Writing and recording

The song was produced by Mutt Lange and Bryan Adams and was recorded by Nigel Green at Battery Studios, London, and by Ken Lomas at Warehouse Studios, Vancouver.[1] It was mixed by Bob Clearmountain at Mayfair Studios, London.[1]

Vallance's involvement was minimal when "There Will Never Be Another Tonight" was written and recorded,[1] although it was actually written in 1988 or '89 by both Adams and Vallance.[1] The demo got the title "Buddy Holly Idea" since it is vaguely reminiscent of the Buddy Holly song "Peggy Sue".[1] Lange and Adams turned the demo into a song.[1]

Chart performance

"There Will Never Be Another Tonight" was officially released to US radio on November 10, 1991. The song reached the top forty on the Billboard Hot 100, and the following week it debuted on the mainstream rock tracks at 6. In Canada it would chart on their official RPM singles chart at number two and became the first single from the album to not peak at number one.

The song was released in Australia, Europe and New Zealand in 1991. "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" (Waking Up the Neighbours' first single) and "Can't Stop This Thing We Started" reached the UK top five. "There Will Never Be Another Tonight" continued the trend of lower-charting singles when it debuted and peaked at number 31 on the UK Singles Chart. Although "There Will Never Be Another Tonight" reached the top twenty in Ireland, it was a moderate top thirty success in the Netherlands and the top thirty in Australia and Sweden.
