I of the Mourning

"I of the Mourning" is a promotional single for The Smashing Pumpkins' fifth studio album, Machina/The Machines of God. It was written by Billy Corgan and released in early 2000. Reportedly it was merged with another song called "Radio" during the Machina sessions.

On March 9, 2000, the band went on the Thursday edition of @MTV Week at Broadway Studios in New York City for a half-hour live TV special. During the broadcast they performed "The Everlasting Gaze" as well as "I of the Mourning" after an online and call-in voting competition between three songs from Machina.
