What's the best "Tonight"?

And here's voting for The Raspberries.

Iggy Pop wrote (and performed) the "Tonight" that Bowie covers with Tina Turner on Tonight.

It's OK, but I am listing the performers, not the writers here :)

"I'll be over Tonight!" k-ching ching tish!

TONIGHT
(Roy Wood)

The Move

Also recorded by: The New Seekers

That's the road
it's over there
and leading down to nowhere.
This is the age when you're allowed
to have your own care
if you will have some pride to plan
your life ahead instead of waiting
'til you're old in your bed.

I'll be over tonight
if you say you might
I'll be over tonight
indeed to put you right.

well I know what you wrote
on your overcoat
but don't want to take it too far
oh I think you won't
but I know that you don't
you always say that you are

I'm so used to waiting that's entirely
your affair child don't feel restricted
by the weightless views you're given

if you will have some pride to fight
and front ahead
instead of saving
'til your young heart is dead.

I'll be over tonight...

Never let the riches that may ever be within you

so self concerned with all the love
that you have been through

if you will have some pride to plan
your life ahead instead of waiting
'til you're old in your bed.

It's a song about buying health insurance.

Iguana Iggy!

the avalanches

Iggy Pop wrote (and performed) the "Tonight" that Bowie covers with Tina Turner on Tonight.

It's a Pop/Bowie composition, to be exact.

New Kids On The Block

oh i thought it wasn't there

i like 'Tonight (x3)' by Genesis

Basement Jaxx one is OK

Iggy also performs the song on the album "Lust For Life".

If TV On The Radio were an option, I'd vote for them.

you forgot the soft boys!!

also supergrass but i wouldn't vote for that

raspberries, without question.

MC5 write-in

Low write-in

THE SOFT BOYS

Afghan Whigs write-in.

yeah, one more write in for the soft boys.

new kids for the win, that song is CRAZY

Geir, you forgot Nick Lowe. Also covered by Lene Lovich.

Good list, though.

Must also protest no Iggy, though.

Ned to thread.

NKOTB by a country mile.

*trumpet fanfares in head*

new kids for the win, that song is CRAZY

OTM, and an awesome karaoke jam, trust me.

Remember when we said, girl, please dont go,
And how Id be loving you forever,
Taught you bout hangin tough as long as you got the right stuff,
Didnt we, girls, ooh, didnt we, girls, aah?

Well, I guess, its a brandnew day after all
Every time we hear the curtain call,
See the girls with the curls in the hair,
The buttons and the pins and the loud fanfares.
Tonight, tonight.

Remember when we traveled round the world,
There were a lot of people and girls,
Fan mail from everywhere showed us how you care,
Didnt it, girls, ooh, didnt it, girls, aah?

Well, I guess...

(spoken:) sounds good, hey fellas, lets do it, here we go.
La-la-la-la-la-la tonight, la-la-la-la-la-la tonight.
Tonight, tonight (repeat & fade)

There were a lot of people

and girls

Everything will be all right tonight
Everything will be all right tonight
No one moves
No one talks
No one thinks
No one walks
Tonight
Tonight

OH SHIT FORGET IGGY I ALMOST FORGOT MY FAVORITE TONIGHT:

MC5 seconded!

"Tonight" by New Kids is the best song they ever did, but there are considerably better "Tonight"s anyway.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

MC5 thirdededed.

OMFG where is the love for Patrik Fitzgerald?

You forgot Richard Hawley's Tonight, from Cole's Corner. It's better than every "Tonight" song listed in the poll.

I voted for Shirley Bassey, assuming that's a version of the song from West Side Story.

DJ QUIK!!!

o wait no KEN LASZLO!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFwjTefo_bg

Damn! Should have included Ken Laszlo (but it was obviously not on everyhit.com)

It's obviously the most used songtitle for rather unremarkable songs.

I vote for Leonard Bernstein.

"You look too young to know about romance" is such a smooth pick-up line. I'm going with the Raspberries.

1 vote for Sibylle Baier

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Hmmm. Now that Beatles-pastiche was the best NKOTB track ever, but still, depressing to see that über-boyband winning a poll.....

The correct answer was Nancy Wilson (especially as sampled by The Avalanches), but I missed this poll completely.

YEAH!!!

JUSTICCCE

Righteous!

The chorus of "Tonight" by New Kids On The Block is really fucking annoying.

All of the Raspberries "Tonight" is way awesome.

no mc5 no credibility maaaaan
