"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 21st entry on this chart, and spent 12 weeks there. The song was even more successful on Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it stayed for 17 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]
