"Even the Nights Are Better" is a 1982 song by the British/Australian soft rock duo Air Supply, released on their seventh studio album Now and Forever (1982) as the album's first single. It first charted in the United States on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it spent four weeks at No. 1 in July and August. This was Air Supply's third song to reach the summit on this chart.[2] It also reached No. 1 on the Canadian AC chart.[3]

In September 1982, the song reached its peak position of No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the group's seventh consecutive top five hit on the US pop chart. However the song is in the record books for how quickly it fell off the top 40. The song slipped to six. Then on the issue dated September 25, 1982, the song fell to 42. It held the record for highest drop from the top 40 for thirty years.[4]

In the United Kingdom, where the group did not enjoy the same amount of success as they did in Australia and the US, the song missed the top 40 by four places, reaching No. 44 on the UK Singles Chart. It is their second highest charting single in the UK, after their No. 11 hit with "All Out of Love" in 1980.

Transcription

Background

This song is written from the perspective of a man who had lost a significant other at the song's beginning, before the rest of the song's lyrics tell a much happier story from the singer's perspective of life with someone new, who had the same feelings of loneliness as the lyricist.[5]

Reception

Billboard said that "The deliberate solo vocal, delicate piano and string section interplay and chorus/bridge harmonies are direct links to [Air Supply's] past hits."[6]

Music video

The video for "Even the Nights Are Better" was filmed in and around the boardwalk, beach, and amusement area of Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York.
