“Tonight, Tonight” brings me back to the summer of 1995. Up until then, The Smashing Pumpkins were rocking hard and raw, but were pretty much characterized by Billy Corgan doing everything. But then Mellon Collie came out and the rest of the band started to take on larger roles. “Tonight, Tonight” was the ultimate example of this band suddenly opening up, democratizing their sound, and being better for it. It doesn’t sound like one guy laying down 8 different tracks. It’s an epic Smashing Pumpkins anthem with even the Chicago Symphony Orchestra taking a turn in the recording booth. While Siamese Dream leaned grunge, this song leaned head first into grand.

“We'll crucify the insincere tonight. We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight. We'll find a way to offer up the night tonight. The indescribable moments of your life tonight. The impossible is possible tonight. Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight.”
