when did the song all night long come out
All Night Long (All Night) "All Night Long (All Night)" is a hit single by American singer-songwriter Lionel Richie from 1983. Taken from his second solo album, Can't Slow Down, it combined Richie's soulful Commodores style with Caribbean influences. This new, more dance music, pop-inspired approach proved popular, as the single reached number one on three Billboard charts (pop, R&B and adult contemporary).[2] Richard Marx contributed backing vocals as an unknown until his 1987 debut album appeared.
Because the Night "Because the Night" is a song written by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith that was first released in 1978 as a single off the Patti Smith Group album Easter. It rose to number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as number five in the United Kingdom, and helped propel sales of Easter to mainstream successâ€”even as Smith was deciding to retire from a life of constant touring. In 1987, the song was ranked number 116 on NME magazine's list of "The Top 150 Singles of All Time".[1] It remains one of the best-known songs of Smith's catalog.
