Soundtrack of Your Life Entry #27 Even The Nights Are Better

Day 27 of "The Soundtrack of Your Life"  challenge.

Ok our next song up is...

Even The Nights Are Better by Air Supply

This is one of my favorites on my list. I am a big fan of 80s easy listening music and this is a sweet one. It is a heavily romantic piece. It is most light with softer music but has some great uses of crescendos in the chorus.

The two best segments of the song are the chorus and the riff at 2:43. 80's arrangements tend to make extremely good uses of refrain where you'll hear the same lines repeated several times in this case...

"Even the nights are better.
Now that we're here together
Even the nights are better
Since I found you"

It will play a few times in the song especially towards the end where it will fade out to complete the song. It is a great trick as it makes the important part of the song memorable and easy to sing along with.

The anime used in this song is Onegai Sensei aka Please Teacher. I haven't gotten a chance to watch this anime myself but the scenes chosen for the AMV match the romantic intensity of the song.
