Cars, The - It's Not The Night Lyrics
it's not the night
for fooling
it's not the night
for crazy eyes
i get the feeling
i get the feeling
you're giving it all away
but i know
i know you take it well
and for you
for you i always fell
it's not the night
for sweet revenge
it's not the night
the time is right
to take it out
the time is right for tango
i get the feeling
you're running out
before your last fandango
i get the feeling
you're the spark
that's dancing in the dark
i get the feeling
you're the one
rushing on the run

Cars, The It's Not The Night Comments
Love you 😘 Benjamin. His songs would be hits now in 2020
Was this not released as a single? This is so good!
🙃🙂🙃🤨🙃😶🙃😵🙃🤪
Goodbye, Ric. Rest now.
A giant part of my 80s memory. Thanks Ric
Favorite song from my favorite band RIP Ric
Time is right to tango 🕊💗🎸😭RIP
RIP Ric
Mutt Lange was a genius of a producer.Def Leppard's Pyromania and Heartbeat City are two of my very favorite albums from the period.When I first heard Heartbeat City I was like holy crap,it totally has a Pyromania vibe to it,especially on this song.Both are great albums!
Ric & Benjamin at their finest !
& Greg, Elliot & David......The Cars !!!
35th anniversary of this album release. Love this song and Benjamin's voice!!💖
Damn, this song brings back memories. Hearing this makes it seem like the summer of 1984 all over again. What a summer it was!!!
RIP Benjamin. You gave us some of the unforgettable melodies
As a lead vocalist this song is one of my favorite songs to sing....I mean outta my mind TOP 5 songs...dig that
Oh man, I hadn't heard this song in close to 20 years! I forgot it existed - such a nice surprise!
💕❤️👸🏻it’s not the nite 👍🏾
Shared lead vocals, Ben Orr for most but Ric Ocasek for some too ("But I know, I know you take it well; And for you, for you I always fell...").
Amazing band without any records only live playing
I recall my old 80's friends disliking the "commercial" sound of thus album. Actually that is John "Mutt" Flange and his syrupy microphone choral sound. This was way overdone in some 1980's albums, but fine here. Orr and Okasek shine as singers. Elliott Easton is great in ornamenting his guitar solos with nuanced timbre changes, melodic composition, and artful octave displacement. Hawkes and Mutt produce great synth tracks. And Robinson's drum parts, which sound a little sequenced in the style of 1984, hit the mark. So this is a great albeit slick album. And the songs are stirring. For all its musicality what's not to like?
I agree with what you said about the "microphone choral sound" that Mutt Lange put (among other things) on every band/artist he produced, especially Def Leppard and their overproduced sound. I love DL, but those choral parts always make me cringe. Here are luckly restrained.
There are certain Car songs I can listen to again.And again This is One
Amazing ...........
Cranked up on the cassette deck in your girlfriend's Fiero , out late on a school night.....
An under appreciated Cars song - the texturing is simlpy awesome.
True True .
This tune and Stranger eyes have a similar vibe. More rock based than the other songs on the Heartbeat City album 😈
It's not the night
For foolin'
It's not the night
For crazy eyes
I get the feelin'
You want to stay
I get the feelin'
You're givin' it all away
But I know
I know you take it well
And for you
For you I always fell
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For, for sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
The time is right
To take it out
The time is right to tango
Got a feelin'
You're runnin' out
Before your last fandango
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For sweet, sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
It's not the night
For sticky boots ?
It's not the night
For tango
I get the feelin'
You're the spark
That's dancin' in the dark
I get the feelin'
You're the one
A rushin' on the run
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
You're lookin' for sweet, sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
Night to end
It's not the night
Ashley Nguyen "sticky boots" is actually "sweet revenge" 😂
it's not the night
for fooling
it's not the night
for crazy eyes
i get the feeling
you want to stay
i get the feeling
you're giving it all away
but i know
i know you take it well
and for you
for you i always fell
it's not the night
for sweet revenge
it's not the night
to end
the time is right
to take it out
the time is right for tango
i get the feeling
you're running out
before your last fandango
i get the feeling
you're the spark
that's dancing in the dark
i get the feeling
you're the one
rushing on the run
good stuff
RIP Benjamin Orr What a voice...
to David to Jeffrey to Charlie it's not the night for sweet revenge
I love this song as much as any of their hits. This entire album was first rate!
OMG SO STUNNING AND AWESOME SOUND
I guess these guy's were the American Beatles.
Someday they will be recognized for their true greatness.
Beatles can't hold a candle to them. Cars are much matured n explosive not just baby stuff like the over rated Beatles.
kick ass song
in some parts it sounds like def leppard in its good times
RAUL GARCIA - there's a reason for that. This album was produced by Mutt Lange, the same guy who produced Def Leppard's biggest albums.
Thanks for that bit of.Cars trivia!!! I love Def Leopard too!!!
Yeah..benjamin orr does sounds like joe elliot..haha..but u r correct. It does
As someone said before, it was because they had the same producer. Mutt Lange produced Def Leppard's Pyromania in 1983, so he borrowed some "leppardian" sounds to The Cars.
I remember seeing this Concert in 1984. I will never forget that night. This song will always be one of my favorites. RIP Benjamin Orr.
that and the Police Sychronicity tours...two of the best shows I have ever seen. Totally agree with you!
Bueno yo estoy acá por el tio Damien Beer :'v

I love all the songs where Benjamin Orr was vocalist in the Cars.
I've been a fan ever since I heard this album when it came out and somehow, I never realized Ben did (most of) the vocals on this song. Always thought it was Ric.
gav240z hell yeah He put somthing special into what the cars had that made them so much better then any other band and the fact that theres two Awesome front men that sang in the same pitchs and tone made it almost 1 singer
Ben was a superb singer. He was strong in all of the ranges he sang in. He could sound like two different people within the same song.
I also thought a lot of the songs he sang on were Ric. Mostly because, until "Drive", most of their videos were of songs Ric sang lead on. I never realized Ben and Ric split the lead vocals nearly 50/50 until recently. And on their biggest hits, Ben sang a little more than half.
Not really, Pink Floyd already experimented with dubstep on The Wall in 1979...
Max van der Gulik fuck pink floyd, gay band
The debut is their best album by far, this album and candy-o are tied for second place for me.
beautiful song
one of my favorite songs
It's the world's first ever dubstep wobble at 0:32!!
In 1984 I completely wore out this cassette tape in my Walkman!!
I wore this album out back then, remember poppin that cassette out flippin it over and playing it over and over again. Great memories !
DelawareDuff - me too. Excellent driving music.
@James Weldon 1st cassette tape in my orange super beetle, then in my datsun B210.......wore it out.... Those were the days
I've always wanted to see The Car's, & Gary Numan in concert (back in the day) That would have been the BOMB
They got in and out and left us a message in 3:58 seconds...
Love the cars forever
Thanks for the high quality audio! The best song of Cars! Totally beautiful and awesome.
This is my favorite album but this is the song I remember more than any other but, Stranger eyes as always been attributed to who I am! I love this band and will wish they had continued to build the momentum they had started but still they are the ones that always thrill me! 80's baby but I like the unique! Im strange!
