Though technically it is considered to have been recorded during the tail end of the ''Mellon Collie'' era, [[Billy Corgan]] has said the spirit of "Eye" was that of the ''Adore'' era. The song is about surviving an addictive relationship, and to Corgan conveys more of a "triumph sound" than the dark, angst-driven vibes as some have described it.<ref name=":0" />
