OT: Any Songs Involving The Night - Dreams, Sleeping, the Stars, etc.

Beautiful stuff by Tom Waits:

And now the sun's coming up
I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade......

 
Great stuff by Asleep at the Wheel:

I saw miles and miles of Texas
All the stars up in the sky....

I can’t find that I’ve posted this one (shame on me). Gods, I love Jimmy Cliff.

You and the Night and the Music,

Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones. 1975

 

Portions of the video were filmed in Portland CT along the CT River. The scenes of Billy and the back up singers in black suits on the train bridge and the Come on Over sign (which faces Middletown) were.

Ten pages. That's a lot of night music without A Little Night Music, Moonlight Sonata, or Clair de Lune. Not even a Nessun Dorma. Such a disappointment. I'm tempted to set the Queen of the Night on yez. But don't worry, I won't.
 
Benny Goodman Orchestra,
Helen Ward vocal

WHAT A LITTLE MOONLIGHT CAN DO



Bought this album in 1958. Note Texaco, the sponsor of the Swing Into Spring TV special featuring the Goodman band.

I missed this thread when I was out of town. Just love this song. Probably the best ending theme song I ever heard.

 
This classic doesn't have night in the title or anything, but it just screams "night" to me:
