{{Cquote|out of these 28 [''[[Chicago Kid]]'' songs] there was one song that struck a deep nerve with me personally called "el-a-noy," a folk song from the 1860's about settlers coming into Chicago.... because of the personal nature of the lyrics and the lonesome and hopeful quality of this city, it seemed to resonate more deeply within me.... somewhere along the way, because of that one connection, I hatched the idea to assemble a whole group of songs that would be linked by the spirit of Chicago, because I think that this town is truly indescribable.... it is an odd mix of violence, pioneer recklessness, unbridled capitalism, undying hope, and if you have ever been here during the winter, death and endless rebirth.... at the bottom of all of it though, is that I really love this place!!|author=Billy Corgan|source=Integral Naked blog, April 8, 2004<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20051122164430/http://integralnaked.org/avantgarde/billy_blog.aspx</ref>}}
