QUESTION:                                                                                                                                                                    All but two songs on Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness were written by Billy Corgan. Which songs are they, and who were they written by?

Scroll down for answer

ANSWER:                                                                                                                                                                  The closing track from the Dawn side of disc one, "Take Me Down," was written and sung by guitarist James Iha. The track "Farewell and Goodnight" on the Starlight side of disc three features lead vocals by all four members of the band and, according to the BMI database, was written solely by James Iha. Although, the album liner notes credit the song as being written by both James Iha and Billy Corgan.
