{{cquote|I am a huge fan of [Corgan], honestly. This guy was so generous with his time and his talent. And not only was he generous with this song, but my son and I had written a song that we threw in his direction. He was actually on a retreat, a songwriting retreat after we had recorded — I just want to just tell you how great this guy is — and he took the time to write his ideas and record them on videotape and send them to us. I mean, he didn’t need to do that. Not only is he brilliant, and no one can argue that he is. He is a true blue, great human being that deserves all of the praise that he has gotten in his career. And I found nothing but just honest, compassionate generosity coming from Billy Corgan. I can’t speak highly enough of him.|author=Cherie Currie|source=2020 consequence.net interview<ref>https://consequence.net/2020/05/cherie-currie-interview-2020/</ref>}}
