Wake Up for me.

Geek is great, but Wake Up hold my attention in the first bass line.

Wake Up is a top ten song in this tournament. Easy winner here.

"Geek USA" was one of those magical Beatles moments in the Smashing Pumpkins history. Billy Corgan was noodling around on his guitar when suddenly he heard himself playing this riff. He was instantly mesmerized. Even after having played guitar for several years, it proved to him his own potential. It was a really defining moment in their career. Billy later championed that they record it and put it on the record, and he played every instrument on it.

I'd be a big fat liar if I said that didn't make me chuckle.
