"Night Waves" is the fifth track from Act II of The Smashing Pumpkins' 2023 rock opera, ATUM.
The song originally had sounded similar to The Cars, with Billy Corgan comparing his writing to something Rick Nielsen would write. Engineer Howard Willing and Corgan ultimately decided that version wasn't going to work, and aimed for a more Brian Eno-esque production, with elements of marching bands. Corgan said the final recording is a "shadow of what it was" originally.[1]
