{{Social media/Instagram| | {{Social media/Instagram|The "Perfect" music video debuted September 16, 1998! It first aired on MTV's 120 Minutes. | ||
To expand on the musical similarities between "Perfect" and "1979", the band made the video continue the story of the characters in the "1979" video. They were able to find and use four out of the five original actors from the "1979" video, including Giuseppe Andrews. The fifth was in jail. The same crew of directors was hired, which consisted of husband-and-wife team Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris. It was the fifth and final collaboration between the two and The Smashing Pumpkins. | To expand on the musical similarities between "Perfect" and "1979", the band made the video continue the story of the characters in the "1979" video.

{{Social media/Twitter| | {{Social media/Twitter|The "Perfect" music video debuted 25 years ago today! It was a continuation of the story behind the "1979" video, and had 4 of the same actors, including Giuseppe Andrews. The 5th was in jail. Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris again hired as directors. https://youtu.be/VKYY8DxVZHE | ||
The conclusion of the video, in which a tape falls off a car and is crushed, is probably a reference to the fate of the first tapes of the "1979" music video, which had to be re-taped because they were left on the roof of a car and destroyed when the car drove off. | |||
The video contains footage of SP performing at The Masque in L.A. for selected fans, featuring touring drummer @AronoffOFFICIAL. The set played included heavier songs not performed during regular concerts at the time, such as "Where Boys Fear to Tread", "Bodies", and "Pug". | |||
Corgan considered the video "disappointing". He wrote that he regretted lip syncing the vocals from a 150 foot crane, given his fear of heights. "As I tried to sing I found I couldn't stop shaking. Affecting what became a tremulous, unfortunate delirium that would last a week." | |||
