Tonight's The Kind Of Night (3:10)

Cover of Last Night On Earth

From Last Night On Earth and 1 other release

The Tonight’s The Kind of Night Songfacts reports that the song is an anthem of escape, although the destination is kept deliberately unspecific. Charlie Fink told The Daily Telegraph: “When I was 18, I drove across the States for three months, playing my guitar at open-mic nights. I love that feeling of being lost for days and just bearing straight on down. It can be hard to transpose that romantic, Springsteen idea to England, because in America you can get in a car and drive into huge stretches of nothing, going nowhere. In England, you get on the motorway, drive for three hours and you’re in Leeds or Sheffield. But the landscape outside is irrelevant. Sometimes just a journey from suburbia to the centre of town can be as exciting and potentially life-changing as driving off into the great unknown.”

There's a boy with his head pressed up to the window
Of a bus headed out of town
His breath on the glass, he draws with his finger
Map of the roads they go down
