"Tonight" is a song by South African post-grunge/alternative metal band Seether. It was released on 7 June 2011 as the second single from their fifth studio album Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray. This is also one of the last songs the band recorded with lead guitarist Troy McLawhorn who left the band prior to the album's release. Two remixes of this song appeared on the band's Remix EP.
Background
During an interview, drummer John Humphrey stated that "Tonight" is one of the last songs the band wrote. "Shaun had put together a demo for the song, and he was playing it for Dale [Stuart, bass player] and I. We were sitting in line at Starbucks, and Shaun started playing the demo off his iPod, and we were like, 'this song is awesome, man.' It's a super strong song. It was very melodic and just the best of pop-rock for Seether. I think it's a really strong song and a great single."
When asked about which songs were the favorites Shaun Morgan talked about how the song almost didn't make it onto the album since he didn't show it to the band yet and later explained "But one morning I woke up before dawn, in a really good mood, and completely changed the lyrics to positive lyrics. It just started coming together. Later that day in the studio, I asked Brendan to check it out. We only had two days left in the studio, but Brendan said, 'We've got to record that song right now.' I think it captures and summarizes the hopeful sentiment of the album." Dale Stewart then says that "'Tonight' is almost nostalgic, yet optimistic sounding. It's a really strong song and I'm excited for it to possibly go to radio. I think it could be a big song for us."
Tonight was a BBC television current affairs programme presented by Cliff Michelmore and broadcast in Britain live on weekday evenings from February 1957 to 1965. The producers were the future Controller of BBC1Donald Baverstock and the future Director-General of the BBCAlasdair Milne. The audience was typically seven million.
BBC TV background
Tonight was, like Six-Five Special, created by the BBC to fill in the 'Toddlers' Truce' closed period between 6.00pm and 7.00pm (the 'Truce' was officially abolished only a few days before Tonight was first broadcast). Tonight began broadcasting from the Viking studio in Kensington, known by the BBC as 'studio M'. It eventually transferred to one of the main studios in Lime Grove, Shepherd's Bush, west London.
"Tonight" is a 1990 song recorded by the Americanpop band New Kids on the Block. Every member of the band sung lead vocals on this song. It was their second single from their 1990 album Step by Step. It was a big hit on both sides of the Atlantic. It first reached #7 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and then went on to reach #3 on the UK Singles Chart soon after its American success, giving the band another hit, as, at this point, they were at their commercial peak.
The song is "half slow tempo, half ska". It is "autobiographical" and "discusses the relationship that binds the members of the group to their fans, since the beginning", with many references to their first hits in the first couplet.
Tonight is the fourth extended play of South Korean boy band Big Bang. It was their first new material released in South Korea after two-year hiatus as a group. Upon its release, the album and its lead single of the same name became a chart-topper in various South Korean and international music charts. It was released on February 23, 2011 under YG Entertainment.
Background
While writing the songs for the then-untitled album, leader G-Dragon and lead rapper T.O.P began to break away to collaborate on their GD & T.O.P project. According to G-Dragon, the group was trying a "new combination" with their music, in which the vocalists Taeyang, Daesung, and Seungri were to record their own music as a trio while the remaining two were to branch off as a duo since they had not been with their fans for the past two years. Although the division of the group was initially for Big Bang's materials only, G-Dragon and T.O.P saw positive response to their materials from the fans and went to Yang Hyunsuk, CEO of YG Entertainment, to allow the duo to release an album. After the promotions for GD & T.OP. collaboration ended, the group reunited to record the tracks to be included for Tonight. Songs from the album have been reportedly recorded variously over the two years span that the group was on hiatus. G-Dragon describes the music from the extended play as "very cheerful" in hopes of cheering up their listeners. Though the group's previous extended plays contained songs that were heavily influenced by electronic music, the group decided to concentrate more on "warm rock music."
A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections. Written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs in a simple style that are learned informally are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers for concert performances. Songs are performed live and recorded. Songs may also appear in plays, musical theatre, stage shows of any form, and within operas.
Song is a Korean family name derived from the Chinese surnameSong. Songs make up roughly 1.4% of the Korean population; the 2000 South Korean census found 622,208 in that country. The Chinese character for Song means "Song Dynasty".
Kinds
Song (宋) family: Various Korean family name.
Song (訟) family: unknown origin, later surname change to Sung (成).
Song (松) family: the Song Yang (松讓) ethnicity in the Buyeo kingdom.

Lyrics:
I'm not gonna waste this
This opportunity's mine
I'm sick of complaining
About a beautiful life
How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things denied?
I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older
For my entertainment
You tell a whimsical lie
To keep me complacent
You knock me down with a smile
How did we get here?
How do we pretend everything's alright?
And how do we stay here?
Do we erase all the fear inside?
I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older
Like sugar and cyanide
