"All Night Long (All Night)" was a 1983 hit single for Lionel Richie. Taken from his second solo album Can't Slow Down, it combined Richie's soulful Commodores style with Caribbean influences and contains an old Jamaican chant. An accompanying music video was directed by former Monkee and TV video pioneer Michael Nesmith . According to an episode of Reading Rainbow in which Richie guest-starred, the song's theme is about a party that lasts all night long.
The Cheetah Girls song "Fuego" sampled parts from this song.
all night long was the third single released by Japanese J-Pop singer Ami Suzuki in November, 1998.
"All Night Long" is the third single from rapper Common's 1997 album One Day It'll All Make Sense. It features vocals from Erykah Badu and production from The Roots, and contains re-sung elements from "Don't Stop The Music" by Yarbrough and Peoples. The Brand New Heavies remixed it for the single's b-side and The 24 Hour Woman soundtrack.
"All Night Long" is an independent hip-hop single by Australian artist Joel Turner. It was released on February 24, 2007 and received moderate airplay on television and radio, with influential music show Video Hits screening it only once.
The song carries a party theme, and the accompanying video shows the performers and several female dancers against a backdrop of special effects. The raps are provided by Israel(an R&B singer and producer), Stan Bravo (an American-born rapper), and Turner’s cousin C4 (of the Modern Day Poets). Although the artist is credited as "Joel Turner featuring Israel, Stan Bravo and C4", Turner in fact only contributes to the chorus and ad-libs, along with a few beatbox sound effects. The track does not appear on any of Turner's albums, but a version of the song can be found on Stan Bravo's mixtape Get Accustomed.
"All Night Long" was released jointly by Turner’s former record company Rajon and his current label Hardwax. Despite topping the independent charts, the song debuted at #38 on the ARIA charts and is Turner’s lowest charting single to date. It is thought that the lack of interest in the track was due to Turner having such a small role on it.
