"Dark Is the Night for All" is a song by A-ha, the first single from the album Memorial Beach.

The song, like the entire Memorial Beach album, was recorded at Prince's Paisely Park studios. There are two versions of the music video; the first version was banned due to disturbing scenes, including Morten Harket's face ripping through the skin of his abdomen. The second version features more scenes of the band. Overall, the video shows people in various forms of bondage and reflects the dark time A-ha was going through at the time. This was also the last A-ha single to be released in the United States.
