Tonight's The Night

Story Behind The Song

Written to be perfect for a final sports showdown, such as Super Bowl, Game 7 or UFC Championship. Inspired by Steve Morse of the Dixie Dregs, think of their song "Cruise Control" with cascading harmonies and timing changes.

Song Description

High-energy, sports showdown-themed Rock. This driving, "Neo-Classic" sound has 80s and 90s influences with huge, Yes-like harmonies over a bed of guitar-driven arena Rock. Similar in style to Black Country Communion, Glenn Hughes, Sammy Hagar, Thin Lizzy and The Dixie Dregs. There's no tomorrow, Tonight's The Night! Get ready for chunky, down-and-dirty guitars throughout.

Lyrics

Tonight's the night! We're gonna finish everything
we've started. We're gonna blow off steam.
There's no time for the broken-hearted.
We're gonna live the dream.
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!

Tonight's the night! You're gonna sweat
like there's no tomorrow. You're gonna
feel the thrill. You've got to go where the
music drives you. The band is gonna kill.
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!

Tonight's The Night! Feel the rhythm down
deep inside you. Ya hear the screamin' guitar.
Let your body sensation guide you.
You're gonna be a star.
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!
Tonight's The Night! Tonight's The Night!
