That Which Animates The Spirit

"That Which Animates The Spirit" is the second track from Act III of the The Smashing Pumpkins' 2023 rock opera, ATUM.

Synopsis
The head of the X+I takes the microphone after Shiny and officially welcomes him back. The people in attendance begin celebrating; all rallying behind the idea that "Zero is back". Not Shiny, nor Glass, but Zero. Shiny is confused by the reaction as he has spent two decades in exile, with the Glass and Zero character far in the past, and was sent back to Earth by force then greeted by a crowd he assumed had long forgotten him.
