"Give Me All Night" is the 2nd single from Carly Simon's 1987 album Coming Around Again. The song was co-written by Simon with Gerard McMahon and produced by Paul Samwell-Smith.[1] An accompanying music video was filmed on Martha's Vineyard and featured drummer Rick Marotta.

The song is one of Simon's biggest latter period AC hits, and as a result is included on multiple compilations of her work, which include 1995's 3-disc box set Clouds in My Coffee, the UK import The Very Best of Carly Simon: Nobody Does It Better, the 2-disc retrospective Anthology, 2004's single disc Reflections: Carly Simon's Greatest Hits, and 2014's Playlist: The Very Best of Carly Simon.

The song peaked at #61 on the Billboard Hot 100,[2] becoming Simon's twenty-first entry on this chart, and spent twelve weeks there. The song was even more successful on Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it stayed for seventeen weeks and peaked at #5.[2] The song was a minor hit in Canada, and charted at #87.[3] It also charted in South Africa, peaking at #14.[4]
