"Dusk Till Dawn" is a song by New Zealand recording artist Ladyhawke, released on 15 September 2008 in the United Kingdom as the third single from her self-titled debut album, Ladyhawke. It was co-written by Phillipa Brown (aka Ladyhawke), Pascal Gabriel, Alex Gray and Hannah Robinson, and produced by Gabriel. The song was featured on the third episode of Gossip Girl, "Poison Ivy", originally aired 3 October 2007.

According to co-writer Hannah Robinson, "Dusk Till Dawn" was written at the same session as "My Delirium", their first and only together. The lyrics came about from brainstorming the ideas they had. At the time Ladyhawke had just landed off a flight from New Zealand and was feeling very jet-lagged.

Mike Orme wrote for Pitchfork Media that "Dusk Till Dawn" "marches along to the beat of both the urban white chic of Gwen Stefani and the coke-nosed disco rock of Franz Ferdinand." Emily Tartanella of PopMatters described the song as a "hybrid between Franz Ferdinand and Madonna", and Ben Norman of About.com stated that it "sounds like a (better) Ting Tings number."

The single debuted at number seventy-eight on the UK Singles Chart for the issue dated 21 September 2008, spending only one week on the chart.

The video opens with Ladyhawke in a bed with a man. She looks out of the window at a ghost, next she runs downstairs, where she starts to get haunted by monsters. She then gets circled by monsters, each wearing a mask with a corresponding T-shirt. She tries to awake her boyfriend, but as it fails, she tries to call someone but is tracked down by the monsters and runs away. She then starts to dance with the monsters. She then wakes up and pulls the cover off her boyfriend and realizes in fear that he is dead. She goes into the bathroom, washes her hands and then leans down and when she arises she has a mask which resembles her face and a T-shirt which says "Ladyhawke", she then starts dancing again. The video finishes when she wakes up in the daytime.
