"Tonite Reprise" is an acoustic variant of "Tonight, Tonight", originally included on the vinyl release of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, and later with the "Tonight, Tonight" single packaged with The Aeroplane Flies High. A different, slightly faster version was released in the 2012 deluxe reissue of Mellon Collie.

Originally slated to go on towards the end of the Mellon Collie album, this one was hacked off in the name of 'When is enough too much?' I had just come back from the Chicago Bulls' tragic loss to the Orlando Magic in the playoffs, and was very depressed. My voice was hoarse from so much shouting. Flood threw up his famous mikes, and I just did it live. I used my trusty Gibson acoustic, with the rusty strings.

and the embers never fade in my city by the lake
the place where I was born
as the wind-up toys wind down
muffling the sound of a life hidden underground
believe, believe in me
believe
that you can change, that you're not stuck in vain
we're not the same, we're different tonite
we'll the crucify the insincere tonite
we'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonite
the impossible is possible tonite
believe in me like I believe in you tonite
