Smashing Pumpkins - Meladori Magpie
From "Tonight, Tonight" single released 1996.
Features Jimmy and Dennis Flemion of the Frogs.

"Another believe it or not, this left-over from 
Siamese Dream was written in the last-minute crush. 
Butch Vig never thought much of it, but it is one of 
my secret favorites. A simple song of innocence that 
has double-tracked, finger-picked acoustic and drum 
machine, and was recorded at home." -BC (Guitar World 1/97)
