each band's MySpace Page. Stay tuned to SPIN.com as we unveil each track from the collection throughout the next month.

Up next on the roster is glammy disco revivalist Dan Keyes, the brainchild of Young Love. "The song is so great, but the video has had a huge impact about how I think about music videos," says Keyes. "Plus, the lyrics are so nostalgic. When you hear those words, you feel that angst of being that age. Billy Corgan is such a cool lyricist."
