Which is the difference between the sound of stratocaster and telecaster guitar?

I want to buy a fender guitar and I don't know what's the difference between these two.

There's a pretty big difference in sound, I'd recommend the Strat, as personally I feel the sound of the telecaster doesn't always fit some songs. That may just be my personal taste tho.

Go into a shop and have a play with both.
