"This Is Your Night" is a song recorded by the Dutch-German artist Amber. It was released in May 1996 as the lead single from the album of the same name. The song had a great success in many countries, particularly in Australia, Lebanon, Belgium, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, and the United States where it charted in the top 40. It gained prominence after appearing in the 1998 American comedy film, A Night at the Roxbury. In the United States pop charts, This Is Your Night wound up only being in the 1996 Year-end chart, although peaking just over number 25 in 1997.

Trivia
- In January of 1996, a promotional version of this track was released to select Rhythmic Top 40 / dance radio stations in New York and Chicago. This version, similar in style to that of Real McCoy's "Run Away," received minimal airplay before being replaced entirely with the now known "Original Edit," and was never released on any album or single.
