The S.P Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh yeah, here I go again
Trading my sould to the night - but it's
Alright, I got no pain tonight
My demon alcohol's alive
Oh no I can't stand
Trading nine lives for tonight
But it don't matter much
Cause I don't give a fuck

Hell on wheels I wanna ride

But tonight
No I can't die tonight
Maybe I'll live forever
I just can't die tonight

Tonight
No I can't die tonight
So high I'll live forever
No I can't die tonight

Whiskey bar superman
I don't give a damn
Oh it's alright
I'm too numb to stand
And I don't give a damn
Oh too high to die

Can't die tonight
No, no not tonight

Can't die tonight
Oh no tonight

Overall Meaning

The song "Tonight, Tonight" by The Smashing Pumpkins is a song about surrendering to the power of the night and letting go of one's inhibitions. The singer of the song speaks of trading their soul and sacrificing their life for a night of hedonism and pleasure. The lyrics depict the singer's reliance on alcohol as their source of escape, allowing them to live a life absent of pain for one night. The singer acknowledges the recklessness of their actions, but they don't give a "fuck." They are living life on their own terms, without any regard for the consequences.

The chorus of the song, "No I can't die tonight. Maybe I'll live forever. I just can't die tonight," speaks of the intoxicating power of the night, as well as the singer's desire to prolong the experience. They want to live forever, only just for tonight. The lines "Whiskey bar Superman, I don't give a damn. Oh, it's alright. I'm too numb to stand," evoke an image of the singer as a superhuman, impervious to the dangers of the night. Yet, they are aware of their state, as they are too numb to stand.

In conclusion, "Tonight, Tonight" is a song that speaks to the primal nature of human beings. It captures the euphoria and recklessness of a night of living without any limits. The lyrics illustrate the singer's willingness to surrender to their desires and live life on their own terms, for just one night.

Line by Line Meaning

Oh yeah, here I go again
Starting down the path of self-destruction once more

Trading my sould to the night - but it's
Giving in to the temptations and pleasures of darkness

Alright, I got no pain tonight
Feeling no guilt or regret about indulging in reckless behavior

My demon alcohol's alive
Acknowledging that alcohol is the driving force behind this destructive behavior

Oh no I can't stand
Aware of the risks and consequences of this lifestyle

Trading nine lives for tonight
Risking everything for one night of pleasure and escape

But it don't matter much
Believing that it's worth it, despite the possible consequences

Cause I don't give a fuck
Taking a carefree and reckless attitude towards life

Hell on wheels I wanna ride
Willing to go all out and risk everything for the thrill of the ride

But tonight
Despite all of the risks and potential consequences

No I can't die tonight
Willing to do whatever it takes to survive the night

Maybe I'll live forever
Expressing a desire to feel invincible and untouchable

I just can't die tonight
Determined to survive, no matter what happens

Whiskey bar superman
Feeling empowered by alcohol, despite the potential dangers

I don't give a damn
Adopting a careless and indifferent attitude towards life

Oh it's alright
Convincing oneself that everything will be okay, despite the risks

I'm too numb to stand
Feeling so intoxicated and drugged that physical sensation is lost

And I don't give a damn
Reiterating the careless and indifferent attitude towards life

Oh too high to die
Feeling invincible and untouchable, no matter the risk

Can't die tonight
Determined to survive and live, despite the potential risks and consequences

No, no not tonight
Reiterating the determination to survive and live, even in the face of danger

Oh no tonight
Acknowledging the potential risks and dangers of this reckless lifestyle

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave
Without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change, the less you feel
Believe
Believe in me
Believe, believe
That life can change
That you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
Tonight
And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade
In your city by the lake
The place where you were born
Believe
Believe in me
Believe, believe
In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a chance
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
Tonight
We'll crucify the insincere tonight
(Tonight)
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
(Tonight)
We'll find a way to offer up the night
(Tonight)
The indescribable moments of your life
(Tonight)
The impossible is possible tonight
(Tonight)
Believe in me as I believe in you
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
Tonight

I am a 65-year-old African American male, when this song came out in 1996 I was 43 years old. I like all kinds of music and this song was incredible! The video was mesmerizing. Billy's voice pierced through all the noise - I bought this double album and it (along with Tupac's "All Eyez On Me") dominated my psyche for the next year at least. What a rush to spontaneously pull this up while working on a project. A time machine, music is.

Tell me about it, I remember the week this album came out. I believe I was in 7th grade at the time! This album no joke won like EVERY single award that year at the MTV awards and every other annual music awards show. It was that legendary of an album and nobody had ever heard anything like it. I feel SO lucky to have been able to see the original lineup of the Smashing Pumpkins live probably 6 times! In Baltimore, we had a local radio station who did something called the "HFStival" every year. If you ever wanted to see one massive line up of nearly all headlining bands, THAT was the festival to attend! And get this, tix for all those bands back then was only $30! You'll pay 5X that amount just to see ONE of those groups today! I'm talking bands like...Rage Against the Machine, Eminem, Korn, Limp Bizkit, No Doubt, Aerosmith, Foo Fighters, Weezer, Dave Matthews, STP, Alice In Chains, Hole, Slipknot, Pearl Jam, Etc. They also always did had a secret performer every year in the beginning, so I was blessed to have seen bands like The Ramones, Run DMC, The Runaways & more. I can't even list all of the bands I've seen just from that one festival!

I was dating a girl when this song came out. I could picture myself growing old with her and going on adventures like this. She became my wife. Last fall, we went to Napa Valley to celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary. One activity we had planned was a Hot Air Balloon ride. It made me think of this video. Driving from the airport to our hotel, we heard this song on the radio.
It literally gave me chills! How often do you hear this on the radio anywhere anymore?

We live in different counties in Ireland but still game online together regularly. He was into all the best music in the 90's when we were growing up, so every time I listen to music like this it triggers a great memory of our childhood, there's a mix of joy and sadness when I realise we're older now and can't go back to these days.

It feels like a timeless classic even though The Smashing Pumpkins are not a band that most would associate with a pop classic.
It's just so well written and structured.

@Theo1 The 70s and the first half part of the 90s ,to a limited degree the 80s, were periods of music history when the artistic LP/CD design and sometimes the music video was a quite important part of the listener's experience. The flatter more digitalized one-song-here-and-there(and all sound the same) concept today at iTunes and Spotify is a far duller story. Yet, ironically here we are finding old music kept alive and found just that way. 😜 A weird paradox. But YouTube better ,being at least visual.

Just got back from seeing them live tonight. They played this song and i absolutely lost it the moment i saw Billy bring out that acoustic and start playing,

This song means alot to me because it brought me comfort and peace during some very hard times in my life, I was a depressed 18 year old wanting to give up and this band kinda saved me because i didn't feel alone in my struggles. I am autistic and i always felt lonely as a kid and i was bullied alot and didn't have many people to connect with which led me to be in some people's lives who were not good for me. When i finally detached from it all and decided to take a risk and just live my life and be me I felt very lonely and isolated, even sometimes doubting if i did the right thing. This song was like a hug to me saying "It's okay you're not alone and you will be okay"

I cried when i heard it played live tonight, it was almost freeing in a way. i felt so much emotion i've been holding in for so long, just let go and i felt like i could finally enjoy the moment for once and just BREATHE.

I love this band and i am so grateful for this beautiful song.

The last video in its kind, most of the nowadays videos are musicalized dance, but there are no videos with theatrical ambientance and scenographic work, today is all about sex, there is not a cinematographic work in movies, television and music videos anymore, Real Cinematography has died.

The last weekend we got to see him on that schedule, I helped him cook and we listen to this album. We've seen him five times since that happened; He had to move south for work. I'm seeing him tomorrow for the first time in a couple weeks. This album has been keeping me going for a few months now. :/

This song makes me sad, but in a very strange way of not an empty sadness, but more of a sadness that invokes a good memory of mine that I wish I got to relive again. But I know I can't be sad about it. I can only move on and be happy that I am still here alive in this world and that there are people who care about me the same way I care about them. I know I'm just mumbling some nonsense for some people, just wanted to throw that out for someone on the internet to read.

***** thats not what it means, he's talking about changing who you are, many people try and change who they are for many reasons, maybe they don't like the person they are, maybe they want to be someone else, maybe they the want to be the person someone else wants them to be, the more times you change the more you lose touch with who you really are, being who you really are (whatever that might be) is when you are the best version of yourself despite what you might think, when you try and be something else you start to lose your spark what makes you you, and then you start to feel less and less, you become numb, and just live life going through the motions not knowing how you even got to that point. maybe this hasn't happened to you and therefore you cannot relate or understand but this is not something you can disagree with because its real.

Sure. The Pumpkins are partially known for their melancholic sound.
They've always been really good at creating a dark, emotional mood with a bittersweet sense in their tunes.
That's not to say that they don't have other types of vibes in their catalog. Quite the contrary, they've always had a very 'vast' sound.
