"Walking Shade" DVD by Billy Corgan released June 6, 2005! It is a promotional single from his debut solo album, TheFutureEmbrace. A single track compact disc was first released in the Europe sometime in May 2005. The DVD released the following June included the music video directed by P.R. Brown along with interview footage. It was the album's only single, blending elements of electronica, house, alternative rock, and dream-pop.
Corgan told SheKnows Media: "I like where this song comes on the album. Someone I work with told me, "It's that point where you want to put your foot on the accelerator and drive a little faster." Without it, the album tailed off into a blissful thing, and I didn't want that. I wrote this song at the last possible second -- I wasn't sure what I was writing about. Then a week later, this whole thing blew up with this girl, and I had pretty much written what was going to happen but a week before. It's the psychic breakup song. We've made a video for it with all my pasts coming back to haunt me."
The song was performed live at nearly every show during the TheFutureEmbrace tour, ending with a show in Tokyo, Japan on August 5, 2005.
