"Into the Night" is the first single from Santana's 2007 compilation album, Ultimate Santana. The track features Chad Kroeger from Nickelback. It has received a considerable amount of airplay on VH1. Dania Ramirez of Heroes stars in the music video. The song has peaked at #26 in the United States and #4 in Australia.

The music video features a man (Freddy Rodriguez of Ugly Betty and Six Feet Under) about to jump off a roof when he sees a Colombian girl (Dania Ramirez of Heroes) dancing. He falls for her immediately and starts to follow her. Eventually he follows her to a club where he watches her dance, and at the end they dance together. Meanwhile, Kroeger and Santana play on the roof of the building. The video seems to integrate both the Hispanic and North American cultures, as a symbol of the two cultures coming together in the song itself.

"Into The Night" was a crossover hit as it peaked at #26 on the Billboard Hot 100, Santana's last top 40 hit in U.S.A. In Canada it was an even bigger hit, due to its qualifying as Canadian Content. It peaked at #2 for 3 consecutive weeks on the Canadian Hot 100. It also reached #4 in Australia. Heard through the 2007 film Live Free or Die Hard, "Into the Night" made a smash hit debut in the film industry.
