Raging Strings: The Verve vs. Smashing Pumpkins
[Welcome to a new series on the VSQ Blog called "Raging Strings." Each week, we'll highlight two pop and/or rock songs which include strings, and we'll ask you to vote for your favorite.]
The Verve had their '90s hit with "Bittersweet Symphony" and one of many Smashing Pumpkins' hits during that era included "Tonight, Tonight." Strings are crucial to each song, but which song uses strings better? Let us know below and leave a comment telling us why you prefer one over the other.
