Musically, "Night of Your Life" is an uptempo pop and future-soul song, with lyrics that feature Hudson demanding to be worshiped like a queen. Music critics positively reviewed the song, praising Hudson's vocal performance and noting it as one of the standout tracks from Nothing but the Beat. Critics also compared the song to Rihanna's "Only Girl (In the World)" (2010). Commercially, "Night of Your Life" reached the top 10 in Austria and Norway, and the top 20 in Denmark, Finland, Germany and Spain.

"Night of Your Life" was written by Cristyle Johnson, Anthony Preston, David Guetta and Giorgio Tuinfort, whilst production of the song was helmed by Guetta and Tuinfort. In an interview with Akshay Bhansali of MTV News, Guetta revealed that he did not know Hudson before collaborating on the song, saying, "I had heard her voice [before] and I fell in love with it. It's a difficult song. You need a really big voice to be able to perform that song. I was like, 'Whoa!' She obviously has an amazing voice, and I think it was a really interesting exercise for her and for me." Guetta further explained that when he collaborates with artists, he likes to "take them out of their boxes", and creating a dance record with Hudson was "really exciting" for him. On working with Hudson, he said, "She is beautiful in every way: as a person, as a singer, as a human being. She delivered [the song] like crazy." "Night of Your Life" was released for digital download on August 22, 2011, as the third and final promotional single from the album, as part of the iTunes Store's countdown to the album's release.
