Because the Night
"Because the Night" is a song written by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith that was first released in 1978 as a single off the Patti Smith Group album ''Easter''. It rose to #13 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart, as well as #5 in the United Kingdom, and helped propel sales of ''Easter'' to mainstream success—even as Smith was deciding to retire from a life of constant touring. In 1987, the song was ranked #116 on ''NME'' magazine's list of "The Top 150 Singles of All Time". It remains one of the best known songs of Smith's catalog.
==History==
The song was originally recorded by Bruce Springsteen during sessions for his ''Darkness on the Edge of Town'' album. He was not satisfied with it and later declared he already knew he wasn't going to finish it since it was "a() love song";〔''Springsteen Song by Song: A Critical Look''. Clinton Heylin, Viking Books, 2012. ISBN 978-1-101-62603-0〕 the Patti Smith Group was working on ''Easter'' in the studio next door, with engineer/producer Jimmy Iovine working on both albums. Iovine gave Smith a tape of the song, she recast it, only retaining the chorus "Because the night belongs to lovers",〔''The Album: A Guide to Pop Music's Most Provocative, Influential, and Important Creations, Volume 1''. James E. Perone, Praeger, 2012, p. 146. ISBN 978-0-313-37906-2〕 and it was included on ''Easter'', becoming the first single released from that album.〔''Love Goes To Buildings On Fire. Five Years in New York That Changed Music Forever''. Will Hermes, Faber & Faber, 2011, p. 267. ISBN 978-0-374-53354-0〕 Though it was never released on any of Springsteen's studio albums, in concert beginning with his Darkness Tour Springsteen would often perform the song with his own lyrics. The song was first performed live at a Patti Smith concert at CBGB's in New York City on December 30, 1977, with Springsteen joining on vocals and guitar.〔''Love Goes To Buildings On Fire. Five Years in New York That Changed Music Forever''. Will Hermes, Faber & Faber, 2011, p. 280. ISBN 978-0-374-53354-0〕 The only two commercially released recordings of a Springsteen version of the song were in the 1986 box set ''Live/1975–85'', where Smith was listed as co-writer; and the 2010 compilation album ''The Promise'' (using the original recording from the ''Darkness on the Edge of Town'' sessions, but using Smith's lyrics).
