"'''Burnt Orange Black'''" is a song by [[The Smashing Pumpkins]] that was recorded during the [[March-April 2014 – Pumpkinland II]] sessions and likely intended for ''[[Day For Night]]'', which was the abandoned sister-album to ''[[Monuments to an Elegy]]''. Ultimately it was "cougared" (marked for non-inclusion) and was never officially released, though it was performed live a number of times in late 2014.

{{Cquote|This is one of those songs that has that timeless ring to it. Slow, languid, but powerful, with a set of changes you could jam all night on. But... Howard said, 'It's no single,' and we agreed. Not that every song has to be a single, mind you, but 'single' here is code word for' it could be better,' or 'this idea has more potential that it's showing.' With that I tried adding a stuttering guitar figure, and presto! Change-o! We at least had something that sounded radio-worthy, which is funny considering the staccato stuff was the only change. Shows you how thin the premise is a good song vs a great one.|author=[[Billy Corgan]]|source=SP Nexus, April 2, 2014}}
