"Wonderful Night" is a song by English big beat musician Fatboy Slim, released as a single from his album Palookaville. It features Lateef the Truth Speaker on the vocal track. The song is often played at Staples Center immediately after Los Angeles Clippers home wins and at Madison Square Garden during the second half of New York Knicks games. A shortened version of the song also appears on the video game Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2. The song was edited for radio due to the brief coarse language used in the middle of the song.
The song garnered mostly positive reviews from music critics. David Jeffries of Allmusic felt the song was one of the highlights of the album.Pitchfork's Johnny Loftus called the song's rhythm "concise," also praising Lateef's performance.Rolling Stone's review of "Palookaville" called the song "groovy."
A music video for the song was released; it features tuxedo-clad dancers in and around an old-fashioned casino.
The song featured in the children's films Flushed Away and Robots.
