"'''Ugly'''" is a song from the [[The Smashing Pumpkins]]' [[:Category:Compilation albums|box set]], ''[[The Aeroplane Flies High]]'' and on the original "[[1979]]" single released in January 1996. During the sessions that made up [[Billy's Gravity Demos I]], it was called "'''Beautiful One'''". The demo version differs significantly, having a much heavier sound and no vocals.

During the sessions that made up [[Billy's Gravity Demos I]], it was called "'''Beautiful One'''". The demo version differs significantly, having a much heavier sound and no vocals. The more subtle version featured on the "1979" single was chosen for release due to Corgan feeling that the "soft-loud-soft stylings of grunge" had been largely overdone by that point, although he has since stated that he regrets not releasing something more reminiscent of the original version instead.<ref>Corgan, Billy.

[[Flood]] and I tried about four different versions before settling on this one [see Queen's Hot Space album]. One version that I liked was just me and a distorted guitar. But in the end this version won, only to be mixed into eternal obscurity as a B-side.|author=Billy Corgan|source=[[w:Guitar World|Guitar World]], January 1997}}
