"Another Night" is a famous hit single by the popular 1990s eurodance act known as MC Sar & The Real McCoy (aka Real McCoy).

Another Night was originally released in Europe in the Summer of 1993. The success of the single in Europe and Canada later lead to the production of the second album from MC Sar & The Real McCoy titled "Space Invaders." When Clive Davis of Arista Records took notice of the major success of "Another Night" and "Space Invaders" in 1994, he made a deal with Hansa Records to bring MC Sar & The Real McCoy to the U.S. market. As a result, the group name was shortened to Real McCoy and the single "Another Night" became the lead single to the 1995 re-release of the "Space Invaders" album under a new title. For the 1995 re-release, the album was renamed "Another Night.' Additional songs not heard on the "Space Invaders" version of the album were included on the U.S. re-release.

The single version of "Another Night" reached No.18 in Germany, No.3 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the U.S. during the holiday season of 1994-1995, number two on the UK Singles Chart and number one on the Australian ARIA Chart. In the U.S., the single was certified Platinum by the RIAA, spent 40 weeks in the Top 40, and became the best-selling single by a German act in U.S. history. It was produced by the Berman Brothers and AxelFF (Axel Wernecke) at the Boogie Park Studios Hamburg. It was mixed by Andreas "Boogieman" Herbig.

"Another Night" was inspired by Roni Griffith's "Desire", the Coca-Cola theme tune and "More and More" by Captain Hollywood Project.

In Billboard Magazine's Top 100 songs of the first 50 years of the Hot 100, "Another Night" was ranked at number 91. As a number three hit, it is the lowest ranked song to be listed on this chart. The song also brought the group the distinction of having the longest run at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 (11 non-consecutive weeks).
