A little something we're gonna be doing weekly from now on, Musical Mondays features the hit songs we may have or may have not missed back in the day. If there're any songs you guys might know of back then, we're open to take requests!

Kicking it off would be this tune from Smashing Pumpkins. "Tonight Tonight" was released back in 1996 and is known as one of the band's greatest hits. While the song itself was well received and pretty damn sweet, the video that accompanied the song was what caught everyone's attention. It won 6 awards in the MTV Video Music Awards in 1996:

Video of the Year
Best Direction
Best Special Effects
Best Art Direction
Best Cinematography
Breakthrough Video

To this day, it's still considered to be one of the greatest music videos of all time

A little trivia, the video was heavily based on a silent film "A Trip to the Moon" by Georges Méliès waaay back in 1902. Here's the vid if you wanna take a peek at it:
