It was written by Steve Torch, Graham Stack, Mark Taylor, and Brian Rawling. The song was produced by Stack and Taylor. The song is a dance-pop song that talks about special moments at night time. The song employs elements of house and disco music, and was originally performed Swedish singer Pandora until giving it to Minogue. It was released as the second single from the album on 11 September 2000 by Parlophone. Critical reception towards "On a Night Like This" were positive; many critics highlighted it as an album standout and praised the production. In Australia, the song became her seventh single to reach the top position. The song reached number two on the UK Singles Chart. The single also charted inside the top forty in Finland, New Zealand, Ireland, and Sweden. A music video for "On a Night Like This" was directed by Douglas Avery and was envisioned as a tribute to Martin Scorsese's 1995 crime drama movie Casino. It features Minogue in Monte Carlo, playing at a casino and at her home. The song was performed live by Minogue on several concert tours, including her On a Night Like This Tour, KylieX2008, Aphrodite: Les Folies Tour, Kiss Me Once Tour and her European mini-tour Kylie Summer 2015. ==Background== Kylie Minogue's track "On a Night Like This" appears on her seventh studio album ''Light Years'' (September 2000). She had signed a three-album deal with British dance label, Deconstruction Records in 1992 and released her first album, ''Kylie Minogue'', through that label in September 1994. It received mixed reception from music critics, peaking at number three in Australia and number four in the United Kingdom. In November 1997, Minogue released her sixth studio album ''Impossible Princess''. It became the first album on which Minogue had partial creative control on songwriting and composing.〔 The album received mixed reviews, many who commended its experimental and adventurous nature, while criticism was primarily directed towards her image and the album's composition. The album peaked at four on the ARIA Albums Chart and number one on the Australian Music Report chart in January 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Impossible Princess )〕 ''Impossible Princess'' peaked at ten on the UK Albums Chart, her lowest charting studio album to date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.officialcharts.com/search/albums/Kylie%20Minogue/ )〕 In late 1999, Minogue signed a contract with British label Parlophone. Parlophone wanted to re-establish Minogue as the pop artist they felt she essentially was, but that had been lost. The lead single from her seventh album, "Spinning Around", received critical acclaim from music critics who highlighted it as an album standout. The song reached number one in both Australia and the UK, alongside top ten entries in New Zealand and Ireland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.officialcharts.com/charts/singles-chart/20000625/7501 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「On a Night Like This」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
