Rod Stewart – Tonight’s The Night [Gonna Be Alright]

Tonight’s The Night (Gonna Be Alright) – is a title from the album A Night On The Town from 1976. Charted #1 in USA and #5 in UK.
Rod Stewart’s girlfriend at the time, the Swedish actress Britt Ekland, sings the French part at the end of this song.

Britt Ekland starred in the video as the object of Stewart’s seduction, although we never see her face in the clip. the video is very literal, as we see the couple go upstairs and start the lovemaking process.

Like many of Stewart’s early videos, it was directed by Bruce Gowers. Stewart was an early adopter to music video; he made many of them in the ’70s that were broadcast on various programs throughout Europe, often truncated as promotional clips. When MTV went on the air in 1981, Stewart got a lot of airtime because they had more videos from him than from any other artist.

Piesa a fost înregistrată în 1976 pentru albumul A Night on the Town. La 13 Noiembrie 1976 a ajuns pe locul #1 la Billboard unde a rămas până la 8 Ianuarie 1977. În melodie se poate auzi și prietena lui de la aceea vreme, Britt Ekland, care are o scurtă parte în franceză.
Piesa este destul de explicită, de aceea multe stații de radio au “scurtat” sfârșitul în 1976.

Versuri:
Stay away from my window
Stay away from my back door too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind

Kick off your shoes and sit right down
Loosen off that pretty French gown
Let me pour you a good long drink
Ooh baby don’t you hesitate ’cause

Tonight’s the night
It’s gonna be alright
‘Cause I love you girl
Ain’t nobody gonna stop us now

Come on angel my heart’s on fire
Don’t deny your man’s desire
You’d be a fool to stop this tide
Spread your wings and let me come inside ’cause
